Hi fellow players! Here is another Diablo 4 guide. As our journey into Season 4 begins, today we're going to focus on the bosses as there are some big changes happening. We now have access to a greater and more consistent supply of new items and materials. There's a lot to cover and a lot of important information to share, so let's get right into it!
Diablo 4 Season 4 introduces a new boss, Uber Duriel, who brings new drops, including Uber Uniques, at a higher drop rate. Additionally, there are new Tormented versions of bosses, which are essentially Level 200 bosses with even better drops.
Then, you'll also receive 1 Resplendent Spark the first time you kill any of these Level 200 bosses. Another Spark is obtained by completing the new quest line in Season 4, and a third one is supposed to come from Uber Lilith.
However, the third spark has either been removed or it's bugged. Regardless, we should be able to get 3 Resplendent Sparks by playing the game and completing challenges, with the hope of securing that last Spark when we encounter an Uber boss if needed.
The new Tormented versions are also summoned in the same way. However, there's now a new tab to swap between the normal version and the Tormented version. The Tormented versions require significantly more materials and an additional new material. Despite the higher cost, they are worth it because of the greater rewards.
In any case, you can obtain summoning materials from more sources now. They can drop in the new Helltide Reborn as random or relatively consistent bonuses. Since we've been leveling hard in the new Helltide, you’ll likely find you’ve got more than usual, with some ready to go.
Let’s run down these Uber bosses, their new loot pools, where to summon them, and what you actually need to summon them with.
First up, we have Andariel, the new boss, located in the Hanged Man's Hall, adjacent to the Waypoint or Zarbinzet town. Andariel is comparable in worth to Duriel and requires World Tier 4 to fight. Her Echo is Level 100, and her drops mirror those of Duriel, making her equally valuable for Uber Unique farming.
The Andariel requires 2 new summoning materials: Sandscorched Shackles dropped by the Lord Zir, and Pincushioned Dolls dropped by the Beast in the Ice. The Tormented versions of Duriel and Andariel offer higher Uber Unique drop chances compared to their normal Echo versions, making it highly advantageous to summon them.
While Andariel is relatively easy to defeat in her normal state, the Tormented version poses a greater challenge, utilizing Fire, Lightning, Poison, and Shadow damage. She spawns additional enemies and employs various tactics, such as laser beams and missile attacks.
Moving on, let's quickly discuss the materials needed to summon the next boss , Grigoire, which is located on the west side of the maps, just below Ked Bardu. You'll find him in the Hall of the Penitent in World Tier 4.
To summon him, you'll require 5 Living Steel, obtainable from random drops in the Helltide, primarily from the Steel Chest opened for 235 cinders. With greater numbers now dropping overall, acquiring Living Steel is easier than before. Grigoire is a Lightning type, so exercise caution. It's worth noting that Grigoire drops the shards necessary for the Duriel summons.
Now, let's shift our focus to Duriel. Like Andariel, Duriel offers the same drops and requires World Tier 4 at Level 100. He stands as your prime destination for acquiring Uber Uniques outside of Andariel. To locate Duriel, head to the southwest point of the map near Gea Kul, where you'll find him in the Gaping Crevasse.
For 1 Duriel summon, you'll need 2 Shards of Agony from Grigoire and 2 Mucus-Slick Egg from Vashan, as usual. Duriel remains unchanged, so prioritize maximum poison resistance and beware of Burrows on the ground. While Andariel will be a frequent target in Season 4, aim to face her in the Tormented version.
Moving on, let's discuss Vashan, located at the Tree of Whispers. Summoning Vashan is a bit more complicated. You'll need one of each body part: the Gurgling Head, Malignant Heart, Blackened Femur and Trembling Hand. If you're missing any parts, you can visit any Alchemist to trade or convert hearts directly into the needed parts.
Alternatively, you can find these parts from the Grotesque Debtors around the world, after defeating World Bosses, or by handling Whispers. Vashan is a Shadow-based enemy, and here is his loot pool again. Additionally, unique Malignant Ring powers are also dropped here. Vashan also drops the Mucus-Slick Eggs needed for the Duriel summons.
Now, let's discuss Lord Zir, who can be found in the Darkened Way, just southeast of Kyovashad. To summon Lord Zir, you'll need 9 Exquisite Blood as usual, which you can obtain from killing World Bosses and completing Legion events.
Additionally, they now drop from Blood Maidens in Helltide Reborn, and you may also find them randomly in Helltide events. Lord Zir is a shadow-based enemy, so make sure to bring resistance against shadow attacks. Notably, Lord Zir now drops the shackles required to summon Andariel as well.
Lastly, let's discuss the Beast in the Ice. To summon this boss, you'll need to visit an Occultist. Unlike other bosses where you go to a specific location, summoning this Unique boss involves crafting sigils. Under the Ancestral tab, you'll find 2 types: the normal version and the Tormented version. Both require Distilled Fear and Sigil Powder. Crafting the sigil, activating it, and venturing into the dungeon to confront the boss is the process.
