Diablo 4 Season 7: How To Welcome Next Season? - Witchcraft’s Addition And Quality Of Life Updates
On November 12, the developers of Diablo 4 series held a campfire chat, mainly communicating with players and announcing the content of the mid-term patch of Season 6. Although some information about Season 7 was revealed during the period, it was still very limited.
In the following week, Diablo 4 was in the middle of Season 6, and with the release of patch 2.0.5 and the holding of some festive in-game activities, including red-cloaked horror and welcome back gifts for Eternal players, this week was very lively.
However, since Season 7 is not far away, and in order to satisfy your curiosity, on November 21, the developers held another campfire chat, mainly announcing the main updates of Season 7 and patch 2.1 PTR.
Based on this, we will introduce you to the two main updates on patch 2.1 PTR.
1. Powers Of Witchcraft
Season 6 of Hatred Rising is still in progress and is expected to end in January and enter Season 7. But in order to present a better Season 7, the game developer will release patch 2.1 PTR on December 3 and last until December 10. In this PTR, you can not only test the new patch but also get to know the new Season 7 content for the first time.
Among all the new content, the introduction of powers of Witchcraft is the first. If you have experienced Diablo 4 Season 2, you will know that you can use Vampiric powers and the addition of powers of Witchcraft in Season 7 will make it a new “seasonal power” and a new helper for you to get a lot of Diablo 4 Gold.
How To Get Witchcraft?
To get Witchcraft first in Season 7, you first need to collect a new currency, Restless Rot, by defeating Headrotten. Then head to the altar and trade Restless Rot for Witchcraft.
As for how to equip Witchcraft, it’s actually similar to Sanguine Circle in Season 2. If you haven’t experienced Sanguine Circle, it doesn’t matter. You can just find an extra tab on the character menu to do it.
Build A Witchcraft Season Reputation Board
Once you have Witchcraft, you can continue to build a reputation board specifically for Witchcraft season, and Coven’s Favor will drop from Whispers. On top of that, you will earn Resplendent Sparks again by completing Witchcraft season reputation board, helping you craft Mythic Uniques.
In addition, Whispers will also become more intense as the tree hunts for Headrotten. Headhunts will spawn in a similar area takeover style to Helltides, and feature all new Whispers activities, as well as some other activities you are familiar with. Completing these Whispers activities will give you a chance to encounter a Headrotten boss. Sending the heads of the boss to Tree of Whispers will also earn your Occult gems.
What Are Occult Gems?
As an item in Season 7, Occult gems will have a unique effect on the game and can be used to embed in item slots, thus providing you with some combat benefits. It is also worth noting that exploring Forgotten Altars in various dungeons in Sanctuary can unlock new powers. In fact, more than 20 new powers will be added in Season 7.
2. Quality Of Life Updates
Before Diablo 4 2.1 version PTR, the game developer revealed not only Armory mechanism that makes it easier to save and exchange equipment, as well as a series of other changes in the campfire chat on November 21, but also many quality of life changes. The most important of these is the change of Paragon Board.
Paragon Board Season 7 Update
According to the latest news, Paragon Board in Season 7 will allow you to customize the build you need to use after reaching the game level cap. And starting from the next season, all Paragon experience you earn throughout the season will be added to your Eternal Realm progress.
According to the development team, this Paragon experience migration mechanism will give you the opportunity to obtain rewards in Eternal Realm without having to worry about seasonal grinding.
Changes To Ancestral Legendary Items
In the future, the drop rate of Ancestral Legendary items will also be greatly increased in all levels of Diablo 4’s new Torment difficulty system. Higher drop rates can not only improve the level of game activities but also will not affect the important position of Ancestral Legendary items in the game.
In addition, starting from Season 7, Ancestral Legendary items will definitely appear at the highest end of their Legendary Aspect level.
Other Changes And Updates
Other quality of life changes mainly include a redesigned system for unique power rolls, a gem fragment converter that can create Legendary items, and updates to class tasks.
Of course, the above content is only part of the content of Season 7 and the 2.1 version PTR update. I believe that with the launch of both in the future, you will experience a more exciting Season 7.
Related: Diablo 4 Promotions & Giveaways
In addition, enter iGMeet Discord now, you cannot communicate with other Diablo 4 players, but also participate in the eighth giveaway event for Diablo 4 Season 6.

