Diablo 4 players hope Season 5 salvages The Pit\u2019s \u201cboring\u201d endgame Blizzard EntertainmentDespite The Pit being added to Diablo 4 in Season 4, players are already bored despite it being touted as an endgame activity that\u2019d hold your attention for hundreds of hours. They\u2019re already looking to Season 5 to save the endgame. According to many players who\u2019d rather make a new character and grind than trudge through the The Pit, big changes are needed to get them back on board with their level 100 characters. Considering the Diablo series has always been focused on endgame content, the fact that some players prefer to make new characters over grinding the endgame is an issue. \u201cI go days without logging in just to log in and quit in 30 minutes. The new car smell wore off pretty quick,\u201d one Redditor claimed. \u201c[The Pit] is really really boring. I got to pit 60 something and I just don\u2019t see the point anymore. Why am I getting stronger? To keep doing pits fighting the same mobs in the same tilesets with the same mechanics?\u201d said another. They continued, \u201cThe only thing that\u2019s different enough are the Uber bosses but f*ck me if I\u2019m ever getting to that point, I feel more like rolling another class than continuing the endgame grind.\u201d One Redditor put it bluntly, \u201cFor an endgame activity, The Pit is very boring.\u201d However, there are some who are hopeful Season 5\u2019s offering will help out with Diablo 4\u2019s endgame woes. \u201cHopefully they add more engaging content to the endgame. I personally love Helltides and do Whispers more than the pit. But the new Season 5 activity looks cool if they made it drop better loot,\u201d said one player. But what\u2019s actually changing in Season 5, and why are some players optimistic? First off, Whisper bounties will take \u201csignificantly less time\u201d according to the devs, and they\u2019re increasing the drop rate on Baneful Hearts. Unique and Mythic Uniques will be available in Whisper Caches, the Purveyor of Curiosities, and Tortured Gifts in Helltides, with a general increase to Mythic Unique drop rates outside of boss drops. Additionally, since endgame dungeons will no longer have to be replayed to fight the boss again, players can just re-summon them on the spot once they\u2019re defeated. Though players will still have to run through The Pit for Masterworking, the path to getting a build that can make deep runs in The Pit will be much faster. Not to mention Season 5\u2019s Infernal Hordes mode that\u2019ll add yet another endgame grind. However, it\u2019s also worth noting Season 5 won\u2019t be changing the Nightmare Dungeon rotation, something that players who are already bored with the game aren\u2019t particularly happy about. Though users remain displeased with Diablo 4\u2019s current endgame, there\u2019s reason for them to be optimistic for Season 5 and beyond with Vessel of Hatred on the horizon.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
