There is no doubt that when you play Diablo 4, your ultimate goal should be to upgrade your character to make him/her more powerful and complete the entire game smoothly. To do this, besides XP required for upgrading, Diablo 4 Gold and the help provided by various game items are also indispensable.
In fact, most of these items will drop for you as loot. All you have to do is to strive for this drop opportunity for yourself by completing various tasks or killing related bosses. In the latest Diablo 4 Season 7, there are three challenges that can be your most efficient way to farm loot. Based on this, we will introduce them to you one by one.
As a unique seasonal mechanism of Season of Witchcraft, Headhunt will convert certain areas on the map into Headhunt zones, while generating unique Whispers, and you can get Grim Favor by completing these Whispers.
Completing Whispers in an area will earn you a total of 10 Grim Favors, and a choice of rewards from three random caches. These caches may contain a variety of unique items and crafting materials, so you can choose which one you want.
It’s worth noting that each Whisper has their own special rules and requirements that you need to follow to complete the corresponding Whisper. In addition, some Whispers will give you more Grim Favors, so you can also prioritize completing those.
Completing each Whisper will spawn exposed roots, and interacting with these roots will also drop many unique items for you. And don’t forget to open Silent chests you find when completing a Whisper, as they also have a lot of unique loot.
This Whisper allows you to destroy the roots and free the trapped villagers by killing a group of Headrotten enemies that spawn in the area, which will attack you. This Whisper is completed after all four villagers are freed.
This is arguably the most important Whisper in Season 7 so far, but you must complete other Whispers in the area to spawn Fugitive. You can interact with the exposed roots in this Whisper as they appear, then pick up the loot and wait for Fugitive to appear. Do this enough times and Fugitive will spawn, which you can defeat.
To complete this Whisper, you need to follow the patrols of the guards, always keeping yourself within their radius while defeating enemies, as only enemies within the radius will count towards your progress in Patrol Whisper. In fact, you can even complete this Whisper while running other Whispers at the same time.
This Whisper is very simple and can be completed by defeating the target number of Headrotten enemies in the area in a timely manner, so it can also be completed at the same time as other Whispers.
Scour requires you to gather herbs to obtain specific materials, and your interactions with the gathering points will count towards Whisper progress. Currently in Scour, you must check seven different locations to obtain all the components you need. Afterwards, take the materials you obtain and burn them in the brazier, which will spawn the Headrotten enemies, which can be defeated to complete this Whisper.
To complete this Whisper, you must stand within the radius of four animals and move with them, guiding them to a safe place. It’s worth noting that you have to guide the animals one by one, rather than guiding all four away at once.
In this Whisper, you only need to kill a specific number of enemies. But unlike Purge the Rot, the enemies you need to kill in Slay don’t have to be Headrotten, any hostile unit will do.
This Whisper requires you to follow Wisp, during which Headrotten enemies will occasionally spawn around it. When Wisp is stationary, you can defeat enemies to advance Whisper progress. Wisps Whisper is completed when you fill up the progress bar above Wisp.
If you have played Diablo 4 frequently before, you will know that dungeons are an important source of loot drops in the game. These dungeons are scattered in each area of the map. After conquering them, you will also have the opportunity to unlock new aspects, and when you complete the marked dungeons in Headhunt area in Season 7, you can also get additional Grim Favors. Here are the two dungeons that I recommend you to complete first in the current season.
This type of dungeon is arguably one of the classic ways to get loot in Diablo 4, and to unlock it, you must complete various world events, including Whispers, to obtain keys to enter nightmare dungeons. These keys can turn normal dungeons into nightmare dungeons, increasing the level of enemies within them, giving you more rewards after completing more tough challenges.
You can also think of this dungeon as a type of nightmare dungeon, but it is a new dungeon introduced in Season 7 and runs separately from regular nightmare dungeons. To enter Rootholds, you need to obtain Rootholds keys, which transform normal dungeons into Rootholds. The internal mechanism of Rootholds is similar to Infernal Hordes, requiring you to select modifiers twice to go deeper.