Diablo 4 DLC: Will The Next ...
The introduction of the new Spiritborn class in Diablo 4 Vessel of Hatred is impressive, but it is just the starting point for a much larger action-RPG experience in the future. As Diablo 4 moves forward, we can expect more expansions and new playable classes that will not only provide healthy competition to the existing Spiritborn but also add more layers and depth to the game world. However, it’s not clear what exactly these upcoming new classes will be. Given the growing trend of more and more classes in RPGs, developers are working hard to explore new ways to expand and develop the traditional class framework, which makes Diablo 4 have great potential for development in terms of new playable characters. Especially for those players who seek to accumulate Diablo 4 Gold by mastering unique skills and strategies, new classes mean more challenges and opportunities. With the next DLC, there is a clear direction worth exploring - introducing classes that have long been desired by players but have not yet appeared in the game, and in this way further improving the background of Diablo 4’s story. Such a move not only satisfies the demand of hardcore fans for fresh content, but also attracts more new players to join this world full of challenges and adventures. Vessel Of Hatred’s Ending Symbolizes Downfall Of Light Although the story of Vessel of Hatred has caused a lot of controversy because of its open ending and incoherent plot development, it still points out a new direction for the storyline of the entire game. At the end of Vessel of Hatred, the mortal body of Akarat, Shepherd of Light was captured by Mephisto and eventually became the Lord of Hatred’s new vessel. This transformation not only marks a major setback for the forces of light but also indicates that the next Diablo 4 expansion may explore a darker and more desperate world setting. With Akarat, who was once regarded as an immortal being, falling into the hands of evil, the entire story seems to have come to a pessimistic end. But it is worth noting that there are hints in the game that Akarat has not completely disappeared, but continues to exist. This is reflected in his promise to Neyrelle, telling her that they will meet again. This arrangement not only leaves players with hope but also sets the stage for the return of characters in the future. This background setting is particularly important considering the possibility of Neyrelle’s debut as a new class. The Next New Class Should Preferably Be A Holy Knight Unlike previous versions of the game, the traditional “sword and board” class has not been included in the game since the release of Diablo 4. Although many players called on the development team to include this classic class, the development team seems to prefer to create a more complex new class rather than simply copying the existing template. However, this does not mean that a holy knight type of class will be absent from the series forever. Considering the overall story direction of Diablo 4 and the class settings that have appeared in previous works, it is still possible that a character with both offensive and defensive capabilities like a holy knight will appear in the future. In the history of the Diablo series, a holy knight type of class has been reflected. For example, Diablo 2 introduced a Paladin class, and Diablo 3 continued the tradition with a Crusader class. This shows that the development team has a continued interest in this type of character that combines defensive and offensive capabilities. Therefore, it can be speculated that Diablo 4 may reshape similar classes based on new design concepts. Considering that the story background of Vessel of Hatred hints at the return of Tyrael and the power needed to fight Mephisto, the next new class is likely to be a Paladin or Crusader-type class. However, this new class will not be a simple copy, but will incorporate more innovative elements, such as the unique functions and diversity of the Spiritborn in Vessel of Hatred. Such a design can not only meet players’ expectations of classic character types, but also bring fresh experiences and deeper strategic choices to the game. But because characters like a Paladin or Crusader-type class carry more than ten years of players’ emotions and memories, these classes in the new expansion face high expectations. In order to satisfy a wide range of player preferences, they need to include some iconic skills and gameplay, such as Blessed Hammer spam or Captain America shield throws. This is not only a tribute to the classics but also the key to ensuring the freshness and depth of the characters. In summary, the addition of this new profession not only can satisfy the long-standing players’ desire for classic character types, but also further enrich their action role-playing game experience while keeping the game fresh. As the game continues to move forward, we can expect more innovations and surprises. Finally, no matter where you encounter difficulties in the game, you can pay attention to the Giveaway channel in the iGMeet discord, which will release Diablo 4 related product giveaway information from time to time, and you can also discuss gameplay with players in the discord group.Nov-06-2024

Diablo 4 Season 6: How To U ...
