News Tag: Diablo 4 Gold

With Diablo 4 2.5.0 PTR coming to an end at 11:00 AM on October 28th, it's time to take a break from the excitement of previewing Season 11 and focus on finishing up Season 10, especially with the game introducing two new events specifically for this occasion.

These two events are Mother's Blessing and Seasonal Splendor. The former is a long-standing favorite for all Diablo 4 loyalists, while the latter is a brand-new addition to Season 10 Chaos Perks mechanic.

Interestingly, both events coincide with Halloween 2025, but Diablo 4 doesn't seem to be planning any Halloween-themed events, either through these events or through additional new events, which may be puzzling.

With this in mind, we'll provide a detailed introduction to each of these events and analyze the lack of a dedicated Halloween Diablo 4 event.

Mother's Blessing For The End Of Season 10

Mother's Blessing is a recurring event in the game that occurs almost every season, typically mid-to-late in the season. It accelerates you to complete character leveling or Season Journey before the end of the season.

This Mother's Blessing begins on October 28, 2025. While a specific end date has not yet been announced, it will probably last for one to two weeks (a week is more likely).

During Mother's Blessing, you'll receive a 35% increase in XP earned from completing battles, and a 50% increase in Diablo 4 gold drops. This will help you level up your character or Paragon board faster and accumulate more resources.

Note: If you own buffs like Elixirs, you can use them simultaneously during Mother's Blessing. This will combine the benefits of both buffs, accelerating your progress through Season Journey and Reliquary Battle Pass, allowing you to unlock higher-level rewards.

Additionally, during Mother's Blessing, completing Tree of Whispers bounties will earn you bonus Gift of the Tree caches when you turn in Favors.

Seasonal Splendor Event

This event begins the same day as Mother's Blessing and is expected to end on November 3rd. Its purpose is to increase the amount of Infernal Warp you receive through battles during this week.

This item can be used to upgrade your Seasonal Power Chaos Perks. Exclusive to Season 10, you can equip up to four Chaos Perks of varying rarities per battle, boosting the power of your character and builds.

The more Infernal Warp you possess, the stronger your Chaos Perks and, ultimately, your character. To maximize the benefits of the Seasonal Splendor event, you should choose the most efficient way to farm Infernal Warp during this period.

Currently, you can obtain this item by finding Chaos Rifts spawning in Helltides and Nightmare Dungeons. Infernal Warp is dropped by monsters in rifts, and the rewards for sealing rifts also include Infernal Warp.

In Helltides, Chaos Rifts spawn randomly and can be identified and found by their icons on the minimap. However, this farming method is highly random and requires competition with other players, so Nightmare Dungeons are more recommended.

First, Nightmare Dungeons are privately created and cannot be entered by others. Second, when you add Infernal Warp Reserve affix to a dungeon, Infernal Warp is guaranteed to drop after the battle is completed.

Why Are There Still No Halloween-Specific Events?

In fact, not just this year, Diablo 4 has not held any special Halloween-themed events since its launch. Honestly, this is quite strange, as Diablo 4 already has many horror elements that are well-suited to Halloween, and it would be a shame not to utilize them.

Holiday celebrations not only enhance the festive atmosphere in the game, but also provide additional playable events and festive decorations to enrich your game collection.

Both the player community and developers have shared ideas and concepts for Halloween events in Diablo 4 across various platforms, most of which are quite interesting and definitely worth implementing.

The most famous of these was probably the Headless Horseman, proposed by Diablo 4's lead combat designer, Owen Leach. He envisioned this enemy, like Butcher, randomly dropping into Sanctuary during Halloween, offering both frights and rewards.

However, two years after its release, none of these ideas have been implemented into the game, which is a bit of a shame. But it's not just Halloween; while Diablo 4 holds a fair number of events annually, few of them embody the elements and atmosphere of the real holidays.

It seems that for Diablo 4, simply having an event to celebrate is enough; the event itself doesn't need to forcefully reflect the characteristics of a real holiday. Take, for example, Midwinter Blight event held last December.

While this might feel a bit unfortunate, from another perspective, it makes the game feel less connected to the real world and more distant, making every story about Sanctuary feel like it actually happened in another world, not just fiction.

Whether you agree with this or not, this is indeed what makes Diablo 4 unique. Every game should have something irreplaceable that makes it unforgettable, right?

Regardless of how Diablo 4 plans its Halloween season, you can't miss Mother's Blessing and Seasonal Splendor events. These events are about to start, so get ready! And Season 11 is expected to launch on December 9th!

There's no Halloween event for Diablo 4, but don't worry, IGGM has an exclusive Halloween discount for you! Until November 5th, use the holiday promo code "HW2025" to enjoy 8% off IGGM Diablo 4 products!

Diablo 4 PTR 2.5.0 will bring a host of dramatic yet exciting changes, revising many fundamental aspects of the game, including armor and potions. As the pinnacle of the game, Mythic items are also receiving some buffs.

Knowing that not all Mythic items are useful, will the adjustments in Season 11 make some previously useless Mythic items useful again? Let's take a look at the core changes they've received in PTR.

Melted Heart Of Selig

• Change: Added an effect that increases your primary resource by 3% per point in your primary stat.

This is the most impactful item change of the season, as it grants all classes a mana shield-like effect, allowing you to treat your resources like a second health bar.

Since late-game characters typically have around 2000 primary stats, this represents a 6000% increase in the resource cap. Combined with the base resource attributes, your resource pool can easily reach tens of thousands of points. However, items will first use resources to absorb damage. You need to maximize resource generation and utilize out-of-combat resource recovery mechanics or immunities to keep the resources at a healthy level, or you will be very vulnerable.

Many of the percentage-based recovery and resource consumption effects listed in the patch notes have been capped to prevent them from being overpowered or completely incompatible with Melted Heart of Selig.

Ahavarion Spear Of Lycander

• Changes: Unchanged.

While it hasn't received any changes, it is a beneficiary of the Season 11 defense system changes. With the new defense system's uncapped resistances, the all-resistance and movement speed bonuses provided by Ahavarion Spear of Lycander have become more valuable.

Furthermore, its Lucky Shot recovery of 66% of primary resources modifier has not been nerfed. If your build relies on Lucky Shots, Melted Heart of Selig and Ahavarion Spear of Lycander will provide a next-level survivability boost. This item has great potential for speedrunning low-level The Pit or Torment IV, but may not be useful for high-level The Pit.

Shattered Vow

• Changes: Increased the duration of damage over time from 44% to 111%.

Shattered Vow acts as a direct damage multiplier, especially for spells that consume DoTs, with virtually no downside.

This significantly improves Spiritborn builds (such as Pestilent Swarm and Touch of Death). Barbarian builds with Rend or Bleeding may also consider using this item, as Barbarians have more weapon slots.

