Ready to Venture Back into the Heart of Darkness

It’s still a long, long time before Diablo 4 Season 8 arrives. There may be some official events during this period, and you can get a lot of unique items, but the drop rate of special items in this game is a bit too high to be exciting. Season 7 has been running for a long time, and most players may have reached the highest World Tier. However, Diablo 4’s mid-end game content is not as rich as Path of Exile 2. What can players do? Monsters When you create a character, the monsters in the game become an important part of the player’s entertainment. When the player defeats a monster for the first time, you will get gold, XP, and even equipment. When you reach World Tier 4, you need to defeat fierce monsters and get more gold, XP, and better equipment. It sounds like nothing has changed, but it is true. The level of the monster will rise as the player’s level rises. There is not much difference between the monsters that players hunt from low to high levels. The changes brought by World Tier 4 are as follows: Monsters will be between level 75 and 100. Some Ancestral items and Unique items will only drop at this difficulty. Legendaries, Uniques, and Mythic Uniques have a higher chance of dropping. Experience gained from defeating monsters increased by 250%. Monsters drop 20% more Diablo 4 Gold. Character resistance to all elements reduced by 50%. When you successfully reach Tier 4 difficulty, farming monsters is still your best option for leveling up. Echo Of Lilith When you reach level 90 and the world reaches Tier 4, you will unlock a quest: Capstone Dungeon: Echo of Hatred. This quest will lead you to the chapel in Nevesk. Here you can summon the most difficult boss in the entire game, Echo of Lilith. It is recommended that you challenge Echo of Lilith after reaching level 100 and completing most of the bosses challenges. Many of her attacks are deadly. If you are not prepared, a single hit from her may kill your character. Boss Ladder The best way to get gear for your character is by fighting bosses. Many core gear for your build is found in boss drops. In Diablo 4, bosses in Boss Ladder require you to collect special items to summon them. These bosses have unique loot lists, and some can only be summoned in World Tier 3 or even World Tier 4. Grigoire, The Galvanic Saint: Can only be summoned in World Tier 3 and above, requires Living Steel. Echo of Varshan: Can only be summoned in World Tier 3 and above, requires Malignant Heart. The Beast in the Ice: Can only be summoned in World Tier 4, requires Distilled Fear. Lord Zir: Can only be summoned in World Tier 4, requires Exquisite Blood. Echo of Duriel: Can only be summoned in World Tier 4, requires Mucus-Slick Egg and Shard of Agony. Andariel: Can only be summoned at World Tier 4, requires Pincushioned Doll and Sandscorched Shackles. Tormented Echoes Want to challenge yourself further? Then there are more powerful versions of these summonable bosses. They can appear as Tormented Echoes at level 200. Summoning these bosses requires the above summoning items and Stygian Stone. You can find Stygian Stone in The Pit. Since these bosses cost more to summon, they will also drop more rewards. All items you get from Tormented Echoes Boss will be item level 925. The first time you defeat Tormented Echoes Boss, it will drop a Resplendent Spark. Helltides When you reach Tier 4, Helltides will become more challenging. You will need to face a constant stream of enemies from Hell. Here is some information about Helltides: The more monsters you kill, the more dangerous the Helltides will be. You will eventually be besieged by a swarm of demons and a Hellborn. Killing Hellborn will drop Baneful Hearts. You can use them to summon Blood Maiden. Profane Mindcage Elixir can increase the level of monsters in Helltides. It can be increased to a maximum of 130. Gauntlet Gauntlet is a non-linear dungeon, where the distribution of monsters and the dungeon layout will not change during the week. You have eight minutes to complete the dungeon, and the system will give you a score based on your performance. The highest scorer will receive a Cache of Trials or Cache of Worthy at the end of the week. Players with lower scores can also receive a Cache of the Gauntlet as a reward. The Pit The Pit is one of the ultimate challenges in the endgame. You can think of The Pit as a randomized dungeon, which means that the monsters and dungeon layout are different on each floor. It consists of 150 levels, and the difficulty and rewards will vary. To unlock new levels, players must defeat the boss within 15 minutes. The longer the remaining time after killing the boss, the more levels will be unlocked. If you die in The Pit, the timer will increase by 30 seconds. Infernal Hordes This is a special survival challenge. You need to deal with waves of monsters. Finally, the boss is defeated. Each wave has a one-minute battle time. You can collect Burning Aether during the battle. Burning Aether can be used to unlock Spoils of Hell chests, which contain equipment, summoning materials, and gold. The above is about what you can do in Diablo 4 endgame. There is a lot of content to play actually. But compared with the endgame content of Path of Exile 2, the endgame content of Diablo 4 seems too loose, and I hope this will change in Season 8.

