Diablo 4 Season 6: How To Get This Rare Consumable? - Seething Opals Guide
A variety of new mechanics have been introduced in Diablo 4 Hatred Rising and Vessel of Hatred DLC. Zakarum Remnants faction serves as one of the primary mechanics, which you can earn Reputation by completing Seasonal objectives.
Besides new mechanics, a plethora of new items also show up in this new season. This article introduces a brand new item named Seething Opal.
This comparatively rare consumable is aimed at making the progress of farming less hellish. That means if you are interested in doing some hard farming in Season 6, then Seething Opal is essential.
Details Of Seething Opal
Seething Opals will enlarge the odds of finding specific items, be it Diablo 4 Gold, equipment, or resources, to perform targeted farming. It keeps a tight link to Seasonal progression.
Most importantly, it does not interrupt standard Elixirs, and instead, the merits of Seething Opals will stack on top of Elixir, increasing your farming efficiency.
The main task of Diablo 4 Season 6 and Vessel of Hatred expansion is to chase down wandering Realmwalkers. Once completing the task to defeat Realmwalkers, a portal to Seething Realm will be created.
During Hatred Rising events, monsters and bosses (including Realmwalker and Seething Realm boss) will offer Zakarum Reputation as a reward. But if you are equipped with this new Diablo 4 Seething Opals, you will get Zakarum Reputation whenever you kill enemies, regardless of whether you are in the event or not.
Versions Of Seething Opal
There are totally five versions of Seething Opal consumables, here lies the details of the bonus on offer:
Seething Opal Of Gold
- Enemies routinely drop additional Gold
- Kills grants Zakarum Remnants Reputation
- You have a 15% Experience Buff
Seething Opal Of Equipment
- Enemies routinely drop additional Equipment
- Kills grants Zakarum Remnants Reputation
- You have a 15% Experience Buff
Seething Opal Of Materials
- Enemies routinely drop additional Herbs and Crafting Materials
- Kills grants Zakarum Remnants Reputation
- You have a 15% Experience Buff
Seething Opal Of Torment

- You have a 15% Experience Buff
Seething Opal Of Socketables
- Enemies routinely drop additional Gem Fragments

Besides Seething Opal of Torment, the remaining of four Seething Opal promise you Zakarum Remnants as a drop. All five Seething Opals will last for 30 minutes and give a buff of 15% to experience after killing enemies, which makes it a core part to grind your Paragon levels.
Seething Opal of Torment is designed to provide you Artificier’s Stones as a drop, boss summoning materials, and even Infernal Compasses.
If you are desperate to farm Zakarum Repuation, which will grant you affluent rewards, or XP and materials in The Pit or Nightmare Dungeons, please make sure to activate Seething Opal.
Given the short duration of Seething Opal, players should make the most of the 30 minutes to kill as many monsters as possible to get more rewards.
How To Get Seething Opals?
There are three main options for getting more Seething Opal.
First of all, the best way to get Seething Opal is to take part in Hatred Rising event. For example, completing Seething Realm dungeon at the end of Realmwalker’s path will guarantee you some Seething Opal once you have successfully slain bosses.
And such events are frequently always going on. Because within a few minutes after the previous event ends, a new Realmwalker shows up somewhere in Sanctuary. This process repeats itself, which means you can get a lot of Seething Opal by participating in such events multiple times.
According to the game’s settings, players are required to kill Realmwalkers who you can find at the “two-horned portal” icons which spawn randomly. Then enter the portal that appears at the place they die and slay the ultimate boss to embrace Seething Opals that will drop as rewards.
The second reliable method is to progress Zakarum Remnants reputation, and earn Seething Opals from Caches. Every new rank you have reached will promise you a Cache which always has some Seething Opals on offer.
You can check the progress by communicating with Zakarum Remnants faction vendor just north of Waypoint in Zarbinzet.
The third method is to complete objectives in Season Journey, which provides you a plethora of Caches with materials, equipment, and other items being contained. You are required to finish all chapters to get them.
That’s all about the new Seething Opals item. For more live advice, enter iGMeet discord.

Diablo 4 Season 7: What Cha ...
