Diablo 4 Season 5

The launch of Diablo 4 Season 5, which took place on August 6, was met with anticipation from the community eager to explore new content. However, the season has been plagued by technical issues that have led to widespread frustration among players. The most significant of these problems revolves around the Greater Equipment Chests, which are failing to function as intended, undermining the excitement of the new content. Greater Equipment Chests: A Promising Feature with Flaws Season 5 of Diablo 4 introduced a range of new content, including the challenging wave-based endgame mode called Infernal Hordes. In this mode, players fend off powerful enemies while collecting Burning Aether, a vital resource for unlocking various chests. Among these, the Spoils of Greater Equipment chests are particularly coveted, as they are supposed to guarantee the inclusion of at least one Greater Affix, a crucial component for enhancing gear. https://www.reddit.com/r/diablo4/comments/1eocy2h/guaranteed_ga_chest_dropped_no_ga_items/?utm_sourceembedv2&utm_mediumpost_embed&utm_contentwhitespace&embed_host_urlhttps://gamerant.com/diablo-4-season-5-technical-problems/ https://www.reddit.com/r/diablo4/comments/1eocy2h/comment/lhcpi81/?utm_sourceembedv2&utm_mediumcomment_embed&utm_contentwhitespace&embed_host_urlhttps%3A%2F%2Fgamerant.com%2Fdiablo-4-season-5-technical-problems%2F https://www.reddit.com/r/diablo4/comments/1eocy2h/comment/lhd2mdf/?utm_sourceembedv2&utm_mediumcomment_embed&utm_contentwhitespace&embed_host_urlhttps%3A%2F%2Fgamerant.com%2Fdiablo-4-season-5-technical-problems%2F https://www.reddit.com/r/diablo4/comments/1eocy2h/comment/lhd6n5d/?utm_sourceembedv2&utm_mediumcomment_embed&utm_contentwhitespace&embed_host_urlhttps%3A%2F%2Fgamerant.com%2Fdiablo-4-season-5-technical-problems%2F However, players quickly noticed that these chests are not delivering on their promises. Reports flooded social media, especially Reddit, where players shared their disappointing experiences. One user highlighted that a chest labeled as "guaranteed" failed to drop any Greater Affix items at all. This issue appears to be widespread, with many players noting that these chests often yield only standard legendary items, missing the promised Greater Affixes. Community Reactions and Additional Bugs The problems with Greater Equipment Chests are just one of several technical issues plaguing Season 5. Players have also reported encountering invisible enemies and leftover content from previous seasons, leading some to refer to this update as the "Season of Infernal Bugs." https://twitter.com/PaulPhenom_/status/1822020389402239245?ref_srctwsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1822021039544791252%7Ctwgr%5E9076ca59188da8e326cd3e6364f3b244f1c43ad6%7Ctwcon%5Es2_&ref_urlhttps%3A%2F%2Fgamerant.com%2Fdiablo-4-season-5-technical-problems%2F In response to the growing frustration, Diablo 4 Community Manager Adam Fletcher acknowledged the issues.
