Diablo 4 patch 1.0.2 notes and hotfix: Server improvements, bug fixes, and more

Diablo 4 got some patch updates and bug fixes recently, which Blizzard introduced right after the early access of the game went live for the Ultimate and Deluxe edition owners of the title. It had a rather rough start as the servers were not running optimally and many in the community were experiencing a fair bit of log-in issues including high queue times and authentication errors.

Blizzard has since shipped a few fixes in the form of patches 1.0.2 and 1.0.2c in order to improve a majority of the performance issues that the game seems to be facing.

Some of the biggest highlights of the patches will be improvements that have made their way to the servers, which will not prevent the game from crashing as often.

Additionally, the Rogue Class specialization skill Inner Sight has received some changes as well, and now after the unlimited energy of the skill expires, there will be a four-second gap before the next enemy is marked.

Diablo 4 fans looking for a detailed description of the patch can look up Blizzard's official website. For a brief overview, however, here are all the major highlights.