Once you have completed enough nightmare dungeons and obtained three Runeshards, you can go to Cerrigar and interact with the obelisk to unlock Pit of Artificers. As an endgame dungeon, Pit of Artificers can provide a lot of unique items and other crafting materials to help you enter the endgame. In addition, if you need Tempering and Masterworking components, then Pit of Artificers is also worth your challenge.
If you are playing Diablo 4 season 7 recently and need a lot of loot urgently, please follow the above method to start loot farming! I hope you can collect all the game items you want as soon as possible!
I believe you should have known through experience 2.2.0 PTR or watching related information that Diablo 4 Season 8 will bring boss power as a seasonal power plan, and will also bring back the classic boss Belial who once showed his prowess in Diablo 3.
According to the known information, Belial is expected to meet you in D4S8 as a Lair boss. On this basis, if you have not played Diablo 3, you may still be in a state of knowing nothing about it-in fact, 2.2.0 PTR does not fully show the combat content related to it. Therefore, in order to prepare in advance for obtaining Diablo 4 Gold and boss power by farming this boss in Season 8, you may want to know Belial’s identity, combat method, and what role he plays in the entire Diablo series plot.
Although Belial’s final performance may be different from that in Diablo 3 after Diablo 4 Season 8 is officially launched, the core information should not change too much, and the following information should be able to provide you with some reference.
If you know something about the entire Diablo series, you will know two premises about the plot: first, the names of almost all villains come from the Bible; second, these villains can be divided into Prime Evils and Lesser Evils according to their identity and strength. As one of the most important demons in Hell, Belial’s design inspiration comes from Belial in the Bible, and he is one of Lesser Evils.
In the story of Diablo, Belial and the other three Lesser Evils Azmodan, Andariel and Duriel often conflict with Prime Evils, including Diablo, Mephisto, and Baal, and eventually expel them from hell to Sanctuary and imprison them. However, this is only part of Diablo’s plan to escape from Hell and conquer the human world and even heaven.
In the stories of Diablo 2 and Immortal, only Belial and Azmodan are still active demons, and the rest of the demons returned to the void after being defeated, so they planned to take the opportunity to conquer Sanctuary. However, not only did they fail, but they were also imprisoned in the soul stone together, except for Diablo, whose whereabouts are unknown. After that, Diablo continued to attack Sanctuary and Heaven until he was defeated and thrown back into the abyss at the end of Diablo 3. But his failure also led to the release of Belial and other demons, which may mean a more terrible future.
In the current Diablo 4 story, Andariel, Duriel and Lilith have joined forces to put an end to Diablo and his conspiracy, but Belial and Azmodan have not yet appeared. Therefore, it can be foreseen that if Belial really returns to Season 8, Sanctuary is bound to face a more hard storm.
In Diablo 3, Belial’s boss fight takes place in the final mission of Act 2. After a short cutscene, you will officially face him in Imperial Palace. The entire fight is divided into 3 phases. The first phase is called “Even if you defeat me...” During this period, Belial will not fight himself, but will summon a fixed number of Veiled Sentinels and Veiled Evokers to attack you.
If you enter phase 2, “I will not be undone!”, it means that the previous summons are ineffective against you and Belial needs to be alert to you. Belial’s health will not be very high in this phase, but it should be noted that he will still summon minions and use the following skills, depending on the battle situation:
When Belial’s health in phase 2 is reduced to less than 25% of his total health, it means that phase 3 is about to begin. During this time, Belial’s health will be restored to the maximum, but he will also become unable to move, and his skills will be changed to:
This boss is almost immune to control impairment in phase 3, so you must deal direct damage to him. Based on this, it would be a good choice to equip Xephirian amulet. In addition, the boss skill that really deserves your attention in this phase is Fist Slam, which is the most dangerous.
Belial is expected to have three forms in Diablo 4 Season 8. The first is Apparition boss, which you can unlock double loot drops by defeating it quickly. Later, in Torment difficulty, Belial will continue to appear as a Lair boss. Defeating Belial in this case will unlock his Crystal Decoy boss power. If you can also defeat his Exalted Lair boss version, you can even get Eye Beams power.
