Diablo 4 patch 1.1.3 reigns in crowd control effects so you're not stuck every 20 seconds

It’s been long enough now since the most recent Diablo 4 patch, which sped up Malignant farming. The patch has been generally well-received, and it’s now time for another, fairly significant update.

Blizzard detailed the next Diablo 4 patch in a blog post. Version 1.1.3 arrives tomorrow, August 29 on all platforms, and it’s also mainly focused on bug fixes and several key balance changes. The headline change here is one that follows a promise Blizzard made in one of its dev streams, and it has to do with the frequency and intensity of crowd control effects (or CCs).

Crowd control effects from certain enemies in Diablo 4 can be particularly aggravating to come across, because of the length of time they leave you unable to react (such as being frozen), especially if you have the misfortune of suffering through multiples of them in quick succession.
