Diablo 4 Season 9's first major balance update is here, bringing major Barbarian buffs and increased rewards from The Pit, Nightmare dungeons, Legion events, and more.Season 9 brought permanent changes to Nightmare dungeons in the form of Horadric Strongrooms and new positive dungeon affixes, and update 2.3.1 looks to further fine-tune some of the rewards associated with those updates. As detailed in the patch notes, when doing a dungeon with the Horadric Materials Reserve affix, Horadric chests will now reward more salvage materials and Forgotten Souls. The Forgotten Wisdom affix, which grants bonus XP, has also been adjusted to make it so XP motes dropped by enemies will now split experience between party members instead of only granting experience to the player who picked it up. Additionally, the maximum number of motes that can spawn in a dungeon has significantly increased, while the frequency has been slightly reduced. Each mote grants more XP as well, though motes will no longer spawn from monsters summoned by other monsters or in Horadric Strongrooms.Continue Reading at GameSpot...
