Diablo 4 Players Have Already Hit Level 100 but the Hardcore Race Is Still On
The race to hit max level in Diablo 4’s Hardcore mode is hotting up, with one player in particular close to the impressive feat.
Blizzard’s action role-playing game doesn’t launch until June 6, but early access kicked off on June 1 and in just a few days players hit level 100.
Twitch streamer Rob2628 appears to be the first Diablo 4 player to hit max level, using the Barbarian class and a focus on the Whirlwind skill to get there.
Some Diablo 4 players are upping their chances by using a trick to boost experience that involves the lead player of a group leaving the party and triggering a dungeon reset in the process, though it seems likely Blizzard will address this in a future patch.
Of more interest is the race to 100 for a Hardcore character, thanks to Blizzard’s plans to immortalize the first 1,000 players to hit this goal on a statue of the game’s antagonist Lillith. This is significantly more difficult, of course, as Hardcore mode includes permadeath, which means if your character dies, they’re gone forever.
Diablo YouTuber and streamer Wudijo, using the Rogue class, is inching closer to completing the challenge. Wudijo is one of Diablo 4’s most prominent players, and hit headlines in May for defeating the Ashava world boss solo on Hardcore during the Server Slam open beta event.
Wudijo’s race to 100 on Hardcore is a solo attempt, which means no grouping up or exploiting dungeon resets. At the time of publication, over 10,000 people were watching Wudijo slowly grind through the final handful of levels. Wudijo is even daring to venture into Diablo 4’s PvP areas where could run into enemy players.
Diablo 4’s levelling race comes amid a raft of updates already issued by Blizzard, as Diablo 4 received its first big balance patch.
