Diablo 4 Season 5: How To Find And Defeat Our Old Friend Echo Of Varshan? - Boss Guide

We already know that the next expansion of Diablo 4 will be officially announced in 2026. I have to say that this news is quite disappointing. So how to keep players before the new DLC arrives is a challenge. Just recently, the production team of Diablo 4 announced their 2025 update roadmap, explaining their subsequent update plans. Fortunately, this roadmap is announced early enough. If they announce it after Season 8, 2025 would be almost halfway through. Let’s take a look at what this update roadmap contains. Season 7 Date: January - April Seasonal content Witchcraft powers Headhunts Activity Occult gems Earnable raven pet Permanent additions New Armory Whispers QoL update Although Witchcraft Powers in Season 7 are not very outstanding, this season is still an excellent season overall. Occult gems and Witchcraft Powers work well together. Classes are relatively balanced, and many builds are worth playing. In this season, players can level up faster than before. A skilled player can level up a character in about 7 to 9 hours. If you use a bug, it will only take an hour, and Diablo 4 Gold and equipment will overflow. Therefore, the development team decided to increase the difficulty next season. Season 8 Date: April - July Seasonal content Boss powers Apparition Incursion activity Earnable feline pet New IP collab 2-year anniversary Permanent additions New Lair bosses: Belial, Urivar, Harbinger Lair bosses QoL Reliquaries Season Journey update Season 8 will be officially launched after the update on April 29, when Witchcraft Powers and Occult gems will be removed and replaced by more powerful Boss powers. Although Diablo 4 is not a strictly live service game, the 2-year anniversary event will definitely bring players various XP gains and various treasure drops. The classic Treasure Goblin event is likely to return. In addition to providing gold, the new species of goblins can even drop legendary items. Another great change in Season 8 is that they have simplified the steps of challenging bosses. Players will no longer need to collect some messy items to unlock the qualifications to challenge the boss. When players defeat the boss, they will get a key to open the treasure chest. This is the result of feedback from the developer community. It really makes people feel a lot more relaxed without these complicated items in the backpack. Another interesting point is the new IP collaborate, which really makes people curious about what games can be combined with Diablo 4. Is Diablo 4 going to become another COD BO6? Don’t worry, the developers said that they carefully considered what IP to cooperate with, and they promised that this IP will still be dark fantasy style, and I don’t think it’s Path of Exile 2. Season 9 Date: July - September Seasonal content Horadric powers Dungeon escalation Earnable pet Permanent additions New Nightmare Dungeons activities Console keyboard and mouse support And more Season 9’s Season Power is Horadric powers. The word Horadric appears in Diablo 2, where players can use the magical power of Horadric Cube to transform items into new items. It’s still unclear how Horadric powers will work, but Horadric is related to Brotherhood of the Horadrim, so this organization is likely to return to the game in season 9, and even Deckard Cain and Tyrael will return. This means that the story of Diablo 4 will enter a more epic chapter. In addition, dungeons will be upgraded. If the theme of season 8 is to increase the difficulty of bosses in the endgame, then season 9 may be to increase the difficulty of dungeons. However, I hope to increase the drop rate of corresponding items, because after all, not all players are hardcore players. Most players are relatively casual players. If you don’t get any good legendary equipment after farming for several hours in the dungeon, you will not get positive feedback. Season 10 Date: September - December Seasonal content Chaos powers Infernal Hordes update Earnable pet New IP collab Permanent additions To be announced Season 10’s special power is Chaos powers, and Infernal Hordes will be also updated. So the theme conference of Season 10 is related to Hell. You must remember Chaos Sanctuary, which is closely related to the final boss Diablo. In Diablo 2, players can also get item level 85 items in this area, including gold and equipment. Will Diablo return in Season 10? This is so exciting.

We can’t guess the specific content, but we hope that the new DLC can have a new class that is interesting enough. The above is all about the update plan of Diablo 4 in 2025. It can be seen that the developers of Diablo 4 have a mature plan for the next content. They will bring other important content of Diablo series back to Diablo 4 step by step. There will be two more collaborations with other IPs this year, which is also very exciting. The new linkage will definitely bring a new look, and maybe there will be a new outlook for mounts, so let’s wait together.

