Diablo 4's first follow-up patch for Season 14 is aimed less at sweeping balance changes and more at cleaning up the season's loot and activity problems. Blizzard's latest Diablo IV patch notes say update 3.1.1 is scheduled to go live on July 14, 2026, with fixes for Mythic Unique drops, Season of Death Awakening rewards and several class-specific bugs.

The most player-facing loot change is a fix for an issue that prevented some sources of Uniques, including Lair Bosses, from dropping as Mythic. Blizzard is also increasing the chance that naturally dropped Mythics are Iconic Mythics. That makes 3.1.1 a direct patch for one of Season 14's biggest loot hooks, since Diablo 4's current season reworked Unique gear around Mythic conversion, fixed affixes and more ways to chase high-end versions of important items.

Patch 3.1.1 is mostly a bug-fix update

Season of Death Awakening launched on June 30 with Pandemonium Ruptures, the Corrupted Reaper, Solo Self Found, Tower leaderboards and the Mythic Uniques 3.0 system. Patch 3.1.1 does not read like a second wave of seasonal content. Instead, it focuses on problems that could block rewards, break objectives or make some parts of the season feel stingier than intended.

Several fixes target seasonal progression and rewards. Deathtoll Chambers will always reward at least one Superior Lair Key in high Torment levels, Corrupted Reaper can now drop up to two Pandemonium Fragments based on Torment level and repeatable Glints of Hope reputation rewards will now guarantee a Pandemonium Fragment. Blizzard is also reducing the Horadric Cube Upgrade to Mythic recipe cost from five Pandemonium Fragments to four.

The patch also fixes an issue where Forgotten Souls were not dropping from Whisper Caches in Torment levels, a problem where only one party member received Tower rewards and a bug that caused part of the Dark Refuge dungeon map to fail to load. Other seasonal fixes cover the Terrorize The Night objective, Nemesis Lair triggers, Rupture portal monster spawns and several Tower Halo display issues.

Class fixes are narrower. The expansion-side notes include Paladin stat display cleanup, Spiritborn fixes for Stinger damage, Fiery Soul visuals and Wyrdskin gloves and several Warlock fixes tied to Soul Shards, Brutal Aspect, Fulcrum of Mefis and Flesh of Abaddon. The base game notes include fixes for Barbarian's Challenging Shout, Druid toggled skills and Rogue's Shadow Clone interaction with Shrine effects.

Blizzard also lists various performance, stability, clipping, texture and wardrobe icon fixes. Diablo 4 patch 3.1.1 arrives two weeks after Season of Death Awakening began, so players looking for a larger rebalance pass may still be waiting beyond July 14. For anyone chasing Mythic gear, though, the drop-source fixes and lower fragment cost are the headline changes in this update.
