Tldr: Huge exp buff for completing nightmare-dungeos and enemies inside. Maybe the new meta for exp. Small buffs across the board.

    Leveled from 92 to 93 doing Nightmare dungeons about as quick as I did in the mid 70s felt like. Substantial buff to the XP but removing the travel time might be even bigger. Great changes for that part of the game.

      I was able to complete it by changing world tier to tier 1.

      I had read stuff about making sure the event outside isn’t active but that didn’t seem to make a difference. Switched to tier 1 and it was good. Or I guess try a different tier if you’re currently playing on tier 1.

      If you go into the cave and the wall at the back is attackable before you talk with the NPCs, then it’s still bugged. The wall should not become attackable until after she gives her speech.

      I had that bugged for a while. Just keep checking back on it. I checked maybe 4 or 5 times before finally the guys started moving and I could finish that quest.

    So I can open my weekly world boss cache that used to require lv 80 now… But should I wait for lv 80 to get potentially better ilv/gear??

        Also in a twist of fate I got my unique permanent wherebear chest right before hitting 80 in a nightmare dungeon, lol for me.

        My first nightmare I had butcher spawn in the first room after first trash pull… And he wiped me sigh I got revenge after leveling some glyphs up at least.

      Don’t have any proof/confirmation of this, but if it’s consistent with other Blizzard games, the loot is determined at the time of drop rather than time of open, so waiting wouldn’t be of any advantage.

      idk but the only thing i can say, there is an affix breakpoint system. You have the best affix range starting at power level 725… check https://diablo4.cc/us/Affix for your pleasure^^ The only difference will be the base armor/dmg stat which will increase linear till level 90.

    Nightmare dungeons give sufficient exp now! Has anyone experienced any new builds stemming from all the buffs?

    I just got my unique Wherebear Chest and Earth Magic=Wherebear helm and this update was just in time for me.

    As passives from shape shifting effects finally are applying/proccing correctly with permanent Wherebear form now yay.

    I’m really loving the changes. I hope the dev team keep focusing on buffs like they’ve stated. Really enjoying the game and excited to see the seasonal content.

    Ive been ripping nightmare dungeons for the past three hours and got from 93 to halfway to 97. The EXP buff is insane!
