Blizzard Entertainment Applauds Diablo 4 Player Wudijo’s Solo Victory Against Ashava
PC gaming YouTuber Wudijo finally succeeds in taking down Diablo 4 boss Ashava the Pestilent on his own, after two attempts at it. The earlier attempts took place during March’s beta, where Wudijo fell short of solo victory thanks to two embarrassing kill-steals. However, during the May’s Server Slam playtest, he manages to conquer the feat while being on a lower level, proving himself to be quite the skilled player.
Despite dropping Ashava’s level cap from 25 to 20 in the playtest, and resulting in reduced legendary item drop rates, Wudijo comes out triumphant against Ashava at the higher difficulty level of World Tier 2. It’s not a tough task for Wudijo either, so there’s no real danger for him throughout the fight. In fact, he finishes the boss with almost a minute to spare.
In a video embedded at the beginning of Wudijo’s video, game director Joe Shely lets the audiences know that the Ashava fight was tested to ensure it could be done at level 20, with community development director Adam Fletcher jokingly saying, “And Wudijo, we expect you to solo it,” before congratulating him after he’d done it.
Blizzard President Mike Ybarra thought that since Wudijo accomplished the kill, the developers might now be looking to increase the difficulty rather than dial it back. It’s excellent news for hardcore gamers in preparation for the massive release of Diablo 4.
Wudijo came into the public’s eye as a player for the Hardcore Challenge currently running during Diablo 3’s current season. He gained a solid following on his YouTube channel for streaming Diablo 4’s progress, and now he’s cemented his position as one of its best players, showing the world the true essence of a hardcore champion.
Congratulations to Wudijo on finally claiming that victory against Ashava with Blizzard’s blessing. It will be exciting to see how much of a challenge Diablo 4 can provide for its loyal fans when it releases later this year.