Tyrael's Might

• Changes: Updated the All Resistance attribute to +80 All Resistance, and changed the resistance percentage to Maximum Resistance.

Tyrael's Might is expected to become a top-tier defensive item. Combined with the new system, it significantly increases resilience to elemental damage. Furthermore, officials indicate that there will be stronger monsters, longer encounters, and a slower game process - all those will make this type of pure defensive item more valuable.

Andariel's Visage

• Changes: Removed the inherent poison resistance reduction and increased the maximum poison resistance to +666 poison resistance.

Andariel's Visage's exceptionally high poison resistance makes it nearly immune to poison damage, and its health-on-hit modifier has skyrocketed in value in Season 11, with the overall healing nerf. It provides powerful instant regeneration for multi-attack builds.

Furthermore, with the nerf to Masterworking, the attack speed and strong regeneration provided by Andariel's Visage are less than before, which will narrow the gap between it and Harlequin Crest.

Ring of Starless Skies

• Changes: Unchanged.

Due to its excellent and versatile stats (core skill damage, attack speed, critical strike chance, and resource cost reduction), it remains a top-tier pick. While Masterworking nerfs have reduced its absolute stat boost, its position remains strong.

Doombringer

• Changes: Unchanged.

The bonus health and damage reduction provided by Doombringer, along with its special Lucky Hit heal, are invaluable in the current heal-scarce meta. Doombringer is a solid choice for solving defensive problems, especially in hardcore modes or scenarios where survivability is crucial.

Heir Of Perdition

• Changes: Unchanged.

Heir of Perdition remains a top-tier helm. However, like Ring of Starless Skies, it has been impacted by Masterworking nerf, causing it to lose ground to other Diablo 4 mythic items.

Harlequin Crest

• Changes: Unchanged.

The damage reduction, + All Skill Levels, and armor provided by Harlequin Crest are all valid in Season 11. However, with the nerf to Masterworking, its cooldown reduction stat won't reach its previous maximum. For builds heavily reliant on cooldown reduction, it may revert from a game-changer to a very powerful item.

Shroud Of False Death

• Changes: Unchanged.

The +1 to all passive skills provided by Shroud of False Death is extremely powerful, typically providing a 50-70% damage increase and a host of utility and defensive stats.

While its resource generation and all-stat affixes synergize well with Melted Heart of Selig, some builds may opt for Tyrael's Might for ultimate defense in extremely challenging situations.

The Grandfather

• Changes: Unchanged.

The Grandfather grants a 100% increase in critical hit damage, but this effect requires 100% critical hit chance to fully function, which is more challenging given the increased difficulty of stacking critical hit chance in the new patch.

When a player's gear has reached its peak through Divine system and can no longer be improved through unique items, The Grandfather, a Diablo 4 item with excellent stats and no conflicts, may be the ultimate upgrade.

Nesecem, The Herald

• Changes: Unchanged.

While Nesecem, The Herald appears powerful, its performance is anything but. Its effect only marks one enemy, making it practically useless in combat. Furthermore, it's a two-handed weapon, requiring two slots, sacrificing significant damage to use it, making it practically unsuitable for Spiritborn builds. However, it's not entirely without value. If you're planning to buy Diablo 4 gold, selling it could net you hundreds of millions of gold, though it won't be as valuable as the other items.

Diablo 4 PTR 2.5.0 changes have successfully increased the value and usability of most Mythic items. While Nesecem, The Herald remains a minor drawback, overall, players will have more meaningful choices when building their gear, and you can test it out on PTR.

Diablo 4 Season 10 was an absolutely fantastic season. Chaos Armor significantly increased the power of various builds, resulting in The Pit generally ranking higher this season than in Season 9. However, many casual players aren't chasing high level The Pit, often stopping as soon as they reach level 100.

This season, reaching level 100 is also much faster than before, allowing you to clear a map in under a minute. Let's take a look at the fastest and most enjoyable builds.

Rank 1 Death Trap Rogue

While Rogue was frustrating at the start of Season 10, the recent patch has completely saved the class. You can take advantage of the significantly improved Chaos Perk - Hit and Run. This Perk allows you to stack damage while moving (up to 9 stacks), dealing massive damage.

You simply need to keep moving to deal damage, and Death Trap skill can gather monsters and instantly eliminate them. You can spam Death Traps all over the map, and the server will struggle to keep up with your spamming.

On open maps, Death Trap Rogue can achieve an astonishing 45-second clearance. A potential drawback to this build is that your armor or resistances won't reach their maximum, forcing you to dodge monster attacks. However, if you can clear monsters in a few seconds, this shouldn't be a problem.

Rank 2 Raven Companion Druid

Raven Companion Druid relies on auto-aiming with Raven skill. The auto-aiming mechanic works great on a controller. This build is perfect for dead gamers because it's a one-button, easy-to-use build.

If you want to boost your damage, you can use the perk to Snapshot, but it's not necessary, and your Raven is already devastating enough. In 100 The Pit, it took only about a minute to clear the entire map. Despite its high damage, its Diablo 4 item requirements aren't too high, meaning it still has plenty of damage even without Mythic items.

Rank 3 Evade Thunderspike Spiritborn

Evade Spiritborn's core ability is Thunderspike. Evade resets its cooldown, and automatically unleashes Thunderspike whenever you dodge, balancing efficiency and damage.

This build excels not only in speed, but has already reached 140 The Pit. While not as fast as the previous two builds, it's still very fast, with an average time of around two and a half minutes on The Pit 120. This build is also well-suited for casual players, as it's relatively simple and highly effective.

Rank 4 Bone Spirit Necromancer

Bone Spirit Necromancer's main gameplay is using Bone Spirit to launch Bone Splinters, creating a high AoE damage around the player. The core of this build is Gospel of the Devotee paired with Shattered Spirit's Aspect. These two items give you a powerful way to deal damage. To further increase your damage, you'll need to farm Chaos Armor.

You can also use Jah Rune to replace dodge with a mage-like teleport ability, combining high area damage for fast movement and clearing. This build is generally very efficient, with a Pit 100 clear time of around 90 seconds.

Rank 5 Lunging Strike Barbarian

Lunging Strike Barbarian primarily uses Lunging Strike for attack and movement. Use War Cry skills to boost your damage and utilize Jah Rune for continuous movement.

While Lunging Strike Barbarian deals decent damage, it relies heavily on melee combat and, compared to other classes, requires more time to pause and attack to deliver damage. It takes about two minutes to clear Pit 100, and its boss fights in high-level The Pit take significantly longer.

Rank 6 Ball Lightning Sorcerer

Ball Lightning Sorcerer is known for its fast movement and screen-clearing abilities. You can use your Teleport skill to move at high speeds while simultaneously releasing ball lightning to clear monsters in its path.