Distilled Fear is now quite common, obtained from completing Nightmare Dungeons from Level 90+ dungeons, where you'll receive 3. The higher the tier of the dungeon, the greater the chance of obtaining them. Additionally, they can be acquired from World Bosses and even in the Helltide. However, be prepared as the Beast in the Ice is a cold element enemy.
Finally, let's discuss the Pinnacle boss - Uber Lilith. It's worth noting that she should be tackled when you're fully prepared because on your initial encounter, she'll drop a Resplendent Spark, adding a valuable item to your inventory.
In conclusion, prioritize hunting the echo versions of bosses to obtain unique items and relevant gear. Ensure that you defeat each Tormented version at least once to craft your first Uber Unique. Additionally, once you've strengthened your character sufficiently, focus on farming the Tormented versions over regular echoes as they offer better drop rates, particularly for Andariel and Duriel.
The much-anticipated Diablo 4 Season 4 is finally here! Unlike before, Season 4 has no obvious season theme and is only titled Loot Reborn. Obviously, the main focus of this season should be the loot system.
However, with the endgame difficulty ramping up significantly this season, preparing a great endgame build is a smart choice if you want to be rewarded with exciting Diablo 4 items. In this guide, we are going to talk about the 5 best starting builds from different classes in Season 4 to help you get a better start in the game.
We’ll list the best builds for Season 4, starting with Sorcerer build. Based on what we saw on PTR, this class feels great in Loot Reborn for a few reasons.
First, in Season 4, there are a lot of variations on Sorcerer’s best builds, making it one of the most versatile classes at least at the start of the season. Among the many Sorcerer builds, the performance of Frozen Orb Sorcerer deserves our most attention.
Frozen Orb Sorcerer is a nod to old-school Diablo fans, as Frozen Orb spell was well-known as far back as Diablo 2, and it’s taken on an extra edge in Diablo 4 Loot Reborn.
The advantage of this build is the essentially infinite spamming of Frozen Orb spell, which is very effective in clearing out large numbers of mobs, Nightmare Dungeons, Helltide Events, and other events in Diablo 4.
In addition to this, the new unique amulet, Fractured Winterglass is added, and Frozen Orb spell gains a Conjuration charge, which in turn has a high chance of creating another Frozen Orb, creating a permanent mechanic.
The disadvantages of this build are also obvious. Not only is it highly reliant on mana reserves, but it’s not the most effective at single target damage. But the advantages still cannot be concealed.
Speaking of the most effective Druid build in Diablo 4 Season 4, then it has to be Hurricane Druid. This build tears apart Pits and Bosses, but relies heavily on Tempering.
The essence of this build is stacking critical damage from Clarity and overpowers through Provocation. Once both passive abilities are maxed out, you can use your primary killing tool, Hurricane ability, to deal millions of damage.
Despite the massive damage dealt, Hurricane Druid build still requires a fairly strict sequence of actions. You can still cast Hurricane left and right, but without the extra critical damage from Clarity ability and the overpower damage from Provocation, you won’t hit max damage.

When it comes to the best builds of Barbarian, I can only say one thing, and that’s Bash.
Bash Barbarian in Diablo 4 Season 4 looks like the build you want to play. The late game Bash ability allows you to deal significant area damage and stun enemies.
Combine this with Aspect of Adaptability and Aspect of the Moonrise to get more damage from the basic skills and destroy anything alive with Vampiric Bloodrage.
However, the major drawback of this build also emerges here. Aspect of Adaptability and Aspect of the Moonrise cannot be obtained during the upgrade phase, so this build, unlike Frozen Orb Sorcerer, cannot be used throughout the game.
Regarding Necromancer, I don’t even need to mention it. Almost every player knows what the best build of this class is, and that’s Minions Necromancer. It will transform into a summoner, leading hordes of undead to sweep through everything in its path. But this may not be a bad thing for Season 4.
Overall, Minions Necromancer is definitely the simplest build that exists in Loot Reborn. It’s not like Druid needs to follow a rotation, or Barbarian only expands late in the game. Its essence is to simply spam Army of the Dead to everything around it.
As a Minions Necromancer, all you need to do is collect Blood Orbs, which appear after using your Corpse Tendrils ability. These charge up your ultimate ability, Army of the Dead, which resurrects your minions and destroys everything around you as you collect Blood Orbs. That’s the essence of Necromancer.
Finally arriving at the last of our list of the best endgame builds for Diablo 4 Season 4. If you’ve always wanted to try a ranged Rogue, now is the perfect time for you to start it, as this build allows you to effectively take out hordes of enemies from a distance, and that’s Rapid Fire Rogue.
The core of this build is Rapid Fire ability, which allows you to use a bow as your primary weapon.
