Diablo 4’s Helltide event has somehow gotten even harder after Patch 1.1
A major change for endgame players in Diablo 4 Patch 1.1, released today, will make Helltide events much, much more challenging. While this endgame activity still remains one of the best sources of loot, monsters have become harder to kill and chests will now require slightly more Aberrant Crystals.
Helltides are world events that, much like Strongholds, see enemies take over an entire region of Sanctuary. Unlocked after completing the main storyline and accessing World Tier Three, in Helltide events you can gather a unique currency called Aberrant Crystals in order to unlock Tortured Chests.
