Raxx is straight up an invaluable source of information and feedback for Blizzard and they don't even have to pay him. He basically tested the game like he was an employee. This is the kind of testing that will make the game better. Much respect man
Imagine someone not working for blizzard doing more for them then themselves. That's where we are, stop buying this crap and paying into the idea is a good one.
yes, except he bogs down his feedback with way too much information, it does take an employee time to read through this stuff. The bugs and issues are super good feedback. The EXP values... well, 95% of the player base doesn't care how much exp they get in a dungeon, they don't sit and do one dungeon over and over. While it's nice to know the variance and it may need addressed, the dev team has 100,000 things more important to do to make the game fun and enticing and the EXP of dungeons just doesn't really play into that. Raxx most likely needs to put everything related to EXP in a seperate document from bugs.
I think he's said Blizzard could never pay him as much as he makes for being a streamer on Twitch/RUclips. But yeah, the least Blizzard could do is make him a partner or employ him in some capacity to get some sort of benefits.
The amount of effort you put in to make the game better for all of us fans is astounding. From a game dev (not Blizzard), I thank you wholeheartedly. This is fandom at its best.
Thank you for being able to do exactly what the PTR is designed to do. As somebody that that used to work in AAA games, having well-thought out feedback like this is invaluable. (My creative director always said "Feedback is a Gift."). The information and feedback from top community people is invaluable.
This is honestly way above and beyond what a PTR is for - Blizzard should pay Raxx for this work because this is the kind of thing an internal testing team should be doing. PTR is for feedback and bug testing- It shouldn’t be the job of players to put together detailed balance spreadsheets.
@@knowmatter5503 A lot of what the PTR is will be looking at telemetry data and seeing how people are playing, what features they are using, etc. Raxx is providing above and beyond, but is in line with the level of feedback a lot of top community people provide for all types of games.
If Blizzard ever stops mistreating their QA they need to hire Raxx for real. Too bad the games industry treat QA like garbage when their work is so important.
To comment on the event variance you noted at 7:36 - Certain events are only spawn eligible in specific dungeons that have the associated monster type. For example, Nest only spawns in spider dungeons, Hostage only spawns in Bandit dungeons, etc. That probably explains why you didn't run into certain events. And buffing the odds of getting one of the "monster type restricted" events could feel really wonky if you're running the same couple of dungeons over and over again and running into the same event too frequently as a result.
Thank you Raxx! Looking forward to the season so much. It's a shame we have to wait an entire month... but so happy about all the changes. Your feedback surely helps tons
Proper testing! Thank you. All the creators were more interested in copy paste " build" videos with their same old" new best build" title . It's ptr for Christ's sake. I've been TESTING non stop with friends. No build vids, or algorithm chasing. Thanks again for actually texting
I know you said it´s the work noone wants to do also on stream, but watching you test these things in the last 3 days on stream was pretty fun to watch, because the way how you do it is very valuable and consistent in my opinion. Thank you for what you contribute to this game. Much love
Blizzard should already give Raxx at least private recognition as one of the most dedicated testers and QA collaborators for his efforts towards the game improvement.
This type of video is exactly why I love your content, enjoyable person to watch. But also understand the numbers and breakdowns of everything and I respect and enjoy watching things like this. It’s never just watch me farm this for hours with a group of people and get god tier gear. I respect you play the game like regular people would but just for longer periods. It’s easier to envision things you acquire in games and do for the masses, as long as they invest the time in playing. Thanks for all you do with the ARPG community
You're speaking my language with the last part about NMD Tier Lists. Not having to worry about which ones suck and which ones don't would go a long way to improve the NMD experience overall. I watched a couple of your streams. You did awesome work during the PTR. Cheers.
@Raxxanterax - Keep making the deep dives, I don't always play "efficiently" but when I do, it's because of your amazing data and guides! Thanks for all the in-game tips/tricks.
Anyone who knows your work and think you're a "hater" is insane. You've always been super hardworking, earnest, detail orientated, factual and endlessly patient. Just know the community appreciates it no matter what blizzard chose to do.
They NEED to make the pit start giving Glyph EXP once it reaches the equivalent of NM 100 mobs. No reason why it shouldn't.... The last 2 seasons I hit level 100 and only 3 glyphs were barely 15... there is an obvious problem there.
First time i have commented on one of your videos. THANK YOU FOR YOUR EFFORT! I hope that Bliz looks at your data, as this was an invaluable information source. I also used your Twitch stream during testing, to show one of my friends the play of Minion Necro, as that has been his main since D2, and he felt robbed of his money since the release of D4. this MAY be what brings him back into the gam for season 4! Here is hoping my clan comes back after this bad season! GGWP Sir!