While Ball Lightning Sorcerer is highly efficient for leveling and farming Diablo 4 items, it requires multiple hits to kill elite monsters at Pit 100, while other top-tier builds can instantly dispatch them.

While it can still reach Pit 100, it takes over two minutes, significantly slower than other builds. However, it remains an excellent speedrunning build for lower-tier levels like The Pit or Torment IV.

The above rankings don't represent the actual performance of these classes in The Pit. If builds that adjust The Pit were ranked, the ranking would be as follows:

• Evade ‍Thunderspike Spiritborn (140 The Pit)
• Pulverize Druid (135 The Pit)
• Bone Spirit Necromancer (126 The Pit)
• Death Trap Rogue (124 The Pit)
• Hydra Sorcerer (124 The Pit)
• Lunging Strike Barbarian (122 The Pit)

If you're simply aiming for The Pit Rank, then every player should play Spiritborn. However, even if you manage to reach 150 The Pit, you won't receive any unique rewards. Therefore, it is crucial to choose a class and build that you enjoy.

Of course, high-level The Pit also tests a player's mastery and development of their build. If your gear isn't top-notch, you won't even be able to reach the bottom of the leaderboard. If you also want to challenge The Pit, you can buy Diablo 4 gold and items at IGGM.com to complete your build as quickly as possible.

How's your Season Journey progressing in Diablo 4 Season 10? As we all know, each Season Journey system provides players with a set of directions and objectives from the early stages of the game to the endgame, divided into seven chapters, each of which provides a rough guide to the player's progress.

Season Journey objectives are wide-ranging, and the challenge increases as the chapters progress. However, each chapter of Season Journey only requires completing a certain number of objectives to complete and receive generous rewards.

The Destroyer Chapter

So, here we want to show you how to complete the final chapter of Season 10: The Destroyer. More importantly, completing this final chapter also rewards you with Resplendent Spark, which is why this chapter is so important.

Destroyer Chapter has a total of seven objectives, but players generally only need to complete six of them to receive the rewards.

Before we begin, I must remind you that many objectives in Season 10 require players to equip at least one piece of Chaos Armor. If you haven't already, heading to Torment III and farming Bartuc boss is the most efficient option. Without further ado, let's take a look at all the objectives for completing this chapter!

1. Entropy

The first objective, which should be easy to complete, is Entropy: you need to deactivate 15 Chaos Rifts within 30 minutes.

That sounds like a lot, but it's not. The fastest way to complete it is to obtain or craft three Nightmare Sigils with Chaos Rifts affix and farm them in Nightmare Dungeons.

Why three? Because in Torment IV, each Nightmare Dungeon contains five Chaos Rifts. Depending on your luck, you might even encounter some smaller dungeons that will allow you to complete this objective in a shorter time. Generally speaking, the only dungeon type you should avoid is the one in Nahantu, as those are larger and require more time to explore.

2. Chaos In Hell

The second objective you should complete quickly is Chaos in Hell: This requires you to wear Chaos Armor, reach the maximum Threat level, and kill 200 monsters before Hellborne arrives.

Threat level is a measure of Helltide's danger level. It increases as you kill stronger monsters and unlock Tortured Gifts of Mysteries. Once you reach max level, it depletes, summoning Hellborne.

The strategy for this season is simple. Before you reach max level, you need to find a Chaos Rift, preferably of Rare or Legendary rarity. Killing any monster in a Chaos Rift is a breeze, but most importantly, if you successfully kill a Chaos Bringer, you can steal its power. This makes killing those 200 monsters much easier.

Once you've sealed Chaos Rift, continue on your way, killing as many enemies as possible, making sure not to miss any that spawn from Hellwyrms. Following this method, you should be able to reach the goal on your first try.

3. Lootmaster

The third objective, and perhaps the easiest to complete in The Destroyer Chapter, is Lootmaster: you need to open 10 Tortured Gifts in a single Tortured Gifts run in Torment 4 Helltide.

To complete this objective, you must first disable Cross-Network Play in the options menu. This reduces the number of online players, eliminates issues like lag and stuttering, and makes farming Chaos Rifts much smoother.

Next, of course, you should enter a freshly refreshed Helltide, or at least when it has 40 minutes left, so you have plenty of time to collect Cinders and open chests.

Note that the only activity you need to do is farm Chaos Rifts, regardless of type. The average Chaos Rift in Torment 4 gives you about 40 Cinders, but because you're also killing monsters between rifts, you'll quickly rack up hundreds of Cinders.

But that's it. Once you've collected around 1,000 Cinders, open all the chests you can, except for Mysteries Chests, as they're very expensive. Aim to open any chest that costs 75-150 Cinders.

One final piece of advice, of course, is to avoid dying, as you'll lose your hard-earned Cinders. But if you do die, you can still complete the objective as long as you have time.

In short, once you open your 10th Tortured Gift, you'll receive a notification that the objective has been completed, and you're done.

4. Mastery Maker

Next, let's look at Mastery Maker objective: you need to complete five Torment 4 Local Events with Mastery within 30 minutes.

To complete this objective, I recommend heading to Helltide and farming the orange circles that appear in Helltide. I strongly recommend disabling Cross-Network Play as well, as some players can complete them before you reach the event, which is not a pleasant experience.

Another method is to farm the events that appear in Nightmare Dungeon. The only problem is that these events are sometimes difficult to find, and sometimes triggering them requires clicking on a treasure chest, well, corpse, or other obscure object.

5. Bloodstained Chaos

The fifth objective on this list is Bloodstained Chaos: you need to collect 1,000 Aether from a single Infernal Hordes encounter in Torment 4 while wearing Chaos Armor.

The first step to completing this objective is to obtain a 10-Wave Infernal Compass, simply because the more waves you play, the greater your chance of collecting Aether.

Last but not least, you need to complete every Chaos Wave that appears, as each wave offers a large amount of Aether. If you happen to encounter The Butcher, killing him will even give you 100 Aether instantly!

6. With Sand To Spare

Another objective to earn rewards is With Sand to Spare: it requires you to complete The Pit at level 75 or higher in under 10 minutes. This objective shouldn't be difficult regardless of your build.

To survive The Pit, it's crucial to ensure your resistances are maxed out and your armor is at 1000 at Tier 4. Additionally, upgrade your gems to the highest level and Masterwork all your gear to level 12.

Additionally, you'll need to master your tactics, avoid death, avoid ground effects, and use Shrines to your advantage.

