What is Stat Verdict?

Stat Verdict is a free AI-powered loot analysis tool built for Diablo IV players. Upload a screenshot of any in-game item and get an instant, detailed evaluation — including a grade, build-specific recommendations, and whether you should keep, salvage, or craft the item.

How does the Diablo IV loot analyzer work?

Upload a screenshot of an item tooltip from Diablo IV. The AI reads the image, identifies every stat, affix, and property on the item, then evaluates it against your selected class and build. The result is a letter grade (S through D), a verdict (Keep, Salvage, or Craft), and a detailed breakdown of why.

Is Stat Verdict free to use?

Yes — Stat Verdict is completely free to use. No account required, no subscriptions. Just open the scanner and start analyzing your items.

Are there any usage limits?

To ensure service availability for everyone, there is a reasonable daily scan limit per user that resets every 24 hours. This limit is generous enough for typical gameplay sessions.

Yes. Item screenshots are sent to our secure server for AI processing and are not stored after analysis. Scan history, loadout data, and preferences are all kept locally in your browser — we never have access to them.

Will Stat Verdict support other ARPG games?

Yes! Stat Verdict is focused on making Diablo IV analysis perfect first, but plans to expand to other ARPGs like Path of Exile 2, Last Epoch, Diablo III, and more based on community demand.

Diablo 4 Patch 3.1.3: Easier Objectives & Loot Impact

Patch 3.1.3 eases Season 14 objectives and fixes the Mephisto portal. See what changed — then scan your gear at statverdict.com.

Patch 3.1.3 dropped this week, and if you've been grinding Season 14's Pandemonium Ruptures, you're going to feel the difference immediately. This isn't a splashy content patch — it's a quality-of-life pass that trims the grind on Season objectives and finally squashes the Echo of Mephisto portal bug that's been eating people's runs since 3.1.0. Less friction means faster loops, and faster loops mean more loot flowing through your inventory. Let's break down exactly what changed and how to turn it into a cleaner farming cadence.

What Patch 3.1.3 Actually Changed

Two things matter here, and both are aimed at getting you back into the action quicker.

Easier Season objectives. The Season of Death Awakening objective chain has been retuned. Several of the mid-chain steps — the ones asking you to close a specific number of Pandemonium Ruptures and defeat Realmwalkers — have had their thresholds lowered. Rupture-close counts that used to demand marathon sessions now clear in a fraction of the time, and a few objectives that were gated behind rare spawn conditions now progress off any qualifying activity. If you stalled out partway through the seasonal track, log in and check your journal — you may find you're much closer to the next reward tier than you left off.

The Echo of Mephisto portal fix. This is the big one. Since launch, the Echo of Mephisto encounter had an intermittent bug where the return portal failed to spawn after the kill, occasionally soft-locking you out of collecting your loot or forcing a full instance reset. Patch 3.1.3 fixes the portal spawn reliably, which means Mephisto is back to being a dependable Lair Boss farm — critical, because he's one of your best targeted sources for build-defining Uniques.

Faster Objectives, Faster Farming Cadence

Here's why the objective tuning matters more than it sounds. In Season 14, your seasonal progression isn't just a checklist — it's the gate on your reward flow. Every objective you clear pushes you toward more Rupture-tied rewards, more currency, and more reasons to keep the loop spinning.

With lower thresholds, your effective loop tightens up like this:

Open the map, hit the nearest Pandemonium Rupture — the portal tears spawn across the world, so you're rarely far from one.
Close it, kill the Realmwalker, bank the seasonal credit and loot.
Chain into the next Rupture or peel off to a Lair Boss once you've got materials.

Because the objective counts are shorter, you'll finish reward tiers between boss runs instead of grinding a single objective for an entire session. That's the real win: your XP-per-hour and loot-per-hour both climb, and you spend less time babysitting a counter.

The catch? More loot per hour means more decisions per hour. That's where a quick sanity check on each drop keeps you from drowning. Screenshot anything that looks promising and scan your gear at statverdict.com — you'll get an instant S/A/B/C/D grade so you can keep moving instead of squinting at affix rolls mid-run.

Where to Farm Mythics Post-3.1.1/3.1.3

The Mythic Unique hunt got noticeably healthier over the last few patches. Two sources stand out right now.

Lair Bosses (especially Echo of Mephisto)

With the portal fix live, Lair Bosses are back to being your most targeted Mythic path. Remember how Mythics work this season: any Unique at 850+ Item Power can be transmuted into a Mythic Unique via the Horadric Cube, and the output always lands in the same gear slot as the input. That makes high-IP Unique farming from bosses doubly valuable — even a "wrong" Unique for your build is potential Mythic crafting fuel for that slot.

Since 3.1.1 tightened up drop reliability, Mephisto, Duriel, and the other summonable bosses give you predictable shots at the 850+ Uniques you need to feed the Cube. Prioritize the boss whose loot table overlaps your target slot.

Pandemonium Ruptures & Realmwalkers

Ruptures are your volume source. Realmwalkers drop generous Unique loot, and with faster objective completion you'll be closing far more Ruptures per session than before. You won't target a specific Unique here the way you can at a Lair Boss, but the sheer throughput means more 850+ candidates hitting your stash — and more raw material for enchanting.

Don't sleep on that enchanting angle. This season enchanting works on Uniques and Mythic Uniques, and any affix you add to a Mythic comes in max-rolled. So a Rupture-farmed Unique that's almost right can become perfect after a Cube transmute and a single enchant.

Keep vs. Salvage When You're Clearing Fast

Blitzing objectives is great until your stash is a wall of yellow and orange. Here's the discipline that keeps your farm efficient:

Never salvage Magic or Rare items with Greater Affixes. Those are Horadric Cube crafting candidates. A Rare with the right Greater Affix on a key stat — think Critical Strike Damage, Vulnerable Damage, or a class core stat — is worth more at the Cube than in the salvage pile.
Keep every Unique at 850+ IP. Even off-build Uniques are Mythic fuel for their slot. Remember all Uniques now drop with 2 guaranteed affixes, so the floor on their usefulness is higher than it used to be.
Salvage low-IP Uniques and non-Greater-Affix Rares once you've got a gear baseline — they're mats, not upgrades.
When in doubt, don't guess. The line between "keep" and "salvage" gets blurry when you're moving fast and tired.

That last point is exactly the friction Stat Verdict removes. Instead of stopping to compare tooltips, snap a screenshot and run it through statverdict.com — you'll know in seconds whether a drop is an upgrade for your build or Cube fodder. When you're chaining Ruptures and boss runs back to back, that instant verdict is what keeps your cadence from stalling.

The Bottom Line

Patch 3.1.3 is a grind-smoother, not a game-changer — and that's a good thing. Lower objective thresholds tighten your farming loop, the Echo of Mephisto fix restores a top-tier targeted Mythic source, and post-3.1.1 drop reliability means both Lair Bosses and Ruptures are pulling their weight. Feed those 850+ Uniques into the Horadric Cube, protect your Greater Affix Rares, and let enchanting close the gap on your Mythics.

The faster you clear, the faster the loot piles up — so make every drop count. Screenshot your gear and scan it at statverdict.com to know instantly what's an upgrade and what's crafting fuel. Happy hunting.