Bless this man for being such an active part in fixing this game, imagine if we had a ptr starting from S1, Blizzard can't do things right without breaking their head first smh.
Awesome work Raxx!! All the effort and care you put into testing and reporting things is truly amazing! The fact that there are people that think you want the game to fail, its just ridiculous, while there are a bunch of other content creators that only say "D4 bad" to farm hate views and don't actually contribute to make the game better. Keep up the amazing work you do Raxx!! 😎😎🥇🥇
I like how you were able to give critical feedback without swearing, calling the Devs or Blizzard name, and keeping things constructive. Good work dude🎉
I was there live for some of it. In the past, I've been critical of Rax for being too negative at times, but the way his analysis was done was excellent and spot on. So, I'm a fan again-great work! Also, probs to Blizzard for making a nearly 180-degree turn on items and improving the overall feel and gameplay of the game. I'm very impressed.
12:36 This is a really nerdy video. I do care about this data and the research that goes into it. We know you care. Thank you for spending your time informing us. I have very little spare time. Listening to your videos allows me to game. I go into a season ready to spend my time efficiently.
This data is super important, and takes a ton of work to gather. Thank you for taking your time to do this, and providing this data to Blizzard to try and help improve the game. It is appreciated Raxx.
Amazing detailed analysis. Thank you so much for continuing to push to improve all of these issues in D4. We all want this game to improve and become more fun and engaging to play. Your efforts help to provide specific information and data that Blizzard can utilize... if they are willing to take all of these recommendations into consideration, and present them to the appropriate developers/designers to implement in whatever capacity/methodology is possible. Fingers crossed for Season 4 (and beyond) 🤞
I sent them a bug report on the first day of the PTR about the Sealed Door in Mercy's Reach as I was trying to test the leveling process. I was surprised that it's still an issue.
New to following/watching your videos, but this kinda deep dive is invaluable to help all of us. I definitely appreciate it. Also i find this kind of information intriguing. Keep up the good work.
Raxx thank you and all of Maxroll for not getting bing up and basically handing Blizzard everything they need I truly HOPE blizzard takes this serious bc from what I’ve basically collected from the player base is most are not returning and the percentage that are this is there last try or chance if Blizzard does not hit a grand slam it’s all over I can’t imagine this game failing within a year but I’ve played games that have so cheers to you Raxx for everything you do HOPE to see all of you on the launch of D4 S4
If i remember correctly, the max exp gain was with +10 lvl mobs, no matter what you play, NMD or PIT, so that would explain why you don't get more exp if +20 lvl pit
Raxx, please include the column that shows the NM dungeons that are the quickest to the end boss. When I use your document, I rarely have interest in which map gives me the best XP. I wanna know which map will get me to the glyph upgrade device the fastest. You included this data for the first two seasons, but didn't for season three. I'm hoping that you'll include it for season 4. Thanks, man! That doc is an excellent resource.
They should make an in game D4 statue after you. People can click it and it says "The Savior of Sanctuary". I'm so happy you do these videos and really try to make Diablo 4 the game it was meant to be!
Dude, you probably don't get told this a lot but I think it's worth saying to you after this video. Thank you for all the blood, sweat, and tears you sacrifice for this niche community. I know the stuff you do here takes a lot of time and effort and if your professional ARPG influence can make Season 4 even better, that is priceless. I am very excited for the future.
I love your videos. I especially love your feedback videos. I played Diablo 4 at launch and honestly I cannot imagine what they could do to win me back, but if they took your feedback more seriously from the beta I think they would be in a much better place. Your passion is obivous and you put in amazing work for these games to try and make them better. Hope you are having a great day. Keep on blasting.
Belonging to the silent majority, I wanted, for once, to take a moment to thank you for your dedication and your hard work. The valuable feedback that you provide clearly helps the game to get better and we are so grateful to have you in this community. You are the GOAT ❤
They should send you a special plaque for doing them and our community such a huge favor. This is why you’re the only d4 content creator whose videos I still watch regularly. Most of the other content creators bitch about the game or only farm views off “d4 bad” or “is d4 fixed?!”. You actually care about the community and the game being the best it can be, a king amongst us sweat lords!👑😭
I purposefully started from level 1 and have been going through the process of leveling and gearing from scratch because I wanted specifically to test how the new gearing system would feel during the early and mid game. Everyone I run into has been lvl 100. Even when I was doing world bosses on world tier 2 at level 35 ish the other people there were level 100 for some reason. No idea why they took the instant level 100 and gear and didn't go to WT4. But I say this to say thank you for also actually doing the testing. I can't know for sure but I get the feeling that most everyone I run into has just never been willing to grind it out all the way to 100 before and are there to see what an actual complete build is like as much as actually testing the new systems.
