We’re going to be taking a look at the Rend Barbarian, which is a beginner Barbarian Build that focuses on the use of the Rend ability to set bleeding and finish things off with a Death Blow ability.
Let’s get into the abilities. The first one I want to take a look at here is Death Blow.
Death Blow does a ton of damage to like a cone in front of you and if it kills a target, then it instantly refreshes its cooldown. It normally has like a 15 second cooldown, so you definitely want to make sure that you’re killing targets with us. Otherwise, you’re going to have to wait in order to use this.
What’s great about this is you can lead off with this sometimes when there are a lot of weak enemies in order to build up Fury easily. And then, you can use Rend off that Fury that you gain and you don’t have to sit there and use Frenzy to build it up or use your basic attacks. So, just use Death Blow to kill enemies to gain Fury and then attack.
Now, sometimes it doesn’t always go according to plan or maybe there are no squishy targets for you, so you’ll have to use Frenzy first in order to build up some Fury and then you can use Rend and then as enemies get weakened, you can finish them off with Death Blow and then sort of starts a chain reaction.
The idea here is that you use Death Blow to kill a weak enemy. Then, it hits multiple enemies if you’re positioned correctly and that is then weakened that you can then finish off with another Death Blow. Hopefully hitting more enemies and then those enemies are weakened and then you start this chain reaction of Death Blows. And then, if there’s nothing that you can death blow easily, you use Rend to soften them up and just keep chaining this process.
Next, let’s talk about Rend. This does an AOE in front of you that does a little of physical damage and then it does a bunch of bleeding over time.
The reason bleeding is important here is that by using the Hamstring passive, you can actually slow the targets that you’re hitting with this. But what’s more important is that is that you can get damage to slowed enemies on your gear, increasing the damage that you do and allowing your Death Blow to deal more damage.
So, as I just mentioned, the strategy is to kind of alternate back and forth between Rend and Death Blow. While you go in there, you hit with Rend, everything takes some damage starts bleeding.
And when it gets close to death, you run in with Death Blow, finish it off, hopefully hit some other targets, finish them off, kind of repeating this alternating between these as necessary.
And it’s kind of hit-and-run tactic. Sometimes you’re not always just hanging in there like you would with the Whirlwind build. You’re running in hitting backing off waiting for the bleed to do more damage or hitting with Rend waiting for the bleed to do more damage backing off and then hitting with death flow again and again.
Another great thing here too is that because we’re using Furious Rend, the morph of Rend. We’re gaining Fury each time we hit enemies with Ren as well.
So, between Death Blow gaining it when you kill an enemy and Furious Rend giving you Fury, you never have Fury problems. You shouldn’t have to basic attack very often with this build.
Next, let’s talk about Frenzy, when you use Frenzy and why we have this spell.
Obviously, we need a basic attack here because sometimes you don’t have resources Etc, things don’t go to a party plan we need that and Frenzy just gets faster and faster as you attack being able to attack very quickly.
So, when you’re using it, you want to use it for longer than three swings. Ideally, that’s the maximum. And Frenzy is really good when you muff up Death Blow and you need to get more Fury somehow or when you’re facing like a single difficult target. Because you can’t death blow it and rend. Maybe you don’t have enough Fury to kill it with rats, so when you’re sitting there in between Rends, you’re going to be wailing on it with Fury.
And because we’re using the Combat Frenzy, morph of this, we’re having good damage reduction while we’re doing this as long as it’s kind of like face tank bosses.
So, when you’re sitting there fighting those bosses, you’re going to use Combat Frenzy and you’re going to keep using it. And then, when Rend comes up, you’re going to hit Rend every time Rend cools down. You’re going to hit it and Death Blow if you can work in a Death Blow here and there to get some increased damage even though it’ll go back on cooldown.
You should use it unless you know that you’re going to be within that kind of Striking Distance to finish the thing off. You want to use Death Blows on bosses as soon as they’re up in order to just get as much damage on a boss as possible.
Pressure Point here gives us 30% chance to make enemies vulnerable when we hit them with a core skill, which is Rend. So, Rend has a chance to make enemies vulnerable, which is great because that’ll increase the damage we do to them.
So, if you’re sitting there waiting on a boss, hit him with Rend, make him vulnerable, keep attacking, and then you know hit him with Rend again, make them vulnerable sometimes. It’s a really good strategy and you definitely want to hit with that Death Blow if you can while that vulnerable is up in order to get even more damage on the boss.