It is worth noting that in Season 4, a new Rogue Unique Ring, Scoundrel’s Kiss, appeared. It has Rapid Fire effect built in, turning this skill into a true grenade launcher, dealing massive damage to all enemies within a large radius.
This build is great for leveling, boss fights, and clearing Pit of Artificers. However, as is often the case with this class, Rapid Fire Rogue is extremely fragile. So in this build, you’re sacrificing potentially higher DPS for survivability and upgrading abilities like Smoke Grenade.
That’s it for us to share our list of the best endgame builds for Diablo 4 Season 4. Try them and you will be able to easily conquer the endgame after entering the world of Sanctuary! Try it now! See you next time!
The exciting Diablo 4 Season 4 Loot Reborn is finally here! In the new season, a new Uber Boss joins the endgame, and this is Andariel. She is similar to her brother boss Duriel: she is level 100, only available in Torment World Tier, and has the exact same loot table.
If you’re tired of farming Duriel repeatedly, then you can try summoning Andariel and get new Uber Uniques. But summoning Andariel requires different Diablo 4 items, thus meaning you have to fight a different boss. So, below we will talk about how to get the required materials and summon Andariel in Season 4.
In order to summon Andariel, we need to raise two endgame bosses to obtain Pincushioned Doll from Beast of Ice and Sandscorched Shackles from Lord Zir.
Beast of Ice can be farmed primarily by completing Nightmare Dungeons. You can obtain Distilled Fear by completing Nightmare Dungeons at tier 30 and above in Torment World Tier. Since the material drops randomly upon completion, you may not always get it. The good news, though, is that playing higher-level Nightmare Dungeons has a chance to reward you with additional Distilled Fear.
Once you get 9 of them, go to Occultist to craft Nightmare Sigils: Glacial Fissure. Glacial Fissure works just like Nightmare Dungeon. You activate it like Nightmare Dungeon and select it on the map to instantly teleport there.
Unlike other endgame bosses, you need to go through a fairly long dungeon to reach the boss area. Also, different from other endgame bosses, there will be no summoning altar here. The battle with Beast of Ice will begin as soon as you enter the boss arena. Defeating Beast of Ice will drop Pincushioned Doll, one of the two items required to summon Andariel.
Another summoning item comes from defeating Lord Zir. To summon Lord Zir, you need 9 Exquisite Blood. Exquisite Blood can be obtained by completing World Bosses or Legion Events. World Bosses grant 3 Exquisite Blood every 3 hours and 30 minutes, and Legion Events grant 1 Exquisite Blood every 25 minutes.
In addition, in Season 4, you can also get a large amount of Exquisite Blood through Helltides, completing events, and random drops from general elites.
Like Duriel, Lord Zir Boss is only available in World Tier 4. Fortunately, World Bosses now appear every three hours instead of six, so they’re easier to farm.
Once you have enough Exquisite Blood, head to Darkened Way. After that you will see another door in Ancient’s Seat. Deposit your Exquisite Blood on the summoning altar to generate Lord Zir. Defeating Lord Zir will drop Sandscorched Shackles, the second item required to summon Andariel.
Now we are ready to summon Andariel. We need to take all the summoning materials we obtained to the level 100 dungeon Hanged Man’s Hall and summon Andariel. You can find the entrance to this dungeon east of Tarsarak, the major city in the Kehjistan region.
Like all other boss dungeons in the game, the lobby will have a unique icon. As you scroll through the area, look for skulls with horns on the gate. If you’ve never completed the dungeon, they’re hard to miss and have an orange dot.
Once you enter Hanged Man’s Hall, you must reach the altar. To start the battle, place summon items from Lord Zir and Beast of Ice into Altar of Anguish. Andariel consumes 2 Pincushioned Dolls and Sandscorched Shackles each time it is run.
Keep in mind that Andariel’s summoning materials will only be used once, so your best bet is to run a boss grind squad to save time. Otherwise, you have to keep grinding away previous bosses on the boss ladder to get more materials.
The combat was really simple during PTR, so I didn’t see much of Andariel boss fight. Although Uber Andariel is a tough boss, with the right strategy, you can defeat Andariel. So use your abilities, predict her moves, and keep moving, and you’ll easily have the upper hand and enjoy those sweet loot drops! Regardless, you can definitely defeat her in the Hanged Man’s Hall.
You can also collect Stygian Stones from Pit of the Artificers if you want a higher difficulty challenge. These can be combined with standard Andariel summoning items to obtain her level 200 Tormented Echo variant.
Higher levels mean more rewards for each victory. More importantly, for Duriel and his sister, it means a better chance of getting Uber Unique items. Once you’ve conquered this season’s Pit of the Artificers, the uber grind will probably take up the rest of your endgame grinding time.
That’s everything we need to know about summoning this new endgame boss in Diablo 4 Season 4. With the tips and tricks mentioned above, I believe you are ready to tackle this boss fight. With perseverance and skill, you can conquer Uber Andariel and become invincible in Season 4!