You saved everyone so much times, im so glad you stick around to extract all these datas from arpgs, please take care and keep up the Fight, we very need you Sir.
Dude tons of respect. You practically did the heavy lifting in terms of data but hopefully since there is a PTR things will be better in that we headed in the right direction
The spanish doctor here again for another thank you note. It has been sad for me this past 2 months, been a console player and only having D4 S3 and last days of POE affliction and not been able to jump on LE. So Rax, again, THANK YOU! Not only for doing this tedious work of testing but for losing time and potentially money in doing so. I know… you dont do it for the money but… either way big thank you. Its already a year since I discover you and 3 months since my last comment. You are probably my only interaction via YT in a comment section but I really think you deserve the credit and the thank you note. I’ll keep watching you for sure even if its not live because of the time difference. Keep it up and GO GET THEM BOYS!😂
Watching you play the game of the whole PTR has convinced me to come back to the game, with all the nice changes coming to the game, and if they make most of these changes. That be very nice.
8:00 Because that's what true random is. There's a story about Apple music shuffling algorithm a while back doing this same thing, people were complaining that they kept getting the same song 2 -3 times in a row and it's not random. So what Apple had to do was instead of having it as true random, had to develop an algorithm to make it seems "random" so that songs wouldn't repeat itself like before. Our brain perceive things in bizarre ways that we don't like, so we say it's wrong or it's sucks, while in fact it's doing exactly what it's suppose to do. Perspective is everything.
Great job testing things that the regular PTR player wouldn't !! :) Can't wait to see them take your feedback and put it in the trashcan XD Narh, I'm actually quite hopeful that they are listening this time around...:D
Ok first off, Rax you are a goddamn legend for doing what you do for the community. Second dear lord 73 vs 33? That is one hell of a disparity that is not even remotely OK. 5, maybe 10 tops between best and worse but 30+? Bro. Also just wanna chime in again until the devs acknowledge it - Rupture is still bugged almost a year later and no word of any fix for it.
As someone who did some real low low level amateur game development some years back, I find stuff like this so incredibly fasinating because it shows idiots like me things I never ever thought of considering when making a game. So yeah you may be helping D4 improve but indirectly you may be helping all game devs look back at their creations and go...dang - bro was on it.
I have so much respect for how in depth this overview is. Personally I'm a numbers guy so love to see this type of content. Thank you for your effort Rax!
One of my favorite videos you’ve done! I’d wouldn’t just rely on exp as a measurement to find value in dungeons. I still think they need to drop specific items each dungeon so they feel different and not the same. Then they would change weekly or daily on What items drop. You might be suggesting Homogeneity unintentionally by asking blizzard to make the exp as close to each other as possible.
Always apricate videos like these when it's being done in an attempt to improve the game. And it gives good insight into how things are currently balanced.
Raxx is out here doing the stuff he knows other people won't, just so those people can have a better experience. Much respect man, we don't deserve you
Hey Raxx, you know you can also put your whole window from google in dark? i see you like the darkmode as well in your excell so you might want to enable that
Thanks for all your work, I am sure you would have mentioned it but did you address the pit material issues where 1-20 gives you the 1st 5 upgrade mats but if you go above 20 you only get upgrade 6-10. So if you have to level new items you have to go back to levels 1-20 - very daft. As you progress thru pit levels you should get a variety of mats
Something I would like changed is the removal of delay for drops after you kill a mob, some mobs have 3-5 seconds death animation. This is specially annoying in helltides. Kill a pack and collect cinders and move on only to see that more cinders dropped because of death animation delay. Stupid decision...
Raxx is straight up an invaluable source of information and feedback for Blizzard and they don't even have to pay him. He basically tested the game like he was an employee. This is the kind of testing that will make the game better. Much respect man
He didn't test it like an employee. He tested it like someone passionate about the game.
@@jameskite8021 and that's the difference maker right there
@@jameskite8021it’s the difference between a passionate fan and a casual game tester.
Imagine someone not working for blizzard doing more for them then themselves. That's where we are, stop buying this crap and paying into the idea is a good one.

Now imagine that he works for free.
For real.
@@mdouet now imagine that you still ignore everything he says
In end he gonna "end" somewhere,he dont gonna stream video games like 47y old dude,its inevitable.In blizz place i would give him job already.
@@NikoRM78They really should…. GGG has hired players and content creators before. Octavian is the most recent.
i'm so glad there are people like you in the community that can help the game become better with their feedbacks .
The goat
He wouldn't have to if the devs actually played and data mined their own game. But thanks Raxx
What's so weird is that some people still manage to complain about Raxx for being nitpicky during a PTR...
People have been giving their feedback years before the game even came out. Blizzard didn't listen.
that's why Raxx is one of the best streamers out there.
