Blizzard issued a hotfix today to disable the Limitless Rage legendary item aspect in Diablo 4 after players exploited a bug that caused barbarian builds to deal damage in the quadrillions [1].
The bug occurred due to a problematic interaction between Limitless Rage, the Melted Heart of Selig mythic unique, and the Endurant Faith unique [1]. This combination allowed Limitless Rage to stack more than 15,000 times instantly, multiplying damage output tens of thousands of times beyond the intended design [1].
The excessive damage led to unbalanced play and undermined competition, especially since Diablo 4 recently introduced official in-game leaderboards, prompting Blizzard to act swiftly on damage exploits [1]. Earlier this week, the company already hotfixed three other bugs affecting sorcerers, rogues, and spiritborn builds [1].
The disablement of Limitless Rage aims to prevent further abuse while Blizzard investigates a permanent fix. The hotfix was applied earlier today and effectively blocks the infinite stacking exploit tied to the item [1].
