Diablo III Hotfixes

The list of Diablo III Hotfixes reflects a couple of bug fixes that went live a couple of days ago in Blizzard's action/RPG sequel:

  • Players can no longer gain achievements they have not earned by joining a Public Game with someone who has earned those achievements
  • Monks can no longer infinitely stack the damage buff from Combination Strike by changing weapons.

You'd think that a bug where people get achieves they haven't earned just by joining games would show up even on minimal internal testing of the patch. Are they letting us beta test the patches now?

After 100 hours, it only happened 1x for me. I had been in many games where my friends had gotten cheevos for jewel crafter or blacksmith - and I didn't get it then. I dunno. Weird stuff.

It's because the patch on Tuesday was awarding achieves that people earned and didn't get credit for.

Obviously there was a bug introduced that awarded certain achieves to people that just played with others that earned them. I gave 5 or 6 achieves between two people (Bats being one) just by joining their game Tuesday night.
