The latest season of Diablo 4 seems to have unleashed an exploit allowing sorcerers to inflict fantastical damage numbers that are so excessive, they defy in-game calculations.
This exploit enables players to stack damage bonuses to an extent that the game displays mind-boggling damage figures on monster hits, resulting in vanquished foes before they even have a chance to react. With this mechanism, the game potentially risks becoming unplayable, as Blizzard is expected to intervene swiftly to remedy the situation.
The how-to of this exploit remains partly opaque, but it combines a sorcerer passive skill, a new seasonal ability, and perfectly timed dungeon portals. Streamer Mekuna outlines a method for executing this strategy in a video, while player wony is credited with the initial discovery. The exploit seems to revolve around manipulating the Enlightenment passive, which boosts elemental damage after cycling through different elemental skills.
Once activated, if you take a portal to a new area, this seasonal power intertwines with the newly boosted stats, leading to a wild escalation that pushes character sheets from typical numbers to astronomical heights."
