Diablo 4 Season 7 Occult Gems: What Do You Need To Craft Them?

Diablo 4’s Vessel of Hatred expansion has been released for a while, and many players have completed the storyline in DLC and experienced the fun of Spiritborn. However, the game did not stop because of a successful update. Instead, it is making final preparations for the upcoming Halloween event. According to official news, Diablo 4 will officially launch the “macabre celebration” Halloween event at 10 am Pacific Time on October 29, and it will last until the same time on November 5. During this period, all participating players will receive a series of limited-time free store items as rewards. In addition, a particularly noteworthy highlight is Butcher-exclusive “Meat or Treat” Dungeon Shrine modifier, which will also be available during this period. This means that players can explore more different game content through this interesting mechanism. For players who like Diablo 4 series and want to spend a Halloween holiday full of surprises and fun in the game, it is definitely worth logging in to the game during this period. Whether you want to collect rare items, accumulate Diablo 4 Gold, or just feel the festive atmosphere, the “macabre celebration” can meet your needs. Free Goodies Diablo 4’s Halloween event brings a series of exciting benefits to players, the most notable of which is that during the event, players can get free store items by simply logging into the game. This generous move can make every participant feel the sincerity of the development team and the importance of the player community. Specifically, starting from October 29, a new cosmetic item will be available in the store every day for players to receive for free. Each cosmetic item has a unique design. It should be noted that although Halloween event itself will last until November 5, the free cosmetic items will end on November 1. Besides the free cosmetics, Diablo 4’s Halloween event also includes the following free items: October 29: Recluse’s Host Mount October 30: Ichorflame Torch Mount Trophy October 31: Recluse’s Flask Mount Trophy November 1: Reclusive Trappings Mount Armor In Diablo 4’s Halloween event, October 29 marks the start of a series of unique and seasonal free mounts and loot for players to claim in the in-game store. First up is Recluse’s Host Mount, a uniquely designed zombie horse with a decayed flesh and empty eye sockets that perfectly fit the horror theme of Halloween, adding a festive touch to players’ rides through the vast world of Sanctuary. Then, on the next day, October 30, players can claim Ichorflame Torch Mount Trophy, a creative item featuring a large recluse spider with one side clasping a burning flame, adding a mysterious and powerful aura to the player’s character. On the last day of the event, November 1, the store will offer Reclusive Trappings Mount Armor, a piece of armor designed specifically for the aforementioned zombie horse, which is covered in dense spider webs to make its entire body more terrifying and also strengthen the mount’s defense capabilities. During this Halloween event, players do not need to log in to the game every day to claim the free items. Each date marks the time when the item is available in the store, and players can claim it after the item is available until November 5 at 12 noon Pacific Time. Therefore, as long as players log in once between November 1 and November 5, they can claim all the free decorative items offered by the event. If you want some other game items, you can pay attention to Diablo 4 Season 6 giveaway event that iGMeet discord has been doing. Just leave your favorite emoji to participate in the draw. Also Read: Long-Term Diablo 4 Promotions & Giveaways - Real And Valid A Dungeon Modifier Diablo 4 also launched Butcher’s ‘Meat or Treat’ event during Halloween event. The essence of this event lies in its influence mechanism on Dungeon Shrines. When players activate any Dungeon Shrines during the event, they may trigger this special effect. Once activated, Shrines will show different “surprise” effects from the usual, which may include additional loot, enhanced attributes or other unexpected gains. However, although these surprise effects are tempting, they may also be accompanied by certain risks and challenges, which will have unpredictable negative effects on the operation of the dungeon. Therefore, for players who are eager to explore and experience this event, how to wisely choose when and where to activate the dungeon shrine during the event from October 29 to November 5 has become an important strategic consideration. Although Diablo 4’s Halloween event may not include a lot of substantial game content updates, it is worth being able to receive a few new cosmetic items for free during the holiday. In addition, regarding Butcher’s game of “Meat or Treat,” Diablo 4 development team has maintained a mysterious silence and has not clearly informed players of the specific advantages and disadvantages they will face after activating a Dungeon Shrine. Players need to explore and experience the event content in person after the event starts in order to discover the secrets and surprises. This may mean that activating a Dungeon Shrine after the event is officially launched may bring some unexpected benefits.

Diablo 4 Season 6 is coming with a series of updates and changes that will reshape the player experience. Through PTR experience of 2.0 major update, we already know that Vessel of Hatred will introduce important changes that affect all classes and builds. Now that PTR is over, have you decided which class and build you should choose to experience the new Season 6 content? This guide will provide you with predictions for the best class and build based on the upcoming changes. Class Changes Players will gain additional skill points between levels 50 and 60 to adjust your build. The maximum level of the character is capped at level 60. After reaching level 60, players will transition to Paragon levels, further strengthening the build. World tiers have been restructured. Players will now advance through new difficulty levels called Normal, Hard, Expert, and Penitent then unlock Torment levels. Ancestral items will drop at the beginning of the Torment level, and the introduction of new item qualities will change the way players equip in the endgame stages. Season 6 Class Tier List The impact of new skills, changes to Paragon system, item quality adjustments, and the introduction of Rune Words will all have an impact on class rankings in Season 6. When considering the general enhancements and the impact of the new systems being introduced on Season 6, an early preview of Season 6 class tier list is given below. 1. Spiritborn Tier: S Spiritborn is equipped with a range of active and passive skills, such as Concussive Stomp and Vortex. Not only do these skills introduce new strategic options that will hopefully increase their adaptability in a variety of game situations, but they also have the potential to create powerful synergies with other game mechanics. Therefore, it is well worth spending some Diablo 4 Gold to acquire equipment that can enhance Spiritborn’s damage output. 2. Necromancer Tier: S Some of the Necromancer’s key skills have been significantly improved. Blood Lance can now pierce through enemies and gain suppression effects after multiple casts. The newly added ultimate skill S Rift can absorb souls to deal damage and create a defensive barrier. Enhanced passive skills also further improve Necromancer’s utility and damage output. 3. Sorcerer Tier: S Sorcerer gains a summon skill that dynamically adjusts based on the last element used. The passive skill Enlightenment significantly increases damage output under certain conditions and optimizes elemental damage synergy. The update of Rune words expands Sorcerer’s cross-class tactical options. 4. Barbarian Tier: A Barbarian introduces new skills and passive skills. Barbed Carapace passive skill can improve Thorns builds, while new skills such as Pulse AOE and Mighty Throw can enhance Barbarian’s diversity and crowd control capabilities. These skills, combined with the rich Paragon board, improve Barbarian’s utility and damage. 5. Rogue Tier: B Rogue will gain a new skill that enhances mobility and attack power. The adjustment of passive skills focuses on enhancing elemental damage and injecting additional effects into skills. But compared with other professions, these updates are far from enough. 6. Druid Tier: C Druid’s Stone Burst skill will be buffed, while the One with Nature passive is designed to greatly enhance companion abilities, but Druid will still be in the lower tier unless further adjustments are made after PTR. Builds Tier List Our ranking of the best builds in Diablo 4 Season 6 based on the changes in PTR is as follows: 1. Lightning Spear Sorcerer Lightning Spear Sorcerer was the best build in Season 5, and it is still a top choice in Season 6. It benefits from a conjuration mastery cap increase to 30, which enhances its already strong damage output. With the addition of splintering buff and rune word benefits, it can deal more deadly damage. The inclusion of War Cry in its arsenal further consolidates its leading position. 2. Bleed Builds Bleed Builds may not have a particularly strong performance in Season 6. Despite this, players have always maintained a high level of enthusiasm for testing and optimizing these builds. But without major innovations in build strategies, they are not expected to reach the top level. 3. Rapid Fire Rogue Rapid Fire Rogue impressed players with its high damage output in Season 5. Its adjustments in PTR are not expected to have an impact on its high damage. Therefore, it will still be a solid choice for players looking for a stable performance. 4. Bone Spirit Necromancer Bone Spirit Necromancer may see a boost in survivability in Season 6. Double damage with the new update may make this build even more popular. Each of these builds has unique advantages and disadvantages, and their ultimate survivability may change further in PTR. If you are missing some items or equipment when doing these builds, you can follow Giveaway channel in iGMeet discord, which often releases product giveaway information for Diablo 4, and you can explore these builds with more players in the discord group and pay attention to more powerful builds.

Diablo 4 Season 5 brings a plethora of new items, game modes, and seasonal quests. As players dive into Season of Infernal Hordes, many are looking for a fun and efficient leveling build to quickly reach the late game. While each class has multiple viable leveling strategies, Necromancer’s Minion build is considered one of the best options. In Season 4, Necromancer’s Minion build received several buffs, and an interesting new Legendary Aspect was introduced to the game to enhance the build’s survivability. Here are some suggestions on how to play Minion Necromancer and successfully reach level 100 in this season, including equipment selection, Skill Tree walkthrough, and Book of the Dead advice. Best Build Necromancer’s Minions have undergone significant buffs in Season 4, and these improvements make a minion-centric build the preferred option for leveling up Necromancer. The most prominent of these improvements is the tweak to the defensive abilities of minions, which greatly increases their duration. Combined with some of the new gear and Legendary Aspects introduced in Season 5, this makes a minion-focused Necromancer build a strong, true Army of the Dead Power fantasy, and also highlights the importance of Diablo 4 Gold in acquiring this precious resource. You can also stay up to date with the game’s Giveaway channel by being active in iGMeet discord group. Skill Tree Walkthrough Skill tree for Minion Necromancer can seem a little unusual in its early stages, mainly because players tend not to pick the first node of skills. However, Diablo 4’s progression system dictates that players must invest 2 points in Basic Abilities Node before continuing, which often results in players having to randomly allocate these two points to Sever and/or Decompose. Beyond that, though, this build is fairly passive, with the main purpose of providing players with a steady supply of corpses to use with Corpse Tendrils or Raise Skeleton. Basic Abilities These skills are only used when there is room in Hotbar, and are usually replaced by other skills when the player reaches level 25-30. Depending on the player’s preference for melee or ranged combat, you can choose to allocate two skill points to Sever or Decompose. Core Skills Before Necromancer’s Minions are enhanced, this version relies on Blood Surge for its main damage output. This version only provides 2 skill points, but this limitation is not critical because the skill will not be displayed in Hotbar unless the player chooses not to use full minions in the late game. Blood Surge (2/5) Enhanced Blood Surge Paranormal Blood Surge Unliving Energy (3/3) Imperfectly Balanced (3/3) Hewed Flesh (3/3) Corpse And Macabre Skills This is when Necromancer’s Minions start to wreak havoc on the enemy. However, besides getting more passive buffs, players should also choose the best defense for Necromancer’s best - Bloodmist. Blood Mist (1/5) Enhanced Blood Mist Ghastly Blood Mist Spiked Armor (2/3) Skeleton Warrior Mastery (3/3) Grim Harvest (2/3) Fueled by Death (3/3) Curse Skills At this level, players need to allocate 2 points to Iron Maiden to gain Essence Generation and bonus damage, but it is more critical to focus on the multiple useful passive skills provided by this node. Iron Maiden (1/5) Enhanced Iron Maiden Death’s Embrace (3/3) Amplify Damage (3/3) Death’s Approach (3/3) Skeletal Mage Mastery (3/3) Corpse And Macabre Skills (2) This is when Minion Necromancer gets all the important CCs and primary Defensive Statistics. At this stage, the build should be able to handle Elite Packs and Mini-Bosses with some ease while the player can watch from the back. Corpse Tendrils (1/5) Enhanced Corpse Tendrils Plagued Corpse Tendrils Necrotic Carapace (3/3) Ultimate Skills This is where the player needs to keep the ultimate build in mind. For a pure Minion build later on, remove all points from Blood Surge and Imperfectly Balanced and invest in Army of the Dead and some extra passive skills here. However, if players want to switch to Blood Surge Build, then don’t choose Army of the Dead. Here are the two options side by side. Pure Minion Build Transition Blood Surge (2→0/3) Remove upgrades Imperfectly Balanced (3→0/3) Army of the Dead Prime Army of the Dead Supreme Army of the Dead Golem Mastery (3/3) Hellbent Commader (3/3) Inspiring Leader (3/3) Reaper's Pursuit (1/3) Terror (1/3) Gloom (1/3) Blood Surge Build Transition Blood Surge (2 → 3/5) Spiked Armor (2 → 1/3) Golem Mastery (3/3) Hellbent Commander (3/3) Inspiring Leader (3/3) Key Passives There is only one passive skill that benefits Minion Necromancer, and that is Kalan’s Edict. This passive is especially powerful for those who will continue to grow minions in World Tiers 3 and 4, as the items dropped there increase the maximum number of minions. Book Of The Dead The Book Of The Dead is fairly simple for Minion Necromancer. Just pick those options that maximize the damage of horde. In this version, the real damage output is handled by Skeletal Mages, who will gain most of the buffs from their gear. Skeletal Warriors Reapers - Option 2 There is a 15% chance to convert enemies hit into corpses. Skeletal Mages Shadow Mages - Option 1 Deal 3% additional damage for each active mage. Golem Blood Golem - Option 2 Golem heals the player by 5% for each enemy drained with its active ability Golem gains 25% damage reduction and 50% increased damage while Healthy Itemization The items in this version are designed to increase the damage output of the player’s minions while ensuring that the player himself has enough survivability. Look for a gear with the following traits: Weapon Damage Damage Increase (%) Intelligence Maximum Life Critical Strike Chance Critical Strike Damage Vulnerable Damage Movement Speed Useful Legendary Aspects While it is impossible to pick the best combination of Aspects from the litter of Aspects during upgrades, as players are limited by RNG and material resources, the following Legendary Aspects are very suitable for this build: Reanimation (Aldurwood in Scosglen) Grasping Veins (Corrupting Grotto in Kehjistan) Unyielding Commander’s (Faceless Shrine in Hawezar) Aphotic (Random Drop) Frenzied Dead (Random Drop) Occult Dominion (Random Drop) Shademist (Random Drop) Coldbringers (Random Drop) Sly Steps (Random Drop) Drop) Hardened Bones (Random Drop) The Great Feast (Random Drop) If players are lucky enough to choose between multiple aspects of gear, you should prioritize the following aspects: Hardened Bones, Occult Dominion, Frenzied Dead, Shademist, Coldbringers, and The Great Feast. Useful Unique Items The drop time of unique items may vary depending on the player’s luck. Here are some unique items worth equipping: Ring of the Sacrilegious Soul Deathspeaker’s Pendant the Mortacrux Ring of Mendeln Whether it is a novice player or an experienced player, Necromancer’s Minion build is an ideal choice for exploring the fifth season content. It not only brings an efficient upgrade experience but also allows players to enjoy the iconic dark fantasy atmosphere of the Diablo series. So, prepare your Necromancer, summon your Minions, and let’s go deep into the adventure of Diablo 4 Season 5 together!

Blizzard has released patch 2.7 for Diablo 2 Resurrected ahead of the start of season 4 on May 4. The latest update brings some buffs to the Assassin and Druid classes, as well as a change to the Next Hit Delay system. This change will allow certain skills to land on a single enemy in quick succession where they would have been affected by a shared cooldown before, resulting in improved damage consistency. Additionally, four additional character slots have been added across all online modes, allowing players to partake in season 4 without having to delete any of their old characters. Characters that have been transferred to non-ladder from previous seasons will have their respec counter reset, providing players with more opportunities to experiment with their builds. However, players are advised to transfer any items from ladder season 2 to regular storage before season 4 begins, as they will lose access to these items once the new season starts. Finally, Druids can now shapeshift directly between Werewolf and Werebear forms, making it easier to gain the bonuses from both forms. This is great news for players using the Metamorphosis Diablo 2 Resurrected Runeword introduced last season. This season marks the final season of Diablo 2 Resurrected before the highly anticipated release of Diablo 4. Season 4 is an opportunity for players to start fresh and prove their skills by bringing their favourite class to level 99 faster than anyone else. With the added improvements and changes in patch 2.7, players can look forward to an even more exciting season of Diablo 2 Resurrected. Diablo 2 Resurrected season 4 start date and time