Completing these six objectives will complete The Destroyer Chapter and earn your rewards. Rewards include:

• Guardian Of The Sanguine Grove (Emblem)
• Chaotic, Warlord (Player Titles)
• 1 Resplendent Spark
• 4 Smoldering Ashes

7. Pinnacle Of Chaos

Finally, there's another objective in The Destroyer Chapter. While it's not required, if you're a season completer or just want to complete it, the final and most difficult objective in Season 10 is Pinnacle of Chaos: defeat Lilith while wearing Chaos Armor in Torment 4.

Since Diablo 4 Season 10 removed the boss's invincibility phase, this goal is now achievable, and if you're willing to invest more Diablo 4 gold to increase your character's DPS, you can even kill Lilith with one hit.

So there's no specific strategy here; just upgrade your gear to the highest level and ensure your attack power is at least billions to have a chance of defeating Lilith. A good way to measure this is to see if you can beat The Pit at level 95 or higher.

In addition to dealing damage, in Torment 4, you also need to max out your resistances and boost your armor to 1000, as a single hit from Lilith will probably kill you. So, don't worry about movement speed or anything else; just deal as much damage as possible and finish her off.

Finally, completing this objective isn't necessary, but if you make the effort and kill Lilith, congratulations! You've officially completed all objectives in Season 10 Season Journey!

To be honest, besides the enticing rewards in Season Journey, challenging and defeating Uber Lilith has always been a pursuit for countless players, as it proves their prowess.

Regardless, now's the perfect time to push your limits. If you want to improve your win rate, in addition to the above, you can also buy safe and affordable IGGM Diablo 4 Gold to quickly upgrade your equipment and increase your character's damage, enabling you to kill Lilith with one blow!

Today, we're discussing the best build for Necromancer players in Diablo 4 Season 10. It's Shadow Bone Storm Necromancer, which uses the shadow-tagged Bone Storm as its primary damage source while also creating devastating Tornadoes for exceptional DPS and screen-clearing damage!

Honestly, Shadow Bone Storm Necromancer build will definitely hold its own higher in the season 10 leaderboards as the game progresses, as its superior survivability and mobility will allow you to go further in the endgame.

If we had to choose a rival build, it would probably be Chain Lightning Sorcerer build. However, if we're focusing solely on its suitability in Infernal Hordes, we still recommend Bone Storm Necromancer. Because this build leverages the seasonal mechanic, Bone Storm, your ultimate, becomes a continuously usable core ability, allowing you to spawn Tornadoes almost continuously, instantly killing enemies before they can react. It's insane!

So, how do you build this S-tier Shadow Bone Storm Necromancer? Let's take a look from our perspective!

Tornado Summoning

First, how do you summon so many Tornadoes? This is a very common question. Actually, it's all thanks to the new Chaos Perk in Season 10, Alter the Balance.

This unique power transforms your basic core abilities into ultimate abilities with cooldowns, while also making your basic ultimate abilities core abilities with no cooldown but costing Essence. This is also how you get Shadow Bone Storm, turning it into a primary damage source for Tornado spamming.

Normally, it doesn't have the same effects as Shadow, but you can convert it into Shadow, gaining all the non-physical damage and all Shadow stats we'll be getting.

Chaos Perks

As for Chaos Perks, you can run Marred Guard for extra armor, as this build is definitely more fragile than Sorcerer, but if you're just doing Torment 4, that's fine.

You can also run Decimating Desecration, which significantly boosts your DoT damage by an amount equal to your critical strike chance. Ideally, you should aim for 100% critical strike chance in this build. Of course, you can also guarantee critical strikes with specific rune combinations.

Crazy Brew is also a good option. It converts your Healing Potions into Chaos effects, providing a powerful buff to all classes and reducing resource costs by 100%. So, I actually highly recommend targeting Crazy Brew, as it gives you insane attack speed. More importantly, it's how you cover the entire screen with Tornado.

If you're interested in farming The Pits, I also recommend Alternating Alterations, which enhance your core skills, increasing damage and partially refunding the resource cost of your next non-channeled core skill after using another core skill. With this Chaos Perk, Bone Storm Necromancer is absolutely capable of running The Pits 100+.

Skill Setups

Next, let's take a look at the skills required for Shadow Bone Storm Necromancer and why we should use them.

In most cases, all you really need to do is use Bone Storm. The remaining skills are chosen simply because they are Darkness Skills that gain bonuses when equipped.

As for Book of the Dead, this provides new powers for customizing your Necromancer minions - or sacrificing them for their abilities. This allows us to not only deal increased Shadow damage, but also gain the bonus of Skeletal Mages, meaning Overpowered damage.

Golem Sacrifice can also be used to gain additional critical damage, and sacrificing a summoned golem provides a permanent passive benefit.

Gear

Regarding the gear choices for this build, I must state upfront that we're not considering Diablo 4 gold cost here; we're more focused on getting the most out of it.

First, we'll be using Lidless Wall constantly. This allows us to trigger Lucky Hits and a chance to summon Bone Storm again when we activate Bone Storm.

Also, we'll encounter all sorts of crazy Tornadoes in the game, and you'll need to leverage Bone Storm to deal double damage. Fists of Fate is a great addition here, granting you a ton of attack speed and critical hits, and it also has a chance to crowd control enemies with Lucky Hits, which is definitely useful.

Then we'll be using the Banished Lord's Talisman, as it's a core skill that guarantees Overpowering your next core skill after spending your primary resource, and Overpowered Critical Strikes deal even more damage.

Reaper's Pursuit is here simply to deal more damage with Ebonpiercer. We've also thrown in an add-on item I think is pretty cool, called Bloodless Scream. It boosts the level of our Darkness Skills. Then, we use Aspect of Ultimate Shadow to transform Bone Storm into a Darkness Skill.

Next, we focus on Finality, which increases damage dealt by 5% for 8 seconds after casting your Ultimate Skill, allowing our Tornado to deal more damage.

After that, we absolutely must use Aspect of Shielding Storm, as it boosts our survivability. Every time Bone Storm damages an enemy, you gain a shield equal to 1-8% of your maximum health for 10 seconds. You can also use Amulets to maximize your health, but if you want more damage, use any item that increases damage.

Finally, Ring of Starless Skies remains one of the best Mythic Unique Rings in the game. It reduces the resource cost of skills by consuming primary resources, increasing our damage by up to 50% for a short period of time. Meanwhile, engraving Aspect of Apogeic Furor on your gear can help you quickly increase the power of your character's Ultimate Skill.

In short, Shadow Bone Storm Necromancer combines Chaos Perks, critical damage scaling, and efficient cooldown management to deliver exceptionally high damage output. Its consistent screen clearing capabilities not only make this build highly efficient for farming gold, gear, and other resources, but also allow it to quickly dispatch even the most formidable Torment bosses.

