As you know, the seasonal power of Diablo 4 Season 9 is Horadric Spells. You can combine the three elements of Catalyst, Infusion and Arcana as needed to create your own unique power for Season 9.
At the same time, as a large and complete ARPG, every new gameplay launched by Diablo 4 actually hides an exclusive mechanism network behind it.
Take Horadric Spells as an example. In order to successfully utilize it to assist in combat, you also need to understand and obtain Horadric Phials & Knowledge. They belong to “Horadric” system, but their specific functions are different.
We have already introduced the combat functions of various Horadric Spells to you in other previous guides. What we want to tell you next is the relevant information about Horadric Phials and Horadric Knowledge.
As you complete seasonal quests or clear the new dungeon Horadric Strongrooms, you will unlock different Horadric Spells in addition to the basic Diablo 4 gold rewards.
All currently known Horadric Spells and how to unlock them are:
Catalysts
Infusions
Arcana
These spells have unique combat benefits, but as you progress through the game, both your character and your enemies will become more powerful, so Horadric Spells must be upgraded - and Horadric Phials are the only item that can do this.
To keep Horadric Spells available, most elite enemies or bosses in the world map will drop Horadric Phials after being defeated. But if you want to focus on farming, focusing on Helltides is your best choice in the early game.
Because Helltides contains multiple quests that drop Horadric Phials, and each is easy to do, you can maximize your farming efficiency in a short period of time. Specifically, they include:
However, as you enter the later stages of the game, Nightmare Dungeons and Horadric Strongrooms should be better sources of Horadric Phials. They will bring more high-rarity treasure chests through stronger enemies, and you can get more Phials after opening them.
In fact, all chests and caches you can get throughout Season 9 may bring Horadric Phials, including reward caches brought by increasing Horadric Knowledge.
As you know, its main function is to upgrade Horadric Spells. It should be noted that as you complete more game content, you will also get more Horadric Spells, but not all of them are suitable for your class/builds/game habits.
So after getting a certain amount of Horadric Phials, don’t rush to upgrade by them. Instead, after determining your Season 9 battle builds, prioritize upgrading Horadric Spells that are most suitable for you to avoid waste.
If Horadric Phials is the upgrade currency for Horadric Spells, then Horadric Knowledge is more like the reputation system of the entire Horadric mechanism. The increase of Horadric Knowledge can unlock more relevant rewards and seasonal tasks/stories for you in Season 9.
Compared with Horadric Phials, Knowledge is not a must-have for completing all seasonal content, but the rewards it provides can really help you. In particular, some reward caches will also have Horadric Phials.
First of all, it should be noted that Horadric Knowledge does not exist in the game as loot, so no matter how you get it, you will not receive a notification when you get it, and you will only see relevant prompts when it is upgraded.
At present, the channels for obtaining Horadric Knowledge in Diablo 4 Season 9 are basically the same as farming Horadric Phials (you can farm at the same time), mainly including:
In addition, while you gain some Horadric Knowledge by completing the above, you can unlock more seasonal quests, which can also bring you Horadric Knowledge.
Another way to gain Horadric Knowledge is to consume Horadric Phials to exchange. But to be honest, this method is not very practical, because upgrading Horadric Spells is the key role of Phials, and the rewards brought by improving Knowledge are not very prominent in comparison.
That’s all for this time. I hope this information can help you better master Horadric Spells in Season 9 to solve those tricky quests or bosses as soon as possible. Have fun!
Usually in any game type, except for the occasional popular game, most of the time the competition is formed by several top-level games in the type. In ARPG, the most intense competition in recent years undoubtedly comes from Diablo and Path of Exile series.
After Diablo 4 was launched in 2023, it seems to have more advantages, but since POE 2 was launched at the end of 2024, although it is still at early access stage, it still took away a lot of attention.
For Diablo 4, what’s worse is that the plan for the second DLC has also been postponed to 2026. Therefore, in 2025, Diablo 4, which has entered a flat period, has to face the competitive pressure from Path of Exile 3.26 and the continuous large patches of POE 2.
Coincidentally, the release time of Diablo 4 Season 9 is just between POE 3.26 and POE 2 patch 0.3.0 (not yet released). Based on this, we will analyze how Diablo 4 should deal with this crisis.
Although players have complained about the lack of novelty for several consecutive seasons, Diablo 4 still has not changed the basic mode of new season power + new boss + season-limited dungeon.