We also have Leap here. I really only have one point in Leap and that’s just for maneuverability. Sometimes you get knocked away from a boss and allow you to get back to him or sometimes you’re in a really bad spot, like you’re about to get frozen by some stuff or you’re trapped somewhere and you need to get out.
Leap is just a great way. It’s good for mobility to get you out of a bad situation or maybe you want to Leap into a bunch of enemies and hit with Rend.
Beyond this, we have Challenging Shout and the reason for this is because it increases your damage reduction by 40 for almost 10 seconds with a 25 second cooldown.
This is great for those scenarios where you’re fighting a lot of the enemies that can protect you and save you but also when you’re fighting like a single boss being able to reduce the damage this boss does too. While you’re just sitting there face tanking it with Combat Frenzy can be a lifesaver, even 10 out of every 25 seconds reducing the damage that you take is really strong.
Lastly, we have Iron Skin here.
This is the sort of flex spot you can put whatever you want in here, if you want another offensive ability you can or a different defensive ability or shout or whatever you want, an ultimate can go here.
But I like Iron Skin here because it’s another defensive ability that allows you to create a barrier for 50% of your missing HP. So, when your HP starts getting down at the bottom you’re out of potions or maybe you just want to conserve potions, you can pop Iron Skin.
And if you have the Tactical Iron Skin morph, this is going to heal you back up while that barrier remains, so you can actually use it kind of like a potion every 15 seconds or so to heal yourself. And between that and Challenging Shout, you’re not going to die very easily.
And you have tons of DPS with Rend and Death Blow, so you don’t really need much more. But this will allow you to survive in scenarios where maybe you wouldn’t.
One really good legendary aspect for this build is the Aspect of Anemia. This allows you for a chance to stun enemies when you hit them with direct damage.
If they are bleeding, which happens quite frequently, remember that Rend does direct damage as well as bleeding damage, so if you hit a bunch of enemies with Frenzy and then hit him at Rend again even if you don’t use Death Blow. You can stun them and that’ll allow you to get an easy Death Blow or at least back away while they’re stunned to delete it.
Also, remember that aspects gain double the bonus if they are on two-handed weapons versus one-handed weapons or armor, so you’re going to want to try and put this on your two-handed blade if possible. That’s what you use for this skill when you use it. So, try and find that on a 200 blade or make sure that you go to the Occultist and slot it on there in order to get even more chance to stunt enemies.
A strong build is actually inseparable from the support of a large number of Diablo 4 Gold. Therefore, when you make this build, you must prepare a lot of gold in advance. In this way, it will be more convenient for you to upgrade your skills.
Although you may be a casual Diablo 4 player who doesn’t necessarily have to complete all battles and objectives, but just wants to wander and explore freely on the world map, to be honest, even so, you must ensure that your character level is maintained at a strong enough level, otherwise you may be killed by random enemies while enjoying the scenery. And if you want to be a real warrior, you more should complete the upgrade work as soon as the new season starts!
As time goes by, you are getting closer and closer to Season 8. In order to ensure that you can start your upgrade work as soon as you enter the season, you need to sort out a Season 8 upgrade plan based on the 2.2.0 PTR and all relevant information. Fortunately, we will save you time and bring you such a guide directly!
In this season, the demon Belial, who occupies a place in the entire Diablo series story, will return to the game as the ultimate boss (he last appeared in Diablo 3). Therefore, although the PTR did not make any announcements about the new story, it is foreseeable that the new main storyline of the game will revolve around him after Season 8 is officially launched.
According to the practice of Diablo 4, when you advance the main storyline, you will also encounter some minor battles related to the storyline. They are usually not very difficult, but they will provide XP, Diablo 4 Gold and some primary items as rewards, which should not be missed.
There are many types of dungeons in Diablo 4, but they can be divided into two categories: permanent and seasonal. Usually, the unlocking method and loot of seasonal dungeons are determined according to the content of the new season. For example, Rootholds dungeon in Season 7 will provide Sigils from Silent chests and Whispers caches as one reward.
According to the known information, Season 8 does not seem to add seasonal dungeons, but it is not ruled out that there may be new changes after the official launch. If the exclusive dungeon of Season 8 really appears at that time, or Rootholds dungeon continues in a new form, you can definitely gain a lot of XP by cultivating this part of the dungeon.
