Diablo 4 Season 4: How To Find And Work Helltide Events?

Diablo 4 Season 8 was released on April 29, 2025 and is expected to end in July. It will last for two or three months. In addition to updating a series of seasonal activities and boss skills, this new season also rebalances the game’s high difficulty, especially in endgame bosses. New seasonal activities mean that players have new ways to gain experience and equipment, and new boss skills mean that players can try new ways to customize equipment. Adjusting the difficulty of the game and rebalancing the difficulty of Lair Bosses means that the late-stage farming boss and the most effective way to farm the boss may change. In addition, the player’s 0-60 level upgrade curve may not change much, but the time required from Torment 1 to Torment 4 may become longer. Players need more time to farm bosses repeatedly to get full unique and ancestral equipment loadouts. Since D4 S8 has many changes and new activities compared to the previous ones, the following will introduce some tips to make player leveling and farming more convenient. 1. Get Mythic Uniques For players who want to get Mythic Uniques in Diablo4 Season8, defeating higher-tier Lair Bosses in Torment 4 as much as possible is the best way to get a chance to open Hoards. There are some Unique Tributes that can be dropped after defeating the world boss, which gives players a chance to get Mythic Uniques after challenging Undercity. If players do not want to increase Torment difficulty to level 1 or above, they can also get Mythic Uniques through crafting, which requires Resplendent Spark. The following will introduce two ways to get Resplendent Spark. The first method is to defeat the boss of Torment 1 or higher: Lilith, she has a separate boss skill to unlock, and she does not need to be included in the key rotation. Defeating Lilith can be rewarded with Resplendent Spark, but now it will be more difficult to defeat her after the redesign. Another method is that players can obtain Resplendent Spark by unlocking the season reputation level, and can farm enough Lair Boss to obtain Spectral Ash to upgrade the reputation of the season. 2. Obtain Boss Keys The major changes in S8 include: remaking Torment difficult tiers, challenging Lair Boss battles, and changing the way players farm bosses. Unlike before, if players want to fight a boss, they can summon the boss directly without consuming other things. In Torment difficulty, defeat the boss and unlock the related boss power. If you want Lair Boss Hoard, you must have a special key to get the related special items and rewards. If the player fights low-level bosses such as Beast in the Ice, Varshan, Grigoire, or Urivar (Vessel of Hatred only), Hoards will still drop keys that can open the treasures of higher-level bosses such as Andariel, Duriel, and Harbinger of Hatred (Vessel of Hatred only). Belial is the highest-level boss, but if you want his hoard keys, you must defeat another Lair Boss and then randomly encounter Belial in order to drop them. In addition to farming Lair Bosses to obtain uniques and boss keys, you can also get more boss keys through Tribute of Titans in Kurast Undercity. 3. Accumulate Experience And Level Up The key to upgrading the difficulty of Torment in Diablo 4 S8 is still Pit of Artificer in Cerrigar. Players must successfully pass Pit level 10 to open Torment 1, and then farm endgame activities and items. However, Pit is not just a farming map for increasing difficulty. Players need to farm maps and kill enemies quickly to gain experience and advance, so they can choose to accumulate experience by challenging higher-level Pit. Players need to complete Pit challenges within a specified time in order to upgrade Glyphs and embed them in Paragon Boards. 4. Use Tribute To Farm Monsters There is a limited-time trial in Kurast: Kurast Undercity. Players can burn Tribute to ensure that they can get specific rewards after completing the trial. However, these copies can only be challenged by players who own the Vessel of Hatred DLC. This is one of the best ways to farm Lair Boss Keys this season. What rewards players receive depends on which Tribute is burned. For example, burning Tribute of Titans will drop Lair Boss Keys after the dungeon. Some Tributes guarantee Rune drops, some guarantee Obducite in masterworking, and some unique Tributes give players a chance to get mythic unique items and Diablo 4 Gold. 5. Get Gear And Materials With Helltides For players, Helltides have always been a quick way to level up and get gear. Once players open Torment 1, they can use Infernal Horde Compasses. If you don’t have Infernal Horde Compasses, you can challenge Helltides and Blood Maiden to drop them. Using these Compasses can get rich rewards, and it is also one of the best ways to get Obducite for masterworking gear. Successfully defeating enemies and completing Helltides can also earn a lot of Paragon experience. Once players have mastered some boss skills and reached the early levels, they can quickly level up by completing Helltide activities that refresh regularly on the map and unlocking Kurast Undercity as soon as possible. Players who own Vessel of Hatred expansion can challenge Strongholds in Nahantu after reaching level 50, so that they can reach level 60 faster. This allows players to level up quickly to the maximum level in a few hours. 6. Seasonal Activities Season 8’s seasonal event Apparition Incursions are not very difficult. Players defeat bosses in designated areas until a spectral version of Belial appears. Players can use these activities as a way to increase their level and gain some boss skills. The right combination of these skills may greatly improve the player’s strength. Since Diablo 4 Season update, there have been a series of updates, which may require players to adapt. This process may be very painful, but no matter how D4 is willing to make changes, everything seems to be moving in a good direction.