Sepazontec Ancestral Unique Quarterstaff is a must-have weapon for Spiritborn in Diablo 4 Season 6 and will form the basis of many endgame builds. Angelbreath is an important item in the game, especially for upgrading Health Potions. Gathering enough Angelbreath is also one of the seasonal objectives in Season 6. Players will need to prepare some by level 30, and while it is not common, this guide will provide you with some methods to easily farm Angelbreath in the demon-infested Sanctuary. How To Get Sepazontec Ancestral Unique Quarterstaff? Sepazontec Ancestral Unique Quarterstaff is a rare weapon that can be obtained in a variety of ways, including defeating enemies, destroying pots, and opening chests, although the drop rate is very low. The chance of dropping this weapon increases in higher difficulty content, such as world bosses and nightmare dungeons. Certain bosses, such as Duriel, King of Maggots in Gaping Crevasse area, and Andariel in eastern Kehjistan, also have a chance to drop Sepazontec and some Diablo 4 Gold, but they only appear at Torment 1 or higher. For players who don’t want to fight bosses to obtain this weapon, using Murmuring Obols at Purveyor of Curiosities may be a simpler option. This provides a relatively easy way for new players to try to obtain this powerful equipment. Murmuring Obols You can obtain Murmuring Obols through a variety of ways, including participating in World Events, completing Cursed Object Events in Dungeons, collecting in Gathering Legions Zone Events, exploring Pit of Artificers, and obtaining Murmuring Caches through side quests. Note that you can only carry a maximum of 500 Murmuring Obols at a time, so make sure to use them before you reach this limit. In addition, you can also increase your carry limit by finding Altars of Lilith on the map. At Purveyor of Curiosities in any major settlement, you can spend 100 Murmuring Obols to get a random staff, which may include a Sepazontec Ancestral Unique Quarterstaff. How To Summon Duriel, King Of Maggots? You need to first defeat Varshan and Grigorie to obtain Mucus-Slick Egg and Shards of Agony required to summon Duriel, King of Maggots. Once you have two Mucus-Slick Eggs and two Shards of Agony, you can go to Gaping Crevasse to find a Pestilent Altar and sacrifice them to complete the summon. Mucus-Slick Eggs After reaching Torment 1, go to Malignant Burrow next to Tree of Whispers in Hawezar. There, you will find an altar that can be sacrificed for 4 Malignant Hearts to summon Varshan. These Malignant Hearts can be obtained from the treasure of Whispering Tree or from Grotesque Debtor enemy. After defeating Varshan, he will drop some Mucus-Slick Eggs. Shards Of Agony Grigorie spawns in Hall of the Penitent in Dry Steppes, which is located to the west of Onyx Watchtower. You need to go to the altar and sacrifice twelve Living Steel to summon him. These Living Steel can be obtained through Tortured Gifts opened during Helltides. After defeating Grigorie, he will drop an item called Shards of Agony. How To Summon Andariel? The summoning process for Andriel is similar to Duriel, King of Maggots, but the items required are different. You need two Pincushioned Dolls and two Sandscorched Shackles. These Sandscorched Shackles can be obtained by defeating Lord Zir, which is located in Darkened Way in Fractured Peaks, and twelve Exquisite Blood is required to summon Lord Zir. These Exquisite Blood can be obtained by defeating world bosses, participating in legion events, or from Helltide Blood Maidens. In addition, Beast in Ice is located in Glacial Fissure in Fractured Peaks, and you need to sacrifice twelve Distilled Fears to fight it. You will obtain Distilled Fears after completing Nightmare Dungeons. Once you have gathered all the necessities, you can go to Hanged Man’s Hall near Tarasark portal point for the next step. Also Read: Long-Term Diablo 4 Promotions & Giveaways - Real And Valid How To Get Angelbreath? The best way to obtain Angelbreath is to complete Nightmare Dungeons or participate in Helltide Events. If you choose to obtain Angelbreath by completing Nightmare Dungeons, it is recommended to explore dungeons with a lot of enemies, because this herb will drop from defeated enemies. The more enemies you defeat, the higher the chance of obtaining Angelbreath. However, it may be more efficient for players to collect Angelbreath through Helltide Events. Blood Maidens often drop this