In addition, if Belial will receive a similar story setting as Lilith, Mephisto, and Lord Zir in Season 8, you may also encounter his story boss version in the story quest. However, these and more related information can only be confirmed when Season 8 is officially launched.
If the information we provide makes you more interested in this boss, you can try to experience Diablo 3, or go to the forum to read more detailed Belial story lines compiled by other players. Thank you for reading.
Hey, if your progress in Season 7 is slow, then I think your priority now is not to rush to preview Season 8 through the 2.2.0 PTR, but to return to Season 7, which is still in full swing, and let your character fully complete all the tasks that can be rewarded, so that this season can play all its due role here, and ensure that you have enough resource reserves when Season 8 arrives.
There are so many types of resources in Diablo 4 and the corresponding most suitable farming methods, so that it may be difficult for you to explore every corner in Season 7 now. After all, the season is barely halfway through. However, among all resource farming methods, repeatedly challenging bosses should really be your first choice, because this method provides the most and most precious resources in the game at present.
Although each season has its own unique content, the good news is that most Diablo 4 bosses are universal and you can always use them to earn a lot of Diablo 4 Gold or other more surprising items. Although some of them are very challenging, what’s the saying? There is always a reward for every risk! However, in order to minimize the danger of high-difficulty bosses, this time we will introduce you to the most efficient tactics for farming Duriel, one of the high-level bosses in Diablo 4 Season 7.
Yes, there are some annoying Diablo 4 bosses represented by Duriel. Not only are they difficult, but they also require you to provide specific summoning materials to summon them in order to unlock related encounters. Duriel King of Maggots first appeared in D2, and in D4, he is an Uber boss. To summon him, you need 2 Mucus-Slicked Eggs and 2 Shards of Agony. They are obtained as follows:
Although the other boss encounters related to these items are also difficult, the good thing is that the drop rate of Duriel’s summoning materials after victory is 100%. In addition, I need to remind you separately that, first, in order to save time and energy, you can concentrate on farming summoning materials so that Duriel can be summoned continuously; second, if you want to summon Tormented Duriel, you need 6 Mucus-Slick Eggs and 6 Shards of Agony.
After collecting enough summoning materials, it’s time to go looking for Duriel. He is in Gaping Crevasse dungeon in Kehjistan near the capital Gea Kul. But remember to switch worlds before leaving, because this dungeon is only for level 50 players at any Torment level. If you can, it is recommended that you get Elixir of Poison Resistance II from the alchemist, which is very useful for defeating Duriel.
The confrontation with this boss can be divided into two stages. In the first stage, you face some soldiers following him, which is not worth mentioning. The second stage is the official boss battle.
Gaping Crevasse is full of Duriel’s followers and disciples, but as long as you can get here, it means that you have at least completed the main campaign, the character level has reached 50 or above, and the Torment difficulty has been unlocked, so it is very easy to deal with these enemies. After clearing it, please go to Pestilent Altar and sacrifice the summoning materials you hold here to summon Echo of Duriel and officially start the boss battle.
Duriel’s biggest feature is his fast speed and multiple deadly abilities, such as Claw Slash, Poison Pool, etc. For this reason, you must drink the previously recommended Elixir of Poison Resistance II before the battle begins to ensure that your health will not be greatly damaged at the beginning.
Next, please quickly deal with the two Pangs of Duriel minions to prevent them from causing additional harassment to you during the battle. Once you’re done, walk your character straight to the edge of the cliff to limit Duriel’s movement and focus his attacks in one direction, while sitting down and continuing to launch fatal attacks on him to kill him, preventing him from going underground and triggering the more difficult second stage.
But if you are unlucky enough to enter the second stage of Duriel boss battle, don’t worry too much, just leave the notch on the edge of the cliff to kill the newly spawned minions and wait for Duriel to return and defeat him. After that, you can get the loot he brings, including items common to all classes and unique items exclusive to each class.
If you think the above guide is useful and you haven’t concentrated on farming Duriel boss in Season 7, then act quickly!
Maybe before January 2025, you were looking forward to entering Diablo 4 Season 7 as soon as possible to experience the power of witchcraft, but now you may have become tired of these fancy seasonal powers! After all, players always get tired of Diablo 4 season so easily.
