No matter how many resources you have accumulated at the end of the previous Diablo 4 season, facing the new season that requires you to re-farm in all aspects, these remaining resources should not be enough for you to complete your new season character, and you must continue to work hard to get more Diablo 4 gold or XP.
Since its launch on April 29, you will find that Season 8 provides a lot of new loot, such as equippable boss powers and new unique items for different classes. Of course, this also means that you need to complete new battles to obtain them.
Because of the difficulty setting of the game content and the adjustment of the lair boss mechanism, farming in Season 8 is now more difficult, especially after unlocking and entering Torment difficulty. Based on this, we will introduce you to 7 related tips to improve your resource farming efficiency.
This event is a seasonal event in Season 8, as a reflection of the demon army of the ultimate boss Belial in specific gameplay. This event brings 10 Apparition bosses, and two of them will randomly spawn after you kill normal Apparition enemies in each event. After killing the boss, Belial’s secondary form will appear.
This event will last for the entire season and will refresh every 5 minutes, so you can repeatedly farm it to maximize the gold and XP it can pass. In addition, you will also gain corresponding boss powers after killing Apparition bosses, which will help shape your early game builds.
After gaining some basic boss powers through Apparition Incursions, you should be able to handle most of the early game content, so you can upgrade to level 50 by completing them, and then continue to upgrade to level 60 by completing Nahantu strongholds in DLC.
Follow this strategy to complete the upgrade, you will not only unlock Torment difficulty as soon as possible, but also smoothly deal with more endgame dungeons and events after that, to earn more precious items you need.
Helltides is a bit like a permanent version of Apparition Incursions, providing you with a lot of loot every season since its launch. You can start running this event as long as you unlock Torment difficulty. Completing it and defeating the main bosses such as Blood Maiden will earn you XP or items that can also gear up.
It is worth noting that running Helltides will also drop Infernal Horde Compasses for you. This item can be used to open Infernal Hordes, after which this event will spawn multiple waves of enemies. You just need to complete these waves and defeat Fell Council without exhausting all your resurrections to get the reward.
The first thing you need to know is that you can only enter Kurast Undercity and complete the related challenges if you have DLC Vessel of Hatred, but it has to be said that it is indeed one of the best ways for you to earn lair boss keys, gold, gear and XP in Season 8.
As a limited-time level, you need to farm and consume tribute to open Kurast Undercity challenge and get loot. Different types of tribute will also give you different loot after the battle, so you must choose carefully in order not to waste the opportunity to fight - fortunately, the value of these loot is very good.
This should be the most difficult Diablo 4 endgame dungeon, with 150 levels, and the difficulty and the quantity and quality of loot will increase layer by layer. And The Pit is extra special in that it is also the way for you to unlock the difficulty of Torment (complete 10 levels of The Pit to unlock Torment 1).
In fact, the most intuitive benefit of farming in The Pit is that you can get a lot of XP in a short time, so that your character can complete the upgrade as soon as possible. In addition, completing The Pit tasks within the specified time is also the only way to upgrade glyphs in the game and embed them into Paragon board.
Except for the early Apparition bosses, the truly valuable bosses in Season 8 are mainly lair bosses that you will encounter after entering the endgame. They can provide stronger boss power and better loot, and can start the battle without summoning materials.
It is worth noting that in order to open the corresponding hoard after the boss dies and take away the rewards, you need to obtain lair keys in advance. All lair bosses are divided into three levels. Killing low-level bosses can drop high-level keys. In addition, Tribute of Titans in Kurast Undercity can also be used for farming lair keys.
There is no doubt that as one of the best buff items in the game, Mythic Uniques can bring a qualitative leap to your character and quickly become powerful to cope with higher levels of Torment difficulty. But you must also work hard to get them.
In Diablo 4 Season 8, the main ways to obtain Mythic Uniques include defeating bosses and crafting. The higher the boss level, the greater the possibility of dropping. As for crafting, you need to have Resplendent Sparks as the main material.
There are two sources of Resplendent Sparks. The first is to get a direct drop by defeating Lilith at Torment 1-4 difficulty (although this is difficult); the second is to earn Spectral Ash by killing lair bosses to increase your seasonal reputation levels, then final reputation reward includes a Resplendent Spark.
