  • Diablo III Hotfixes - May (Updated 5/23/12)

    Below you'll find a list of hotfixes which address various gameplay and service issues affecting Diablo III. Hotfixes are updates we make on our end without requiring you to download a new patch. Some of the hotfixes below will go live the moment they are implemented, while others may require your realm to be restarted to go into effect. Please keep in mind that some issues cannot be addressed without a client-side patch update.

    Players will now receive an error message when attempting to remove a gem from an item with no sockets (rather than disconnecting)
    Players will now properly have their casting interrupted when attacked while performing resurrect on a fallen group member
    Resolved over 30 game and service crashes affecting players

    Classes

    Demon Hunter

    Active Skills

    Smoke Screen
