The Queue: The RNG will continue until morale improves

Diablo 4 went hard on RNG in the expansion, and it isn’t backing down. But it’s long since hit the point where I’m exhausted of fighting it and getting the “right” piece of gear for my build. And yet the RNG perseveres, when I do not. There is no defeating it; it will always loom over us, in every hour of every day of every game. We are slaves to this torment.

But while I continue to mourn my loot chances, let’s answer some questions. This is the Queue, our daily Q&A column where I make an attempt to answer your questions.


The Queue: Enjoying that summer snowstorm

Why did we come have to come back here? Didn’t we do enough of these otherworldly invasions during Legion? That we now have to come back and do them again, just fighting the Void instead of the Burning Legion?

Apparently not, because now we’re teleporting off to Void “showdowns” in those same places, but at least this one is cool (as in temperature) and will give us a break from the Midsummer Fire Festival (starting this weekend). But still, I could have skipped this. (But I won’t, because there’s new transmog.)

This is the Queue, our daily Q&A column where we do our very best to answer your questions, but our best varies depending on the day. Let’s get to it.