If you can master the skills and builds of the character class, and fight hard on the above 7 occasions, I believe you will soon get enough game resources! Have fun!
If you are a die-hard Diablo 4 player, you will know that there are a variety of items in the game that can benefit you in different ways. Some of them are gear that can be upgraded and utilized directly after obtaining, and some are more special items.
It is worth noting that when Diablo 4 is updated with a season, sometimes new buff items are added for the new season. In Season 9, this item is undoubtedly Horadric Jewels.
But it should be noted that Horadric Jewels cannot be obtained directly through combat drops like Diablo 4 gold or unique items. Instead, you need to farm Horadric Phials and gem fragments separately and craft them to obtain them.
Among them, Horadric Phials has been introduced to you in other guides and is also a seasonal item in Season 9, but gem fragments are a regular Diablo 4 material that has existed for a long time.
In fact, before Season 9, although gem fragments can also provide you with attribute bonuses by being processed into gems, they are not so eye-catching compared to the role of other powerful gear. Now the emergence of Horadric Jewels has obviously changed this situation.
Based on this, we will explain to you in detail why you should increase your efforts to farm gem fragments in Season 9, as well as the relevant farming methods.
Generally speaking, after finding a jeweler in Diablo 4, you can consume existing gem fragments to craft gems, and then embed them into gear according to the corresponding gear type of the gem to obtain benefits. And the higher the gem level, the better the benefit provided.
But the tricky thing is that if you want to craft the highest level of gems, you need to collect 100,000 fragments of a specific type! This is undoubtedly a long and torturous farming process.
Although low-level gems also have a certain role, if you want to unlock new levels for all low-level gems embedded in all gear later, you also need to consume a lot of materials and gold. Therefore, you will not choose gems or gem fragments as the first choice when looking for buff items.
In order to avoid gem fragments being ignored as much as possible, other seasonal jewelry that can be crafted and inlaid with gem fragments has been introduced in other seasons of Diablo 4, such as Occult Gems in S7, but it seems that none of them are as good as S9 Horadric Jewels.
First, to unlock Horadric Jewels in Season 9, you need to complete Horadric Strongrooms in Torment 1+ difficulties to obtain Horadric Tomes, and then consume it at Wayfinders to learn the crafting method of Horadric Jewels.
Next, you need to get enough Horadric Phials as the first material for crafting Horadric Jewels through the following methods:
The second Horadric Jewels crafting material is gem fragments, and we will introduce you to its specific acquisition method later. Now you need to know that crafting a Horadric Jewel consumes 45,000 gem fragments and 3,000 Horadric Phials.
It is worth noting that these 45,000 gem fragments must come from three different fragment types, which means you need to collect 15,000 fragments of each type.
Although it is also a lot of work to earn gem fragments for Horadric Jewels, it is at least easier than crafting grand-level gems, and the role that Horadric Jewels can play in Season 9 is no less than that of high-level gems.
In addition, in Season 9, the chance of you getting gem fragments is also improved, because in addition to the existing farming methods, this season brings more affixes to Nightmare Dungeon in the form of Escalating Nightmares.
When clearing Escalating Nightmares, you need to complete three built-in nightmare dungeons connected together, each with a corresponding affix effect, and can be carried over to the next dungeon.
Horadric Gem Reserve affix among these affixes allows you to get more gem fragments than usual when clearing dungeons, thus completing the accumulation of materials for Horadric Jewels crafting faster. This was not possible in other seasons before.
In addition to Escalating Nightmare Dungeons and the utilize related affixes already introduced, you can also obtain gem fragments in the following ways:
The above is the information about farming and utilizing gem fragments in Season 9. I hope it’s helpful to you. I hope you can craft Horadric Jewels you want as soon as possible!
July is about to be halfway through, and Diablo 4 Season 9, which was launched at the beginning of the month, is naturally in full swing. Although it did not bring more breakthroughs to Diablo 4 in 2025, it is still worthy of being your first choice for playing ARPG.
However, although the previous 2.3.0 PTR showed some problems, Season 9 was not fully adjusted when it was officially launched. Therefore, the first major patch of this season, 2.3.1, will optimize these issues and fix other bugs after it goes online on July 15.