According to the current news released by the developers, the seventh season of Diablo 4 will meet with players on January 21, 2025. Some time ago, the PTR for this new season officially ended, and many players were fortunate to participate in it and put forward their own feedback for the improvement of the game. Among the new game content in Season 7, the most worth introducing is that there may be a Class using Witchcraft Powers added to the game, which may bring more and better game experience and more build possibilities to players. In addition, the original Classes have also undergone some changes. Among them, the biggest change is Spiritborn, which was once a darling of Season 6, but it may be weakened in the new season. However, this guide is not mainly about it, but the controversial Sorcerer and Druid in the last season, both of which have received many disagreements because of their one-sided strength but the lack of the other. Next, let’s take a look at what changes these two Classes will have in the next season! Sorcerer Compared to the previous season, the spells cast by Sorcerer in Season 7 can become hotter or colder, and can make players more excited when manipulating it. First of all, in the new season, Sorcerer has two new Uniques - Strike of Stormhorn and Okun’s Catalyst. They bring you a new good friend called Super Ball Lightning, which can spin like a hula hoop full of lightning and cause irresistible lightning damage to the enemy, so that you can stride forward unhindered. In addition to the new skill Ball Lightning, there is also a new skill called Inferno, which can increase the vulnerability to enemies inside the group of enemies, and the fire skill of Sorcerer has also been greatly enhanced, which is what I just said that this Class has become hotter. For colder, it is because Deep Freeze skill has been changed, and its damage has become stronger and it can provide you with a barrier when you thaw. There are also a number of changes to Enchantments and Passives, making your builds in Season 7 healthier, faster to clear, and more flexible, making it much easier to get loot and Diablo 4 Gold with your Sorcerer next season, and speeding up your game progress. Legendary Aspects, which are very important to Sorcerer build, have also undergone some changes, such as Pyro, Frost, and Shock skills, which have multiple functions for generating barriers, helping you increase your movement speed and attack speed, and immobilization, which can give you a better advantage in the challenge of some bosses. Not only that, the Ball Lightning enhancement function just introduced can make you a static destruction field for enemies. Overall, the poor survivability that was criticized last season may be greatly improved next season. This will be very good news for some players who like to stand in the safe range and use spells to defeat enemies, so that they don’t have to spend a lot of effort on gear that improves defense in their Sorcerer builds and give up damage enhancements. Also Read: Does Diablo 4 Season 7 Indicate The Return Of Doctor Witch In The Next DLC? Druid Druid is getting some love from the developers in the next season, which is reflected in the addition of Uniques and some skill improvements. First, the most noteworthy Unique is Malefic Crescent Amulet, which can greatly increase the critical damage and movement speed of a Druid in werewolf form, and the level of Feral Aptitude has also been increased. On top of that, the damage of Lupine Ferocity on consecutive critical hits has also been increased by 100%-150% by this item. In addition, Mjölnic Ryng allows Druid to gain unlimited Spirit and 40%-100% increased damage while Cataclysm is active, which greatly improves the shortcomings of the Class’s poor damage ability. Not only that, Tempest Roar can also convert some of your Willpower damage into Willpower in combat, making you more tanky. Not only is the poor damage ability a disadvantage that players have been discussing, but the information that Druid lacks flexibility is also widely known. But fortunately, in Season 7, Druid’s proud Hurricane skill can be cast while moving, increasing its chances of winning in battles that require a certain degree of flexibility. As for other attack damage skills, they have all been improved to some extent, such as Raging Shred, which will increase your skill set by 30% poison damage and Grizzly Rage by 60%. The most exaggerated one can be said to be Lacerate, whose damage value has increased to 600% of the original! It can be predicted here that this skill will definitely become one of the most important skills in Druid’s build because it is too powerful. In previous seasons, Druid’s Passives can be said to be very difficult to choose, because only one of the strong survivability and damage ability can be retained. But in Diablo 4 Season 7, you may no longer be bothered by this problem, because several passive skills that deal damage have been buffed. For example, Lupine Ferocity will increase your critical hit damage by 75% for every three Werewolf casts that hit, Heightened Senses will increase your movement speed by 3% in werewolf form, and Charged Atmosphere will increase your build’s lightning damage by 10%. Since Druid is the only Class in the game with human and beast multi-forms, the choice of Spirit Boons is also very important for the build. In view of this, the developers have made certain enhancements to Deer and Wolf: the former can help you deal 5% extra damage with subsequent damage attacks when attacked, while the latter allows you to restore all your Spirit when you cast Lucky Hit. These are some changes you will see for the Sorcerer and Druid classes in Diablo 4 Season 7. Since the official version of the next season has not yet been announced, some of the key attributes and statistics in this guide are not accurate and are for reference only. You can also participate in some giveaways for D4 game products in iGMeet Discord in your free time, which may make your exploration of the next season easier.Dec-30-2024

Diablo 4 Season 5: How To M ...
