Diablo 4 Season 9 New Hydra Sorcerer Build: Is This A Better Choice For Advancing The Pit?

In order to ensure the freshness and fun of the game, Diablo 4 always adds various new events or challenges in the new season, and sets generous rewards in them, so that you can earn enough Diablo 4 Gold for your character while carrying out exciting adventures. For example, in Season 7, which was launched on January 21st not long ago, besides the much-anticipated witchcraft power, it also brought you new challenges like Rootholds dungeon as a seasonal alternative to regular or nightmare dungeons. Because there are new challenges and bosses in Rootholds dungeon and better rewards, it is necessary to understand some of its mechanisms in advance before taking on the challenge to avoiding losses in the game. Based on this, we will provide you with a guide to exploring Rootholds. What Is Rootholds Dungeon? In fact, you can think of Rootholds as the nightmare dungeon of Season 7. While nightmare dungeons are still available in the new season, Rootholds are more worth the effort, as they have a much higher chance of dropping Diablo 4 Gold and other rewards than regular dungeons. And if you run Rootholds after unlocking at least Torment I, you also have a chance to get Ancestral Uniques. You need to find Rootholds before you can enter them, and to do this, you must first obtain a special item called Whispering Woods. However, this item is a bit tricky to get, and you can only find some after you complete seasonal Grim Favors and open Silent chests. And even more, unfortunately, the drops from Whispering Woods are not guaranteed, so if you are unlucky, you may need to complete several Grim Favors to get one. But since collecting Whispering Woods is the only way to enter Rootholds, make an effort to collect them and save them carefully. Where Is Rootholds Dungeon? When you have collected enough Whispering Woods as keys to enter Rootholds, you can activate them in your inventory and then activate regular dungeons into Rootholds just like you would nightmare dungeons. Once Rootholds appear, you can open the map in-game and teleport directly into that dungeon from your current location. These Rootholds will spawn anywhere on the map depending on your key, so be prepared. How To Explore Rootholds? If you’ve played Diablo 4 in the past and explored Infernal Hordes dungeon, everything about Rootholds may be familiar to you. After first entering Rootholds and going through the first passage, you’ll see several Enchanted Roots when you reach the surface. Each of these Enchanted Roots can act as a modifier to the root fortress, giving you a different difficulty level of Rootholds. Two of the four roots will give you easier modifiers, while the other two are more challenging. Usually you have to choose a modifier to further explore Rootholds, but it’s recommended to choose up to two if possible. Because if you choose a more difficult modifier, you can get more rewards after completing Rootholds. Next, after passing through the main gate, you should see certain points of interest on the mini-map, and approaching any of them you will find an Exposed Root as the source of a huge reward. Clicking on them will spawn a group of enemies in the game, and they will drop many unique items for you. And if you play Rootholds on Torment I difficulty or higher, you can also find Ancestral Uniques by clicking on Exposed Roots. It is worth noting that every enemy spawned by Rootholds is also Headrotten, so you can also get a lot of Restless Rot by clearing these dungeons - it is the exclusive currency of Season of Witchcraft. In fact, with enough Restless Rot, you can upgrade the witchcraft power or obtain the elusive unique witchcraft power for that season. After you successfully pass through Rootholds, you should encounter a gate with three additional modifiers, and choosing any two of them can further improve the rewards you get and increase the difficulty level, so you can fight all the way to the end. And if you want to get more loot, remember to interact with every Exposed Root you find. All Rootholds Dungeon Rewards After clearing each exposed root, you will go to the end of Rootholds and make Rootholds boss appear by touching the exposed root in the boss room. Most of the time, these bosses appear as headless shells, but sometimes bosses will grow a head, which you can get as a bonus after killing the boss with a head. These heads can be used to craft Occult gems, and after you put the gems in your jewelry slots, your character will get the final power boost, allowing them to break through as you enter higher Torment difficulties and Pit tiers. Even if the boss you encounter is a normal headless version, the amount of loot dropped after defeating them is still more than the normal Diablo 4 dungeon boss can provide. Rootholds dungeons have a lot of loot, from different levels of equipment to different levels of crafting recipes, which can help you complete the endgame more smoothly. Related: Diablo 4 Promotions & Giveaways Overall, Rootholds are fun, quick to complete, and one of the most rewarding Season Challenges in Season 7, so we strongly recommend you completing them as soon as possible.