Based on this, we will introduce to you what changes patch 2.3.1 will make to the seasonal content and class experience of Diablo 4 Season 9 based on known information.
As you know, based on the experience in the first half of the month, it is obvious that the best class in S9 should be Sorcerer or Spiritborn, and their main builds have become more powerful after combining with Horadric Spells.
In comparison, other classes are somewhat weak. If you choose to play them, you may encounter difficulties in accumulating Diablo 4 gold in the early stage, which will hinder your progress.
Therefore, in order to avoid this problem and ensure the overall balance of the game’s class experience as much as possible, patch 2.3.1 has enhanced all classes except Spiritborn. Some are aimed at skills, while others are gear represented by new unique items.
While Spiritborn remained unchanged in Season 9 of the base game, they have been buffed in Vessel of Hatred. If you have been playing DLC recently, you will notice the following changes:
From the above, it can be seen that Barbarian has received the most enhancements. This not only makes up for the long-term lack of interest in this class in Diablo 4, but also may cause a new dominant class competition in the second half of Season 9.
The main seasonal content of Season 9 is Horadric Spells. It can be used as a buff to bring more exploitable power to your characters and builds. At the same time, the game also sets up items such as Horadric Phials & Knowledge to help you upgrade this power.
In addition to the new power, Sins of the Horadrim also brings new dungeons Horadric Strongrooms and Escalating Nightmares. They are not only worthy of being explored, but also your main source of loot in Season 9.
Overall, the above mechanisms are working well, but there are also some minor issues. In order to give you the best experience in Season 9, patch 2.3.1 has made the following optimizations:
In addition, Forgotten Wisdom affix of Nightmare dungeons itself has also received exclusive adjustments. If you unlocked this affix while completing Escalating Nightmares, please note the following changes:
In addition to normal content optimization, major bug fixes are also one of the major features of the patch. Among the fixes that deserve your attention include:
Those are the main things to watch for in patch 2.3.1. It’s worth noting that after the patch is released until 10am on July 19, you can get Rogue transmog item Arbalest crossbow by watching any streamer play Diablo 4 for three hours on Twitch! Don’t miss it!
You may have discovered that Druid has not been sufficiently enhanced for several consecutive Diablo 4 seasons, so that his experience in the game is not as good as other classes, even in Season 9.
But this does not mean that Druid should be abandoned. At least, some players still like to play this class. Therefore, instead of complaining, you should find a way to make Druid play its power as much as possible.
To this end, in addition to mastering the basic class skills, you should also build your own Season 9 combat style as soon as possible through the best Druid leveling build in the early stage of the game, and Werebear Druid is a good choice.
Although Druid and this build will be partially limited by inherent mechanisms, fortunately, the addition of Season 9 seasonal power Horadric Spells can solve this problem well. Next, we will introduce the crafting plan of Werebear Druid to you in detail.
As the main class in Diablo 4, Druid can utilize 3 primary forms in combat, namely Human, Werewolf, and Werebear, and they all have their own unique skills. Werebear Druid build is undoubtedly based on Werebear form.
In contrast, the strength of this build is that it can output high damage, and the weakness is that it is slow, just like a real bear. But if your damage output is high enough, even if the speed is slow, it will not affect your Diablo 4 gold farming efficiency.
Like all Diablo 4 builds, the available skills of Werebear Druid are divided into active and passive. They work differently and the skill point allocation scheme is different.
In general, the damage source skills of this build are mainly active skills Pulverize and Trample, and the overpower and critical hits derived from this can further amplify this damage. Of course, it’s also important to upgrade your active skills in time:
I believe you should also have noticed that Innate Blood Howl brings you extra benefits through Werewolf form. This is because Druids don’t have to be limited to a single form, especially during leveling, and it’s important to combine them to achieve the best effect.
The right passive skills can not only increase your damage and survivability, but also provide bonuses when fighting poisoned enemies:
It should be noted that the passive choices of Defiance and Natural Disaster require you to obtain and equip Aspect Of The Ursine Horror, otherwise you cannot utilize them.