You're doing the Lord's work, my dude. We, the community, appreciate it!
This is the devil's work
we, the community. lol settle down bruv
It must be nice for Blizzard to have their hardest working employee for free. They don't even offer him an insurance package.
i hope they dont ingore him.
I think he's said Blizzard could never pay him as much as he makes for being a streamer on Twitch/RUclips. But yeah, the least Blizzard could do is make him a partner or employ him in some capacity to get some sort of benefits.
@@kupwave Nah, best be your own entity in his case and contract with them. Good luck to Rax
And apparently they don't pay their employees...
but they *do* allow him to work from home
im glad you had a paint drawing in the video.
that makes it 10 times better

You need to destroy the explodables in the canal. They count as enemies for whatever reason.

Second dear lord 73 vs 33? That is one hell of a disparity that is not even remotely OK. 5, maybe 10 tops between best and worse but 30+? Bro.
Also just wanna chime in again until the devs acknowledge it - Rupture is still bugged almost a year later and no word of any fix for it.
Been watching since the d3 days buddy and you’re a legend in the community thank you man
You know what I was like in my d3 days do you?
You're the best Raxx, no one is better at advocating for the community's interests. We all appreciate it!
As someone who did some real low low level amateur game development some years back, I find stuff like this so incredibly fasinating because it shows idiots like me things I never ever thought of considering when making a game.
So yeah you may be helping D4 improve but indirectly you may be helping all game devs look back at their creations and go...dang - bro was on it.
I have so much respect for how in depth this overview is. Personally I'm a numbers guy so love to see this type of content. Thank you for your effort Rax!
This is a ton of work. Thanks dude
Damn dude, Blizz owes you for such dedication
Raxx I wanted to thank you for all the time and effort you put into testing the PTR patch. I (and we) appriciate it greatly.
One of my favorite videos you’ve done!
I’d wouldn’t just rely on exp as a measurement to find value in dungeons.
I still think they need to drop specific items each dungeon so they feel different and not the same. Then they would change weekly or daily on What items drop.
You might be suggesting Homogeneity unintentionally by asking blizzard to make the exp as close to each other as possible.
Always apricate videos like these when it's being done in an attempt to improve the game. And it gives good insight into how things are currently balanced.
my dude you are just a god, period. The ammount of effort you put into making these without even being part of the company is insane. Thank you
Raxx is out here doing the stuff he knows other people won't, just so those people can have a better experience. Much respect man, we don't deserve you
This is so useful to me. My son said I was too nerdy to do a ptr but I really think it’s great for both experts and average players to give feedback.
i wasnt able to change my aspect on any items, last day of the ptr.
was playing sorcerer, and all my gear was 12/12. the button to press wasnt there.
I can truly tell you care to put in all this work. I thoroughly appreciate it all. Especially as a casual player. You are a God send!
Just want you to know that is your work is much appreciated i cant express that enough. Hope the best for you!
Thanks Raxx for your commitment to test this version of the game!
Raxx I look forward to your d4 videos more than any other content. Just wanted to say thanks!
Question Rax , what if the dungeon list your running doesn't match next season dungeon list?
Thank you for doing everything you can to make this game better for all of us!
Thank you Raxx and everyone who tested Season 4 for a week and reported everything!
this is incredible! Thank you for taking the time and testing it to this detail, I can only hope Blizz takes it and does something good with it ^^
Hey Raxx, you know you can also put your whole window from google in dark? i see you like the darkmode as well in your excell so you might want to enable that
Ty for testing this. Keep it up.
You're a true treasure dude. You're doing amazing research that could be (has been) overlooked and will genuinely help d4 become a great game.
12:20 But I think this is a conscious decision, there's a +10 Lv cap bonus EXP (iirc it was +15 before) to prevent bizarre power leveling, etc.
Thanks for all your work, I am sure you would have mentioned it but did you address the pit material issues where 1-20 gives you the 1st 5 upgrade mats but if you go above 20 you only get upgrade 6-10. So if you have to level new items you have to go back to levels 1-20 - very daft. As you progress thru pit levels you should get a variety of mats
Something I would like changed is the removal of delay for drops after you kill a mob, some mobs have 3-5 seconds death animation. This is specially annoying in helltides. Kill a pack and collect cinders and move on only to see that more cinders dropped because of death animation delay. Stupid decision...
This 30s event is still in there and a topic since day 1. Thanks for all your work.
This man could single-handedly run Blizzard's QA department
Raxx, with hard work comes dues and praise. Big thanks from our part the Community for all your efforts 👍
Good shit Raxx. Always count on you for the break downs.
What about getting yellows as rewards in the pit when they are useless by that point???
