Diablo 4 players warn of bugged Barbarian Unique in Season 7

Diablo 4 players have warned of a bug that breaks the functionality of the new Barbarian Unique, Mantle of Mountain’s Fury, that Blizzard introduced in Season 7.

Blizzard developers unleashed Season 7 on Tuesday, January 21, complete with a witchcraft theme thatgives Diablo 4 players new powerswith which they can experiment.

As with past seasonal updates, Season of Witchcraft also added a whole host ofnew Unique items, with all six character classes receiving at least one.

Notably, Barbarian mains were treated to chest armor named Mantle of Mountain’s Fury. This powerful item favors Hammer of the Ancients/Earthquake builds, since any Earthquakes the hammer passes through “explode for their total damage and are consumed,” according to the in-game item description.

Unfortunately, players have found that the Unique armor is not working as intended. Diablo content creatorRob2628showed proof of the item’s ineffectiveness during a Twitch stream, noting that the exploding Earthquakes do not actually damage enemies.

“The chest doesn’t work, it explodes the Earthquakes but it doesn’t do any damage,” the streamer said of the Barbarian’s Mantle of Mountain’s Fury Unique.

Other Diablo 4 players exploring Season 7 content have encountered the same issue, which suggests the bug may be pretty widespread.

“New unique chest for barbarian is bugged. The explosion does 0 damage,” one person explained in a Blizzard Feedback post onReddit.

In a different thread,another Diablo usersaid they recall the item working just fine during theSeason 7 PTR. So why the Barbarian Unique is suddenly broken now is anyone’s guess.

As of writing, it is unclear if any of the other Uniques were broken between the PTR and the update’s full release.