Diablo 4 Season 7 will focus on tracking down the reborn evil Mephisto. As one of the most iconic villains in Diablo series, Mephisto returns to the game world as Lord of Hatred, bringing players unprecedented challenges and adventures. However, before officially embarking on this exciting pursuit, make sure you have completed all the content in Vessel of Hatred expansion, because we will dive into its ending next. It is worth noting that Diablo Season 6 and Vessel of Hatred expansion are actually two separate but closely related content released on the same day. Their stories both involve Mephisto’s return. By participating in these activities, players will learn that Mephisto is the demonic Lord of Hatred, Diablo’s brother, and the current main villain of Diablo 4. At the end of the base game of Diablo 4, you are faced with a hard decision: what to do with Mephisto, the powerful Lord of Hatred. After a fierce battle and much deliberation, players decide that Mephisto is a greater threat to Sanctuary than Lilith, another major villain in the game. To ensure that the demon does not threaten the world again, the heroes decide to use a magic stone to permanently lock Mephisto’s soul in Vessel of Hatred. Despite the heroes’ best efforts to prevent any possibility of this happening, Mephisto manages to escape. Mephisto Possesses The Body Of Akarat After Diablo 4 DLC, Mephisto’s threat has reached an all-time high. Not only has he escaped his bonds, but he has also possessed Akarat, a figure hailed as a savior in Diablo lore, making him more dangerous than ever. Akarat himself possesses powerful supernatural powers, and now these powers are being harnessed by Mephisto, making him nearly unstoppable. Although Mephisto seems to have disappeared at the end of Vessel of Hatred, the essence of evil is immortal, and it is only a matter of time before he reappears and corrupts everything he touches. This uncertainty casts a vast shadow on Sanctuary, as no one knows where Mephisto will appear next and how he will bring disaster. Therefore, it is crucial to buy Diablo 4 Gold to better prepare yourself, whether it is to upgrade equipment or obtain rare items. Vessel of Hatred seems to be a magnificent tribute to Diablo 2. In Diablo 2, players witnessed the story of Diablo possessing a hero who defeated him in Diablo 1. Now, by letting Mephisto appear in human form, the series retells the classic Dark Wanderer angle in a new way. Chasing Mephisto and witnessing his profound impact on different regions and characters undoubtedly constitute a suspenseful and exciting adventure. As he walks the world as Akarat and sows the seeds of hatred, this provides the development team with a great opportunity to carefully weave a series of gripping story chapters through the second major expansion in 2025. Starting with Season 7, which kicks off immediately, players will first witness Akarat spreading blessings while hiding the secret curse of hatred spread by Mephisto. This season will serve as a fascinating starting point to gradually uncover the tip of the iceberg of Mephisto’s true intentions. Road To Hatred To achieve this goal, the development team must design seasonal content beyond the traditional framework of introducing new Helltide gimmicks or single dungeon modes. Instead, it should be deeply integrated into the storytelling, just like Season 5 did by introducing new and coherent quest lines. In fact, looking back at Realmwalker event, it can be found that although it is very interesting in itself, if a large expansion like Vessel of Hatred does not accompany it, Season 6 will seem a little thin compared to previous seasons. Future seasonal updates should learn from and build on the revelation of Lilith’s followers’ actions after her defeat in Season 5 to build a more three-dimensional background story for the game. The strategy adopted by the development team in Season 5 to release new quests in both seasonal and Eternal Realms was indeed a significant move, ensuring that all players can enjoy these fascinating contents, rather than just some new NPCs as background provides for the same quests. For Season 7 and beyond, the player community expects to see more similar in-depth content, especially around Mephisto and his evil plan. Through the carefully designed quest chain, players can not only experience exciting battles in the process of tracking down this ultimate villain, but also deeply feel the progress of the story. As for endgame content, past works in Diablo series such as Kurast Undercity, Realmwalkers, Infernal Hordes, Pit, and Dark Citadel have demonstrated its profound skills in building complex and changing game environments and enemy designs. Players are full of expectations for how Season 7 will adjust and incorporate these classic elements, and hope to see that the developers can bring refreshing creativity and challenges while retaining the original essence.

