Lightee secures world’s first Uber Lilith kill in Diablo 4 Hardcore

Lightee, who once competed in World of Warcraft esports, became the world's first player to kill Uber Lilith in Diablo 4 Hardcore mode! Read on for details.

Lightee, also known as Ben, achieved victory in the Diablo 4 Echo of Lilith fight, making him the world's first recorded player to do this. He posted the evidence of this accomplishment on Twitch.

Over on Twitter, Lightee celebrated this win and talked about how Diablo 4 exceeded his expectations. He also included a few ideas that could improve gameplay. Ideas included decreased monster crowd control and an update to nightmare dungeon density.

Using his Barbarian character named Spinnywinny, Lightee stacked Whirlwind for damage against Lilith. He also made use of his unique gear such as the Rage of Harrogath chest armor and Temerity pants.

According to Wowhead, the player appeared to take advantage of an odd mechanic. If you keep using Whirlwind right after Wrath of the Berserker, then the Supreme Wrath of the Berserker buff doesn't go away. Your Barbarian's damage keeps increasing based on the amount of Fury spent.

Hardcore mode in Diablo 4 involves permanent character death. This means if your character is killed, then the character and all of their items are gone. If you're ready for a difficult challenge, then you can enable this mode during character creation. Just select the "Hardcore" option.
