Diablo IV: Players Exploit Generous Seasonal Bug, Blizzard Stays Mum

Blizzard's "Fun Police" Reputation Takes a Backseat

Bug Allows Players to Carry Over Legendary Tempering Recipes

In a surprising turn of events, Blizzard Entertainment, the studio notorious for its strict policies against exploits, is allowing a seasonal bug in Diablo IV to persist. This bug allows players to carry over their Legendary Tempering recipes from the previous season, a feature that was not intended by the developers.

Historically, Blizzard has been known as the "Fun Police," swiftly patching out any unintended features or exploits that players discover. However, in this instance, the studio is taking a more lenient approach.

The bug was discovered at the start of Diablo IV's current season. Players realized they could still access their Legendary Tempering recipes, which are typically reset with each new season. This has given them a significant advantage in crafting powerful gear.

Blizzard has been made aware of the bug but has not taken any action to patch it out. This has led to speculation that the studio is being more generous than usual and allowing players to enjoy the unintended benefit.
