Spiteful Blood is a new 5-star Legendary Gem in Diablo Immortal, however, players have reported that it does not function as it was designed to.
In Diablo Immortal, you have to collect shattered fragments of the corrupted Worldstone to save the world. As you progress in the game, you need to increase your character’s power and strengths.
One way to do is by procuring and slotting Gems like the Legendary Gem, Spiteful Blood.
Diablo Immortal: Spiteful Blood
On Thursday, 6 July 2023, Blizzard released a major update for Diablo Immortal. The update introduced a new class called the Blood Knight for players to procure, various limited-time events as well as a new Legendary Gem.
Players all know that hunting vampires and thralls requires unrelenting deduction and the right equipment. The game’s developer released a crimson-coated Legendary Gem to celebrate the Blood Knight’s release, which all classes can use.
When taking damage while below 50 percent Life, the Spiteful Blood Legendary Gem will cause Spiteful Blood to surge through your character for 4 seconds.
This effect increases your damage done by 30 percent and it makes you invulnerable to Primary Attacks from other players.
When Spiteful Blood triggers, your character will gain an absorb shield equal to 160 percent of your base damage.
That being said, Spiteful Blood cannot trigger more often than once every 20 seconds. Although it is quite a useful Gem, players have reported that it does not function as it should.
Spiteful Blood bug
On the Blizzard forums, one Diablo Immortal player revealed that he was testing the new Spiteful Blood and any beneficial duration does not extend or reduce the cooldown with it slotted.
The player also claimed that he spent an hour trying everything, and nothing seems to work as it was designed to.
Several players mentioned on the forum that they are experiencing the same issue with the Spiteful Blood bug. At the time of writing this, Blizzard is yet to address the bug, therefore, we recommend that you use the Gem with caution.
Why you should acquire Spiteful Blood
Youtuber, Lida Diablo recently shared a video on the platform about Spiteful Blood. According to him, the Legendary Gem is more overpowered than the new class, Blood Knight.
Lida shared his concern over the Gem’s overpowered effects, which includes a massive damage increase and invulnerability to primary attacks.
Lida questions the balance of this gem and its impact on the player-versus-player game mode. Furthermore, he believes that the Spiteful Blood may be mandatory for competitive players.
How to procure Spiteful Blood
There is currently no known method that you can use to procure the Spiteful Blood Legendary Gem for free. This means that Diablo Immortal players have to purchase the Gem with real money.
If you are interested in purchasing Spiteful Blood, you must open the in-game store and follow the given instructions to complete the purchase.