While these aren’t really a skill class, they’re Druid-specific buffs that only provide passive effects, so they’re only useful when paired with a good combination of skills. The best Spirit Boons for this build are:
Horadric Spells include Catalyst, Infusion, and Arcana, which provide additional bonuses in different ways, and as you progress through Season 9, you’ll unlock more spells and get more spell combination options.
If you want to provide targeted assistance to Werebear Druid Build through Horadric Spells, the following are worth prioritizing in combat:
First, when farming gear, since Werebear Druid will frequently trigger overpower in combat, you need to prioritize getting Maces that can enhance this effect. There are no fixed recommendations for other gear, just make sure they have the following types of affixes:
As for legendary aspects, in order to maximize the power of your passive skills, the previously mentioned Aspect Of the Ursine Horror is naturally indispensable. Other aspects worth having include:
They can greatly increase the power of Pulverize and enhance your survivability when you activate Grizzly Rage. Therefore, if you have the ability and time, it is best to farm all of them by clearing dungeons or killing bosses.
The above is the main way to craft the best Druid leveling build Werebear Druid in Season 9. If you insist on playing Druid in this season, this content should help you!
In any Diablo 4 season, the real challenge starts when you enter the endgame. This final stage not only means an increase in the quality and quantity of loot, but also more dangerous enemies.
Therefore, after entering the endgame, in addition to the information you already know about the current season, you should also master additional self-improvement abilities and knowledge to successfully pass the level.
It has been more than a week since Season 9 was launched. If you progress quickly enough, you should have entered or will enter the endgame of this season. Next, we will provide you with key suggestions to help you complete these endgame contents.
When facing stronger enemies, in order to ensure your own survival, in addition to improving your attack power, you should also improve your defense as much as possible from multiple aspects. For example, get stronger armor or improve your elemental resistance.
The first thing to do is to work hard to farm mythic and unique items, and in the process, you can also get more Diablo 4 gold to get more usable items for subsequent battles.
Some of these mythic or unique items are armor in themselves, while others can increase your defense and resistance through their affix effects or exclusive powers, improving your ability to fight dangerous bosses.
Incense is actually a craftable buff in Diablo 4. After utilizing it, you will gain the corresponding buff effect, which can be enjoyed by you and others around you who can access Incense.
All Incense in the game can be divided into Type I, Type II, and Type III, and the effects of each Incense are unique. Some of them can increase your armor or health to help you survive, such as Song of the Mountain or Reddamine Buzz.
When you are able to enter Diablo 4 Season 9 endgame, you should have reached the maximum level 60. After that, although you can no longer continue to become stronger through upgrading, Paragon board will provide you with additional ways to upgrade.
After that, you will get a Paragon point for each Paragon level you upgrade, up to level 300, which means you will get 300 Paragon points to unlock various nodes in Paragon system.
All nodes can be divided into four degrees of rarity: normal, magic, rare, and legendary, but all the main effect is to provide you with attribute/damage ability/defense ability bonus.
If you are confident in your damage ability, you can prioritize unlocking nodes that can ensure your survival. It should be noted that the path to unlocking Paragon nodes suitable for you will vary depending on your class.
Barrier is also one of the status effects that can be utilized in Diablo 4. It can block damage for you for a certain period of time, and sometimes this effect can even affect NPCs.
More specifically, the barrier can absorb damage from all sources for a certain period of time, up to a certain amount of damage. The sources of the barrier include the skills of the three classes of Barbarian, Druid, and Sorcerer, as well as certain item affixes.
It should be noted that currently other classes can only obtain the barrier ability through related items. Don’t confuse barrier with immune, which only provide full protection in a certain area for a certain period of time and cannot be removed.
Another skill that needs to be introduced is Earthen Bulwark, which can provide barrier effects for Druids. As you know, Druids are the weak class in Season 9, so any available help should be valued.
This skill allows you as a Druid to summon protective rocks around you to form a barrier, absorbing a certain percentage of your damage for a short period of time. However, to fully utilize it, you need 300 offering, and the relevant runes can help you.
As the exclusive power and item of Season 9, you should find ways to use Horadric Spells & Jewels to provide you with reliable assistance in all stages.
Among them, Horadric Spells uses three rich elements, Catalyst, Infusion, and Arcana, allowing you to create your own power with maximum freedom to protect yourself while attacking enemies.