However, as mentioned earlier, this high-DPS build requires optimized ultimate gear and Chaos Uniques, necessitating a high gold budget. If your gold inventory is running low, the large quantity of cheap and fast-delivering Diablo 4 Gold for sale on IGGM is sure to provide the relief you need!

At the beginning of every new season, Seasonal Reputation system is always a top priority for players, as it's the fastest way to obtain essential resources like unique items and Resplendent Sparks, which are crucial for crafting powerful Mythic Unique items and increasing character levels. Diablo 4 Season 10 is no exception.

In Season 10, farming Seasonal Reputation remains the best way to obtain all valuable items, including Mythic Uniques, Chaos Armor, and Infernal Hordes Compasses.

More importantly, by maximizing your Reputation gains, you can earn additional resources and even transfer these gains to other characters, accelerating your overall power and gear acquisition. This is why countless players are constantly searching for ways to optimize their Reputation farming.

But speeding up your reputation farming in Diablo 4 is actually quite simple: simply keep searching for Chaos Rifts as they spawn in Helltide and close them. This will earn you Seasonal Reputation and the seasonal currency known as Infernal Warp, which you can redeem for Reputation, and then exchange your Reputation for caches containing valuable loot.

Unlocking And Upgrading Seasonal Blessings

To maximize your farming gains, the first thing you need to do is make sure you use up Smoldering Ashes for the season to unlock and upgrade specific Seasonal Blessings. In fact, all Blessings, with the exception of Urn of Blazing Infernal, contribute to your reputation.

3 Effective Ways To Explore Chaos Rifts

Also, before you get started, there's one more thing to note. Lately, many players have been complaining about being stuck and feeling lost while traversing Helltide. Here are some tips to help with this.

First and foremost, remember that Chaos Rifts constantly spawn. Therefore, it's quite difficult to use up all of these rifts on a single interactive map.

1. Scourt The Map Thoroughly

So if you're having trouble finding spawned rifts, our first suggestion is to scout the map more thoroughly, as you might only be focusing on nearby Chaos Rifts.

2. Head To Another Area Within Helltide

If that doesn't work, you can try moving to another area within Helltide. Helltide always consists of at least two areas. In one of these areas, you'll find Whisper objectives, and this area is usually more crowded.

But if you're looking for a slightly less crowded area, you can go to another area. This area still has Chaos Rifts, but since there's no Tree of Whispers, it's less crowded, and naturally, there won't be as much Diablo 4 gold and loot to farm.

3. Quickly Travel To And From Helltide Via Portals

Finally, the quickest way to resolve this issue is to use a portal to teleport out of Helltide, wait outside for about 5-10 seconds, and then use the return portal to teleport back. This will bring you to a new stage, a new instance of the area.

However, the chance of encountering a rift using this method is entirely reliant on random chance. If you're lucky, a Chaos Rift will appear in this new instance; if you're unlucky, this still won't solve the problem.

Finally, I should mention that you can disable online play in the main menu settings, which theoretically reduces the number of players competing with you. However, this method may not work for every player.

How To Farm?

Once you've lucked out and found Chaos Rifts, it's time to get started with the looting process.

Choose Higher Rarity Chaos Rifts

First and foremost, it's recommended that you prioritize higher-rarity Chaos Rifts. For example, if I open a map and see five different rifts, I'll always choose Legendary Chaos Rifts, as they have a chance of giving me Chaos Armor, and Mythic Chaos Rifts, which have a small chance of giving me a Mythic Unique item.

So, if you see multiple rifts on the map, immediately hover your mouse over them to check their rarity, and try to prioritize Legendary or even Mythic rarity.

As for Magic and Rare Rifts, I don't think there's much difference between them, so the choice is yours.

Regardless, you should be happy to see any type of rift, and you should always try to open and close them for reputation building.

Choosing Useful Buffs

Now, one thing that's very important when building reputation in Season 10 is buffs.

You may have noticed that when you deal Chaos Rifts, a purple icon appears on your buff bar. This buff is mostly useless, but can be extremely useful in certain situations.

For example, you might randomly receive a useless buff that deals Shadow, Fire, Frost, or other damage, or it might randomly receive a buff that drops more seasonal currency when you attack an enemy. The latter is the buff you want.

Maximizing buffs is crucial to building up seasonal reputation. Therefore, I recommend that whenever you gain a buff, you hover your mouse over the buff icon in your buff bar and check to see if it's useful to you.

If you successfully gain this useful buff, you should kill as many enemies as possible around you, as they'll drop more Infernal Warps, the seasonal currency.

If you use this buff correctly, you can earn up to approximately 25,000 Infernal Warps per buff. This is a significant number, considering a normal Chaos Rift only drops 1 to 200 Warps.

Farming Tips

We've discussed the basics of this buff, so now let's discuss some tips.

Prioritize Killing Elite Demons

You might think you gain this buff by turning off Chaos Rift, but that's not true. You actually gain it by killing an elite demon. So, technically, even if you have Chaos Rift enabled, someone can steal your buff by killing the demon first.

Of course, I'm not suggesting you steal other people's buffs, but I'm suggesting you prioritize this Elite Demon, as it determines whether or not you'll receive this useful buff.

Open Helltide Chests As Much As Possible

As for another tip, I recommend opening as many Helltide Mystery Chests as possible, as they have a chance to contain Nightmare Sigils with Chaos Rift affix.

These Sigils are so important because you can simply use them to teleport into the dungeon, and then, without actually entering the dungeon, you can check the dungeon map to see if you have Legendary or Mythic rifts. If you do, you can complete the dungeon and receive Mythic Unique and Chaos Armor.

How To Use Reputation?

Finally, I want to talk about how to actually use your hard-earned reputation points.

There are two main ways to use Seasonal Reputation, each with different rewards. Therefore, it's crucial to understand the benefits of each method.

Unlocking Caches

The first method is slightly simpler and involves your character acquiring a repeatable cache on Reputation board. You can earn these caches for 110,000 Reputation points, and you can repeat this process an unlimited number of times. Each cache contains at least one piece of Chaos Armor, sometimes two, and an Infernal Hordes Compass.

Unlocking A New Character's Reputation Board

The other method is slightly more complex. In this case, you'll need to obtain scrolls from the seasonal vendor next to Reputation board and then transfer them to a brand new character. This will eventually unlock the full Reputation board for this new character. You can then claim everything on this new Reputation board.

Summary

So, which way to spend Reputation is better?

With the first, simpler method, you'll receive at least one piece of Chaos Armor and one Infernal Hordes Compass, all for just 4,750 points.

With the other, more complex method, you'll receive a Resplendent Spark, for a total of four pieces of Chaos Armor, but you won't receive any actual Compass. All of this requires a total of 22,250 Infernal Warps.

So there's no single best way; it's more about what you need and which method works best for you!

