Diablo 4 players baffled as one-shot bosses make the Pit impossible

As a seasoned veteran of Diablo, I’ve seen my fair share of challenges and triumphs. The latest addition to Diablo 4, Season 5, has been a rollercoaster ride so far. The Infernal Hordes have been a breath of fresh air, offering exciting new rewards and a fresh challenge. However, the Pit, an integral part of our gaming routine, seems to have taken a turn for the worse.


The beginning of Diablo 4’s fifth season has encountered some initial bumps. Although Infernal Hordes have generally been well-received, players have been dealing with several glitches that hinder gameplay progression. A recurring issue is that the Pit bosses are defeating players in a single hit.

In Season 4, we were presented with “The Pit,” a continuous labyrinth requiring players to conquer rooms filled with adversaries and defeat bosses for advancement. However, the current predicament lies in the fact that navigating through enemy rooms is less challenging than overcoming the bosses.

Since Season 4, one-shot mechanics have been a problem, but this season’s challenges have left players doubting if it’s still worth the struggle. The payoff isn’t commensurate with the effort invested, and the speed at which bosses eliminate you makes strategic planning virtually impossible.

Currently, the Underworld Troops are providing more lucrative loot, and some players have expressed concerns that the Bosses from The Abyss are misaligned with the game mode. They suggest these bosses are significantly tougher than other foes, making them almost invincible to defeat.

‘On Reddit, ‘Disappointing_Salad’ expressed that they had been battling a boss, decided to let themselves be defeated so they could teleport away from the Pit since they felt they had more important tasks. They added that these bosses absorb an excessive amount of damage.’

There’s no denying it is a great starting point for new players to build their characters up. Not only that, but it adds variety to Diablo 4’s endgame, so the mode has tremendous value that’s just getting lost in what many believe has to be a bug.

“It’s not worthwhile playing Pit right now because the bosses are excessively difficult and the rewards are disappointingly low compared to Hordes. Fingers crossed for an update soon.”

Currently, Blizzard is focusing on making some corrections for Diablo 4. Among these adjustments, they are preparing a patch to tackle the issue where Greater Affixes aren’t dropping correctly in Infernal Hordes, and another fix to ensure that The Pit consistently drops the same materials as the Hordes, since it is an end-game activity.

As a seasoned player with numerous hours spent battling through Diablo games, I can confidently say that patience is crucial right now, especially when tackling the toughest bosses in Diablo 4. However, it’s equally important to know your strategy for defeating these formidable foes, as falling behind isn’t an option if you want to progress effectively.
