Let’s review the Diablo 4 Hotfix 3 update patch notes.
Patch Notes for the Diablo 4 Hotfix 3 Update
Gameplay Update
We are implementing a reduction to overall monster power levels in Nightmare Dungeons. The new top range for tier 100 will feel like what tier 70 was previously.
Developer Note: Although these values make it appear that the higher tiers are easier than lower tiers, this is not the case because the monsters also benefit from being significantly higher level than players in higher Nightmare Dungeon tiers.
Examples
Tier 35
- HP reduced by ~2%
- Damaged reduced by ~1%
Tier 50
- HP reduced by ~20%
- Damage reduced by ~13%
Tier 70
- HP reduced by ~60%
- Damage reduced by 54%
Tier 100
- HP reduced by ~82%
- Damage reduced by ~79%
