Diablo 4 Temporarily Removes Bugged Sidequest for Surprising Reason

A glitch in Diablo 4's sidequest has caused the game to disable it, preventing players from achieving 100% completion in the Scosglen zone. Despite a mostly seamless pre-launch, some players have reported encountering bugs and other issues during the early access period.

The Stolen Artifice sidequest from the Scosglen zone in Diablo 4 has been causing frustration among players due to a glitch that spawns multiple copies of the bandit named Darcel. This elite enemy can quickly overwhelm most players, making the mission nearly impossible to complete. In response, Blizzard has temporarily disabled the sidequest, which unfortunately makes it impossible to fully explore and earn rewards from the Scosglen area. However, Blizzard is actively working to fix the issue and players can expect a resolution soon. Despite the setback, dedicated players can still strive to uncover every secret and earn maximum Renown from the game, as Blizzard is committed to delivering a smooth and enjoyable gaming experience.

Disabling the quest may have been frustrating for some players, but it was the right decision to prevent unnecessary deaths caused by glitches. This is especially important for Hardcore Diablo 4 players who are participating in the Hardcore Victories Contest race to level 100. While being unable to complete the Scosglen zone is a temporary setback, losing hours of progress due to avoidable bugs is far worse.

For those eager to jump into Sanctuary early, Diablo 4 offers Deluxe and Ultimate Editions, as well as an upgrade option for the Standard Edition, which includes bonus content and early access. However, even with early access, players have experienced glitches, bugs, and connectivity issues. With the game's official launch just a few days away, it is hoped that Blizzard will be able to address these issues to ensure a smooth and seamless experience for all players.

Diablo 4 is available for PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series S/X.