Fortunately, in order to adapt to your “bad habit”, Diablo 4 will also update the season at a suitable frequency to ensure that you can play new content in Diablo 4 before you turn to other games because of boredom. Although you will know the bad news recently that the launch time of Season 8 has been postponed, at least you can still get a preview through the 2.2.0 PTR.
Among all the content shown in this PTR, the most attractive one should be the available boss power - just like the witchcraft power in Season 7. This mechanism is likely to be the future seasonal power of Season 8, which encourages you to challenge all Diablo 4 bosses in this way, even the extremely difficult Lilith!
This PTR for Season 8 was launched on March 11 and will last until the 18th. It shows a series of new content that may appear in Season 8, such as after defeating the boss, in addition to picking up a large amount of Diablo 4 Gold dropped, you can even get their skills and abilities as new rewards!
On this basis, 2.2.0 PTR also shows you the new boss Belial by adding the phantom invasion event-it has appeared in D3, and through it and Urivar from the DLC, a new lair boss system is established to redefine the working method of Diablo 4 endgame boss. In short, all these signs in 2.2.0 PTR indicate that Season 8 will bring you countless boss battles that subvert your cognition.
While defeating bosses like Andariel or Varshan has been one of the best ways to farm resources in past seasons, the new mechanics shown in the 2.2.0 PTR, which will be part of Season 8, will undoubtedly give you more motivation to fight bosses. Because the beauty of these boss powers as rewards is that you can get its power as long as you defeat the corresponding boss, rather than randomly dropping it like regular loot.
When facing a battle where you can’t confirm the reward results, you are likely to be in a more passive state from the beginning, especially if the difficulty of this battle is high. But if the game mechanics guarantee that you will get something, like boss powers, most Diablo 4 players, including you, will be more willing to fight. This will not only drive the activity of the entire game community but also make those daunting bosses in the past better integrated into the season process, such as Lilith.
In addition, it is expected that the use and acquisition of all boss powers are not restricted by your character’s class, so you can make full use of them to improve your Diablo 4 build, and the relevant modifier abilities will also increase the possibility of you benefiting from boss powers. What’s more interesting is that using boss power may allow you to perform cool moves like the boss in battle, making your gaming experience richer.
As a classic villain in Diablo series and one of the main bosses of Diablo 4, Lilith has a good popularity on the one hand, and the difficulty of killing her on the other hand makes many players want to retreat from her encounter in actual combat, even though the loot is also rich.
However, if Season 8 really sets boss power as the main seasonal mechanism, it means that you will be able to obtain her unparalleled abilities by defeating Lilith. It can be said that the more this boss scared you in the past, the more you will want her power in the future. In fact, with Lilith as a representative, it can be foreseen that when Season 8 is officially launched, all traditional Diablo 4 bosses will be rejuvenated, and it is very likely to rewrite Diablo 4’s boss encounter completely.
First of all, these new powers will improve builds, which will most likely help builds that were not very strong to become better, or upgrade already strong builds to become more effective, such as Beastmaster’s Training power that you can get in Apparition Incursion event shown in the 2.2.0 PTR.
After obtaining this power, Beastmaster’s active skill will make your summons or mercenaries taunt enemies and gain 40% damage reduction when you first summon them; the modifier skill will increase the damage of all summons by at least 5%, and if you have better items or a more comprehensive Paragon board equipped, this value can even increase to 17%. In fact, this summon-related power will be very suitable for Necromancer builds.
In addition, some higher-level boss powers will be very interesting when they are yours. Duriel’s Burrow will turn your evasion into an attack, allowing you to dig tunnels underground, immobilize enemies and deal huge damage to clear them. Lilith’s Wind of Hate skill will send a wave of spikes to the enemy, dealing 250% physical damage, and further increasing the damage each time it hits the enemy.
Although it’s easy to get bored with new seasonal powers, it has to be said that at least at the beginning they all brought you a lot of novelty. Future boss powers may have a chance to perform better in Season 8, and all we have to do is wait and see.