Diablo 4 Vessel of Hatred expansion has introduced a fresh new Spiritborn class as well as several new Uniques, including Rakanoth’s Wake and Harmony Of Ebewaka specialized for Spiritborn. This article focuses on these two new Diablo 4 Items. Especially for those players who have chosen Spiritborn as their class, please keep reading. How To Get Rakanoth’s Wake Unique Boots? Rakanoth’s Wake is characterized by appearing in most of Spiritborn’s best late game builds. It rarely appears randomly in Overworld. Instead, players are required to head into a specific endgame activity, completing requested tasks and leveling to required rank to get this Unique boots as a drop in the game. To increase the chance of a drop, it is recommended to use items such as Seething Opals of Equipment. As a set of unique boots offered to Spiritborn, this means that players have a chance to get this item when their Spiritborn reaches level 40. Moreover, if you are satisfied the conditions lie below, this Unique item shares much more opportunity to be generated. Torment 1 or higher difficulties. The class being played is max level (60). A Seething Opal of Equipment is active. Moreover, most of Unique items can be farmed from one of Lair Bosses or activities in the endgame. And running Infernal Hordes serves as the best farming activity for Rakanoth’s Wake. To unlock Infernal Horde, you are required to complete the questline of “The Eyes of the Enemy” at World Tier 3: Nightmare difficulty. And then, you are given an Infernal Compass, which is used to open the portal to Infernal Horde. Which Builds Use Rakanoth’s Wake? Rakanoth’s Wake serves as a powerful boost for most of the boost, especially for those players who have used Spiritborn’s Brillance passive. But more than that, it also can be applied to those builds that depend on non-physical damage, such as Poison builds. Here lies the conclusion of those popular builds which use Rakanoth’s Wake: Evade Eagle Build Quill Volley Eagle Build Soar Gorilla Build Stinger Centipede Build Touch of Death Centipede Build All Rakanoth’s Wake Affixes + [10–23.5%] Movement Speed + [1–8.8%] Cooldown Reduction + [21 - 35%] Resistance to all Elements + [47–75] Non-physical Damage When performing a skill features a cooldown, you explode and cause Fire Damage. How To Get Harmony Of Ebewaka Helm? Similar to Rakanoth’s Wake Boots, Harmony Of Ebewaka Helm is also required to hit late-game power spikes of Spiritborn, so it is best to farm it in the first place. As a Unique Helm, Harmony of Ebewaka serves as a drop from any monster in higher difficulties (Torment 1+), which means that a tough fight will repeatedly launch between you and Beast in the Ice. Whether Tormented or Standard versions, Harmony of Ebewaka can drop as a reward. But considering the fact that the cost to summon Beast in the Ice in Standard version is one-third of the cost in its Tormented variation, it is reasonable to deal with the boss in standard version. Although Harmony of Ebewaka can drop as a reward in the game, the chance is low, and it is far less efficient than farming directly. Alternatively, you can actively participate in Helltide Events that are active on the map, which will show up every hour and farm as many Cinders as possible that are required to open chests. If you are to believe in your good luck, then try it at Purveyor of Curiosity. However, the rarity of equipment obtained through this channel is random, ranging from Magic to Mythic Unique items. Therefore, there is a certain risk, making this transaction not so cost-effective. Harmony Of Ebewaka Affixes And Effects Some useful stats like damage reduction and Velocity ranks upgrade always remain huge attraction among players, but the real shining point of Harmony Of Ebewaka offers comes to all abilities an additional spirit-type tag rewards. And the specific tag information is based on your second Spirit Hall bonus. [+26] to all Stats [+50.7%] Damage [19.5%] Damage Reduction [17.6%] Critical Strike Chance Based on your final Secondary Spirit Hall choice, the skills come to additional Jaguar, Gorilla, Centipede, or Eagle skills. All of your skills deal [+30%] damage per Spirit Type they have. Which Builds Use Harmony Of Becky? Although this brand new Harmony of Ebewaka Unique is exclusive to Spiritborn class, it appears in mountains of popular build, such as Centipede Touch of Death Spiritborn Quill Volley Eagle Spiritborn Crushing Hand Gorilla Spiritborn Thrash Jaguar Spiritborn Also Read: Long-Term Diablo 4 Promotions & Giveaways - Real And Valid The above is an introduction to the newly introduced Uniques applicable to Spiritborn class - Rakanoth’s Wake Boot And Harmony Of Ebewaka Helm.

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.

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).
