Diablo 4 Season 5 is currently announced to be released on August 6, 2024, when Loot Reborn, which is praised by players as the best season so far, will end. It is said that Season 5 adds a lot of changes, which are not only crucial to the development of the game but also make the game more interesting than ever.

But as players, we want much less than this. If the following aspects are added to the game, it may greatly change the status quo. Season 5 can become a wonderful work for Diablo 4. So players, including me, have great expectations for it.

1) Change The Way Helltides Grant Greater Affix Gear

The first point that can be improved in Diablo 4 Season 5 is to change the way Helltides grant greater Affix gear. Although I also like the previous Helltides because it can grind content and get better equipment.

However, the point that makes players feel very uncomfortable is that it is really hard to fight the Blood Maiden alone in Helltides. I hope that in Season 5, it can be improved to allow players to team up with other players to fight Blood Maiden. In this way, during the entire Helltide event, both sides can stack a lot of equipment and crafting materials, and even drop more Diablo 4 Gold.

2) Add Hell Portals

Helltides will also be updated in Diablo 4 Season 5, but what players want to see is some variety. With a Hell Portal, players will have little mini-dungeons or cellar-type areas to explore, and even add extra quests or challenges there to achieve greater rewards.

There are many ways to improve Helltides, and this is just one. In Diablo 4 Season 4, players were simply sent to areas full of demons and given quest objectives. Many players found it fun to fight those enemies all the time, but still wanted to see some improvements made.

3) Change The Method Of Crafting Sigils

Crafting Sigils has been a recurring point for players. Players want to choose which Nightmare Dungeon they are crafting sigils for, or be able to hide some dungeons.

It’s a slight change, but it will make it clear to players what they are crafting and for which Nightmare Dungeon. This will greatly improve the player’s freedom and logic and provide a better gaming experience.

4) Group Finder/Matchmaker

This is a feature that many players have been wanting for a long time. As fewer and fewer people play Diablo 4 around, fewer and fewer people can form a group.

If a finder/matchmaking system can be created, it will be very easy to find partners in Pit of Artificers, Nightmare Dungeons and other tasks that require group work. This will also make it faster to find Uber Bosses.

5) Solo Self-Found Mode

Some players are the typical “solo players” who don’t want to form a group and don’t want to rely on trading or other members’ drops. Then, Solo Self-Found will be a good fit for you.

In this mode, most players will complete the game without help and there are no shared resources/materials. You can still interact with people in other parts of the game world and you can also defeat bosses with them to gain honors, but the difference is that you will not have equipment.

This is just some ideas of some players, and I don’t know how the developers will make it work. But the only thing that is certain is that once this mode is created, it will become extremely challenging and fun.

About Diablo 4 DLC: Vessel of Hatred

In addition to the upcoming Diablo 4 Season 5, Diablo 4 has also announced that the release date of a new DLC is set for October 8, 2024, which is called Vessel of Hatred.

This DLC will introduce a new area and a brand new class - Spiritborn. According to Game Director Brent Gibson, Spiritborn is a top predator born for the jungle, and the full reveal of this class will take place on July 18.

Diablo 4 DLC will add a brand new playable area called Nahantu, also known as Toraja, Torajan, or Torajan Jungles. This is a wild jungle in Sanctuary in Diablo lore, located in the south of Kehjistan. Therefore, Vessel of Hatred expansion is likely to extend the existing Diablo 4 map to the currently inaccessible southwest area.

Although we don’t have full details yet, we know that Vessel of Hatred will introduce some gameplay changes. You can recruit Mercenaries to fight alongside you, they have unique abilities to help you fight, and they become more powerful the longer you are together.

In addition, Diablo has launched an end-game dungeon for the first time, which has PVE cooperative gameplay. You need to team up with other players to complete the level together. Other updates will also be introduced throughout the game, including new skills for existing classes, additional Paragon Boards, Legendary Glyphs to discover, and fresh Dungeon types.

Overall, while we wait for Season 5, Diablo 4 Season 4 will continue to play, and there is a lot to look forward to. Let us look forward to the developers making better content for Diablo 4 and wish you a merry game!