The arrival of Diablo 4 Season 7 introduces a brand new currency, Fugitive Heads. This is not only a necessary material for making Occult Gems, but can also be transformed into Restless Rot, which is an important resource for improving builds, so it is highly sought after by players in the new season. However, Fugitive Heads are very rare, and they are even rarer than Greater Affixes Legendary items under Torment difficulty. This is interesting for ordinary items, and it is entirely possible that players will not see a Head until they reach very high Paragon levels. Now let’s guide you step by step on how to get these Fugitive Heads. Using Draught Of Whispers First, if you have Draught of Whispers, use it first. This is a consumable elixir in Diablo 4 that increases your chance of encountering Fugitive Heads by 50%, and the effect lasts for one hour. Draught of Whispers can come from multiple sources, for example, they can come from Whisper Caches, or from Rootholds Dungeons, or from Headless Husks, all of which increase your chances of getting Fugitive Heads. Playing On The Highest Difficulty Next, you should play with the highest difficulty. You may have noticed that Fugitive Heads only drop at Torment difficulty. So if you play at any difficulty below Torment, you will hardly get any Fugitive Heads. And since the chance of getting Fugitive Heads increases with Torment Difficulty Tier. So ideally, if you want to maximize your farming efficiency, you should farm in Torment IV, if your character is capable of doing so. So, if you want to get more Heads in a short period of time, don’t be stingy about investing Diablo 4 Gold in your build to better optimize the build effect. Farming Headhunts By far, the best source of Fugitive Heads is Headhunts. These Headhunts are the new seasonal areas in Diablo 4, and all you have to do is go there and start doing Whispers, any Whisper objectives will do. This is because when you complete any Whisper objective in the new Headhunts area, Exposed Roots will spawn around. You should click on these Exposed Roots, and then a bunch of random things will happen. Of course, the most anticipated result is that after clicking on Exposed Roots, a boss will be summoned, so you have a better chance of getting a Fugitive Head drop. So you should run around in Headhunts and click on all Exposed Roots you find. If you are lucky, then clicking a few times will summon a boss. You know the boss has been summoned when you get a ping on your mini-map, but other people will get this prompt too. So if someone else clicks on Exposed Roots and then summons a boss, your map will also ping, and you should go there. So once your map pings, you know the boss will eventually spawn at this location. Now, this boss could be a Headless Husk. Unfortunately, you won’t drop a Fugitive Head when you kill it, but the boss itself has a random chance of spawning a Fugitive Head. The chance of a Fugitive Head spawning increases with each Difficulty Tier, and also with your Draught of Whispers applied. This is why you have to play on the highest difficulty, and ideally with Draught of Whispers buff. For example, if you play on the highest difficulty, Torment IV, and have Draught of Whispers buff applied, there is a 15% chance of a Fugitive Head spawning instead of a Headless Husk. The chance of this happening is less on lower difficulties, though, and this only applies to Torment Difficulty. Running Rootholds Dungeon Aside from that, Fugitive Heads can also be obtained from Rootholds Dungeon. Rootholds are mini-dungeons in Diablo 4 Season 7 that operate similarly to Nightmare Dungeons. To get into it, you need to prepare some Whispering Wood Sigils. These Sigils come from Whisper Caches, so when you farm Fugitive Heads in Headhunts, you can also get these Whispering Wood Sigils in your inventory by completing Whispers. When you enter Rootholds, you will go through a dungeon, and at the end of the dungeon you will meet a boss. This boss has a chance to be a Headless Husk and also has a chance to be a Fugitive Head. Unfortunately, the chance of them being Fugitive Heads is not very high. I think this way of collecting Fugitive Heads is not better than Headhunts. Because the chance of getting Fugitive Heads from Rootholds is very low, and it takes longer. Therefore, I only recommend going to Rootholds to get Fugitive Heads if you need items with Greater Affixes or if you have already completed all Headhunts and are waiting for the next Headhunt to appear. Summary Finally, let’s summarize it once more. We recommend that you prioritize collecting Fugitive Heads while running Headhunts, and don’t forget to run around completing Whisper objectives during this time, which will spawn Exposed Roots for you. You should click on all of these Exposed Roots and try to get the boss to spawn, and if any other player spawns a boss, you should also run to that place so that you have a chance to spawn and drop Fugitive Heads. If you have completed all Headhunts areas, then you can go into Rootholds Dungeon and try to get Fugitive Heads from there. Remember, for both Rootholds and Headhunts, you should use Draught of Whispers if you have them, as they increase your chances of getting Heads.