As you know, each Diablo 4 season has its own seasonal powers and mechanics, and sometimes there will be updates and upgrades in basic mechanics and gameplay. This means that no matter what base class you played in the previous season or what universal builds you used, you need to adjust them in time according to the latest situation after entering the new season.
Take Druid’s Shred Lacerate Druid Build as an example. Not long ago, we showed you how to make this build maximize the benefits of the season by making full use of the limited witchcraft power of Season 7 to help your endgame. This time we will show you how another Druid build that is somewhat similar to Shred Lacerate and equally powerful can work in Season 7, that is Crit Lacerate.
As its name suggests, Crit Lacerate mainly uses Lacerate as its main damage output method. However, although this skill is very lethal, it also has a relatively long cooldown. Therefore, most builds centered around this skill need to focus on reducing the cooldown in order to better utilize Lacerate in addition to ensuring their own damage output. Crit Lacerate Druid Build is no exception.
The key to reducing the cooldown of Lacerate in this build is NaguXan Runeword and Flickerstep: the former guarantees crit and suppression, and is activated by keeping companion skills activated, while the latter allows you to reduce the cooldown of Lacerate while dodging enemies.
On this basis, if you want to fully unleash the power of this build, you should try to keep six companions from various summoning skills active at all times, and cast Lacerate when they are on cooldown. While Lacerate is on cooldown, you should trigger Flickerstep by dodging enemies, while using Blood Howl and Debilitating Roar to increase your character’s survivability.
Overall, Crit Lacerate Druid Build isn’t the best build in Diablo 4 Season 7, but it’s unmatched in terms of attack speed when fighting groups, making it a great choice for clearing dungeons like Helltides, Kurast Undercity, or Infernal Hordes.
However, where this build really shines is when it comes to clearing Pit Pushing Tier Lists, where enemies are often packed into a small space, and the build can instantly clear large groups of enemies with Flash Step and other AOE effects from key skills.
In fact, if you use this build well, it can become one of the most effective builds for your Druid character to explore Pit, helping you get as much Diablo 4 Gold or whatever other resources you want in this type of dungeon as possible.
For Crit Lacerate Druid Build, in addition to the ultimate skill Lacerate, other skills and their coordination are also important, and you need to give them different skill points according to the importance of each skill, as follows:
Basic Skills
Core Skills
Defensive Skills
Companion Skills
Wrath Skills
Ultimate Skills
Key Passive Skills
After completing the basic composition of the build through skills, it is also important to choose the most suitable Spirit Offering to make the build gain more bonuses. For Crit Lacerate Druid Build, Eagle and Wolf Spirits are more suitable.
These two Spirit Boons can provide 40% critical damage and 35% increase in the duration of the ultimate skill, respectively. Since Lacerate will continue to attack for the duration, and each attack may cause a critical hit, these two buffs will bring you more damage buffs in combat.
When choosing and building Paragon boards and glyphs for this build, it is recommended that you focus on improving critical chance and damage, as well as other options that can make the build’s stats better, such as:
It is worth noting that when you use this build in Pit, it is best to continue upgrading Paragon glyphs and follow the following order:
Leveling Order To 15
Leveling Order to 46
I believe you should have noticed that Fang and Claw was replaced by Wild in two different situations. This is because the damage bonus of Fang and Claw is good in the early stage, but the legendary ability of Wild can bring you more benefits in high Pit levels.
In addition to the essential NaguXan Runeword, in fact, if you can insert a second Runeword for this build, the build can bring you more benefits. For this, it is recommended that you give priority to the following options:
As for gem selection, it is recommended that you fill all remaining armor slots with Sapphires and use Emeralds in your weapons to increase critical hit damage, while filling resistance with jewel slots can bring you to the armor cap of 1000.
If after reading the above, you can’t wait to use Crit Lacerate Druid Build in the game for combat and dungeon exploration, then act quickly! Good luck!
Many MMORPGs will regularly release DLCs in addition to updating the basic game. This approach can not only ensure that the game as a whole is updated to continue to bring you freshness, but also increase the richness and completeness of the game from multiple angles in the form of side expansion.
As the latest series of Diablo, Diablo 4, which was launched in 2023, finally launched the first DLC in the series, Vessel of Hatred, in 2024. It not only received a lot of attention before the launch but also received countless praises after the launch, which also gave Diablo 4 more motivation to continue to develop new expansions.
Rod Fergusson, one leader of Diablo 4, announced in 2023 that the game planned to launch one DLC per year on average, but at the recent DICE Summit in Las Vegas, Fergusson said that this plan would be changed, and the release of the new DLC is expected to be directly delayed to 2026.
Diablo 4 launched the latest Season of Witchcraft on January 21, 2025, which brings you an unprecedented Diablo 4 experience by providing many new witchcraft powers, and further broadens your Diablo 4 Gold farming options by adding seasonal events such as Headhunt zone and Roothold dungeon.
In addition, although the release time of Season 8 has been postponed, according to the content in the 2.2.0 PTR, the eighth season will also be a wonderful season worth looking forward to, especially the mechanism of making bosses power available may completely rewrite the rules of the game of Diablo 4. In fact, all this undoubtedly means that Diablo 4 will show its prowess in 2025, just to bring you a better gaming experience.
On this basis, perhaps you will look forward to the new DLC more in addition to the new season, after all, Vessel of Hatred performs very well. Unfortunately, franchise general manager Rod Fergusson said in a panel discussion at the previous DICE Summit that the original annual plan of one DLC per year will be changed, and the release of the second Diablo 4 DLC will be postponed to 2026.
Just like you plan ahead for your work or study, life is full of various force majeure, and many times they will prevent you from completing your plans as usual, and the same is true for any game company. In fact, the release of Vessel of Hatred last year was about 6 months later than the developers’ ideal time.
Compared with the regular new season, the content of DLC will be richer, whether it is the setting of the main storyline or the update of the mode and gameplay, the overall volume is almost close to the development of a small RPG, so it is normal that Diablo 4 will take longer on it. On this basis, if you want to ensure that every aspect of the expansion is as good as possible to ensure your future gaming experience, developers must invest extra energy on optimization.
Given the ongoing pressure to maintain a live service game and the pursuit of making DLC perfect, it is completely understandable that Diablo 4 decided to postpone the release of new DLC. In fact, most MMORPGs also encounter this special obstacle. In fact, since Diablo 4 was first released in 2023, the game has been busy with various developments.
Since 2025 has just begun, out of concern for Diablo 4 and curiosity about its next plans, players will inevitably pay too much attention to the development of the new season and new DLC. The reasons behind this may be due to the following aspects.
It has been more than a month since the launch of Season 7. If you have been playing since the beginning, you should have experienced all kinds of new seasonal powers and events. In addition, the launch of Season 8 has been delayed, so you may feel bored during this period, especially if you have already played Vessel of Hatred. As a result, the attention of Diablo 4 fans will inevitably be diverted to the development progress of new content.
The good news is that although Season 8 and the new expansion cannot meet you for the time being, you have the opportunity to experience the charm of Season 8 first in the 2.2.0 PTR. At least in the week from 3.11 to 3.18, you should have a fulfilling time through the PTR.
As the first expansion of Diablo 4, Vessel of Hatred not only brings you a new class Spiritborn and enriches the main storyline, but more importantly, it combines with the sixth season that was launched together to enrich the mechanism and gameplay of Diablo 4, fully ensuring your experience.
For example, in terms of upgrades and loot systems, Vessel of Hatred sets the maximum level of your character to level 60, but then you can continue to upgrade to level 300 through Paragon board, thereby obtaining more builds to use possibilities and helping you get through the endgame stage more smoothly. This is conducive to letting a new character explore and helping your character win more powerful loot.
In addition, the newly added zone Nahantu provides you with more possibilities for exploration, and the new limited-time dungeon Kurast Undercity also brings more channels for farming Diablo 4 Gold and other resources, ensuring that your character can accumulate resources steadily.
In short, although the new DLC will not be available to you until a long time later, we can foresee that the developers will devote a lot of energy and effort to it to ensure that you will be able to get a good enough experience through it. So I believe your wait will be worth it!
