An expert’s hunter can defeat the toughest bosses in Diablo 4 with a single blow, and it’s thanks to a new pair of pants.
Who is the expert?
- Max Radz, better known as ‘Wudijo’, is a German streamer and expert in various action RPGs like Diablo 4 and Path of Exile.
- Season 0, which was shortly after the release of Diablo 4, saw Wudijo become the first solo player to reach level 100 in Hardcore mode.
- In Season 1, the pro was once again active in Diablo 4 and tried to become the first player to reach level 100 in Hardcore mode. However, just before reaching the goal, Wudijo lost his character due to a connection error.
Currently, Wudijo is playing Diablo 4 again and taking advantage of the new content and mechanics of Season 2. He has found a way to defeat even the toughest bosses with a single attack.
You can see a clip of how Wudijo defeats Uber Lilith with a one-hit, who is regarded as one of the toughest bosses in Diablo 4, here:
How does he take down bosses with a single hit? Wudijo plays a hunter who wears pants called ‘Tibault’s Will’, which is a new unique item that was added to Diablo 4 with the release of Season 2.
He combines these pants with a special dagger to both increase the maximum number of combo points and quickly fill the combo points.
A pair of pants provides additional combo points to deal massive damage
How exactly does the pants-dagger combination work? Wudijo’s hunter increases the damage of his attacks through combo points. In his video on YouTube, for example, the damage of the attack “Rapid Fire” increases from 29,550 – 36,116 through one combo point to 32,505 to 39,728. Additionally, he fires an extra arrow (6 instead of 5). Furthermore, each additional combo point increases the damage and the number of arrows fired – the effect is stackable.
By default, Wudijo can stack three combo points and thus deal up to 50,653 damage and shoot 8 arrows. However, now the new pants come into play: thanks to ‘Tibault’s Will’, he can stack far more than 3 combo points. According to PC Gamer, up to 23 stacks are possible. Wudijo claims this is a bug.
With the dagger ‘Doom’, Wudijo is able to fill the combo points completely in a short time and can subsequently deal extreme damage.
Is a nerf/fix possible? Wudijo explains in his video that he considers the high number of combo point stacks to be a bug and refers to it as “gamebreaking”. He himself would not rule out that it gets fixed.
In general, the Diablo 4 community is currently discussing whether Blizzard might have gone too far with some buffs in Season 2. Some players are calling for nerfs for way too strong builds, but Game Director Joe Shelly has other plans:
