Diablo 4 Season 8 New Battle Pass System: It Has Received A Major Overhaul!

Diablo 4, which is loved by many players, will enter its seventh season on January 21st, with the theme of Season of Witchcraft. It has added a lot of new game content, including but not limited to the addition of Witchcraft powers, a new game reputation system, and a new zone event called Headhunts that will be introduced in this guide. In this new game event, you may experience a completely different combat experience and functions from previous seasons. Here, we will give you a detailed introduction to these Headhunts and the new game content based on the information currently released, so that you can explore it after the season is released. About Headhunts Headhunts in Season 7 are similar to Helltides in previous seasons, so like this type of event, Tree of Whispers will periodically activate it in random areas of Sanctuary. After activation, several types of specific events will be provided in these areas, and each event will provide you with Grim Favors. You can think of Headhunts as similar to Helltides, where you have to fight bosses like Restless Rot, defeat specific enemies in specific areas, and patrol areas with NPCs. In most cases, you can complete the specific events in one go if your build is strong enough. Headrotten Headrotten is also a new addition to Sanctuary, and there are several variants of enemies. After you defeat these very scary monsters, you will be rewarded with Restless Rot, which is an important crafting material for Season 7’s new gear Occult Gems, as well as a large amount of Diablo 4 Gold. Completing Whispers in Headhunt will spawn numerous Exposed Roots, and there is a certain chance to get Uprooted Cocoon, which can spawn some Headless Husks. These Husks have a chance to be possessed by Fugitive Head, so you need to defeat these very complex monsters one by one in Headrotten. It’s important to note that exploring Headrotten at higher difficulty levels and using the new Draught of Whispers will increase your chances of encountering those Husks, so if you want to farm gear and Diablo 4 Gold in it, you can do it in Torment IV. After you defeat Elites, you can pick up Fugitive Head, which you can use with Restless Rot and Gem Fragments to craft Occult Gems at Tree of Whispers. Of course, as Diablo 4 items, these new gems will also have Magic, Rare, and Legendary differences, and the characteristics and effects they can provide to build are also different. Headhunt Whispers You can find a variety of Whisper activities and objectives in Headhunt, which is the most effective way to gain The Coven Reputation in Season 7. Some tasks only take a minute or two to complete. Although some activities can be a bit tedious, it's fun to just look at them as a way to farm reputation. Here are the names of the specific Whispers activities and the tasks you need to complete in them. Dispel: Kill enemies standing in a large purple void zone. However, it should be noted that enemies will continue to spawn in this zone, and you need to defeat a steady stream of enemies until runs out. Fugitive: Defeat a Headless Husk in any area where Headhunt is activated. Patrol: Defeat enemies in the circular boundary of the patrolling guard, which can be found by the shield icon on the minimap. Purge the Rot: Kill any Headrotten enemies while Headhunt is active. Scour: Search for a specified number of herbs in a specified area. The advice here is to collect as many herbs as possible, because you will also need them in high quantities in combat. Seek: Talk to ghostly frogs and follow them for a distance. Your focus is not on these frogs, but on the Headrotten that will appear at any time and kill them. Shepherd: Enter the boundary around wild animals and accompany them to the safety zone. Wisps: This is the hardest of the entire activity. You need to destroy Exposed Root and follow Wisps that just spawned, but stay within its boundaries. During this time, you also need to kill a group of Headrotten. This process will repeat several times until Wisps’ health is fully restored. Slay: Kill designated Elite enemies in Headhunt zone. About Silent Rootholds In fact, Silent Rootholds is very similar to Hellbreaches, Nightmare Dungeons, and Infernal Hordes, which are short-lived seasonal dungeons. The information currently known is that some familiar mechanics may appear in it, such as the need to use Whispering Woods before exploring, which is very similar to Nightmare Dungeon Sigils in previous seasons. Once you enter Silent Roothold, you may encounter Rites, Rituals, and Ceremonies, which are actually very similar to Boons and Banes in Infernal Hordes in Season 5, increasing the rewards you get from exploring, such as Diablo 4 Gold and loot, but the difficulty will be greatly increased. Here are some examples for you to use as a reference. Rite of Engorged Hearts: Increases the health of Root-spawned enemies by 20%, and adds an Exposed Roots spawn in the next section. Rite of Hubris: Increases the damage of Root-spawned Bosses and Elites by 50%, and adds an Exposed Roots spawn in the next section. Ritual of Aching Thirst: The cooldown of potions you use in this mechanic is increased by 3 seconds, but Roots now grant you a Minor Reward. Ritual of Futility: Root-spawned Bosses and Elites in this mechanic have a chance to become Unstoppable, but grant you a Minor Reward. Ritual of Rust and Rain: All your resistances in this mechanic are reduced by 20%, but the rewards you receive from Roots are increased by one. Ritual of Shackles: Your dodge cooldown is increased by 3 seconds, but also grants you a Minor Reward. These are some mechanics you can currently encounter in Silent Rootholds, but it should be noted that there are many criteria for completing this dungeon, such as performing two 2 Rites, removing Exposed Roots, or defeating a boss, etc. You can choose the mechanics you want to challenge after the new season is released, although they will sometimes appear repeatedly. The above are some details about Headhunts in the upcoming Diablo 4 Season 7. In this new season, you may get a completely different gaming experience in the new game content, but before exploring, if your gold inventory is insufficient, you can participate in the frequent giveaways in iGMeet Discord, so that you can get a step ahead at the beginning of the season and get the strongest build. I wish you a happy game!

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 does not contain complex puzzles mechanics, but its new Vessel of Hatred DLC has changed this situation and introduces a series of puzzle chests. And brazier puzzle remains one of them. Whether you choose the new class Spiritborn as your character, or continue with the familiar class, you are bound to deal with these braziers, eventually. Brazier puzzle serves as a part of the main questline “All Good Things”. Only by solving this puzzle can you continue the journey. It also shows up in any standard cellar, making it pretty hard to track down. And the even tricker problem comes to the method to figure it out. This article introduces the detailed solution of brazier puzzle, paving the path for you to complete the main questline and continue your game journey. Origin Of Brazier Puzzle If you are not familiar with the puzzles, then you may feel confused and tricky about its one. But if you excel in solving puzzles and have a deeper study and exploration of puzzles, you will find the fact that this puzzle actually has its own origin and source. Brazier puzzle is essentially a remake of the electronic puzzle game “Lights Out” released by Tiger Electronics in 1995, which requires you to light all braziers to claim the prize. Although it sounds simple, for those players who are not equipped with enough puzzle knowledge, this task becomes a tough challenge. Solution To Brazier Puzzle Once you have successfully tracked this puzzle down, whether during the journey looking for Akarat’s tomb or searching cellars for treasure, please get ready for straining your head. The overall game rules are very simple, lighting up all braziers to open the door at the far end of the room. Based on the design of the game, when you light one brazier, the state of two braziers directly approaching it–but not diagonal to it–will be changed simultaneously. In other words, if the adjacent braziers are previously lit, they will be extinguished after you light the target brazier. This is also the trickiest part of the entire process. In “All Good Things” questline, since there are only four braziers, the overall difficulty is reduced. The one-step solution is to imagine these four braziers as points on a compass. The brazier closest to the entrance is the southern one, and the brazier closest to the exit is the northern one. Then light them up in the following order: West South West North East West This way you can light up all the braziers effortlessly. If you have messed up the order before getting this answer, you need to exit the game and reset it to help you get back to the previous step. Then solve the puzzle in the order stated above. Or if you are usually very interested in solving puzzles, you can also try to solve it yourself to add a little fun and challenge to your thrilling game journey. In the process of solving the puzzle, you must also prevent the enemy’s attack. But overall, these bad guys are not too troublesome and are relatively easy to defeat. If you choose to seek to the correct order by trial and error, then it will drastically intensify the danger that you are going to encounter. Once you have accomplished this puzzle smoothly, the way leading to the next stage will be automatically unlocked and you are available to access to the last trial and Akarat’s tomb with Eru and Neyrelle. All Good Things Questline All Good Things serves as the main questline that is exclusive to Vessel of Hatred DLC. Completing “In His Footsteps” quest will automatically unlock “All Good Things”. As a main quest, players must complete a specific storyline to get the eligibility to the next difficulty level. And you are required to accomplish the challenges lie below: Enter Tomb of Akarat Find Burial Chamber with Eru and Neyrelle Defend Neyrelle while she accomplishes the trial Speak with Eru Slay Forgotten Warden Enter Burial Chamber with Eru and Neyrelle Survive the Onslaught Collect Akarat’s Power Slay Harbinger of Hate Speak with Neyrelle Head to Reflection’s Edge by portal Solving the brazier puzzle earns you the right to enter Burial Chamber with Eru and Neyrelle. Rewards For Completing All Good Things 1,321,962 XP 29,400 Diablo 4 Gold After successfully completing All Good Things, Vessel of Hatred expansion is basically over. Want to know the ending? Then figure out the puzzle to search for the answer by yourself. That’s the way to figure out the brazier puzzle in Vessel of Hatred DLC.

In Diablo 4 Season 6, Rogue has undergone a major overhaul, with significant improvements in agility and damage. This has made Penetrating Shot Rogue build, which focuses on high burst damage, the choice of many players. In this build, you only need to use a few accurate shots to defeat the enemy easily. For the endgame build with stronger survivability and damage capabilities, defeating some medium-difficulty enemies is no problem at all. But it is precisely because the difficulty of enemies or bosses in the endgame content will be much more difficult than the leveling stage, so it is very important to choose the most suitable skills and items for them. If you still have no idea and don’t want to invest too much trial-and-error costs, then this guide will be your best helper. Here, you will be introduced to how to choose the best build items in this Penetrating Shot Rogue endgame build so that it can be used to its maximum effectiveness. Skills Penetrating Shot is a pretty simple piercing arrow on its own, but if you combine it with Umbracrux dagger and Trickshot Aspect, this arrow becomes a nuke that can knock down a ton of enemies! But be careful with positioning. As the more enemies you hit in the path of this arrow, the more damage you will do. So your skills and passives are all about making sure this arrow is accurate, and secondly, focus on stacking Critical Strike Damage. This way the entire build will have the maximum damage to enemies, so you can quickly complete some exploration tasks and pick up Diablo 4 Gold dropped by enemies. Here are some skills and passives you can place in the skill tree for Penetrating Shot Rogue endgame build. Note that the skill point numbers here are for reference only, and you can change them appropriately based on your play style. Active Skills Puncture - 1 Smoke Grenade - 1 Penetrating Shot - 5 Shadow Step - 1 Dash - 1 Poison Imbuement - 1 Death Trap - 5 Dark Shroud - 5 Passive Skills Sturdy - 3 Siphoning Strikes - 3 Stutter Steps - 2 Weapon Mastery - 3 Unstable Elixirs - 3 Trick Attacks - 3 Rapid Gambits - 1 Agile - 2 Exploit - 3 Malice - 3 Frigid Finesse - 3 Innervation - 3 Second Wind - 3 Precision - 1 Rugged - 3 Balestra - 1 Aftermath - 1 Victimize - 1 Best Rotation Once you have all your skills equipped, you can start beating some low-level enemies to determine which rotation is best for you. But if you just want to deal the most damage, you can use Heartseeker to accumulate combo points first, and then cast Death Trap to group enemies together for maximum damage later. After that, you can deploy Poison Trap to poison the enemies, which will increase their damage to subsequent attacks and trigger fancy totems from Umbracrux. Next, you can use Shadow Step or Dash to enter the battle perfectly and activate Tricks of the Trade, which will help you increase your bonus damage. Finally, cast Penetrating Shot to penetrate those already dying enemies and make them deal the final blow. So the best Specialization setup in this Penetrating Shot Rogue endgame build is Combo Points, which will allow your Heartseeker to accumulate points at a faster rate, which is the origin of everything. Best Legendary Aspects After choosing skills, it’s time to start choosing Diablo 4 Items. The first thing we’ll cover is Legendary Aspects, because they are very important to the damage and survivability of the entire build. Here are some of Legendary Aspects you can choose in this Penetrating Shot Rogue endgame build. Trickshot: Whenever a Penetrating Shot deals damage to an enemy, two additional arrows branch off on either side. These side arrows deal a percentage of Penetrating Shot’s base damage and do not branch. Rapid: Increases attack speed of basic skills. Edgemaster’s: Skills now deal increased damage based on your Primary Resource when activated. Might: The basic skill grants damage reduction. Expectant: After attacking an enemy with a basic skill, the damage to the next core skill will be increased. Energizing: Dealing damage to an elite enemy with a basic skill generates 4 energy. Protector: Dealing damage to elite enemies grants you a barrier that absorbs the damage. Wind Striker: Critical strikes give you an additional movement speed boost. Aspect of Unstable Imbuements: When you activate an Imbuement Skill, an explosion occurs around you. Enshrouding: Using a Healing Potion will create a free Dark Shroud Shadow. Umbrous Aspect: Critical strikes grant a free Dark Shroud Shadow. Crowded Sage: Increase your chances of dodging. Dodging also restores your maximum life. Concussive Strikes: When you damage an enemy, you can Daze them. Accelerating: Critical attacks using core skills increase attack speed. Elements: Increased damage against a range of damage types, switching between Fire, Lightning, Physical and Cold, Poison, Shadow. Best Gear After you equip Legendary Aspects, the next step is your gear. As before, your gear should still focus on your Critical Strikes and the mobility of your Penetrating Shot Rogue endgame build. So you can choose the following items based on these criteria. Runic Skullcap of Might - Helm Shroud of False Death - Chest Trickshot Runic Gloves - Glove Umbrous Runic Leggings - Pants Runic Cleats of Concussive Strikes - Boots Edgemaster’s Warcaster - Ranged Weapon Obsidian Blade of the Expectant - Melee Weapon Obsidian Blade of Elements - Melee Weapon Rapid Necklace - Amulet Accelerating Band - Ring Ring of Retribution - Ring The above are some of the build options for how to make the Penetrating Shot Rogue endgame build into a powerful build in Diablo 4 Season 6.