Since the news that Season 7 was extended and Season 8 was postponed, most Diablo 4 players have become more excited about Season 8. Although you have to wait more than a month to enter Season 8, the good news is that you will be able to experience Season 8 PTR first in a few days!
Setting up a PTR for a new season is a common practice for Diablo 4. This allows players who experience it to find some deficiencies through early testing, so that they can make improvements before the new season goes online. On the other hand, it can also raise your expectations for the next season through positive feedback from these players.
As for Season 8, although the PTR has not yet been officially launched, there is already a lot of surprising news about the PTR and the season itself. Based on this, we will introduce it to you.
The developer released a new “What You Need to Know” article on March 7, bringing you a preview of Season 8 PTR. According to the PTR content shown in the article, this 2.2.0 PTR will officially start on March 11 and last for a whole week until March 18. During this period, you will be able to test the new content of the future Season 8 through the PTR in depth, and you will encounter the return of Belial.
In addition to these new content or bosses, the most important change in the eighth episode shown by the PTR is that the endgame will become more difficult. Although this may make your Diablo 4 Gold farming journey more challenging, it will also exercise your game level. In fact, the current Season of Witchcraft, as well as the sixth or fifth seasons that have ended, were once considered having dropped too much difficulty and ruined the game experience.
This boss first appeared in Diablo 3. As a disciple of Mephisto, he showed great destructive power and dark power. He is a boss that you need to be alert to deal with. In the future Diablo 4 Season 8, Belial will return as the most difficult lair boss in the game so far, showing you the difficulty changes of Season 8 from his perspective.
In order to push the endgame difficulty to a new height, Diablo 4 Season 8 will implement a new lair boss ladder through Belial, and it is even said that this battle is more challenging than Duriel or Andariel boss battles you are familiar with in the past. Perhaps in 2.2.0 PTR, you will experience Belial’s ambush on you and the chaos he creates.
In fact, in addition to Belial’s return, various special boss powers will also be introduced through Season 8, which means that in the future you will be able to use their powers to further strengthen your Diablo 4 builds by defeating various bosses, whether these bosses are world, event or endgame (now called lair) bosses.
According to the information revealed by the current 2.2.0 PTR, it is expected that 24 Diablo 4 bosses can provide these powers, including Lilith. It can be imagined that in the future, these new powers originally from hostile forces will inevitably set off an unprecedented Diablo 4 innovation in Season 8, thus completely changing the rules of the game.
According to statistics, Diablo 4 developers have found that since Season 6, the number of players who can quickly enter the endgame and reach the speed of Torment 4 has doubled, and in Season 7, 50% of players have even reached a higher level.
Although this means that more and more people are willing to play the game, if the endgame and higher-level difficult content of an ARPG become less challenging, it may cause players to lose interest in the future, which is not conducive to the long-term development of the game.
Based on this, the developers of Diablo 4 will first show you the difficulty of adjustment of the eighth season through 2.2.0 PTR, such as the reduction in the drop frequency of legendary items, the increase in the difficulty level of Torment, and the changes in the combat mechanism related to the final boss, so that you can get real training in the next season.
In the latest “What You Need to Know” article, the developers showed you the main content of 2.2.0 PTR, many of which are very important mechanism changes and are closely related to your game experience. Based on this, we will introduce you to some of the main contents.
As we have already introduced, the power of 24 bosses may be used by you. Specifically, each boss can provide you with 2 kinds of power, and you can get the corresponding power after killing the target boss. These two powers include primary effects and modifiers. You can activate up to 1 primary power and 3 modifier powers at a time.
The primary power will become the main component of your future builds, while the modifier power is used to enhance the primary power of your equipment to bring it to a new level. Therefore, it is recommended that you learn how to combine primary power and modifier power in the PTR effectively to find the best combination for you to enter Season 8.
This may be the seasonal event of Season 8. The returning Belial brought his minions into Sanctuary. You need to work hard to eliminate them in order to ensure the safety of Sanctuary and obtain gold and other event rewards. In fact, completing this event should also help you obtain boss power.
The above is the new content related to Season 8 that we can provide you with at present. Please prepare for the upcoming PTR!
