Patch 1.5.1 brings more Aether to the Hellhordes – Patch Notes in German

earthpressnews

The upcoming patch 1.5.1 makes changes to the Hell Hordes in Diablo 4. This will allow you to farm more Aether. In addition, all players will receive compensation for missing loot.

The “Hell Hordes” is a new endgame activity in Diablo 4 that was introduced in Season 5. In the activity, you fight waves of monsters and collect “Burning Aether,” which you can then exchange for loot, mats, and gold. With patch 1.5.1, Blizzard is making a few changes.

The highlights from the patch:

  • The amount of Burning Aether is increased for various Infernal Gifts you choose between waves.
  • You can then also reuse the chest with gold.
  • All players will receive a chest with legendaries that are guaranteed to have “Greater Affixes” (GA) – this time for real. Previously, after patch 1.5.0, there was an error that the chest with “guaranteed GA items” in the Hell Hordes did not drop any GA items.
  • There are also a few bug fixes – including a bug that caused the “Tortured” version of the Beast in the Ice to drop the same amount of “Needle-Pierced Dolls” as the normal version.

    • When will patch 1.5.1 go live? According to Blizzard, the new patch 1.5.1 will go live on Tuesday, August 20, 2024. We expect it to be available around 7 p.m. The full German patch notes can be found on the second page of the article. This time they are not as extensive.

    More Aether in the Hell Hordes

    How do I get more ether? Blizzard is increasing the amount of Burning Aether you receive from Infernal Gifts. Infernal Gifts are the effects you choose between waves for subsequent waves – also known as “Blessings and Curses.”

    The following infernal gifts will be updated:

  • The Exalted Elite: The amount of Burning Aether is increased from +1 to +2.
  • The Rising Elite: The amount of Burning Aether is increased from +1 to +2.
  • The Unstoppable Elite: The amount of Burning Aether is increased from +1 to +2.
  • The Burning Rain: The amount of Burning Aether you receive at the end of a wave is increased from 1-3 to 3-9.

    • You can also reuse the chest with gold. One player recently exchanged all of his collected ether for gold and got a whopping 150 million gold from one run.

    The chests, which you can open for 60 Aether, were supposed to drop you “guaranteed” legendaries with “large affixes” (1.5x the size of normal affixes). That was not the case. As compensation, with patch 1.5.1, according to Blizzard, you will receive “a chest containing legendary items with guaranteed large affixes.”

    On the PTR (public test server), the Hell Hordes were still quite unpopular. Some players found that the activity was simply not fun. After the test, Blizzard tweaked and adjusted the Hell Hordes. Many players now seem to be happy.