In addition, permanent dungeons include campaign dungeons, quest dungeons, nightmare dungeons, and The Pit Of Artificers, which has a lot of randomness in its built-in content. Their farming methods will not change much because of the change of seasons. You only need to follow previous experience or relevant guides to complete them.
It should be reminded that some dungeons can be farmed repeatedly by resetting. Although the process is definitely boring, it is definitely the easiest and most effective way to quickly accumulate XP and gold in the early stages of the game.
In Diablo 4, whether it is a boss battle or other tasks, there are different difficulty levels, such as Torment difficulty 1-4. The higher the difficulty, the more XP and other rewards you will get in the end. However, this approach must be based on the fact that your character is strong enough. If you blindly challenge high difficulty, first, it is likely to cause the death of the character, causing irreparable losses; second, you may win by luck, but it takes too much time. In the same length of time, you may even complete many simple battles to earn more XP. So you must ponder it.
As the seasonal power of Season 8, the combat gain brought by boss power should provide a lot of help for your new season XP farming work. After obtaining a part of the boss power, you can choose the most suitable main power and 3 modifier powers to equip according to your class skills or build to improve your combat and XP acquisition efficiency. In fact, in the process of killing bosses to obtain boss power, this form of combat will also provide you with XP as one of the rewards, so it can be said to kill two birds with one stone.
This is a seasonal event in Season 8. The background story is that the ultimate boss Belial brought his minions into the game and started to do evil. What you have to do is to kill these 10 Apparition bosses and the last Belial’s lesser form.
Killing these bosses can not only get XP required for upgrading, but also the magic level boss power they carry, which will be useful for you to complete the next task. And the reward box obtained after killing Belial’s lesser form is expected to contain Obol, which can be used to upgrade equipment.
When each new season of Diablo 4 starts, the game will launch three exclusive reward systems namely battle pass, season journey, and season blessings. When you start playing Season 8, they will operate in different ways to ensure that you can get corresponding rewards for completing each part of the corresponding tasks, including XP.
Among them, the battle pass includes free, premium and accelerated. The specific rewards are different, but basically they are gradually unlocked as the game progresses; the season journey will set some corresponding tasks according to the main storyline of the current Season 8, which you can complete while using the first XP acquisition method we introduced; and season blessings is a binding gain exclusive to the characters in Diablo 4 seasonal realm, which will focus more on improving your quality of life, such as allowing you to get more XP by farming dungeons!
The above are some methods we brought to you this time to earn XP in Diablo 4 Season 8 to upgrade as soon as possible. I hope it can help you!
Usually, whether you judge by your own experience or read some Diablo 4 game guides in advance, you will know that it is better to complete some season-limited content first, because they are more fresh and may be more helpful for you to complete the season goals.
But it must be said that the fixed Diablo 4 mechanisms that have been retained since their appearance should not be ignored. Compared with seasonal content, both the challenge difficulty and the drop probability of the final Diablo 4 Gold reward will be more stable in the permanent mechanism, and your farming of different resources will be more guaranteed by them.
According to the content shown in the previous 2.2.0 PTR, it is expected that you will be able to earn gold or gear in Season 8 by equipping boss powers and exploring Apparition Incursions events, but at the same time, don’t forget to divide your energy to farm nightmare dungeons and The Pit of Artificers we are going to introduce to you this time.
The Pit of Artificers, sometimes referred to as The Pit, debuted in Season 4 in April 2024 as an endgame dungeon. Unlike regular dungeons, The Pit has a lot of random changes inside it, resulting in different monsters and different dungeon layouts each time you run it.
The Pit has 150 unlockable levels, with higher levels offering more challenging and, of course, more rewarding levels. To complete a level, you must kill enough monsters and the level’s summoned boss before the 15-minute timer expires. If you’ve played Diablo 3 before, you will find The Pit works very similarly to Greater Rifts in Diablo 3.
After killing enough normal monsters to fill up the progress bar, a boss portal will spawn on you to summon the boss and start the final boss fight. It is worth noting that in addition to avoiding general attacks from bosses, you should also pay attention to attacks from minions that bosses may bring, as these attacks can sometimes be fatal.
First of all, you can only unlock and enter The Pit by reaching level 60 as quickly as possible by earning enough XP in the early game. Once you meet this level requirement, go to Cerrigar in Scosglen and interact with the obelisk here, while consuming 3 Artificer’s Stones to start your first trip to The Pit - Artificer’s Stones are special items that can be obtained by completing any endgame event, such as Whispers, Helltide, or Nightmare dungeons.