Mythic Unique Items are among the most powerful items in the Diablo 4 DLC. They will always drop as Ancestral 800 Item Power equipment, which means they will come with at least one Greater Affix. There are currently 12 different Mythic Uniques in Diablo 4, which you can Masterworked at the Blacksmith to increase their power, however, they cannot be Tempered. Mythic Uniques were introduced in Diablo 4 Season 5, and I believe many old players know that these Mythic Unique items are very powerful and extremely rare, even rarer than Unique items. Normally, you can only get them from all Tormented Endgame Bosses. Although the developers said that they can still drop from normal enemies in the Sanctuary, everyone knows that it is almost impossible for us to find them this way. After all, none of us have seen this happen. So, in this guide, we’re going to share with you what I consider being the most efficient Mythic Unique farming routes to get as many Mythic Unique items as quickly as possible. Since Vessel of Hatred has so many different game modes, figuring out the best route to farm in the game can be very confusing and not at all obvious. With this guide, though, all your concerns will be put to rest. Without further ado, let’s get straight into it! Tips To Increase Your Farming Efficiency After some research and experimentation, we recommend a few tips you can try before you start farming that will maximize the number of Mythic Unique items you can get. First, it’s recommended that you prioritize running the highest Torment Difficulty Level so that you can easily kill monsters quickly. Then we also recommend that you choose a build like Infinite Evade Eagle Spiritborn, which is very fast in terms of movement and can help you greatly increase your efficiency in collecting Diablo 4 Gold and other loot. Run Helltides Then, you can go run Helltides and go around killing monsters to collect Aberrant Cinders. In addition to killing monsters, you should also kill the Blood Maiden when she is summoned, and if you have extra Baneful Hearts on you, you should even contribute more to her summoning, as this will be tied to the rewards you can get. The reason you need to take the time to kill the Blood Maiden is not only that she will give you Exquisite Blood, but more importantly, this can also provide Grim Favors for the Tree of Whispers. Prioritizing the completion of Whispers in the Helltides can provide players with more rewards than usual. This makes any Whispers in the Helltides a brilliant use of time. When you have accumulated 250 Aberrant Cinders, you can open Tortured Gifts of Mysteries in each of the 2 Helltide areas. This means that each Helltide has a total of 2 Mysteries Gifts. In addition, when you have accumulated 10 Grim Favors, you should give them to the Tree of Whispers. This way, you will get a lot of Living Steel from Mystery Chests and a lot of Malignant Hearts from Whispers. Accumulate Boss Summoning Materials Also, you can use Seething Opals so that you have more chances to get boss materials. Because each Seething Opal will make enemies drop different specific items more often. After opening Tortured Gifts of Mysteries, you can open other Chests to get more Living Steel. This way, you will accumulate a lot of Living Steel and Malignant Hearts, and when you have enough materials to summon Tormented Vashan and Grigoire multiple times, you can continue to kill them. If you want, you can even find a group for these bosses so that you can rotate. However, since you can only get the summoning materials for Tormented Duriel if you summon Tormented Vashan and Grigoire, we would recommend that you fight these bosses alone, because forming a group does not increase the amount of summoning materials you get for Duriel. Farm Tormented Duriel And Andariel In A Group Then, once you have enough boss materials, such as Mucus-Slick Eggs from Vashan and Shards of Agony from Grigoire, you can find a group for Tormented Duriel and take turns attacking him. In this case, joining a group to fight together makes sense, because Andariel and Duriel are twice as likely to drop Mythic Unique Items compared to other Tormented Endgame Bosses, and of course, the difficulty is also doubled. When you run out of summoning materials for Tormented Duriel, just restart farming in Helltides and repeat. If you continue to farm in this way, you will eventually get a lot of Mythic Unique items. This is our best route and tips for farming Mythic Uniques in Diablo 4 Vessel of Hatred. Do you have a better farming method? Or do you think there are aspects of this farming method that need improvement? Of course, you can also choose to enter the iGMeet discord, where there are often some giveaways and raffles. If you are lucky enough, you can easily get the Mythic Uniques you have been longing for here! Hurry up and join and be active!

