Blizzard's official Patch 2.4.3 notes have a full rundown of the other quality-of-life changes, bug fixes, and more. Increased Attack Speed (IAS) from all equipment now affects Whirlwind, and the skill received a significant buff in the lower levels. Cooldowns on starting a new Whirlwind, Leap Attack, or Leap after an initial Whirlwind were removed. The Barbarian class received the most attention in this update. The list of available games was also extended from 20 to 40. Filters and a search tool were added to PC and console lobbies, something that most players have been asking for since the game was first released. Console lobbies notably received an update to help players find parties and games without as much trouble, while the new Game Creator gave new options to better fine-tune your lobby. The latter is my personal favourite.Diablo 2: Resurrected Patch 2.4.3 went live Jduring the ongoing first ladder season. Generally speaking Ice is dull, but safe, fire is flashy and reliable, and lightning is for glass cannons who don’t mind randomised damage.

In the early game the Warmth in the Fire tree does exactly that. Speaking of mana, anything you can do to increase the Sorceress’ mana regeneration speed is worth taking. Once you hit level six you get to start spamming Frost Nova-an excellent area-of-effect control spell that you can spam effectively if you have the mana. The slowing effect gives you a bit of crowd control and you can use the bolt to snipe Fallen Shamans. In the early game, if you’re playing it safe, prioritise the Ice tree with frost bolt and her armour spell. She’s extremely vulnerable, and until you get a companion to share the load, you'll likely find yourself running away and throwing pot shots back at enemies. She faces a tough road to level six, however. The Sorceress can be one of the most fun classes to play at high levels with her massive nuke spells and ability to deal strong elemental damage-depending on the skill tree in which you choose to specialise.
