New Diablo 4: Lord of Hatred Hotfix Removes Portal at End of Pit Run

May 1, 2026UcigasaComment(0)

Blizzard has released another Diablo 4 hotfix, addressing the auto-spawned portal at the end of runs in the Pit, which has been a source of frustration. While this was originally intended to be a quality-of-life feature to quickly exit the pit, it often ended up just being ripe for misclicks, with the pit closing behind the player after taking it, wasting loot and possibly glyph upgrades. The portal itself also often felt unnecessary, given the ability to portal back to town yourself.
