Infinite Damage Build with Boss Powers Causes Server Lag

The current Diablo 4 season introduces new seasonal boss abilities that, when combined effectively, create an infinite damage loop that slows down game servers. A video published by YouTuber Macrobioboi on May 9 demonstrated this powerful setup, which clears entire rooms of enemies using specific boss powers and a Legendary Aspect.

To execute this strategy, players must equip the Vampiric Curse Legendary Aspect, which applies a permanent Vulnerable status effect to enemies until their death, significantly increasing damage output.

The Flesh Reaper's Disruption boss power attempts to stun enemies while removing Vulnerable status. However, Vampiric Curse prevents Vulnerable from being removed, causing the stun effect to trigger repeatedly. Completing the build, Varshan's Life Steal boss power delivers massive damage each time a boss ability activates.

This combination creates so many simultaneous calculations that server performance suffers. As shown in wudijo's YouTube demonstration, the screen fills with countless skill effects while enemies remain perpetually stunned. He explained, "The sheer volume of calculations makes this build inherently laggy."

Blizzard Entertainment hasn't addressed this resource-heavy build, allowing players to continue using it to defeat enemies at the cost of game performance.

Concerns Over Berserk Collaboration Pricing

Meanwhile, Diablo 4's crossover event with the iconic Berserk manga has arrived, bringing popular cosmetics and items to the game. However, fans are questioning whether the premium pricing justifies these cosmetic sets.

While some cosmetics can be earned through gameplay by collecting Behelits and spending them at the free Berserk Reliquary, including:

　●　Hawks Destiny Back Trophy
　●　Skull Knight’s Heraldry Mount Armor
　●　Brand of Sacrifice Marking
　●　Foretold Eclipse Headstone
　●　Od of the Berserker Emblem

The collaboration's signature items are primarily available through paid sets purchased with premium currency, including iconic Berserk armor and accessories:

　●　The Berserker Armor, Barbarian - 2,800 Platinum
　●　The Hawk of Light, Rogue - 2,800 Platinum
　●　The Struggler, Rogue - 2,800 Platinum
　●　The Skull Knight, Necromancer - 2,800 Platinum
　●　The Schnoz, Pet Bundle - 2,800 Platinum
　●　Warhorse of the Hawk, Mount and Mount Armor - 2,500 Platinum

Each premium cosmetic costs approximately $28—nearly half the price of the base game. Acquiring all items requires about $150 or the 15,000 Platinum bundle that includes 3,500 bonus Platinum.

While the pricing isn't unexpected given Diablo 4's previous World of Warcraft collaboration, it suggests future crossovers may follow similar expensive models. Many players are reconsidering purchases despite the high-quality cosmetics, concerned about the significant cost. Diablo IV is available on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series One, Xbox Series X|S, and PC. For the latest game updates, check our article below!