Regardless, the most effective way to gain reputation in Season 10 is still farming Chaos Rifts in Helltide. But if you want to have smooth sailing in your farming process, it is crucial to buy safe and cheap Diablo 4 gold at IGGM.com to fully optimize your character equipment! Good luck!

In Diablo 4 Season 10, the developers overhauled Infernal Hordes mechanics, adding not only the new Bartuc boss, but also improved Aether rewards and a brand new battle type - Chaos Waves!

In Chaos Waves, waves of Chaos monsters swarm, and players can gain Shrine-like buffs by killing these enemies. These Chaos Waves offer a variety of unique combinations to explore and master.

So, here, we'll show you how to farm all types of Chaos Waves in Diablo 4 Infernal Hordes. This new mechanic, introduced in Season 10, is not only crucial to your Season Journey, but is also currently the best way to maximize Aether farming in Infernal Hordes.

About Chaos Waves

Everything begins once you reach Chapter 5 and Bloody Warlord objective, which requires you to complete a series of missions in Infernal Hordes at Torment 2 difficulty or higher. Most missions aren't difficult, but Chaos Waves are different, so it's good to understand what to expect when they occur, especially since they're randomized.

The first thing you need to know is that entering a Chaos Wave is risky. If you die, you lose the round and don't receive any Aether.

Another important point is that Chaos Offerings that trigger a Chaos Wave are randomized, meaning they're not tied to how much Aether you've collected or which wave you're in.

However, when it comes to Aether, the more waves you encounter, the more Aether you'll collect. This is simple: as you progress, you'll activate several modifiers that grant more Aether based on the options you choose, though these modifiers also affect the difficulty of Chaos Waves.

Chaos Wave Types

Okay, now that we understand how Chaos Waves work, let's take a look at all the different types of Chaos Waves that can appear in Infernal Hordes.

1. Spawning Chaos Rifts & Aether Fiends

The first type of Chaos Wave, and the most common, spawns Chaos Rifts, Aether Fiends, and regular adds. Your goal is to eliminate Aether Fiends, as they are the only ones that provide Aether bonus.

Here, you can use the power or buffs stolen from Chaos Bringers to make this Chaos Wave easier. Additionally, Aether Fiends are highlighted on the mini-map, so of all the available Chaos Waves, I consider this one the easiest.

2. Spawning Chaos Rifts, Chaos Bringers And Hellwyrms

The second type of Chaos Wave spawns Chaos Rifts, which contain not only Chaos Bringers but also Hellwyrms. Hellwyrms are worms with giant mouths found in Helltide, where demons spawn.

However, in Season 10, demons will not spawn, only worms. They appear for short periods of time, so your goal is to find and kill them as quickly as possible. Rest assured, Diablo 4 gold rewards these monsters drop will make it all worthwhile.

There are two types of Hellwyrms. Large ones appear first, one after another. But after you kill a few of them, a group of three smaller Hellwyrms will appear simultaneously in the center of the arena. More large monsters will then spawn around them. Be aware that these changes happen quickly, so you must act quickly.

3. Spawning Aether Lords And Chaos Rifts

The third type of Chaos Wave spawns Aether Lords and Chaos Rifts. An Aether Lord spawns every few seconds. You need to kill them quickly, as fighting multiple Aether Lords simultaneously increases the difficulty exponentially.

Here, Chaos Rifts don't spawn Chaos Bringers, but instead empower Aether Lords, so you need to destroy them immediately upon sight.

4. Spawning Aether Mass

The fourth type of Chaos Wave generates a massive Aether Mass, which you need to protect from monsters spawned from Chaos Rifts. The higher the health of Aether Mass, the more Aether you gain.

It's worth noting that while you'll initially face just one Chaos Rift and a few minions, after about 30 seconds, things get frantic, and the best you can do is try to destroy Chaos Rift to prevent more enemies from spawning.

5. Spawning Spirits

The fifth type of Chaos Wave, and what I find the most challenging, requires you to capture Spirits. These are white spheres that you need to trap.

The difficulty lies in their small size and lack of visual indication on the mini-map, meaning you'll have to search every corner of the map to find them, which is incredibly time-consuming. Furthermore, these Spirits move very quickly, so you'll need a high movement speed.

To make matters worse, Chaos Rifts will randomly appear, creating a massive portal in the center of the arena from which Echo of Bartuc will emerge. Once Echo appears, he'll unleash waves of fire that travel across the arena in different directions, dealing significant poison damage, so be careful. If that's not enough, Burning Butcher will also join the fray, adding to the chaos.

These are all Chaos Wave types you'll encounter in Diablo 4 Season 10. Each wave brings different enemies, but the main quest is to acquire more Aether and loot. Master these techniques, and you'll easily be able to handle all the monsters and survive to the end.

Of course, if you want to improve your survivability in Chaos Wave to get rid of the frustration of unexpected death and losing all your Aether, then you can buy cheap IGGM Diablo 4 gold to equip uniques with higher resistances and armor. The lightning-fast gold delivery will allow you to seamlessly connect and start a new wave of fighting with a brand new look!

Diablo 4 Season 10 brought unprecedented joy to players, but this joy was short-lived. Active players reached the endgame content within 2-3 days and began farming for unique items and Chaos Armor to complete their builds.

In addition to Infernal Hordes and Chaos Rifts, Lair Bosses are also a main target for players every season. Due to changes to boss mechanics, the optimal strategy for farming bosses in Season 10 will also change.

Lair Boss Mechanics Changes

Since the unique equipment pool from Infernal Hordes has been removed and integrated into the universal drop pool for all Lair bosses, each boss now has its own unique equipment drop list. Furthermore, the new unique equipment added in Season 10 requires farming specific bosses.

One of the most significant changes in Season 10 is that when a boss attempts to activate its shield and enter an invincible phase at a certain health point, the invincibility phase can be prevented if the player can destroy the shield within 5 seconds. This significantly improves the efficiency of farming Diablo 4 items from Lair Bosses.

Lair Boss System

Lair Boss challenge mechanics remain unchanged; you can challenge them directly at the boss location for free. However, the chests that appear after defeating the boss require the corresponding summoning materials to open.

It is highly recommended to partner with your friends. Even though each team member must bring their own materials to open their own chests, a full group will increase the unique item amount .

Also, the chances of obtaining Mythic Unique items increase when challenging higher-level bosses and at higher-level Torment difficulties.

A special red skull-shaped door icon marks the boss location on the map. Hovering over it reveals details and allows for direct teleportation.

