Recently, Compass to Carnage event and patch 2.4.3, originally scheduled for November 4th in Diablo 4 Season 10, have been delayed. This move has sparked discussion among players and disappointed those eagerly anticipating the event and update.
While we understand the developers’ desire to provide a better gaming experience, it’s safe to say that not all players can accept this date change. With Season 10 nearing its end, these actions have left Diablo 4 players somewhat disappointed.

Below, we will introduce the details of the delayed Compass to Carnage event and patch 2.4.3. This information will help you prepare for the update and adapt to the game more quickly.
Patch 2.4.3
Patch 2.4.3 has been delayed until November 12th, a week later than originally planned.
In patch 2.4.3, Diablo 4 has made some adjustments, including:
- Adjusting the purchase confirmation process for Battle Pass Reliquaries to prevent players from accidentally using Platinum.
- The unlock condition for First Aid achievement has been changed to using Healing Potion 1000 times.
In addition, Diablo 4 has fixed some bugs that players have complained about, and these bugs will be removed in this update. You will experience better game performance and more stable visuals.
Compass To Carnage
Compass to Carnage has been delayed longer than patch 2.4.3, and players looking forward to this event will have to wait until November 25th.
During Compass to Carnage event, Diablo 4 will increase the drop rate of Infernal Compass and Aether, and increase the spawn rate of Chaos Waves during Infernal Hordes.
This event is essentially a large-scale monster-hunting event; the more wins you get, the richer the rewards. If you want to reap significant rewards, consider using more suitable weapons and gear to gain greater power and achieve more victories.
It’s worth noting that the event also provides a quick way to boost Viz-Jaq’taar Veneration Reputation, helping players achieve their goals before the season ends to unlock rewards such as Chaos Perks and Diablo 4 Unique Items.
From the event content and mechanics, Compass to Carnage is undoubtedly a worthwhile event to participate in. However, it would be better if it appeared at the beginning of the season.
At this point, approaching the end of Diablo 4 Season 10, most players have either shifted their attention to other games or are thinking about how to quickly build a stronger build in Season 11.
Players would prefer to participate in more exciting and rewarding events rather than boost events that don’t add any new content to the game.
Players are dissatisfied not only with the lackluster event content but also with the timing of the event.
Diablo 4 Season 11 is known to launch on December 9th, while Compass to Carnage event lasts until a week before the new season begins. This means that players will be entering a new season shortly after participating in Compass to Carnage event, leading many to suggest skipping the event and waiting for Season 11.
Furthermore, despite Diablo 4’s official Twitter account hinting at "More Compasses. More Aether. More Chaos", some players have completely lost interest in the event.
Player Opinions
You can find opinions from Diablo 4 players on various platforms regarding the event and the delay of patch 2.4.3. The delay of Compass to Carnage event, in particular, has drawn criticism. Besides the frustration of the long wait, the overly tight event schedule has also discouraged many players from participating.
Many players believe that Compass to Carnage event is more suitable for those who haven’t yet participated in Diablo 4 Season 10 or want to revisit its content; it doesn’t hold much appeal for veteran players who have already participated in the entire season.
In summary, the delays of Diablo 4 Season 10 patch 2.4.3 and Compass to Carnage event have caused widespread dissatisfaction among players. Furthermore, the practice of changing event launch times has led players to question the game developer’s credibility.
Hopefully, Diablo 4 will listen to the players’ feedback and adjust the content and timing of future seasons and events to ensure more reasonable release times for updates and events, providing players with a better gaming experience.