Fortunately, with a solid content foundation, the overall performance of Season 9 is not too bad even so: Horadric Spells brings new exploitable power, and Escalating Nightmares and Horadric Strongrooms provide more Diablo 4 gold farming options.
On the other hand, this season also optimizes the class experience as much as possible by adding new class-specific unique items and related patches, although there are still weak classes.
Based on the above and other performances, Season 9 may not be novel enough for Diablo 4 itself, but at least it is not a terrible season. However, it is hard to say for Path of Exile 1&2.
In the past, the first game of Path of Exile usually maintained a relatively stable league update frequency, but because of the focus on the development of POE 2, after the release of 3.25 league in July 2024, 3.26 was repeatedly postponed until June this year.
Fortunately, the returning Mercenaries of Trarthus league brings a lot of new content. Although there are bugs and QoL problems that make you dissatisfied, it is also a qualified Path of Exile league.
POE 2 early access was released at the end of last year, and patch 0.2.0 was launched in April this year-in fact, it had already fought with Diablo 4 Season 8 at that time, and the competition also included Last Epoch Season 2 at the same time.
Since 0.2.0 brings a lot of new content and a new class, Huntress, it poses an enormous threat to Diablo 4 Season 8, but it does not have an absolute advantage.
The reason 0.3.0, which will be launched around August 29, may be more worrying for Diablo 4 is that POE 2 will use this patch to launch Druid as a new class.
As a classic ARPG class category, most games will add Druid, and Diablo 4 and Path of Exile 1 both do so. Since the latter has many classes, Druid’s popularity seems to be higher in Diablo 4.
The tricky thing is that in recent seasons, for some reason, Diablo 4 has always intentionally or unintentionally ignored the development of Druid. Whether for fun or strength, you may not want to play this class in Season 9.
On the contrary, POE 2 had planned to launch Druid as a new class before 0.2.0 patch was launched, but it was abandoned because it was not yet perfected. Therefore, the new class in 0.3.0 is likely to be Druid.
Compared with POE 1, there are not so many existing classes in POE 2, and Druid is a new class, so it will definitely receive more attention. And given the average performance of this class in D4 S9, the focus shift from Druid fans will put pressure on D4 to lose players.
At last year’s Gamescom, POE 2 showed a 13-minute Druid game video. With the development and improvement of the game, POE 2 should show more related content at this year’s Gamescom, and the exhibition time is just before the release of 0.3.0 patch.
It can be imagined that if Path of Exile 2 Druid gameplay shown at that time is attractive enough, the next few months will be enough for Diablo 4 to “headache”.
Since the roadmaps of major games are fixed for the current year, Diablo 4 cannot add more new seasons or DLCs to compete with POE 2, but at least it can add new limited-time events to the existing Season 9 as an attempt.
In addition, according to the time calculation, Diablo 4 will launch Season 10 in September-October. At that time, it can optimize Druid to attract fans who have been diverted, or innovate the season mechanism to compete with Path of Exile 2.
To be honest, the competition between games is endless. No matter which side should not be troubled by the temporary lag, the important thing is to always focus on improving the quality of the game to retain loyal players.
In Diablo 4, there are not only a variety of ways to obtain gear, but also a variety of mechanisms to continue to improve the role of gear. Only when your gear is getting better and better, your builds and even characters can be strong enough to cope with the endgame.
In Season 9, the endgame content worth challenging mainly includes challenging lair bosses, Infernal Hordes, Pit of the Artificer, and two new dungeons. The ways to optimize gear are mainly Tempering and Masterworking.
Among them, the operating principle of Masterworking is to upgrade by consuming related materials to make the affix effect of gear stronger. However, as the progress deepens, the affix that can be enhanced is random, which may lead to unsatisfactory results of your gear enhancement.
So is this mechanism still worth utilizing in Season 9? We will introduce it to you.
Masterworking is an endgame crafting system in Diablo 4 that increases the value of existing affixes on specific gear through 8-12 separate upgrade levels, which can be performed at the blacksmith. Gear that can be made stronger in this way must be one of the following three types:
Based on this, items below level 800 can only be upgraded to level 8 through Masterworking, and items at level 800 can be upgraded to level 12. If it is below level 750, it is not suitable for Masterworking because the value is not great.
