"Diablo 4's First Major Patch Brings Class Balance Changes and Nerfs/Buffs"

Diablo 4 has received its first major patch, which focuses on balancing the five starting classes. Blizzard has reduced the effectiveness of some builds and synergies that were deemed unreasonable for the health of the game, while also buffing some skills and builds that were not as effective as they would like. The patch notes include changes to each class, as well as item and passive changes. Blizzard acknowledges that class balance is an ongoing journey and more balancing changes will be on the way.