Among them, the one that can bring you the protection is represented by Magic Arcana Bottled Wind. After summoning Catalyst, Bottled Wind will bring you a barrier, which is equivalent to 30% of your maximum health and lasts for 4 seconds.
On this basis, you can consume the obtained Horadric Phials and Gem Fragments to craft Horadric Jewels. Although the specific effects of different Horadric Jewels vary, except for possible negative effects, they can all increase your armor and elemental resistance, such as:
It should be noted that Horadric Jewels can only be socketed in jewelry and can only work after you equip Horadric Spells. In addition, you can only equip 1 Catalyst, 1 Infusion and 3 Arcanas in each battle.
The above are Diablo 4 Season 9 endgame survival tips we provide for you this time, I hope it can help your gaming experience. Thank you for reading.
After the nerfs in the first two seasons to achieve class balance, although now Spiritborn no longer has the outstanding advantages like it in Season 6 and DLC, it still shows extraordinary combat effectiveness in the latest Season 9 through new unique item.
According to the powerful thorn damage provided by Balazan’s Maxtlatl, you can output a lot of damage in Season 9 with the related Quill Volley, Rake or Poison Thorns Spiritborn builds, but the premise is that you can complete the character upgrade.
In fact, the utilization of most advanced builds and the unlocking of more game content are based on your character level reaching the maximum level. We have introduced you to several ways to upgrade in S9 before, and you should also master the appropriate leveling builds base on them.
Therefore, if you want to harvest more Diablo 4 gold and other rare rewards as a Spiritborn in the later stage of the game through more powerful builds, you need to master the appropriate leveling build in the early stage.
Unlike mature Spiritborn builds that emphasize thorns or poison damage, leveling builds focus on ending battles quickly to complete the upgrade, so Evade Spiritborn Build will be a suitable leveling choice.
This build is not only fast, but more importantly, it can well integrate the new power Horadric Spells brought by Season 9. And when you finish upgrading and transform to more advanced builds, the similarity between Evade and Rake Build will allow you to adapt faster.
For Evade Spiritborn Build, the choice of active and passive skills is equally important. The focus of active skills is the rotation order, and the passive skills are the allocation of skill points.
First, you should unlock the following active skills for this build:
The core idea behind this active skill set is to allow you to stab enemies and throw feathers while swiftly moving across the map, or more specifically, to utilize Evade and attack enemies while moving through Thunderspike.
The main damage skill is Storm Feathers, which you can activate when you reach level 15 and unlock Eagle as your main Spirit Hall. This skill causes you to fire feathers while evading, and Evade reset caused by Thunderspike will increase the frequency of feather firing.
This is exactly where Spirit Hall’s choice comes in. Eagle Spirit Hall is the best for this build, not only because it provides enough damage, but also because it can apply vulnerability to enemies, and your critical hit chance increases for every four meters you move.
If you want to focus on evading, you can also replace Concussive Stomp with other skills such as Armored Hide or Toxic Skin. You can also utilize Ravager in between attacks.
The rule of thumb for choosing passive skills for this build is to provide damage buffs and additional evade chance, and then it is best to upgrade them to the highest level in order of importance as soon as possible.
When allocating skill points to them, you can decide based on your actual combat needs, but if you want to ensure your survivability is reliable enough, prioritize the ultimate passive skill.
As an extra boost for Season 9, the right Horadric Spells can make the builds more powerful than usual. As you know, Horadric Spells include 3 elements, each with 10-20 options, and the ones suitable for Evade Spiritborn builds include:
The combination of Thunderous Particle and Celestial Surge can help you quickly clear enemy-dense areas represented by Horadric Storerooms to farm gold and XP.
If you replace Catalyst choice with Cosmic Anomaly, it will reduce the clearing speed while increasing the sustainability of the build. Invigorating Helix and Volatile Crystal and most Arcanas can improve your survivability.
Since the main damage source of this build is Storm Feathers, in order to trigger it more frequently, you need to improve the basic skills mainly based on Thunderspike, and the following legendary aspects can do this:
As for the choice of specific weapons or armor, please give priority to those that can provide the following attribute bonuses:
Also, although this build does not need to be played by runes, if you have the time to farm runes, CirGar and Cem ritual runes will be good choices. They can increase the critical damage of the build and allow you to refresh Evade more frequently.