In general, the materials consumed for Masterworking include Diablo 4 gold, Obducite, Veiled Crystal and more, which will vary depending on the type and level of gear, but gold, Veiled Crystal and Obducite are required.
Most events and challenges in the game will drop gold, and the main sources of Obducite farming include:
Veiled Crystal can be obtained through:
Once you have enough materials, each level of Masterworking will increase the effect of all affixes of the item by 5%; every four levels will increase the effect of a random affix of the item by 25% - the required materials include:
It is precisely because of this “random” effect that the deeper Masterworking effect, the greater the risk. If the affix that is enhanced happens to be the least useful for the gear, you will lose a lot.
If you are not satisfied with the random affixes that are enhanced on the item after upgrading to Masterworking level 4, you can also re-roll the dice later by resetting the level.
Open the Blacksmith’s Masterworking tab and select the Reset Masterworking Ranks option to complete the level reset operation. The materials consumed in this process are:
Although the consumption is not small, if the current dice roll result is not good, you’d better reset the level as soon as possible. Of course, subsequent dice rolls are also not guaranteed, but at least you have gotten rid of a poor result.
Alternatively, you can choose to send unused Masterworked gear to the blacksmith for salvage, and all materials consumed when upgrading it except gold will be returned to you 100%.
Typically, a level 800 gear will have a 45% increase in all affixes, and its best affix may be increased by 75%, but if this 75% increase is eventually applied to a garbage affix, it will be a nightmare.
The higher the rarity of the gear, the greater its role in builds, and the more effort you put into it at the time, but a bad Masterworking dice roll result may make everything meaningless.
Although the risk is high, once successful, Masterworking can make your gear sufficient to cope with all endgame content and bosses, and help craft better builds, so this risk is worth taking.
Even if the final effect is not good, you can recover by resetting, although this will consume more of your efforts to farm gold and related materials.
Or, for safety, you can just keep Masterworking level of the gear at level 3 and not try the random dice roll afterwards. But this way, you will lose the opportunity to try to have top-level gear.
In general, although random affix enhancements are annoying, there is a minor possibility of enhancing the strength of your Diablo 4 gear to your surprise. Even if the risk is great, it is recommended that you continue to utilize Masterworking.
The above is the content about Diablo 4 Masterworking introduced to you this time, as well as the relevant suggestions on whether you should continue to utilize it in S9. I hope it will be enlightening and helpful to you. Thank you for reading.
In addition to seasonal content, Diablo 4 sometimes adds some new fixed mechanisms as optimization content for the entire game when updating the season. The closest and most representative one is the lair boss in Season 8.
This mechanism changes Diablo 4 gameplay, which has always required specific summoning materials to fight the relevant endgame boss to a direct challenge, but you must have lair keys to unlock the hoard that provides loot after the boss dies.
After entering Season 9, although you no longer need to kill lair bosses to obtain boss power, they are still the main source of Diablo 4 gold, Unique and Mythic gear. However, it is precisely because of this that not all lair bosses are worth challenging.
Based on this, this time we will introduce you to the bosses that are worth solving first in S9 according to the loot rarity, in order from high to low.
As a boss that returns to the game through D4S8, Belial first appeared in Diablo 3 and was eventually retained in Diablo 4. Although the threat he brings to you may not be as great as the new boss Astaroth in Season 9, he is still the first choice for farming Mythic items.
Although this boss is only at the initiate level, defeating him in Season 9 will give you a chance to obtain two new unique items through his hoard: Druid’s Rotting Lightbringer and Spiritborn’s Balazan’s Maxtlatl.
What’s more gratifying is that due to the low level, it is not difficult to obtain his lair keys or defeat him. It is more reliable if your shadow resistance is high enough.
Urivar has an even higher chance of dropping new unique items for you than Varshan, because his hoard may include Rotting Lightbringer, Balazan’s Maxtlatl, Barbarian’s Hooves of the Mountain God and Rogue’s Deathmask of Nirmitruq at the same time.
But the reason why he ranks behind Varshan is that you can only encounter him if you have Vessel of Hatred DLC, and his battle difficulty will be higher.
During the battle, Urivar will summon knights to continuously shoot fire at you according to the established trajectory, which requires you to have enough fire resistance, otherwise it will be difficult to defeat him.
As one of the classic Diablo 4 bosses, Andariel is still powerful after the game adds the lair boss mechanism and is classified as a greater level, so you can’t take her lightly.
