Staff Avatar by Staff

Blizzard has released new hotfixes for Diablo 4 with fixes for Ring of MendelnRing of Mendeln, and more. Adam Fletcher confirmed in a blue post that tooltip inconsistency will require a client patch.


HOTFIX 1 – February 20, 2025 – 2.1.2

BUG FIXES

  • Fixed an issue where Blood Golem’s Upgrade would not increase its damage while the Golem was Healthy, which includes the increase from Ring of Mendeln, Shademist Aspect, and Aspect of Fel Gluttony.
  • Fixed an issue where Skirmisher Skeleton Warriors would only deal increased damage from their basic attacks, and not from Ring of Mendeln or Shademist Aspect.
    • Developer’s Note: The Tooltip for this effect will be updated in a future patch to correctly indicate that this is a multiplicative [x] damage increase.
  • Fixed an issue where Ring of Mendeln, Shademist Aspect, and Aspect of Fel Gluttony were not increasing their damage from sources of Summoning Skill damage.
  • Fixed an issue where Skeleton Priests were not correctly increasing the damage of Minions.
  • Fixed an issue where Bone Spears spawned from Corpses or from your Minions would not Overpower targets within the Bone Prison when using Bone Duster’s Aspect.
  • Fixed an issue where Bone Spear would occasionally not create the correct number of echoes when using Deathless Visage.
  • Fixed an issue where the echoes from Deathless Visage would not occasionally not Overpower targets within the Bone Prison when using Bone Duster’s Aspect.
  • Fixed an issue where Cold Skeleton Mage’s Upgrades would not function.
  • Fixed an issue where Reaper Skeleton Warrior’s Upgrade would not correctly spawn a Corpse.
  • Fixed an issue where Kalan’s Edict was not increasing the damage of your Minions, including the damage increase from Ring of Mendeln, Shademist Aspect, and Aspect of Fel Gluttony.
    • Developer’s Note: Ring of Mendeln, Shademist Aspect, and Aspect of Fel Gluttony are intended to scale with all bonuses that increase your damage output. This includes sources like Aspect of Elements or from Critical Strike Damage, or the damage output of the specific Minion that are triggering them, such as Golem Damage, Kalan’s Edict, or the inherent bonus damage on Skirmishers. These effects are not Skills and are not Cast and thus do not benefit from the increases Locran’s Talisman or other effects that specifically affect Skills or Casts.

Additionally, we are aware of the following Known Issues which will be fixed in a future patch:

  • Aspect of Reanimation does not increase the damage of Ring of Mendeln, Shademist Aspect, or Aspect of Fel Gluttony. A fix for this issue will be included in a future patch.
  • Known Issue: Golem, Warrior, and Mage Paragon Glyphs are not correctly increasing the damage of Ring of Mendeln, Shademist Aspect, or Aspect of Fel Gluttony.