The materials required for each Boss are as follows:

• Varshan: 12x Malignant Hearts
• Grigoire: 12x Living Steel
• Lord Zir: 12x Exquisite Blood
• Beast in the Ice: 12x Distilled Fear
• Urvaar: 12x Judicator Masks
• Duriel: 3x Shard of Agonies
• Andariel: 3x Pincushion Dolls
• Harbinger of Hatred: 3x Abhorrent Hearts
• Belial, Lord of Lies: 2x Betrayer Husks
• Bartuc (Infernal Hordes Boss): 666x Burning Aether Torment difficulty)
• Astaroth (Nightmare Dungeon Boss): No materials required

How To Get Lair Boss Keys?

Malignant Heart: Whispers or Open World drops in Helltides

• Living Steel: Helltides Chests
• Distilled Fear: Nightmare Dungeons
• Exquisite Blood: Elites in Legion Events, Helltides, and World Bosses
• Judicator's Mask: Helltides, Whispers, and World Bosses
• Shard of Agony: Varshan or Grigoire
• Pincushioned Doll: Lord Zir or Beast in the Ice
• Abhorrent Heart: Urivar
• Betrayer's Husk: Belial's Ambush

In addition to farming boss materials, you'll also receive Stygian Stones after defeating bosses. These can be converted at The Alchemist into materials for any Great Boss: Shard of Agony, Pincushion Dolls, and Abhorrent Hearts. Note that they cannot be converted into Betrayer's Husk in Diablo IV.

These boss materials are also tradable. If you have enough Diablo IV gold, you can always obtain boss materials from other players.

Season 10 unique items drop from the following bosses:

• Sabre of Tsasgal (Barbarian): Varshan
• Kilt of Blackwing (Druid): The Beast in Ice
• Gospel of the Devotee (Necromancer): Varshan and Urivar
• Orphan Maker (Rogue): Lord Zir
• Galvanic Azurite (Sorcerer): Andariel and Harbinger of Hatred
• Hesha e Kesungi (Spiritborn): Grigoire and Urivar

In addition to their unique drops, each boss also has a new universal pool of unique gear. Each unique item in this pool has a chance of appearing in any boss's loot.

However, Belial is a bit different. After defeating Belial, players can freely choose from any other boss's pool as a reward. Belial also has the highest drop rate for Mythic unique items in the game. Therefore, consistently farming Belial and then selecting Duriel's drop pool to farm Duriel-exclusive gear, especially Mythic unique items, is the most efficient method.

Season 10 Farming Strategy

Since the invincibility phase can be skipped, the strategy for farming Mythic unique items has changed:

• Tier S: Belial has the highest drop rate, but Diablo 4 Betrayer's Husk is very difficult to obtain.
• Tier A: Duriel, Andariel, and Harbinger of Hatred. Mythic unique items have a good drop rate, but require high damage, so it's best to farm them in a group.
• Tier B: Varshan, Grigoire, Lord Zir, Beast in the Ice, and Urvaar. These are relatively easy to farm solo.

The above is the gear and content that can be farmed for Lair Bosses in Season 10. Lair Bosses have always been a staple of farming, but the materials can be a challenge. We recommend farming boss materials in other activities first. Once you've accumulated enough Boss keys, team up with friends to farm for the highest efficiency.

Farming lair bosses is the primary way players obtain Mythic items, but Boss Materials are the biggest obstacle. Visit IGGM.com and Here will provide you with the fastest and best service, whether you want to buy Diablo 4 gold, boss keys, or Mythic unique items.

Diablo 4 Season 10 has been a pleasant surprise for many players, arguably the most exciting season yet. The first unexpected aspect for most players has likely been Chaos Rift, not because of its rewards, but because of its difficulty.

Most of the content in Diablo 4 Season 10 is fairly easy, and most players can complete the campaign without dying in one go. However, Chaos Rift has shown a different quality on PTR, with monsters having high health. Now that it's officially live, many players' first death is in Chaos Rift. However, by around level 30-40, you're fully capable of handling Chaos Rift on your own, and players clearly enjoy this little challenge early on.

Beyond its difficulty, Chaos Rift, as seasonal content, is also quite rewarding to farm. It's divided into different tiers, and if you encounter a Mythic Chaos Rift, congratulations! You'll receive a mythic item. So what other rewards does Chaos Rift offer? How can you find more Chaos Rifts? Let's take a look.

Chaos Rift Rewards

Chaos Rifts appear almost immediately at the start of the game, but are divided into three rarities:

• Magic Chaos Rifts: The most common, marked with blue text.
• Rare Chaos Rifts: More difficult, but also offers better rewards, marked with yellow text.
• Mythic Chaos Rifts: The rarest, only available on Torment difficulty, and boasts the greatest loot potential.

Chaos Rifts offer a wealth of rewards. In addition to the standard Diablo 4 Gold, materials, and XP, they are also the primary way to earn Chaos Perks and Season 10 reputation, so you can't miss them if you encounter one.

As the difficulty and rarity of a Chaos Rift increase, the items it drops increase. Possible rewards include:

• Experience, Bonus XP buffs
• Seasonal Reputation (Viz Jaq'taar Veneration)
• Gem Fragments
• Nightmare Sigils
• Aberrant Cinders in Helltides
• Infernal Warp (Infernal Hordes content)
• Murmuring Obols (Torment only)
• Obducite (Torment only)
• Chaos Armor (Torment only)

Mythic Chaos Rift is the best, but also the rarest. Its chance of appearing is roughly the same as that of Fancy Old Fedric (a goblin that drops a Mythic Unique and a Resplendent Spark) in Goblin March. However, Mythic Chaos Rift won't disappear easily, and you have an entire season to hunt for this incredibly rare Chaos Rift.

If you're lucky enough to come across one, quickly invite your friends or sell the access (you could earn tens of millions of Diablo 4 gold). No player would turn down a Mythic Unique item.

How To Find Chaos Rifts?

Step 1: Using Season 10 Character

First, you need to make sure you're playing a Season 10 character, not an Eternal character. Some players using Eternal characters have also seen whispers for Chaos Rifts in Helltides. This is clearly a visual glitch. Characters in Eternal Realm cannot access seasonal content like Chaos Perks, Chaos Armor, and Chaos Rift, at least not until the end of the season.

Some players report having Season 10 characters but still not finding Chaos Rifts. There are two possible reasons for this. The first is that Chaos Rifts don't appear very often before Torment 1 difficulty, and your luck is simply poor. Another reason might be that you were too impatient and didn't complete Season 10's first questline, Sands of Chaos. (This quest has a bug currently, which is that there is no Chaos Rift appearing. You can try exiting and re-entering the game or teleporting back to town and then returning to the quest location.)

To avoid missing any Chaos Rifts, it's best to monitor the map while you are riding, as they can sometimes appear quite far away.

