Diablo 4 Season 10 will introduce a major change for Necromancers that will make dying far less punishing, allowing them to immediately jump back into the fray at full effectiveness.
Blizzard is finally making it so Necromancer players who die to the demonic hordes will no longer need to manually resummon each of their minions. Instead, minions will automatically be resummoned when a player resurrects.
It’s a huge quality-of-life change for Necromancer mains, as it’s long been an issue with the class. Needing to resummon minions after death essentially made it so Necromancers required more additional ramp-up time than other classes. The issue was especially annoying during boss battles. Without a steady supply of corpses with which to resurrect minions, players needed to exit boss arenas to kill a group of enemies, resurrect their minions, and then return to challenge the boss.
Necromancers no longer needing to resummon their minions after death is just one of the major changes coming in Diablo 4 Season 10. The update will additionally ditch the game’s longstanding boss-immunity phases in favor of shields that powerful characters will be able to brute force their way through. It will also introduce a new form of Unique item called Chaos Armor that will open up more build possibilities for each class.
Diablo 4 Season 10 begins September 23. While Season 10 does bring some significant changes, it seems even bigger changes are on the horizon. Blizzard recently hosted a number of Diablo content creators to learn more about the game’s future. Creators have hinted that many aspects of the game players have been complaining about will be addressed, but Blizzard has yet to reveal details as to what will be changing or when those changes will arrive. Diablo 4’s second expansion won’t arrive until 2026.
Season 10 will be the first Diablo 4 season launch without Diablo boss Rod Fergusson at the helm, who recently departed Blizzard after five years to join Bioshock 4 developer Cloud Chamber. It will also be the first new season following the Diablo 4 development team’s vote to unionize.
