You can currently grab some of the best items in the game completely for free in Diablo Immortal with a bit of luck. The reason for this is a bug in the Shadow War and the Ritual of Banishment. As an apology, there are legendary items, emblems, and gems.
What items are these? During the major Faction War between Shadows and Immortals, a bug occurred this week. Players are currently receiving letters in Diablo Immortal that may contain various rewards. These include:
- a selection of normal gems
- Candidate keys, which allow you to open chests during the Horadrim trial
- Hilt, the most important Free2Play currency in the game
- a box with legendary equipment
- a legendary emblem
You use the emblems to get legendary gems for free. Each emblem guarantees you a legendary gem with a chance for gems with up to 5 stars.
With the emblems, you also have a chance to get the best legendary gem in Diablo Immortal. More on how gems and emblems work will be shown in our video:
How do I get the items? Open your mailbox in the game and check if you have received mail. The subject line of the respective letter should be “Ritual of Banishment” or “Shadow War Bug.”
According to current information, primarily European servers have been affected by the bug. However, the activity of your clan also seems to be a factor in whether and which rewards you receive.
Some users report that they have not received any legendary emblems or only one letter. If you have no mail, then your clan or server was probably not affected. Otherwise, check your mailbox regularly in the coming days.

Legendary Items due to serious bug in Diablo Immortal
The reason for the compensation is a bug in the Shadow War last week. Some clans were unable to rank up in their table because victories were not counted. The Ritual of Banishment was also correspondingly flawed.

Many servers were apparently affected, but not all. On a US server, the Ritual apparently took place, but the clan leader kicked all players out of his guild and claimed all the rewards himself.
Still, many players are likely to be happy about the compensations. Because even if you did not actively participate, you will receive a reward as long as your clan participated in the war. And at least the sheer number of players remains enormous:
