Patch 1.1.2 brings a few important changes for Diablo 4. Among other things, bugs in quests and faulty objectives in the seasonal journey are eliminated. What to expect in the patch notes, you can find out in our overview.
What will Patch 1.1.2 adjust? The patch primarily addresses the buggy quests and the seasonal journey, as well as the user interface and the nightmare dungeons. It also eliminates a few bugs related to the Druid’s abilities.
Patch 1.1.2 is set to arrive on August 15 and already reveals its changes in the patch notes.
These are the most important changes for Patch 1.1.2:

- The wait time for a malicious monster to appear after activating a Malicious Heart in the world is reduced from 5 to 2 seconds.
- Nightmare dungeons could be repeated when another group member was promoted to leader. This should no longer work. In the previous patch, adjustments were made to the difficulty of nightmare dungeons.
- Regarding the seasonal journey, bugs have been fixed that caused the seasonal journey menu to not function properly. The seasonal journey objective “A Blessing in the Flood” should also now be completed as expected.
- Adjustments will be made to the user interface. The description in the tooltip for the “Locked Heart of Tenacity” will be rephrased.
- A bug will also be fixed where the notification that the world boss has appeared was incorrect when the player had not yet unlocked the Tree of Whispers.
- Interactions with certain objects, particularly corpses, did not function properly. This will be fixed.