It is worth noting that unlocked The Pit levels can even be shared between different characters as long as your Diablo 4 characters are in the same realm and game mode. As for how many levels you can unlock at one time, it depends on the remaining time at the end of the current level run:
Sometimes you may be too confident in your character’s strength and challenge a level of The Pit that is beyond your ability, resulting in your character’s unfortunate death. If this really happens to you, the current timer will be increased by 30 seconds, and the second death will increase by 60 seconds. From the third time onwards, each death will increase by 90 seconds. If you enter The Pit as a group, this penalty will even affect the entire group, so please proceed with caution.
Of course, if you successfully complete the challenge, The Pit brings great rewards. In addition to the fixed gold, there may also be Legendaries, Uniques, Obols, and most importantly, Paragon glyphs. This item can be plugged into a special slot node on Paragon board to provide buffs to your Diablo 4 battles, and as long as you complete one tier of The Pit within the time limit, you will get 3 chances to upgrade Paragon glyph, and even a fourth upgrade opportunity if you can ensure that you can complete the run without dying.
Generally speaking, dungeons that are permanent in the game like The Pit will not receive any major changes due to the arrival of the new season, at least that’s what Season 8 looks like according to the PTR, so just grasp the information we provide for you to unlock and farm it smoothly. What really need to remind you is that the boss powers that will be available in Season 8 should be a great help in completing The Pit.
First, when you get the easier-to-obtain magic boss powers in the early stage, they should help you complete the low-level The Pit, and then when you get glyph upgrades through The Pit, you can further expand the role of the existing boss powers, to obtain rare or even legendary boss powers by defeating more difficult bosses!
In short, we provide you with this guide not only to help your D4S8 experience, but also to remind you not to just focus on playing seasonal content and ignore the permanent dungeons! Because old friends are always more trustworthy!
As early as the end of February this year, Diablo 4 began to reveal the news that Season 7 would be extended and Season 8 would be postponed. At that time, you might think that this was because Season 7 would bring more new events, or that Season 8 was particularly worth looking forward to, but when the time came to the beginning of April now, you will find that the reason seems to differ from what you think.
At present, it is basically certain that Season 8 will be launched on April 29, nearly half a month later than the original mid-April, and in the next less than a month, Season 7 should not release any new major events. Therefore, you will find that except for the previous March Of The Goblins, Season 7 does not provide any good gameplay outside of seasonal content.
Although according to the 2.2.0 PTR, the main seasonal mechanism of Season 8, Boss Power, performs well and is innovative in design, it does not seem so complicated that require more development time. And when you are waiting for Diablo 4 Season 8 to be released, you’ll find that some of Diablo 4’s competitors will be releasing various updates in the first half of April! Below, we will analyze the updates of these games and the performance of Diablo 4 Season 8 for you.
When Season 7 was launched, the witchcraft power attracted a lot of attention - I have to say that although you may often complain about some problems of Diablo 4 with your friends, it always grabs your attention when a new season is released. Season 8 is no exception. The new boss power designed based on the villain is indeed very innovative and may even redefine the way you farm Diablo 4 Gold.
More importantly, Season 8 builds on the boss power and brings back Belial, who appeared in Diablo 3, as the ultimate boss of the season. It also adds seasonal events: Apparition Incursions and a new lair boss mechanism, as well as new unique items for different classes.
To be honest, there are only 12 months in a year, and most MMORPGs need to release several updates in these 12 months, so it is not surprising that they collide. The main opponents of Diablo 4 Season 8 are expected to be Path of Exile 2 and Last Epoch.
Since its early access launch in December last year, the popularity of Path of Exile 2 has been rising, and the patch 0.2.0 Dawn of the Hunt, which will be launched on April 4, will bring many new content covering all aspects of the game, such as new classes, endgame content, and new items.
It can be predicted that if Dawn of the Hunt receives good feedback, Path of Exile 2 is likely to launch a formal version in a few months. As one of the old rivals of POE series, Diablo 4 is often compared with it, so it is normal to want to avoid its edge.
Last Epoch is another popular MMORPG with a time travel theme and loot-based combat. Although it was only released last February and is not as mature as POE 2 or Diablo 4, it still has a unique charm and a group of loyal fans.