herb during this event. Additionally, growing Blood Maidens and collecting shards, followed by opening Helltide Tortured Gift chests, is an effective way to obtain Angelbreath. Blood Maidens during peak hours often attract numerous players, increasing the chances of obtaining Baneful Hearts, which can then be exchanged for rewards. Additionally, completing certain side quests is an easy way to obtain Angelbreath. However, there are more ways to obtain Angelbreath. The newly introduced Mercenaries, Subo, can point out the locations of Ore/Herb bundles. Since Angelbreath drops from Herb nodes, assigning him as the primary Mercenary will help you find these locations more easily during exploration. In Diablo 4 Season 6, obtaining Sepazontec Ancestral Unique Quarterstaff and Angelbreath are important steps to increase your character’s power. Besides the two items mentioned in this article, iGMeet discord has been doing a giveaway for Diablo 4 Season 6. Simply leave your favorite emoji to participate in the draw to get other powerful equipment. Whether it is challenging powerful enemies or completing complex tasks, players need to have sufficient strength and strategy. I hope this guide can help you easily obtain these important items.

Rogues lack natural defensive advantages, so they must rely on skills to provide the necessary protection. In Diablo 4 Season 5, Rogue's lack of defense can be made up by acquiring the Shroud of Kendras, a unique item that provides damage immunity and has an explosive effect that not only protects the player but also damages enemies. In addition, effective management of Primary Resources is also very important for Rogues. If it ends up with very high damage output, it is usually worth using skills or abilities that consume resources to achieve this goal. Beastfall Boots is such a unique item that can use your energy to transform Rogues’ skills into powerful attacks. In this guide, I will show you how to obtain and effectively use Shroud Of Khanduras and Beastfall Boots. How To Get Shroud Of Khanduras Unique? Shroud Of Khanduras is one of the 15 unique items introduced in Diablo 4 Season 5. Participating in Infernal Hordes wave-based activity has proven to be the best way to do this. To obtain Infernal Compass that opens the way into Infernal Hordes, players must first complete the seasonal quest chain called Eyes of the Enemy to obtain your first Infernal Compass. In each wave, killing a certain number of enemies will trigger Aetheric Events, which summon stronger enemies. After defeating these powerful enemies, you will obtain the necessary Burning Aether. Once you have enough Burning Aether, you can use 20 and 60 Burning Aether respectively in Spoils of Equipment or Spoils of Greater Equipment chests in Infernal Hordes. At the end of the event, after defeating Fell Council, players will use the accumulated Aether to open the treasure chest, increasing the chance of obtaining Shroud Of Khanduras. Upgrading your Infernal Compasses can increase Burning Aether income. Upgrading Infernal Compasses with Abyssal Scrolls will unlock stronger enemies and more waves of activities, thereby increasing the output of Aether. For players who want to challenge higher difficulties, it is recommended to equip enough items with Diablo 4 Gold first. Besides passing Infernal Hordes, you can also obtain this item by defeating enemies in World Tier 3 and World Tier 4. In addition, completing endgame activities such as defeating World Bosses, completing Gathering Legions, or challenging Nightmare Dungeons can also obtain this item. In particular, Grigoire, Galvanic Saint, has Shroud Of Khanduras in the loot pool, so challenging it will give you a higher chance of obtaining Shroud Of Khanduras. Using Stygian Stones to summon Tormented Grigoire will provide the best loot drop rate. How To Get Beastfall Boots Unique? There are also many ways to obtain Beastfall Boots. During Season 5, players can try to obtain this equipment by opening treasure chests or defeating random enemies in World Tier 3 and World Tier 4, but the chance of obtaining it this way is relatively low. To increase your chances, it is recommended to participate in endgame activities such as defeating World Bosses, completing Gathering Legions, or challenging Nightmare Dungeons. In order to complete these activities more easily, you can follow Giveaway channel in iGMeet discord, which will release product giveaway