Step 2: Location

After confirming you're playing as a Seasonal character, you need to head to the locations where Chaos Rifts are likely to appear. They are typically found in the following locations:

• Helltide: These are located throughout Helltides zone and can be seen directly on the map.
• Nightmare Dungeons: Nightmare Dungeons with Chaos rift affix are the most concentrated sources of rifts. These dungeons contain numerous rift portals and are prime locations for gaining reputation and resources. Larger dungeons may generate even more rifts.

Chaos Rifts are relatively rare in Campaign phase, and their rewards are modest. It's recommended that you begin focusing on Chaos Rift farming after reaching Torment 1 difficulty. Farming Chaos Rift-tagged nightmare dungeons is the most efficient way to earn Season 10 reputation and Infernal Warp.

Step 3: Combat

Chaos Rift appears as a hand-like icon on the map. Players must approach and click to activate it.

Once activated, the rift erupts with numerous enemies, which are quite difficult to combat. Players must fight through several waves before ultimately defeating a powerful boss whose difficulty is determined by the rift's level and difficulty.

If you're not at a high level, it's important to note that rifts are far more difficult than the normal content in their surroundings. Hardcore players should avoid soloing Chaos Rift before level 40. It's best to wait until you've the good enough Diablo 4 items, as this can lead to your own demise.

Chaos Rift offers a wealth of valuable content, and since it can be shared, it has the potential to foster new forms of social interaction and trading, becoming a focal point of the new seasonal economy and a core component of player farming.

Diablo 4 Season 10 has just begun. If you're having trouble getting the materials and gear you need in Chaos Rift, you can save valuable time by visiting IGGM.com and buy Diablo 4 gold and materials. Have fun playing Season 10!

Diablo 4 Season 10 is a very interesting season, with several powerful builds for almost every class. So, how can you reach the endgame as quickly as possible?

If you're a beginner, completing the campaign on Normal difficulty will take about 25 hours, putting you at around level 50-60. By the time you reach level 100, you'll have taken about 60 hours playing. An experienced player can cut this time down to under 20 hours.

Difficulty Selection

The first step in the game is naturally to create a character, skip the story, equip a pet, and let it automatically pick up Diablo 4 gold and materials. Then, select the difficulty. The game's difficulty can be adjusted freely. The first four difficulties are unlocked after completing the prologue:

• Normal
• Hard (75% more Experience and Gold)
• Expert (125% more Experience and Gold)
• Penitent (175% more Experience and Gold)

For other seasons, it's generally recommended to start on Normal difficulty and then level up, starting at around level 15 before moving up to Hard. However, due to the comprehensive character enhancements in season 10, you can try starting directly on Hard difficulty and experimenting with Expert difficulty as early as possible.

The key to determining whether the current difficulty is right for you is whether you can instantly kill monsters. If not, switch to a lower difficulty for efficiency.

Leveling 1-15

You first need to complete Raising Spirits side quest in Kyovashad and obtain a Herb Cache. This allows you to craft either Elixir of Advantage or Elixir of Precision immediately after level 10, increasing your XP gain by 5%.

Elixirs and incense in the game both increase XP gain. If you have enough materials, it's best to use these consumables continuously while leveling up:

Stat-boosting Incenses:

• Ancient Times
• Blessed Guide
• Sage's Whisper
• Spiral Morning
• Queen's Supreme

Defense-boosting Incenses:

• Reddamine Buzz
• Song of the Mountain
• Desert Escape
• Storm of the Wilds
• Soothing Spices

Then you'll need to begin the seasonal story questline, which unlocks Season 10's Chaos Perks and is the most important way to unlock season 10 mechanics and powers.

Season 10 quest will lead you to your first Helltide. In Helltide, prioritize completing Tree of Whisper quest over focusing on collecting Aberrant Cinders.

Also, keep an eye out for Fleeting Hordes Compass (available only in Penitent Difficulty and below), which unlocks a small Infernal Hordes with only four waves of enemies and provides a significant amount of XP.

Prioritize completing this when you encounter Chaos Rift. Although the higher HP of monsters in this season's event makes farming less efficient, it provides important seasonal materials and reputation.

Leveling 15-60 (Complete Campaign)

During this stage, you'll need to utilize Helltide (55 minutes) to level. You'll also need to accumulate Aberrant Cinders to open chests for significant XP.

During the intermittent rest periods (five minutes), you'll need to check your inventory for better equipment, swap them out, and salvage any unused gear for materials.

Level 30: Dungeons

Around level 30, you can farm Normal difficulty dungeons to obtain Codex of Power and Aspects. Then, visit The Occultist and use some materials and Diablo 4 gold to have him imprint Legendary Aspects you need onto necklaces, rings, gloves, and defensive gear. Note that only weapons, due to their frequent changes, are not suitable for imprinting.

You should adjust the difficulty based on your monster farming efficiency to maintain a high level of instant kills for maximum experience efficiency. Don't forget to progress through the seasonal questline to earn more powerful Chaos Powers.

Level 45: Strongholds

Around level 45, you can clear Strongholds. It's recommended to clear all Strongholds on Normal difficulty, as they clear much faster on lower difficulties, while still earning the same experience as higher difficulties. Clearing all Strongholds will bring you to level 60.

Leveling 60 And the Endgame Transition

After reaching level 60, the game enters the endgame preparation phase. Your goal during this phase is to complete level 10 of The Pit to unlock Torment I difficulty and gradually transition from a leveling build to an endgame build. To accomplish this, you need to upgrade your gear.

You'll need Legendary Aspects, materials, Diablo 4 gold, and runes. You can obtain these resources by running through Nightmare dungeons several times, which will also begin to drop and upgrade glyphs.

• Tempering: Prioritize fixed defense and damage attributes.
• Imprinting: Add core power to key gear.
• Runes: Socket runes on two-socket gear (more important than gems).
• Enchantment: Adjust the attributes of key gear.

Endgame

After unlocking Torment, your main focus shifts from leveling to upgrading gear. The following are your primary ways of getting gear:

• Lair Bosses: It is free to challenge them, but the reward chests require the corresponding materials, and you can choose to challenge it in a group for increased efficiency.
• New boss Bartuc: Summoned in Infernal Hordes (requires 666 Burning Aether). Killing Bartuc for the first time on Torment I or higher unlocks Chaos Armor. He's the primary source of Chaos Armor, making him your priority.

You can obtain your first set of unique Ancestral Unique weapons from Gamblers and Lair bosses, then gradually build up to a full set of Ancestral gear and the required unique gear.

After that, you'll need to cycle through Nightmare Dungeons (for glyphs), The Pit (for glyph upgrades), Helltide (for gear and Chaos Rifts), and Infernal Hordes (for Bartuc). You'll then unlock higher difficulties.

This is a rough guide to leveling. If you're familiar with this process, reaching level 60 will take about four hours, while new players can expect it in less than 10 hours.