Last Epoch originally planned to release Season 2 on April 2, but in the end it also took into account the impact of POE 2 Dawn of the Hunt, so the release date was finally postponed to April 17. The season is called Tombs of the Erased and will not only introduce the new faction Woven and some new endgame content, but also a comprehensive overhaul of Sentinel class.
Although it is common for updates from different games to “collide”, it is still surprising that three major ARPGs will release major updates within a few weeks. For you as a player, this is actually quite good, so your April will be full of freshness, with almost endless new content to play; but from the developer’s point of view, it is not necessarily a good thing, because this will undoubtedly divert the player’s group. After all, your energy is limited, and it is impossible to always play three ARPGs at the same time.
Faced with this situation, Diablo 4 Season 8 wants to stand out and avoid player loss as much as possible, and the pressure on it will be greater. At least according to various performances, the new content of POE 2 and Last Epoch is very attractive. If Diablo 4 Season 8 is launched as scheduled, this competition will become more intense because the time is further shortened.
It is definitely affected, but you must admit that Diablo 4 development team’s practice of delaying the launch of Season 8 can indeed minimize the negative effects caused by this influence. When Diablo 4 Season 8 is launched on April 29, the enthusiasm brought by both POE 2 Dawn of the Hunt and Last Epoch Season 2 should have subsided.
However, it must be said that the delay is just a delaying tactic. Diablo 4 can’t do this every time it encounters a similar situation, right? Therefore, seriously developing a new season and improving its own playability is the best solution to face this kind of competition.
Although Diablo 4 Season 8 has not been officially launched, you must be eagerly looking forward to its arrival through the 2.2.0 PTR and other related information! Fortunately, you are getting closer and closer to the release date of the season on April 29.
However, in order to gain an advantage in a short period quickly after the release of Season 8 and enable your new season character to obtain basic boss power as soon as possible, in addition to completing Season 7 battle pass or seasonal journey to obtain all Diablo 4 Gold or other rewards, you also need to understand some gameplay and strategies of Season 8 events in advance. Based on this, we will bring you an introduction to the core season event Apparition Incursions.
Almost every Diablo 4 season has its own season theme, and in order to fully display this theme, sometimes related season powers and events are launched. For the eighth season, it is the boss power and Apparition Incursions event.
Among them, the boss power allows you to obtain their skills by killing 24 bosses of different levels and types provided by Season 8. Each boss can provide 1 main power and 1 modifier power, but you finally choose only one main power and three modifier powers to equip.
But it is worth noting that when you just enter a new season, your character will definitely not be strong enough to challenge those dangerous lair bosses directly. At this time, the 10 Apparition bosses from Apparition Incursions become your best choice to obtain the power of the first wave of bosses. They are:
These Apparition bosses are actually the minions of Belial, the ultimate boss of Season 8, who brought these dangerous followers into Sanctuary and started to create chaos. What you have to do is to drive them out and take away the power they provide.
Apparition Incursions will periodically spawn in the open world of Sanctuary. Once the event starts, large groups of enemies will appear around the area, and an event status bar with a timer will appear below the minimap. Killing these enemies will fill up the status bar, eventually prompting Apparition bosses to spawn at the designated Apparition Incursions icon location.
After you encounter the first Apparition boss and kill it, the event’s invasion icon will move to another location in the area, and a new timer status bar will appear - until you fill it up again by killing enough enemies, and the second Apparition boss will spawn. Killing the second Apparition boss will start a countdown until Belial’s secondary form is summoned. If you can kill Belial, the event will spawn a reward chest for you, which means you have completed an Apparition Incursion.
Since the timer is long enough and the difficulty of enemies other than the boss is low, you can easily fill up the status bar without a group, but just in case, you’ll want to equip some good Diablo 4 items before entering the event. You’ll also need to interact with Betraying Eye as part of the event, but they’re not hard to find.
The final boss of the event, Belial’s secondary form, is more difficult to defeat, but as long as you have good gear and pay attention to avoiding the obvious red void areas that appear on the ground, the V-shaped lines extending from Belial, and any poisonous ground effects during the battle, your chances of survival will be greatly improved.
This should be the part you care about most! In addition to the various Apparition boss powers, you are expected to receive gold, and gear of varying rarities after completing the event. In addition, the reward chest obtained after killing Belial’s secondary form is expected to contain Obols that can be used to upgrade gear.
