With a new hotfix for Diablo 4, Blizzard has fixed several issues of the current Season 14. According to players, it is now worthwhile to farm Mythics again. The strong items are now also easier to obtain.
This is included in the hotfix: On July 21, 2026, Blizzard adjusted the loot rates for mythical items and shelter keys with a hotfix, after they were not properly fixed in the previous patch. Specifically, the changes include:
- Repeatable beacons now guarantee a superior shelter key.
- Mythical equipment tributes in the undercity have a greatly increased chance of Mythics on Qual 10 and guarantee Mythics on Qual 12.
In particular, the last point was already the case in Season 13 and received a lot of praise, but it was removed in Season 14 because it was supposedly a bug.
After Blizzard had previously removed the limit for crafted Mythics, it is now significantly easier to obtain or craft the desired items.
“This means tons of Mythics”
After Season 14 started with a lot of criticism, especially regarding the new Mythic system, Blizzard seems to have resolved most issues with the current hotfix. The changes are well received in the community.
In a thread on Reddit, a user suggests that all the seasonal chests, the beacons, are now actually worthwhile and that you can easily farm Mythics with them. One user states: “We have now moved from rare Mythics to Mythics that appear more frequently than blue items, in just one week.”
Before the hotfix, it was nearly impossible for casual players to obtain the best equipment for their build. Many of the best builds in the Tier List of Season 14 require Mythics to realize their full potential.
What do you think of the changes and how far are you in the endgame? Does Season 14 still lack something, or is it “complete”?
In addition to the necessary improvements to the Mythic system, there is currently a problem with the unique ring “Wendigo-Mal.” It apparently causes players to die instead of receiving a buff: Players in Diablo 4 die mysterious deaths and now believe a ring is to blame – Blizzard is investigating