With the launch of Diablo 4 Season Of Hatred Rising, various new Classes, new Exploration Areas, and various new Quests and Challenge Events have appeared. They have all begun to enter the players’ field of vision and are explored by the majority of players. Different in-game Quests or Events usually have their own unique Mechanisms. Only by understanding these Mechanisms can players freely play the corresponding Events to obtain the desired game Rewards, such as Diablo 4 Gold or various game Materials and Weapons. As a relatively large Event in Season Of Hatred Rising, Zakarum Remnants can not only get rich game fun by participating in it but also have Rewards. Therefore, it is very necessary for players to understand how to participate in this Quest and how to get as many Rewards as possible in Quest. Based on this, we will introduce players to the relevant Event information and gameplay methods of Zakarum Remnants. What Is Zakarum Remnants? Zakarum Remnants is a relatively important Quest. The reason it has this name is that the plot in Quest actually revolves around Organization Zakarum Order. If you are a player who has played Diablo 4 Series of games before, I believe you will not be unfamiliar with this Organization. It is also called Church Of Light, an Organization created by Akarat, an important Character in Main Plot of Season 6, when he was still a Human. In the early days of Organization, they helped Horadrim Seal Mephisto in Travincal. However, as Organization matured, some people found that the leadership of Zakarum Order began to be infiltrated by Mephisto’s power. Therefore, Zakarum Order gradually lost the respect of believers, and internal strife began to continue within Organization. However, small splinters of Zakarum Faithful are still active and in sharp contrast to Lord Of Hatred. The above pre-plot is the foreshadowing of Quest Zakarum Remnants. Players’ understanding of these contents will help them better understand Quest Mechanism for subsequent Challenges. How To Start Zakarum Remnants Quest? To begin this Quest, the player must first find and speak with Crusader Damon in Zarbinzet, who is located in the northwest of City’s Portal and is relatively easy to find. Once you have spoken to him, you can begin Quest. Crusader Damon in Zarbinzet will tell you about Mephisto’s Resurgence and Zones of Hatred Rising that are popping up all over Sanctuary. You need to be careful with these Zones, as they contain many of Mephisto’s Servants. Although Zakarum Remnants in Quest are not powerful enough to help the player face Mephisto directly, they will do their best to assist the player if they can prove that they are Fighting Lord of Hatred or his Forces. What Rewards Can Be Obtained In Zakarum Remnants Quest? Rewards obtained in this Quest are mainly based on the player’s Reputation Level, and Quest will provide players with 12 Reward Caches. Each Reward Cache may contain useful Diablo 4 Items. For each Level of Reputation increase, players can get corresponding Reward Cache from Crusader Damon in Zarbinzet. The following are the specific Rewards for 12 Reward Caches: 1. Abnormal Weapon: One Weapon and Elixirs. 2. Eerie Samples: Baneful Hearts and Seething Opals. 3. Antique Case: Weapons and Crafting Materials. 4. Aromatic Case: A Weapon, Elixirs, and Crafting Materials. 5. Gift Of Realms: Gem Fragments, a Scattered Prism, and two Uniques for your Class. 6. Que-Hegan Steel: Legendaries, Infernal Compasses, Baneful Hearts, and Crafting Materials. 7. Protectors’ Warmth: Legendaries, Boss Summoning Materials, Artificer’s Stones, and Crafting Materials. 8. Kurast Refinery: Legendaries, Obducite, Gem Fragments, and Scattered Prisms. 9. Legacy Of Disgrace: Uniques, Artificer’s Stones, and Boss Summoning Materials. 10. Window To Creation: Ancestral Legendaries and Crafting Materials. 11. Spoils Of The Realm Conqueror: Ancestral Legendaries and Boss Summoning Materials. 12. Severed Hand Of The Zakarum: Ancestral Legendaries, Ancestral Uniques, and many Materials. How To Farm Zakarum Remnants Reputation In Quest? According to the previous content, the player’s Reputation Level determines how much Reward the player will get, so the player needs to know how to Farm Reputation in order to get as many Reward Caches as possible to open Rewards. 1. Killing Enemies In Zones Of Hatred Rising Although there is no obvious pattern to how often you gain Reputation overall, you will usually get notified about every 10 Enemies you Kill in Zones Of Hatred Rising. 2. Get Seething Opals Seething Opals are actually a new Unique Consumable in Diablo 4 Season Of Hatred Rising. By taking Seething Opals in Zones Of Hatred Rising, players will gain Reputation much faster. Alternatively, you can consume a Seething Opal first and then participate in Events such as Helltide or Artificer’s Pit, as these Events will provide numerous Enemies for you to Kill. In addition, you can get Seething Opals by opening Caches in Zakarum Remnants or completing another Realmwalker Event. The above is some information about Zakarum Remnants Quest. If you want to know more, you can go to iGMeet Discord to discuss with game enthusiasts. Here you also have the opportunity to win game prizes through the giveaway channel!Oct-11-2024

Diablo 4 Season 6: How To G ...