The above is all you need to know about the craft Evade Spiritborn Build. If you are playing Spiritborn in Season 9, you might as well follow the guide to practice it in the game!
For each Diablo 4 season, which has not changed much from one to another, the exclusive seasonal powers, dungeons and items should be the most worthy of priority experience, and some items can only be obtained in seasonal dungeons.
In Season 9, the new dungeons include Horadric Strongrooms and Escalating Nightmares. Among them, Horadric Strongrooms is a limited-time micro-dungeon, the entrance is hidden in Escalating Nightmares, and completing it can get seasonal rewards.
Based on this, we will introduce you how to get the required Horadric Spell’s power or other seasonal items by completing Horadric Strongrooms.
As a limited dungeon in Season 9, you can find the entrance to Horadric Strongrooms in Escalating Nightmares or regular nightmare dungeons, but the premise is that you have to obtain Nightmare Sigil to unlock these two nightmare dungeons.
It is worth noting that Escalating Nightmare Sigil will unlock random affixes that can increase the difficulty of the game and earn you more Diablo 4 gold. Witchwater Nightmare Sigil is a guaranteed Horadric Strongrooms encounter.
Once you have unlocked a Horadric Strongroom, you can utilize Wayfinder to find its portal entrance more quickly, marked by special flashes and sounds nearby. But before entering the portal, you will need to defeat the surrounding enemies guarding it.
In addition to working hard to obtain the relevant Nightmare Sigil, you can also increase your chances of finding the portal by:
After entering Horadric Strongrooms, you need to activate Horadric Artifact Pillar and kill the enemies that appear to activate the ritual. After that, please continue to click on the pillars in the new room to generate more waves of enemies to earn more reward drops.
It is worth noting that the higher the game difficulty you choose, the more pillars you can choose, and you can activate as many pillars as allowed. In the end, you will get Horadric Attunement to redeem rewards by completing the dungeon.
In the process of clearing the dungeon, Arcana, a more important element in Horadric Spells, will also drop randomly. If you want to get as many of these drops as possible, it is recommended that you choose pillars that will generate additional ambushes to increase the density of monsters and thus produce more loot.
Among the selectable pillars, some have the effect of providing you with items that can be carried to increase the percentage of coordination, but it should be noted that if you utilize potions or dodge, the items will become invalid.
If you have fast builds and can manage them well with attunement buffs, you should be able to get the most attunement from each clear of Horadric Strongrooms.
You will also get more attunement from defeating larger monsters, or from killing bosses that spawn after reaching attunement level 3. If you interact with multiple pillars to form a circle, you can also get extra attunement from defeating monsters that spawn inside the circle, as well as a group of elite monsters.
Don’t forget to activate Sacrifice Shrines, too. They are similar to pillars, but more like side quests. Activating Sacrifice Shrines will spawn more enemies, and while defeating them will not directly drop Horadric Attunement, they will provide other rewards.
Arcana is actually a type of Horadric Spell, and there are 20 of them in three rarities, including magic, rare, and legendary. Arcana of different rarities are obtained in different ways:
Even if you unlock all the above rarities, the actual drop of these Arcanas is random. So if you want to get as many Arcana as possible, you can only keep farming Horadric Strongrooms. These Arcanas include:
In addition to attunement and Arcana drops, you can eventually get Horadric chests, and defeating the final boss of the dungeon will also reward you with a Grand Horadric Cache.
After opening these chests, you have a chance to get Horadric Phials and Horadric Tomes, and the more attunement you have before, the better the chest reward quality.
Horadric Phials can upgrade your Horadric Spells and can be used as materials for crafting Horadric Jewels together with gem fragments. Horadric Tomes will provide you with more of these two materials.
As for Horadric Jewels, you can think of them as additional benefits for Horadric Spells, which can further bring you benefits such as increased armor value and all elemental resistance, which is worth crafting!
If you think that the content we provide should be helpful for your experience of Diablo 4 Season 9 Horadric Strongrooms, please implement them one by one according to the suggestions! Thank you for reading!
