Last week the first season launched in Diablo 4, and the devs were showered in player criticism related to the unfavorable changes introduced in patch 1.1.0.

There's certainly a lot going on around Blizzard's game, and in all the hustle and bustle you may have missed a recent discovery that exposes a serious bug. It may cost you a lot. As it turns out, one of the blessings has a serious flaw.

Blessing in Diablo 4

Blessings, so-called "seasonal gifts," in theory are supposed to accelerate our progress in gameplay during a given season. They can be invested in with Glowing Ashes, and each can be upgraded to a maximum of level 4.

It turns out that one of the blessings in the first season is very expensive - it's the Urn of Negotiation, which should increase our profits for items sold at merchants.

As streamer DatModz discovered, investing in the Urn of Negotiation has a costly side effect. Wanting to change the bonuses on an item at an occultist, DatModz had to pay more than 7.4 million gold pieces. After increasing the level of the Urn of Negotiation, the price automatically jumped to 8 million.

It seems that this bug escaped Blizzard's attention, as a bug causing such a large loss totaling millions of gold should certainly be fixed.

Although, according to some commenters, a 10% increase in gold at traders should compensate for this unexpected price increase at occultist, it is still worth rethinking which seasonal gifts you intend to invest in until the developers clarify the matter.