Obviously, one of the main purposes of participating in and completing Apparition Incursions event is to obtain the powers provided by the bosses in it, so how can you enhance them through upgrades after obtaining these powers? According to the content shown in the 2.2.0 PTR, you can upgrade the boss powers of your equipment with Spectral Ash, a special seasonal currency. And Spectral Ash can upgrade boss power from level 1 to level 20, but the amount consumed is also relatively large. For example, upgrading the power of an Apparition boss requires about 3225 Spectral Ash.
It is expected that this special currency can only be obtained through Apparition Incursions event, and it may be concentrated through the final Belial battle. Although the first two Apparition bosses can provide boss powers for you, no matter what difficulty you kill them, Spectral Ash dropped is only a negligible 1-2.
Other ways to obtain Spectral Ash should also include killing wandering Apparitions (they appear as red skulls on the mini-map), as well as regular Diablo 4 welfare mechanisms, such as season blessings and seasonal journeys. Or completing seasonal quest lines may also reward you with some Spectral Ash. Although the PTR has not announced or explained this, it is indeed the case based on the performance of previous seasons.
The above is the information and help we can provide you with for playing Apparition Incursions event. I wish you outstanding performance in Diablo 4 Season 8!
It has to be said that as a new class that debuted in the first Diablo 4 DLC Vessel of Hatred last year, Spiritborn attracted the attention of most Diablo 4 players at that time, and also made them devote a long time to developing Spiritborn builds in DLC and Season 6.
Later, with the launch of Season 7, as the power of witchcraft became the core of the season, Spiritborn was also properly weakened because it was too powerful before (although this is normal), and the popularity of this class gradually declined. However, this does not mean that Spiritborn is not worth using. In fact, it and some related builds still have excellent performance even in the more difficult endgame stage.
Season 8 is expected to be released on April 29th. In order to ensure that you can get a wonderful experience by playing Spiritborn at that time, we will bring you an introduction to the idea of using Rake Spiritborn Build in the endgame based on the actual test in the 2.2.0 PTR that ended not long ago.
As the name suggests, the main reason this build is effective and powerful is because of the core skill Rake. The strong damage value of this skill and Vigor consumed by each stack of Ferocity allow you to cast Rake freely through careful gear matching and using Duelist’s Aspect to form a powerful AOE effect in combat - this will be perfect for clearing out groups of enemies in Infernal Hordes or Pit and satisfying your need to get a lot of Diablo 4 Gold at one time, not to mention other more precious loot.
Of course, no build is truly perfect, and Rake Spiritborn Build has some shortcomings in terms of survivability. Fortunately, this can be solved by adjusting it according to the needs of specific Diablo 4 events, such as equipping legendary aspects and potions with better defense.
Generally speaking, the ability point allocation of this skill just needs to follow the idea of relying on Jaguar skills and passive skills, as follows:
Thrash is the basic ability in this build, but the appearance of Vigor generation will reduce its usage rate. Therefore, it is recommended that you put a point into the ability and then enhance Thrash to unlock the next skill node.
Rake is undoubtedly the real core.
As the main skill of this part, Vortex will gather enemies, making them more vulnerable to Rake skills, and Ravager will further enhance Rake.
As the only defensive skill of Rake Spiritborn Build, Counter Attack can gain a stronger passive effect by stacking dodge chance.
This build has no skills that apply to the potency node, but several passive skills in the cluster can increase the damage output of the build.
For this build, the key passive choice depends on the mercenary you use. If using Aldkin, Vital Strikes would be a better choice, but if using Subo, Prodigy’s Tempo is the best choice.
Rake Spiritborn Builds are better with Eagle as the first Spirit Hall, as it increases your clearing speed with movement buffs, while allowing Jaguar skill to make all skills Eagle skills while benefiting from acceleration and brilliance passives. In fact, many Spiritborn builds are worth doing this.
As for the second slot, it is recommended that you choose Jaguar Spirit, so that you can not only stack Ferocity on kills but also increase the maximum stack Ferocity by 1, further improving the lethality of this build.
If you want to make this build more indestructible, you must get as much suitable legendary aspects and unique items for it as possible.
According to the way Rake Spiritborn Build works, in addition to the indispensable Duelist’s Aspect, you can further obtain and equip Aspect of the Crowded Sage and Aspect of Assimilation. These two aspects can make the build more tanky and provide benefits such as strengthening and healing while increasing the chance of dodge. If you want to further improve this build, the following aspects are also good:
The three recommended for general unique items are:
Also, while this build does not require Mythic Uniques to work, Nesekem the Herald, which can stack suppression and critical strike damage and provide movement speed bonus, is worth having.