If you like to take down enemies in Diablo 4 in a fast and fierce way, then you will definitely like Twisting Blades Rogue build. In addition, this build is also one of the fastest builds you can make in Season of the Infernal Hordes, so Twisting Blades Rogue build is well worth your consideration. This Twisting Blades Rogue build is focused on rushing straight into enemies on the battlefield and engaging in a very flashy fight with them, whether in leveling or endgame phase. If you choose the right items and skills for it according to the suggestions in this guide, you will definitely find the joy of fighting in this build! It is important to note that this guide only covers the endgame build. You will need to complete the Of Lambs and Wolves quest to convert your leveling build into a proper endgame build. There are a lot of significant changes between the two builds that will affect how you handle endgame activities. Active Skills First, we will keep Twisting Blades, Shadow Step, Dash, and Poison Imbuement from the leveling build. Secondly, we will add new skills: Blade Shift, Dark Shroud, and Death Trap. Let’s take a look at each one. Blade Shift is a replacement for Puncture, but it does not hinder your movement like Puncture does. Instead, it increases your movement speed. This will give you more flexibility and mobility in the endgame. Next, this Subterfuge Skill called Dark Shroud will also increase your movement speed and your Critical Strike Chance will also increase. Finally, Death Trap is an Ultimate Skill that allows enemies to enter your set traps and detonate them. The amount of damage is unpredictable, and most importantly, when this skill successfully kills an enemy, its cooldown will be reduced by 12 seconds, which is very helpful when you kill some groups of enemies. Passive Skills Compared to Twisting Blades Rogue leveling build, more Passive Skills need to be added in the endgame build. The first point is Siphoning Strikes skill, which can turn Critical Strikes damage of enemies very close to you into healing elixirs, which will greatly increase your character’s survivability in the endgame. There are also two skills, Deadly Venom and Alchemical Advantage, which can increase your Poison damage to the enemy and provide you with attack speed and Lucky Hit Chance enhancements. Best Specialization For the choice of Specialization, Twisting Blades Rogue endgame build still uses Combo Points Specialization from the leveling build. When you cast Blade Shift three times, you generate three combo points, which you can then unleash with Twisting Blades and deal amazing damage. There is currently no replacement for Combo Points Specialization, as this Specialization allows you to run Nightmare Dungeons and The Pit in the endgame phase more easily to get the final Diablo 4 Gold reward. Skill Rotation Suggestions In Twisting Blades Rogue endgame build, you can rotate in the order of Poison, Imbuement, Shadow Step, Blade Shift x3, Twisting Blades, Dash, and finally Death Trap. Now let’s take a look at the specific reasons and rotation process. First, Poison Imbuement will make your Shadow Step deal some extra damage, and then you can use 3 Blade Shifts to generate the combo points just mentioned. Then use Twisting Blades to release these combo points and perform a series of impaling blades on the enemy, which will also have Poison damage. Then you can rush the enemy to increase your Critical Strike Chance. Finally, use Death Trap to make the ultimate attack on the enemy. This series of operations will definitely reduce the enemy’s health a lot, and your health will not be consumed. Legendary Aspects While you already have some great Legendary Aspects in your leveling build, the other Legendary Aspects in Sanctuary will make your Twisting Blades Rogue endgame build even more powerful. Here are Legendary Aspects you can choose from and what they do. Aspect of Disobedience: Dealing any damage grants increased armor for a few seconds. This effect stacks. Rapid Aspect: Increases attack speed of basic skills. Aspect of Nebulous Brews: Healing potions give you increased movement speed for a few seconds, can be drunk when full, and produce a potion every 20 meters traveled. Aspect of Volatile Shadows: When Dark Shroud’s shadow disappears it creates an explosion, dealing Shadow Damage and applying Shadow Inflict to each enemy hit. Galvanized Slasher’s Aspect: When you damage an enemy with a Mobility Skill, maybe your Energy will be fully restored. Your maximum Energy is also increased. That’s all for tips on skills and aspects on how to make your Twisting Blades Rogue endgame build stronger in Diablo 4 Season 5. Hopefully, you can win more boss encounters in the current season with this powerful build. If you’re interested in Diablo 4’s subsequent DLC and season, you can join the discussion in iGMeet Discord. If you’re lucky enough, you may even win some Uber Boss summoning materials through a lucky draw. The winners will be announced on September 18, so good luck!Sep-12-2024

Diablo 4 1.1.2 Patch: Enhan ...