Andariel can provide Season 9 loot including Shroud of False Death, Heir of Perdition, and Harlequin Crest, suitable for all classes. Pincushioned Dolls, which unlock her hoard, are obtained by defeating Lord Zir.
The danger of Andariel’s boss battle is that it includes a long battle line including 3 stages. During this period, she will use various powerful magic attacks. You must try to predict her actions as much as possible while ensuring that your resistance to multiple elements is maximized.
The loot list of this boss in Season 9 is basically the same as Andariel, and the battle process also has 3 stages. The difference is that Duriel is more difficult, so it is better to directly choose Andariel.
In all stages of the battle, Duriel will continue to attack you. Once you are hit, you will be poisoned or unconscious, making it easier to attack again. Therefore, facing Duriel, you must not only have the highest poison resistance, but also be fast and flexible enough to dodge every attack.
This boss is also exclusive to Vessel of Hatred. The challenge difficulty and loot provided are basically the same as Andariel and Duriel, so its priority is below the first two bosses.
Since the source boss of its lair keys is Urivar, if you decide to farm Urivar and get enough Abhorrent Hearts, then challenging Harbinger of Hatred may be a good option.
The main loot provided by this boss is the new unique items Hooves of the Mountain God and Deathmask of Nirmitruq. Its challenge difficulty is not high, and you can deal with it by mastering the boss’s attack pattern, but it is precisely because of this that repeated farming may become boring.
The common point between these two bosses is that they cannot drop new unique items, and the rarity of other loot is also relatively ordinary. Although the difficulty is not high, there is no need to waste time on them.
If your character strength is not enough for the time being, you can farm them to get temporary universal gear, but to be honest, their main role in Season 9 is to provide you with lair keys to unlock hoards of other bosses.
Only by obtaining enough corresponding lair keys can you get the final reward through lair bosses in Diablo 4, and different lair key drop channels are also different.
That’s the best order to challenge lair bosses in Diablo 4 Season 9, along with other information you should know. Thank you for reading.
In addition to the newly available Horadric Spells, the biggest highlight of Diablo 4 Season 9 should be Escalating Nightmares and the miniature dungeons Horadric Strongrooms hidden in them through related affixes.
Among them, Horadric Spells are the main gold farming assistant, the two new dungeons are the best sources of Diablo 4 gold in Season 9, and Horadric Strongrooms can also help you get more Horadric Arcana.
But to fully clear Horadric Strongrooms to maximize its value, you need to master some additional and more targeted tips instead of treating it as a regular Diablo 4 dungeon. Based on this, we will bring you relevant help.
First, to enter the dungeon, you need to get Nightmare Sigils with the associated affix to unlock Escalating Nightmares, and then follow the direction of Horadric Wayfinder to find the portal to Horadric Strongrooms.
There are usually guards at the portal, defeat them and choose Horadric Pillar buffs to continue to explore Horadric Strongrooms. After that, all you have to do is kill enemies to collect more attunement, so that the quality of the chests you finally get is better.
So, in fact, improving the clearing of Horadric Strongrooms is how to increase the attunement value you can get, which is closely related to your combat efficiency.
This choice is related to what benefits you can get in Horadric Strongrooms, and it cannot be changed later, so you must treat it carefully, especially those pillars that provide both benefits and disadvantages.
Generally speaking, if you can, it is recommended that you give priority to those pillars that only provide benefits. Although the benefits from the pillars which have both of buffs & debuffs may be better, they will also bring more dangers and cause additional losses.
Based on this, pillars that increase the frequency of enemy appearances or bring more Swiftness Motes will be the safest choice. They allow you to kill more enemies faster, farm a large amount of attunement in a short period of time, and these pillars have almost no negative effects.
In addition to Horadric Pillar, you will also encounter interactive shrines in dungeons. They work similarly to pillars, but the difference is that pillars provide you with additional benefits besides spawning enemies, while shrines can only increase the number of enemies.
If the pillars in Strongrooms you have currently unlocked provide wonderful benefits, then it is recommended that you don’t pay too much attention to shrines. Otherwise, you can consider activating shrines as appropriate.
If the first two tips are about the enemy settings, then the next thing you need to consider is the improvement of your own strength - the stronger your character is, the more enemies you can kill in the specified time and range.
Unless you are very good at playing a certain class, we recommend that you choose to play classes with additional advantages in advance in any Diablo 4 season based on the PTR or other information.