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 Enemies routinely drop Artificar’s Stones Enemies sometimes drop Boss Summoning Items or Infernal Compasses as rewards Kills give Zakarum Remnants Reputation You have a 15% Experience Buff Seething Opal Of Socketables Enemies routinely drop additional Gem Fragments Enemies occasionally drop Runes Kills give Zakarum Remnants Reputation You have a 15% Experience Buff 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. There will be a giveaway event on October 14th in Giveaway channel, where 200 Duriel Materials, 200 Andariel Materials, 500 Malignant Heart as well as 1,000 Exquisite Blood will be given out equally to 10 participants.

Diablo 4 Season 1 Leveling ...
With the eagerly awaited Diablo 4 Season 1 - Malignant just around the corner, it's essential to be prepared with the best leveling builds for each class. A solid leveling build optimizes your character's progression and efficiency during the leveling process, enabling you to tackle challenges and quests with ease as you advance through the game. By focusing on specific strengths and playstyles, these builds ensure you level up more quickly and smoothly, enhancing your overall Diablo experience. No. 1 Barbarian - Hammer the Ancients (HotA) For Barbarians, the Hammer the Ancients build is the top choice for Diablo 4 Season 1 leveling. This build revolves around obtaining the offensive aspect of ancestral forces early on, which significantly boosts AOE damage and overall offensive capabilities. You can find this aspect in the Sunken Ruins dungeon in Scosland, with a suggested level of 15. However, skilled players may attempt it at lower levels in hardcore mode with caution. No. 2 Rogue - Twisting Blades Twisting Blades stands as the best leveling build for Rogues in Diablo 4 Season 1. This versatile build can effortlessly transition into the end-game, making it a wise choice for long-term progression. Additionally, players may choose between two variations: the classic Twisting Blades build or the Shadow Trap variation. Both are potent and effective, offering different playstyles to suit individual preferences. The blade dancer's offensive aspect from the dungeon Jalal's Vigil in Shazam is a valuable addition to maximize the build's potential. No. 3 Necromancer - Bone Spear Necromancer Embrace the Bone Spear Necromancer build, a formidable Season 1 leveling choice that seamlessly transitions into the end-game. This build boasts high damage output and provides a smooth progression experience. Early on, maintaining the Golem may help solo players overcome challenges. Obtaining the splintering offensive aspect from Guulrahn Slums in the Dry Steppes is crucial to enhance the build's power. No. 4 Druid - Tornado & Pulverized Builds Druids have two exceptional leveling options for Season 1: the Tornado build and the Pulverized build. The Tornado build requires no legendary drops, making it a reliable choice for early leveling. It offers great tools without relying on any legendary powers. The Pulverized build, on the other hand, excels in AOE damage and survivability, providing an equally strong leveling experience. For both builds, certain aspects like the resource aspect of the umbral and the shock wave offensive aspect can enhance their potential. No. 5 Sorcerer - Chain Lightning Last but not least, the Chain Lightning build takes the top spot for Sorcerers in Diablo 4 Season 1. This build can be quickly established, with the core chain lightning being available early on in the second group of abilities. For players who have already taken care of their renown beforehand, leveling becomes even smoother. While the recharging aspect from Zenith in Fractured Peaks is helpful, it is not essential for the build's success. In conclusion, the Diablo 4 Season 1 leveling tier list offers valuable insights into the best leveling builds for all classes. These optimized builds enable players to progress through the game efficiently and effectively, ensuring an enjoyable and rewarding gaming experience. As the season approaches, aspiring Nephalem warriors can prepare to embark on their journey through Sanctuary with the confidence of a formidable leveling build at their side. Prepare your weapons, hone your skills, and embrace the power of your chosen class as you rise to greatness in Diablo 4's Season 1 - Malignant!Jul-27-2023
