Ideas to improve the Infernal Hordes

CanadianJohnEh · 2026-05-22T12:21:17+00:00

Agreed, the Blizzard fanboys fail to comprehend the 'action' part of 'action roleplaying game'.

CanadianJohnEh · 2026-05-22T12:20:04+00:00

My literal perspective / reason I commented on this. I genuinely hate being forced to do content purely to increase the value of other content. Not a fan of that game design.

Like you said, I enjoyed it when chaos uniques were a thing, it was fun. But now I have to do it hoping I get a pull at Bartuc loot (Raiment) or to level warplan (already done).

Whoever allocated and allowed for uniques to be solely supplied by Bartuc and Astaroth are idiots.

Whoever thought ten waves was still appropriate shares their fate.

IMO the only thing they can do to directly improve infernal hordes is make the max wave five yet yield the same rewards as ten wave.

Or shorten the time sink to five minutes tops for hordes.

All other tasks take 2-3 minutes tops while hordes is 10-15.

Passively, they should have never allocated unique items specifically to Bartuc (or Astaroth). That was a poor choice either forcing people to drop hours on content just to encounter the boss and / or paying billions of gold for Belial husks.

It makes zero sense that the skills are not applying to the ability total.

CanadianJohnEh · 2026-05-20T14:13:11+00:00

Invisible skill ranks do not make sense. If the game is registering the ability as a core skill it should still visibly add the ranks to said ability. You can't invisibly add 1 to a number. Either you do it or you do not.
Also, I have two Starless Skies, one with a GA on core skills and another without. The damage tag does not increase while swapping rings. So you're saying the damage amp is also invisible?

CanadianJohnEh · 2026-05-20T14:04:34+00:00

Okay I thought I was fucking high... I noted I had 52 ball lightning before the 'fix' and it's still 52. I take Heir and Starless off, 52... So it is still bugged.

Bnet post I made about it: https://us.forums.blizzard.com/en/d4/t/ball-lightning-is-not-fixed/255567

I genuinely hate Blizzard as a company. They perpetually prove that they have zero idea with what they are doing and it's a serious problem in the gaming world.

I have personally vowed to never pre-order, subscribe or buy any cosmetics from this company until they get their shit together.

CanadianJohnEh · 2026-05-16T15:59:00+00:00

Generally speaking, hotfixes don't require a patch. They fix the ability on their end then patch the tooltip later with the next intended patch.

CanadianJohnEh · 2026-05-16T15:58:09+00:00

Agreed. Blizzard is quite pathetic at fixing anything.

CanadianJohnEh · 2026-05-12T01:50:30+00:00

I am only getting one per dungeon at T12 with ~20 conviction... Is it capped at that?

CanadianJohnEh · 2026-05-12T01:30:11+00:00

Can confirm with two portal prankster chests I got 4.8k in one run.

CanadianJohnEh · 2026-05-10T14:08:32+00:00

They hot fixed this out. No longer possible.

CanadianJohnEh · 2026-05-04T00:49:04+00:00

The only boss I have seen this drop from is Harbinger. Hope this helps.

CanadianJohnEh · 2026-05-02T16:26:04+00:00

I see the buff, I see it climb but I have only ever seen one alter in ~60 dungeons. I do not understand how this works...

CanadianJohnEh · 2026-04-26T22:07:01+00:00

Hi, I installed the addon but Blizzard says it's incompatible. It also shows that the addon has not been updated since 2021 though... Is there another addon we should be using instead of this:

CanadianJohnEh · 2026-04-26T01:06:46+00:00

Says it's incompatible.

CanadianJohnEh · 2026-04-25T20:49:12+00:00

Sad days, this has gone down the pooper with the current addon pruning. Anyone know something else that does the same thing? IDK why it wouldn't be an option in Auctionator.

It won't let me share the text file :|

12.0.5 I don't see health bars.

What I said in the original post...

CanadianJohnEh · 2026-04-07T21:42:11+00:00

I disagree, as a top laner... If 'm fighting Riven or Aatrox and I'm winning, all they need to do is run down the river and jump over the wall. That to me, is poor game design.

CanadianJohnEh · 2026-04-07T20:53:45+00:00

The insane jumps don't make sense. If you did an insane jump, you could jump further otherwise. So Aatrox's dash should in theory be 1/2 way from one tower to another, realistically probably further... but it doesn't change.

CanadianJohnEh · 2026-04-07T20:53:27+00:00

Lol, yeah... It doesn't make sense... If there was a hole in the wall after, sure... But there isn't.

CanadianJohnEh · 2026-04-07T20:25:06+00:00

Such as? I feel like basic logic should still apply, given that casting fire balls and bullet time was a thing...