With the launch of DLC Vessel of Hatred, the newly launched Spiritborn Class has begun to attract the attention of players, and many Builds built around Spiritborn have also begun to be used by players. As a new Class, there are many Builds available for Spiritborn, and a considerable number of them are also very powerful. Evade Spiritborn Build is a more prominent example. Even compared with other Spiritborn Builds, if the player operates Evade Spiritborn Build properly, it will enter an infinite Attack Loop. You can Boost Damage by Evading and casting Quill Volleys, abusing Storm Feathers Mechanic, to deal more Damage to Enemies to win Battles and earn more Diablo 4 Gold. Based on the power of Evade Spiritborn Build, we will introduce you to how to use it in the game. Evade Spiritborn Build Overview As one of the most powerful Builds in Diablo 4 DLC, Core Usage Mechanism of Evade Spiritborn Build includes Eagle Spirit Hall Choice on the one hand, and requires you to cast Evade as much as possible in Combat on the other hand. Under Eagle Spirit Hall Choice, every time the player’s Spiritborn Character casts Evade, it will also launch Storm Feathers at Enemy, causing Vulnerable Effect to cause huge Damage to Enemy. Evade Spiritborn Build combines Skills that reduce Cooldown of Evade with Quill Volley Skills. Based on this combination of Skills, it creates a new style that mixes Movement and Casting. This allows players who use it to deal with various Challenges except the most difficult high-Torment. Because when Attacking with Quill Volley Skills, it will effectively reduce Cooldown of Evade. So as long as you have Vigor, you almost never need to press Basic Attack Input. In addition, with the help of Vessel of Hatred’s new Runeword System, players can also Restore a large amount of Vigor every time they Evade. Besides these, players can of course explore more suitable Skills or Diablo 4 Items for Evade Spiritborn Build, but the selection of Eagle Spirit Hall, Boots that reduce Cooldown of Evade when Attacking, and related Materials that enhance the effectiveness of Vigor and Storm Feathers are indispensable for the effective use of this Build. Skills Used With Evade Spiritborn Build There is no doubt that no matter what Build, it is inseparable from the use and coordination of related Skills during use. Skills suitable for Evade Spiritborn Build are mainly the following. Thunderspike as a Basic Active Skill. It can be developed into Enhanced Thunderspike or Accelerated Thunderspike through Active Skill Nodes. Quill Volley as a Core Active Skill. It can be strengthened into Enhanced Quill Volley or Advantageous Quill Volley Vigorous through Active Skill Nodes. The relevant Passive Skill that can be matched with Build is Balanced Exertion. Defensive Skill Armored Hide. It can be developed into Enhanced Armored Hide or Reinforced Armored Hide through Active Skill Node. The relevant Passive Skills are Endurance and Perseverance. Ultimate Active Skill The Seeker can grow into Harmonious Seeker or Exalted Seeker. In fact, besides the above Skills, the most important one is the Key Passive Skill Vital Strikes. With it, Damage you cause to Vulnerable Enemies will be increased by 45%. When Vulnerable Damage is caused, you will Recover 2% of your Health and 5 points of Vitality, and Effect of Vulnerable Damage will disappear. But it doesn’t matter, because you can almost cause Vulnerable Damage every time you cast Quill Volley. Spirit Hall Choices For Evade Spiritborn Build If you choose Spiritborn as your Character’s Class, you can choose Primary and Secondary Spirit Guardians from the four Class Hall Spirits. Primary Spirit Guardians are usually more important. For Evade Spiritborn Build, we recommend Eagle as your Primary Spirit Guardian. This is because when you use any Eagle Skill, you will get a Movement Speed Bonus, and when you Dodge, you will Fire Storm Feathers, making Enemies you Hit more vulnerable. Secondary Spirit Guardians are also best paired with Eagle or Jaguar. Based on this, Eagle will increase your Critical Strike chance every time you Move a short distance, and Jaguar will allow you to Build up Ferocity Stacks, increasing your Attack Speed and helping you to Attack while Dodging. Unique Items For Evade Spiritborn Build When using a Build, some specific Diablo 4 Items can provide additional benefits to Build. In Vessel of Hatred DLC, Items that are suitable for Evade Spiritborn Build are some Unique Items. 1. Band Of First Breath This Unique Item is a Ring. It helps the player Restore Vigor when casting Evade and doubles Damage done after gaining a stack of Resolve. It also grants Armored Hide Passive. It is usually Dropped by all Enemies and Obol Vendors with a slight chance. 2. Loyalty’s Mantle Loyalty’s Mantle is a type of Helm. When the player’s Primary and Secondary Spirit Hall match, it will receive a double Bonus. And Skills of the same type will gain significant Vigor and Cooldown reduction. This Item can be Dropped by Grigoire, Galvanic Saint and Obol vendor. 3. Sepazontec This is a two-handed Staff that forces Basic Attacks to always benefit from Third Attack Bonuses. Each Third Attack Bonus will cause 3 Attacks, and each will trigger Third Attack Bonus. Players can get it from Drops from Duriel, King Of Maggots and Obol Vendor. The above is the method and precautions for using Evade Spiritborn Build in Diablo 4 DLC.