Maybe you will be the next lucky person!

In Diablo 4’s first expansion, Vessel Of Hatred, Upheaval has been properly adjusted to become one of the best core skills for Barbarian Class, making Upheaval Barbarian build the choice of many players who like powerful attacks, whether single-target or multi-target. In Upheaval Barbarian build, you can not only cleverly combine the two most important abilities in the build, giving it huge damage potential and excellent survivability, but also combine multiple skills such as Combat Bash and Furious Upheaval to give it a powerful ability to suppress enemies. It sounds attractive, doesn’t it? If you want to make the most of the best Upheaval Barbarian build in Diablo 4 DLC, you might as well read the following guide first, where you will pick out the skills and other gear that best suit your character. Skills At the level 60 cap and grinding renown added by Vessel Of Hatred DLC, you should have a total of 72 Skill Points to assign. Below are our recommendations for the best allocations, which you can change accordingly depending on your play style. Active Skills Bash: 1 Upheaval: 5 Rallying Cry: 1 Challenging Shout: 1 War Cry: 1 Call Of The Ancients: 5 Passive Skills Warpath: 3 Pressure Point: 1 Endless Fury: 2 Martial Vigour: 3 Imposing Presence: 3 Belligerence: 3 Raid Leader: 3 Booming Voice: 3 Guttural Voice: 1 Aggressive Resistance: 3 Prolific Fury: 1 Pit Fighter: 3 Slaying Strike: 3 Thick Skin: 1 Counteroffensive: 3 Heavy Handed: 3 Brute Force: 3 Wallop: 3 Key Passive: Unbridled Rage Skill Rotation Now that we know how all the skill points are allocated, let’s take a look at how you can use these active skills in real exploration. First, when you face a skirmish, you can cast three shout skills (Challenging Shout, Rallying Cry, and War Cry) to give yourself a series of offensive and defensive buffs. This is very easy to do if you have Diablo 4 Items such as Bold Chieftain’s Aspect and Rakanoth’s Wake in your build, as they can greatly reduce the cooldown of your skills. Then you can use Bash to generate fury, preferably ten times in a row, so that you will have a 120% damage increase, which will also give you an absolute suppression effect when casting the core skill, Upheaval. At this time, the key passive skill, Unbridled Rage will also start to work, consuming a lot of fury while causing more damage to the enemy. In some low- to mid-level encounters, the above skills are enough for you to clear most of the enemies you face, and you can easily pick up Diablo 4 Gold and loot they drop. But if you encounter a more difficult encounter, you can use Call of the Ancients. Although it does not cause very much damage to the enemy when it is cast, the passive buff it provides you when it is activated can make you have a very high clearing efficiency at some critical moments. Legendary Aspects Among most of the items in Upheaval Barbarian Build, the most important and useful ones are Legendary Aspects that can provide various benefits. The following are Legendary Aspects we recommend for you to use and their effects. You can also adjust them accordingly according to your game style. Edgemaster’s Aspect: The skill deals up to 5% - 25% increased damage based on available primary resources at the time of activation, with the greatest effect occurring when primary resources are full. Accelerating Aspect: Critical attacks from core skills increase your attack speed by 10%-30% for 5 seconds. Aspect of Anger Management: When your Fury exceeds 55–40 you will enter Berserk mode, but your Fury will decrease by 2 every second. Bold Chieftain’s Aspect: Whenever you cast a shout skill, for every enemy near you within 6 seconds, the cooldown of this skill will be reduced by 10%-30%. Aspect of Limitless Rage: For each Fury Point you generate while Fury is at max, the damage of the following core skills increases by 1-3%，increases up to 15 times. Mercenary A new Mercenary mechanic has been added to Diablo 4 DLC, where you can choose two of four different Mercenaries to combine to help you explore. For Upheaval Barbarian Build, you can choose Raheir and Varyana. This combination not only provides you with some extra defensive capabilities but also allows enemies to be easily attracted to them. Raheir’s skills such as Valiance and Bastion make it highly survivable and become your most solid protection. In addition, these skills can also provide you with Unstoppable in some emergency situations. But it is not just a tank attribute. Its Ground Slam skill can also provide you with some additional attack buffs to increase its practicality. For Varyana, if you combine your Bash skill with its Ancient Harpoons, it is a very good Reinforcement Mercenary. This skill will allow you to attract enemies before using the three Shout skills effectively, so that you have enough time to adjust your own state, such as using tonics to increase your health. Most importantly, Varyana can effectively shorten the cooldown of all your skills, allowing you to attack the enemy continuously. The above are some detailed information about skills, Legendary Aspects and Mercenary in the very popular Upheaval Barbarian Build in Diablo 4 Vessel Of Hatred DLC. I hope this guide can help you with your exploration. If you get stuck and need some Gold or Items during your exploration, you can participate in the regular lucky draws in iGMeet Discord, which may make your exploration easier. I wish you a happy game!