information from time to time. Remember to be active in the discord group. As part of Beast in the Ice loot pool, each defeat of this Ladder Boss significantly increases the chance of Beastfall Boots dropping, which is much higher than the random drop rate in Sanctuary. However, this challenge requires reaching World Tier 4 and obtaining specific summoning materials in advance. In addition, choosing to fight Tormented difficulty with Stygian Stones can increase the probability of obtaining specific unique items. Stygian Stones require players to complete Pit activities multiple times to collect. Shroud Of Khanduras Unique Effect & Affixes When Rogues equip Shroud Of Khanduras and use it, they will gain 2 seconds of damage immunity, but Evade cooldown will increase by 3 to 9 seconds accordingly. If you successfully Evade during Dark Shroud, you will leave an explosion at the location, dealing 450 to 1350 shadow damage and pulling enemies closer. In addition, this chest armor provides additional attribute bonuses based on its affixes: + [57.0-75.0]% Non-Physical Damage + [2-3] to Dark Shroud + [46.5-60.0]% Shadow Resistance Beastfall Boots Unique Effect & Affixes After each Ultimate skill used by Rogues equipped with Beastfall Boots, the next Core Skill will consume all Energy, and the damage will be increased by 0.25% to 0.75% for each Energy point consumed. In addition, after Cooldown ends, 25 Energy will be restored. This unique equipment also brings additional attribute bonuses: + [2 - 4] to Agile + [12 - 20] Maximum Resource [8.0 - 12.5]% Ultimate Cooldown Reduction + [10.5 - 17.5]% Movement Speed These strategies can help players obtain the unique items they need. Remember, upgrading your Infernal Compasses and using Stygian Stones to challenge more challenging enemies can significantly increase your chances of obtaining these unique items. As your equipment improves, don’t forget to enjoy the exciting battles and rich rewards during the game. I wish you good luck in the world of Diablo 4 and get the loot you desire!

The Way To Unlock Pet The easiest way to unlock a pet in the game is to head to the northern region of Kyovashad. Once there, you will receive a Priority Quest called Faithful Companion. This quest is initiated by Well Behaved Dog and is marked in white, so it should be easy to find. The quest is simple. You just need to talk to Well Behaved Dog near the blacksmith hut, touch it, and tell it he’s a good boy. The quest is completed and you will get your first pet, Well Behaved Dog, Asheara the Canine. Then go to Wardrobe in Kyovashad and click on Pets tab. You can equip Asheara and let it accompany you through the rest of the game. Besides Asheara, you can also equip three other pets, namely Alkor the Snow Leopard, Hratli the Canine, and Natalya the Tiger. This is another way to unlock pets, which may be a little more complicated. You need to pre-order Vessel of Hatred expansion to get it. Here are some specific details: Alkor the Snow Leopard: Reserve Standard, Deluxe, or Ultimate Edition or Vessel of Hatred. Hralti the Canine: Reserve Deluxe or Ultimate Edition or Vessel of Hatred Natalyta the Tiger: Reserve Ultimate Edition or Vessel of Hatred Obviously, if you pre-order Ultimate Edition, you will get all three pets. Although Vessel of Hatred expansion is still more than two months away, you may feel that you can’t wait. But surprisingly, the running of this expansion and obtaining pets are not mutually exclusive. As long as you preorder the expansion series now, you can unlock the above three pets. The Application Of Pet In Diablo 4 Season 5, pets have practical uses. Just like real-life pets, they will automatically follow you around and help you pick up some materials, such as Gold, Herbs, Ore, and Crafting Materials. Without a pet, you may need to click on these materials to place them in your configuration. This way, you can focus on picking up items and equipment in the game, and leave those materials that are easily overlooked to your pet assistant. Of course, pets also provide you with emotional value. You can name them and communicate with them. Therefore, in order to enhance the gaming experience, it is recommended that every player unlock at least the easiest to obtain Asheara the Canine pet. When exploring the demon-infested Sanctuary, let these furry little pets pick up materials for you and accompany you on this dangerous journey to win the game.
