Diablo 4 players have weighed in on the best changes to come during the Season of Hatred Rising and the new Paragon system is the undisputed winner.
Diablo 4 Season 6 may have been a little overshadowed thanks to its simultaneous launch with the Vessel of Hatred expansion. Now that the dust has settled, players have taken stock of the new inclusions like Realmwalker events and the seasonal questline surrounding the Zakarum Remnants.
There are some clear winners and losers in the offerings that came about this season of Diablo 4. While fans have been begging Blizzard to keep the Seething Opals around, the event you partake in to farm them is less popular.

Now that players are finally hitting their stride in the new season, Diablo 4 Season 6’s Paragon changes are finally being felt. They’ve emerged as a major factor in Diablo 4 players’ enjoyment while tackling the endgame grind.
