As is well known, the pre-order beta of Diablo 4 took place last weekend. Numerous fans were able to plunge into the fray for the first time, not only dealing with technical problems, but also with a legendary boss. While the community is currently gearing up for the big open beta on the coming weekend prepared, there is a big question after the first test phase: Does Diablo 4 a balancing problem? At least this thesis has a well-known streamer placed in the room.
Which streamer are you talking about?
This is the streamer and youtuber “Asmongold”, who has built a certain name in the community. In the past he was one of the biggest streamers of World of Warcraft, he was also very well represented in the MMO competitor Final Fantasy 14. His direct and sometimes very provocative nature was already a cause for concern repeatedly caused a stir. Of course “Asmongold” didn’t let it go, also on Diablo 4 pre-order beta (buy now) to participate and has his opinion a problem uncovered.
Is the barbarian way too weak?
In a video he posted he compares the classes of barbarian and sorcerer. To this end he fights against a boss and stops the time. While he was with the magician takes less than a minuteto bring the boss to his knees, it takes time with the barbarian more than twice as long.

Therefore, “Asmongold” puts forward the thesis that it is currently a balancing issue in Diablo 4 and the sorcerer is either too strong or the barbarian is too weak.
What’s up with the thesis?
Even if the video of “Asmongold” has a relatively significant difference between the two classes shows is the whole thing with some caution to enjoy. Diablo 4 is, after all still in beta statusuntil the release can and will probably change some things. Developer studios use such test phases, among other things, about exactly such balancing problems to detect and eliminate.
