Season 14 lays the cards on the table in Diablo 4 again. Players are mainly struggling with one of their favorite contents – and they’re celebrating it.
What content is it about? It refers to the Helltides, which many players consider a must when it comes to farming essential resources and leveling characters quickly. In our Ranking of the War Plans by Lord of Hatred, the Helltides take the top spot.
Since the launch of Season 14 on June 30, 2026, more and more players have been reporting on Reddit that they are quickly reaching their limits even at lower levels and normal difficulty, often biting the dust – especially in the Helltides. This is mainly due to the density of enemies that you have to face in the areas. The seasonal event is to blame, and the players love it.
What you need to know about the seasonal event can be read on page 2 of this article.
“I learned that the hard way with my level 1 rogue”
What does the community say about the Helltides in Season 14? On Reddit, players are celebrating the combination of the innovations and the seasonal event in the Helltides. Many are joking about the difficulty but also praising it simultaneously, as it feels more like Diablo again.

- gumboglasses5000 comments: “Hell creatures just appeared while I was fighting the Worldwalker, that was really intense. But I didn’t die, honestly!”
- RetropME shares: “Yes… I learned that the hard way earlier with my level 1 rogue when I started on ‘Hard’ difficulty.”
- tk-451 adds: “Same game… Logged in, new character, rogue, accepted the seasonal quest, left the city… and within 60 seconds overrun by enemies. Me: ‘Okay, guess this is going to be another one of those seasons…’ snaps fingers and hits respawn”
Most are looking forward to the rest of the season and welcome the challenge. However, there are also some voices that find it excessive and hope that the number of enemies will be nerfed. These voices are, however, in a clear minority when scrolling through the joyful comments in the thread.
Season 14 has just started, and players are diving back into the chaos again. If you missed the start and don’t know exactly what to expect when you return now, check out our overview: Diablo 4 Season 14: All about the start, content, and the best classes
