An urban legend recently appeared in “Diablo IV” that left players dumbfounded. Many players have discovered that even though their character’s resistance, defense, and shield are all fine, they still die suddenly without warning. After crazy testing by the community, everyone pointed the finger at a legendary piece of equipment, Wendigo Brand, and even suspected that this ring was not strengthening the character at all, but secretly killing players! Seeing that the discussion is getting more heated, Blizzard finally came forward to confirm that the team has begun investigating the issue.
Is this the ring that players have identified as the “murderer”?
The original effect of Wendigo Brand is to continuously increase the character’s damage and maximum health by accumulating layers as it kills enemies. Therefore, it is a core equipment favored by many genres. However, recently, a large number of players have discovered that as long as the number of layers is high, the character may die suddenly without receiving any obvious attack. Some people even posted a death record. The cause of death column only showed a “!”, and they had no idea how they died. As more and more cases emerged, the community began to suspect that there was something wrong with the ring’s effect.
Blizzard responded: An investigation has really begun!
In the face of a large number of reports from players, Blizzard community manager Marcoose responded on the official forum that the team has received relevant reports and is currently investigating the problem and developing a correction plan. Many players joked that Blizzard was like the Fellowship in “Lord of the Rings” this time, collectively tracking down the secrets hidden in this “problem ring”.
The official correction time has not yet been announced, but if you have been dying suddenly for no reason recently, and you happen to be wearing Wendigo Brand, it may be safer to put it in storage for the time being than to continue testing it with your life.