Diablo 4 Vessel of Hatred DLC introduces a ton of enemies to defeat and loot to collect, and the roster of all-new bosses can demonstrate this point. No matter what class you have chosen, be it the debut Spiritborn or one of five previous classes, these overwhelming bosses serve as the ultimate test for your builds as you pushing forward the brand new campaign in the region of Nahantu in Sanctuary. This guide details each boss that is exclusive to Diablo 4 Vessel of Hatred, along with the specific location that they nestle. Enkindled Judicator Enkindled Judicator serves as the first boss appearing in “Pursuit of Justice” main mission. It shows up in the burning ruins of Windswept Cabinas as bulking soldier. The primary weapon of this rookie boss is a big hammer. It’s slow to swing, but it hits hard. Also, watch out for its fire attack. Overall, it’s pretty easy to deal with. Abhorrent Manifestation Just like what its name has disclosed, this boss is designed as a terrifying horror. You will encounter it during “Enmity Rising” mission as you trespass Hollows part. Abhorrent Manifestation is primarily good at melee attacks. While it does less damage overall, it is noticeable that it is available to summon Minion Hollows for help. Nangari Deathworker You are gonna to meet Nangari Deathworker as you progress the quest of “Thrust into the Dark”. It features a giant Nangari, so it undoubtably excels in melee and AOE poison damage. If you want to win this fight easily, it is recommended to equip some necessary items that can offset this damage by spending some Diablo 4 Gold. Vesicator After slaying the first wave of Frothers, Vesicator will make an appearance in the form of a giant, hulking monstrosity of muscle and tentacles. You may encounter it on the radar of “The Heart of All Rot” quest. This monster is particularly excellent at attacking with its tentacled arms, which causes poison damage. In addition, it can also summon annoying Regurgitator minions to help him deal with some troubles. Awoken Dead On the way to complete “Fundament of Faith” mission, you can find this short and fat horror in Forgotten Chamber. In addition to some basic attack damage, Awoken Dead is also equipped with overwhelming lighting attacks to cast fatal damage. And Shambling Corpses will occasionally appear to help this boss. Ah Bulan, Mender Of Veils You may be surprised and astonished as you see this boss. Ah Bulan, Mender of Veils, is one of the most memorable bosses in Diablo 4 Vessel of Hatred DLC. You will meet this four-legged beast in Spirit Realm in the period of accomplishing “Across the Threshold” mission. Armed with a spear and shield, Ah Bulan is good at both offense and defense. He is available to cast stomping attacks and has two powerful clones accompanying him to provide assistance at any time. Eidolon Of Julian Eidolon of Julian is encountered in the quest of “Living Memory”. After searching Buried Chamber, you are required to fight with this towering red spirit. Eidolon of Julian can summon mini-tornadoes that are designed to significantly hinder player eyesight while caught inside. Urivar In the questline of “Burning Crusade”, players are going to descend into Knight’s Encampment dungeon where nestles Urivar. Urivar is an armor-clad boss who excels in melee attacks. He also has his army of knights to summon. Priestess Of Hatred Priestess of Hatred nestles in a befouled Clearing in Hierophant Pyre. You are needed to defeat her in “The Way Out Is Through” mission. She features A vicious, grotesque monster. Despite its size, it moves and attacks pretty quickly. Of particular note is blood magic, which features a powerful beam that shining the battlefield. Dread Captain Players will come to Seta O-Akha in the period of completing “In His Footsteps” mission. You will then engage in a fight with Dread Captain. With a massive pillar holding in his hand, Dread Captain primarily attacks with ice damage. In addition, there will be a Water Watcher that casts poison attacks from distance to support Dread Captain. Harbinger Of Hatred In the end, here comes the last boss in Vessel of Hatred DLC - Harbinger of Hatred. And you witness the strength of it during finishing “All Good Things” mission in Domain of Mephisto. Harbinger of Hatred features A malevolent dragon-like entity. During the fight, waves of enemies will appear in a small arena. This demon has 2 stages. It is recommended to use Akarat’s buffs to effectively resist. Harbinger of Hatred, as the ultimate boss, is inherently challenging. If you are absent of defensive skills or builds that can keep you alive or heal, then it is recommended to lower the difficulty to World Tier 1.