Season 8 will add boss powers as new seasonal powers, and if you can combine them with Rake Spiritborn Build, I believe you will have the opportunity to get a better combat experience as a Spiritborn in the Season 8 endgame!
Dungeons are an important mechanic for most ARPGs. Although different dungeons may have different background stories or built-in quests, there is no doubt that they are designed to provide you with a place to farm game resources through combat. As a top-level ARPG, Diablo 4 naturally has a variety of dungeons to farm.
Generally speaking, Diablo 4 will add some seasonal additional dungeons for you to explore when a new season arrives. Although playing them can get some seasonal items and special fun, it has to be said that those Diablo 4 dungeon types that have accompanied you through multiple seasons are the truly reliable source of Diablo 4 Gold! For example, the nightmare dungeon we are going to introduce to you this time.
Maybe you think you are familiar with nightmare dungeons because you are an old Diablo 4 player, but because the game often adjusts the regular mechanics when a new season arrives-for example, you used to be able to upgrade glyphs in this dungeon, but after Vessel of Hatred expansion went online, the place for glyph upgrades became The Pit. Therefore, in order to fully guarantee your Season 8 nightmare dungeon experience, we will once again provide you with relevant game guides.
As you know, from a functional point of view, all Diablo 4 dungeons can be regarded as a resource output location. Of course, the premise is that you can kill the enemies in it. However, the amount and rarity of resources provided by dungeons of different difficulties are also different. If you want to improve the efficiency of resource acquisition by challenging high-difficulty dungeons, you must use other methods to obtain the key to convert ordinary dungeons into advanced dungeons.
So if you want to enter the nightmare dungeon, you need to have enough Nightmare Sigils and then consume it to generate (or convert) the nightmare dungeon. After generating and entering it, you will find that the layout of these nightmare dungeons is random, and the events that may be encountered in them are also random, usually Resplendent Chest boss or other known events.
After completing these nightmare dungeon events, the game will reward equipment of different qualities and different amounts of Diablo 4 Gold and Obols according to the specific difficulty. If you want to continue to get more rewards by increasing the difficulty on this basis, you can use Nightmare Portal affix to increase the difficulty of the dungeon, then destroy the portal and kill various monsters that are not common in the dungeons in a specific area, such as The Butcher, which has a very random probability of appearing.
There are currently more than 140 ordinary dungeons available for exploration in the game, but not all dungeons can be used as nightmare dungeons, because only a subset of these dungeons can be converted into nightmare dungeons. As for which part can be converted, it depends on the seasonal arrangement of Season 8 in the future. In addition, if you do not enter the corresponding nightmare dungeon within 2 minutes after conversion, it will automatically close.
As an important conversion item, it can be said that without Nightmare Sigils, you will never be able to enter the Diablo 4 nightmare dungeon, so we must introduce you to two ways to obtain this item.
This method requires you to work hard to complete other Diablo 4 events and quests, mainly including completing Whispers of the Dead to obtain corresponding rewards, defeating world bosses, killing enemies in nightmare dungeons to obtain random drops, and fixed rewards for completing a nightmare dungeon.
If you are not lucky enough, cannot always find Nightmare Sigils in random drops, or find it difficult to defeat those bosses, then it is recommended that you consider the second method.
Generally speaking, it only takes 4,000 gold and 60 Sigil Powder to craft a Nightmare Sigil, and Sigil Powder is mainly dropped through caches and defeating elites. After obtaining enough crafting materials, you need to go to Occultist, because only they can complete the crafting process.
As we have already mentioned, adding affixes to a nightmare dungeon can change its difficulty. Specifically, there are two types of affixes. One is the affixes that are good for you, including:
The other type of affixes makes enemies more powerful, including:
Whether you want to earn specific items, XP for upgrades, Paragon points or gold, nightmare dungeons can do it, but its real value lies in providing you with Obducite. This item can be used to upgrade Masterworking, which is to increase the value of the existing affixes of the item, making your character more powerful. It is worth noting that completing Infernal Hordes can also do this.
The above is some knowledge you need to know in advance when farming nightmare dungeons in Diablo 4 Season 8. It is expected that some seasonal content may be added to the dungeon before and after the official launch of the season, or some changes to make it get more seasonal characteristic (boss power). Please be sure to pay attention to relevant information in time, or we will also bring you instant info! Thank you for reading!
