Blizzard has released Update 1.2.2 for Diablo 4 and shared its full patch notes. According to them, this new patch adds to the game five new Unique Rings to the game, one for each class. These are based on popular Malignant Powers from Season of the Malignant.
Of course, this update also includes some fixes that address a number of gameplay issues. For example, it fixes a problem where Lilith could still use powerful attacks even after she’s been defeated in the first part of the Echo of Lilith. It also solves a problem where your followers could get stuck when moving back and forth in certain areas.
Blizzard also claimed that Patch 1.2.2 brings better visuals, makes the game run smoother, and keeps it from crashing. But we want to be honest with you – these sound like the usual things they say for most game updates. Based on what we’ve seen, there aren’t any big improvements in how the game runs.
Lastly, players can expect Quests, Dungeons and Events fixes and tweaks. There’s also an accessibility fix for an issue where the Screen Reader wouldn’t properly read life totals above 999.
Like always, Battlenet will download this update the next time you launch its client. Below you can also find its full patch notes.
