Diablo 4is a game about creating exponentially bigger damage numbers with every swing of a weapon, but one fan has taken that goal to the obvious conclusion. With some careful character building and a decent understanding of the game’s mechanics, it’s possible to createDiablo 4heroes that can take down even the most challenging boss encounter with just a single attack. Of course,with the help of a glitch or two, that power level can be taken even further to the point where the game will refuse to calculate the result.

Over on YouTube, content creatorRob2628demonstrated their impossible Barbarian build, illustratingthe sheer power of the currently unknown glitch that can turn damage numbers into an infinity symbol.

Diablo 4 Mythic Unique items from Season 5 that players can craft

Only possible on the game’s Public Test Region server, which is currently testing the next major update,the process requires players to equip unique armor that increases the amount of damage the Barbarian deals when they’re hit, known as Thorn damage. Triggered by the Whirlwind ability, which sets off a series of sub-skills, it’s possible to breakDiablo 4and dish out infinite damage.

The Infinite Damage Glitch Won’t Be Forever

There’s No Way It Survives

As exciting as it is to see Rob2628 eviscerate a dungeon boss, it’s doubtful that the infinite damage glitch willever leave the PTR. While it is incredibly difficult to pull off and requires an unlimited amount of crafting resources, the chance that someone manages to achieve it inDiablo 4could have a disastrous effect on the meta-game.Blizzard is likely already aware of the bug and intends to squash it before the next patch goes live, especially withVessel of Hatredaround the corner.

Diablo 4’s first major expansion is slated to drop on October 8so ahead of its arrival, Blizzard will want to ensure the base game is as stable as possible. The community can be expected to devise complicated ways to “break” the action-RPG, but with items andan original character classcoming inVessel of Hatred, there should be even moreopportunities to create overpowered builds. Fortunately for players who don’t feel like competing with impossible stats, Blizzard is generally good at staying on top of matters such as these.

How To Craft Mythic Uniques In Diablo 4 Season 5

Mythic Unique items in Diablo 4 may be the strongest gear in the game to loot, but you can also craft these items in Season 5 with the right vendors.

While dealing infinite damage is no doubt impressive,one has to wonder if it would make for a satisfying progression curve. The point ofDiablo 4is to steadily grow in power with many players wanting the satisfaction of “watching the numbers go up.” Dealing the most amount of damage possible sounds like it would be fun for a while but most would likely want to go back to feeling that tangible growth after a while.