As the dark and foreboding realm of Diablo 4 continues to evolve, players are eager to embrace the upcoming patch 1.1.2, which promises to introduce improvements to farming efficiency and tackle several pesky bugs that have been plaguing the game. With Blizzard's commitment to sharing patch notes in advance, players can prepare themselves for the changes and enhancements that are set to transform the Diablo 4 experience. Scheduled for release on Tuesday, August 15, across all platforms, patch 1.1.2 is geared towards refining existing mechanics rather than introducing sweeping changes. Malignant Heart Farming Becomes Swifter One of the highlights of patch 1.1.2 is the enhanced Malignant Heart farming experience. Malignant Monsters in Diablo 4 drop Malignant Hearts upon defeat, which can be activated to summon a more challenging version of the same creature. In the past, the activation process consumed five seconds, adding a layer of delay to the gameplay. However, the forthcoming patch trims this activation time to a mere two seconds. This modification is set to expedite the grind for Malignant Hearts, streamlining the process and enhancing overall gameplay efficiency. Trade Channel Revival and Bug Fixes In response to player feedback and the yearning for more interactive experiences reminiscent of the trade chat, patch 1.1.2 introduces a significant change. Players will now start in the Trade channel by default. This alteration aims to infuse more dynamism and engagement within the Diablo 4 community. However, players who prefer a less cluttered interface can easily disable the Trade channel by adjusting the in-game settings, ensuring a customized gameplay experience. Addressing longstanding issues that have dampened the enjoyment of the Diablo 4 universe, patch 1.1.2 aims to rectify the "A Boon in the Tide" quest from the Seasonal Journey. This quest, situated in Chapter 5, presented players with a challenge involving opening a Tortured Gift chest at any Helltide event. Despite attempts, the quest failed to track progress for numerous players, leading to frustration. The upcoming patch seeks to eliminate this issue, enabling players to fully engage with the Seasonal Journey. Mount Skills Bug and Quality of Life Improvements Among the improvements that patch 1.1.2 ushers in is the resolution of a vexing bug that prevented the use of mount skills after leaving a city. This bug perplexed players as they found themselves unable to activate these skills, even though they were technically outside the city limits. The upcoming patch eliminates this inconvenience, ensuring a smoother transition between city life and the treacherous adventures beyond. Read on below for the patch notes: Gameplay updates The wait time for a Malignant Monster to spawn after activating a Malignant Heart in the world has been reduced from 5 to 2 seconds. Players are now in the Trade Channel by default. Navigate to the in-game settings to opt-out. Bug fixes Dungeons and events Fixed an issue where Nightmare Dungeons could be repeated by promoting other party members to leader. Fixed an issue where the Gathering Legions event could stop progressing even after defeating all nearby enemies. Druid Fixed an issue where Boulders cast with the Aspect of Metamorphic Stone equipped would not deal more than 100% damage. Fixed an issue where the Agitated Winds malignant power would trigger when breaking destructible objects. Fixed an issue where the Aspect of the Alpha Werewolf companions could float above the ground. Quests Fixed an issue where the Fury Against Fate quest couldn't be completed. Fixed an issue where Iron Skin Elixirs could be obtained indefinitely by repeatedly accepting and abandoning the Desperate Remedies quest. Fixed an issue where the Call of the Ancients quest would not progress if the party leader was dead when the boss was defeated. Fixed an issue where the Call of the Ancients quest would not progress if Gharl was killed before his dialogue was triggered. Fixed an issue where side quests for crafting items could direct the player to the wrong NPC. UI Fixed an issue where white lines were appearing on the World Map. Fixed an issue where the Season Journey menu could malfunction when finishing a chapter. Fixed an issue where the notification for the World Boss appearance would malfunction if the player hadn't unlocked Whispers of the Dead yet. Fixed an issue where linking an item in chat wouldn't display properly in the Battle.net app. Fixed an issue where the Holding Back the Flood quest marker would display on Dungeon exits but not on the world map. The tooltips for the Caged Heart of Tal'Rasha and Caged Heart of the Great Feast now correctly state that their bonuses are additive instead of multiplicative. The tooltip for the Caged Heart of Determination had its description updated to clarify that it specifically reduces resource draining effects from enemies. Miscellaneous Fixed an issue where the A Boon in the Tide Season Journey objective could not be completed as expected. Fixed an issue where teleporting to a Dungeon entrance could be done while using invincibility-granting skills (Ex: Blood Mist). Fixed an issue where some interactable objects—particularly corpses— could not be interacted with. Fixed an issue where mount skills were sometimes not available after leaving a city. Fixed an issue where the Calculated malignant power would consume the stun effect on non-damaging abilities. Fixed an issue where Druids, Necromancers, and Rogues could not gamble for Helms at the Unsavory Oddities vendor in Fields of Hatred towns. Fixed an issue where you could not replace an equipped Wrathful Heart with another Wrathful Heart. Fixed an issue where the frost effect of the Penitent Greaves didn't display properly in the final campaign boss arena. Fixed an issue where quest items could randomly appear in town. Various stability and performance improvements. Various other miscellaneous fixes to Shop Cosmetics.Aug-17-2023
