Diablo 4's next patch hands out courtesy buffs to the poor fools who aren't playing its overpowered new class

Earlier this week, Blizzard said 63% of all Diablo 4 players are spending their time with its newest class, the spiritborn. The other 37% of players who choose to play lesser classes are probably standing off to the side as their new sibling wipes out entire dungeons in seconds. It's rough out there for non-spiritborn players, but the next patch will at least make life at the bottom of the meta a little more fun.

Next Tuesday, Diablo 4 will drop a patch with some meaty buffs for its weakest classes. Some of them seem targeted at builds that have either been popular with players before or have yet to be more than a novelty. Rogues, for example, will get to return to using Twisting Blades, a skill where you stick your blades in monsters and have them return to you after a short delay, killing everything in their path. And sorcerers who have been patiently waiting for fire skills to have their time in the spotlight will be delighted to see huge improvements to Meteor and Incinerate.
