Diablo 4’s best player says loot filters ‘need to happen, and soon’ because ‘the amount of trash loot at high levels is daunting’

It is of course a made-up accolade, but there’s a strong argument for Wudijo being the best Diablo 4 player out there: or at the very least the most hardcore. The German scourge of Hell is a veteran Diablo 3 streamer and became the first player to reach level 100 solo in Diablo 4’s hardcore mode (as well as the first to solo world boss Ashava), while making a ton of videos advising players on how to get the most out of their chosen class. Demons: after this guy’s done a day’s work, there’s a lot fewer around.

Wudijo’s been omnipresent in the Diablo 4 community pre- and post-launch, and recently answered a whole load of questions on the Diablo 4 subreddit (including his preferred breakfast choice of “nutella on bread”, which suggests my daughter may grow up to be an ARPG badass). I found it pretty intriguing how he talks about the game, which all comes from the fact that many of us as players flail wildly away at something like Diablo 4 (OK, just me) whereas he’s so clinical about what works and doesn’t and why. It would be surprising if anyone outside of Blizzard knows more about Diablo 4 than Wudijo.
