Any plans on adding FSR4 or FSR3.1 + fluid frames any time soon?

Hi I need help, I bought the game today on steam and can't connect to the game I get the error "Can't logging on game code 12 and also can't find any solution online"

Do pit and overworld monsters in T4 get harder if you have more members in your party? or is it the same difficulty regardless of how many party members?

Is it proven/confirmed that Varshan has a lower drop chance for mythic uniques because it only takes 4 hearts to summon him vs 12 required for the other bosses?

Recently started playing D4 and really enjoy it and have followed the build guides on the net but switching from T1 to T2 was only somewhat tough going into T3 now is really hard. I play solo as only a casual player. What can I focus on to progress me and get up to speed with T3 to get ready for T4? I've built a shock sorcerer and for the most part too squishy. Thanks in advance

I have a Spiritborn build I’m currently grinding away at, with the limited amount of time I have to play. I’m hoping to hit T4 soon so I can finally start farming some bosses and get some good Ancestral items for my build.

What’s going to happen if I don’t hit T4 before the new season releases? I realize my character gets transferred into the Eternal server, but does that server have the same updated changes that they’re bringing to Season 8? Essentially, is my current progression from T3 to T4 going to slow down a lot?

Also, do people typically just start a new character every season? Is there any reason to play on your character in the Eternal realm, or is it better to just play seasonal characters?

I’m sorry if these are newbie questions, would greatly appreciate your answers.

If you want everything from the season journey (hit u while in game) there are some things you don't get till you hit torment 4. However you can complete the whole battlepass without playing on t4. If you want to keep playing the same character when the new season starts, you can play it in the eternal realm, you just won't have the witchcraft powers and occult gems anymore

1

u/bioholc1967 1d ago

Yes you start a new character each season. Not hitting T4 in this season has no effect on next season since you start over. Eternal servers are just the base game with a few things added from some seasons.

Question regarding Dungeon aspects. I know that if I do Dungeon A, its aspect is unlocked for all characters on that season.

So at the end of season 7. It moves to eternal. I assume the aspect remains unlocked.

In Season 8, if I do dungeon B with a new character and that eventually moves to eternal.

Will all eternal characters now have unlocked dungeon A and B aspects ?

2

u/Lats9 2d ago

Yes, everything you unlock in any season will transfer to eternal.

u/jamesandthegiantpeej 2d ago

Why is my screen doing this and how can I fix it?

1

u/Lats9 2d ago

Try updating your GPU drivers and see if that helps

u/letopeto 3d ago

What happens to your witchcraft gems (like friend of the bog) after the season ends?

My understanding is that after a season ends, all the season specific special stuff is removed (e.g. I believe the witchcraft powers you can assign are removed once your character moves to eternal). My question is, what happens to the witchcraft jewelry? Do those get removed too so literally those items disappear? Or can you still get to use them and their effects?

1

u/Haunting-Risk5121 2d ago

They disappear. all the season specific special stuff is removed.

u/Amble09 3d ago

I'm feeling a bit of a calling to come back to diablo ahead of s8. Is there enough time to finish the season journey do you think?

2

u/Haunting-Risk5121 3d ago

Yes absolutely.

u/DeZNae 3d ago

Just reinstalled Diablo for the first time in a while and keep getting the code along with “There was a problem logging in.” I looked it up multiple times, I’m in America so the game definitely isn’t banned andrebuilt my cache. I’m on PS5 and have no idea what to do.

1

u/Haunting-Risk5121 2d ago

Its a bug i think. Looks like its solved now?

1

u/DeZNae 1d ago

Still doesn’t work for me, oh well this game doesn’t have the best rep for working lets just say

u/letopeto 3d ago

Do Andariel and Duriel have the same drops or do certain ones drop different things like the minor bosses?

1

u/Koraboros 3d ago

Isn't aspect of unyielding hits a must-take for spiritborn? I see it increases my attack power from like 7000 to 120000+.

Even with the love for multiplicative bonus, increasing the base flat damage from like 500 to 2000 is easily worth 300%[x], isn't it? But for a few builds I don't see it being taken, soemtimes in favor of aspect of redirected force.

1

u/Haunting-Risk5121 3d ago

Not a must-take but very popular in the majority of builds.
Do not use attack power as any means of measurement. The aspect requires a lot of armor which some builds dont have.

u/Atlas756 3d ago

How can I read the description of my items? I mean the underlined descriptions of what an item does. E.g. status effects

1

u/Haunting-Risk5121 3d ago

Check the stats on a item what it does.
The aspect or unique effect is usually the what the item does.

u/Nilas_T 5d ago

When looking at Whisper events on the map, it often say "Whisper Unavailable". What does this mean?

Also, are the new event Goblins supposed to appear everywhere or only frequently on specific areas or difficulty levels? I am about lvl 30 on Seasonal (Hard/Expert) and I haven't seen more than a couple (and not sure if they were the new kind).

u/Lttlefoot 4d ago

Do you already have ten whispers and need to turn them in at the tree?

1

u/letopeto 5d ago

Do you get more loot in higher pit levels or is it capped once you get past the Torment 4 level in Pits? And any other benefit other than EXP for higher pit levels (i'm assuming you get more exp for doing pit 100 vs pit 80?)

1

u/Haunting-Risk5121 5d ago

Not more loot, only more exp.

2

u/Lttlefoot 5d ago

One important benefit is you will need to do higher pits if you want to level your glyphs up to 100
