Diablo 4 is being actively patched with the new expansion Lord of Hatred, but now a bug has crept in that makes players almost immortal. How long the bug will remain in the game is uncertain.
What kind of change is this? Blizzard is currently patching Diablo 4 and the new expansion Lord of Hatred. A patch from May 13, 2026 (you can find the exact patch notes on blizzard.com) removed a bug that had rendered the aspect of Glynns Anvil unusable.
This increases the Determination stacks by 2. Additionally, there is damage reduction of 2.5-4% per stack that is active. This allows for a reduction of up to 24%, with one stack consumed per hit.
Until the patch, this hadn’t worked; now the situation is completely reversed, and the aspect of Glynns Anvil makes you overpowered.
Damage can’t harm you
What is the current situation? Currently, the stacks can be further increased by adding the aspect of Glynns Anvil to the entire equipment. When upgraded, an absurd maximum number of determination stacks can be reached.
You can easily exceed the number 50, making the damage reduction so strong that most hits barely scratch your character. YouTuber MacroBioBoi mathematically explained the whole thing:
On Reddit, a player noticed the bug and described their experience as follows: “I play a druid in hardcore mode and have collected the maximum number of determination stacks […]. With the now corrected aspect of Glynns Anvil on my legs and 58 determination stacks, my resilience in battle increased from 9 million to 52 million.”
In the comments, other users can only marvel or amuse themselves at the fact that the aspect didn’t work at all and now works too well. It is expected that Blizzard will not leave the current situation unchanged for long and will soon adjust the overpowered feature.
With the new expansion, additional torment levels have been added to the game. However, the actual difficulty lies elsewhere, namely in obtaining an important resource: In Diablo 4, players comfortably play at the highest difficulty, but the real challenge is the gems