For Season 9, Sorcerer, Spiritborn, or the 2.3.1 patch-enhanced Barbarian are all good. On this basis, the following builds should play a greater role in Horadric Strongrooms:
S Tier
A Tier
B Tier
Among them, the reason why S tier builds are the top builds for clearing Strongrooms is mainly because they all have powerful AOE damage characteristics, which can clear a large number of enemies faster and allow you to gain more attunement.
As you know, the game difficulty levels of Diablo 4 include Standard and Torment, each of which includes 4 levels. Although you can enter Horadric Strongrooms at any difficulty, it is true that the dungeons above Torment 3 are the most valuable.
Because only when you enter the dungeon at Torment 3 or 4 difficulty, the available Horadric Pillars may spawn an additional demon boss with Tier 3 attunement, which can be defeated to gain a large amount of attunement.
This boss may be an elite enemy or a Butcher that appears randomly in the dungeon. Although it is more challenging, more attunement means that everything is worth it.
In the process of clearing the dungeon, you will get regular rewards such as gold, as well as special Horadric Arcanas and attunement.
More Arcana can enrich your Horadric Spells and builds, and enough attunement can improve the quality of Grand Horadric Cache you finally get.
After opening this cache, you will get Horadric Phials and Horadric Tomes, which will help you upgrade spells and craft Horadric Jewels, giving your Season 9 character more combat benefits.
If you haven’t obtained all Arcanas yet, or are short of basic resources such as gold, please follow the above suggestions to clear more Horadric Strongrooms as soon as possible! Good luck!
As you know, Diablo 4 will launch a new season every 2-3 months. Each season has its own new main storyline and related tasks (complete the tasks to advance the storyline), in addition to a series of seasonal mechanisms that can only be experienced in the current season.
For you personally, you may feel that this season is “over” after completing all the main content, but in fact, to truly experience all the seasonal mechanisms, you need to continue to invest more time.
In addition, each season the game will launch new welfare systems such as seasonal journey and seasonal blessings. You need to utilize new gameplay and build more battles to obtain the rewards brought by these systems to avoid waste.
In this way, you will inevitably have a question, that is, after completing the main content, what methods should be used to fully utilize the gameplay and rewards of the current season until the next season arrives?
Next, we will recommend you a few good ways to continue killing time in Diablo 4 Season 9 for this content.
Compared to other ARPGs of the same type, Diablo 4’s PVP gameplay seems to be relatively easy to be ignored, probably because the game has a rich number of PVE dungeons and events, and the team experience is also very good.
But in fact, the game’s PVP mode is also worth trying, especially when you are tired of the classic PVE content. Winning in PVP can not only get Diablo 4 gold and PVP gear, but also understand your shortcomings and continue to strengthen your character.
Generally speaking, the best zone to start PVP battles in Diablo 4 is Fields of Hatred. In addition to regular drops, you can also earn zone-specific currency Red Dust by winning PVP battles to exchange for exclusive mounts and mount armor.
Whether you decide to shift your focus to PVP gameplay or continue to farm resources in PVE events, the utilization of builds is a key factor in determining your win rate and the amount of rewards you get.
A build is composed of your class skills and multiple types of items, so there are countless combinations and ways to play it. Even if the build you use at the beginning of Season 9 is enough to support you to complete the main story, it may not help you complete all the seasonal goals.
Therefore, if you want to complete your seasonal journey and seasonal blessings before the end of the season, and expand your Paragon board by exploring more levels of The Pit as much as possible, you should continue to farm more gear or runes and other items.
The more and rarer items you get, the more possibilities you will have for crafting builds, and in the process of farming, you will also understand what kind of skill rotation + gear combination can optimize builds through combat experience.
In fact, this accumulation of builds crafting experience will not only help you complete Season 9 and get rewards, but also enable you to gain combat advantages faster in the next season or DLC.
As you progress deeper into the season and strengthen your character, you will tend to farm more rare gear, especially Mythics, which are one of the best assistants for you to optimize builds.
Although you may give up working on gear of this type because it cannot be carried over to the next season, all Season 9 Mythics you get can be used in Eternal Realm, making your farming experience in this realm easier.
Since Diablo 4 does not have a class conversion mechanism, you cannot experience the gameplay of different classes with the same character, but can only create new characters to choose new classes.
In order not to delay your main line progress, it is generally not recommended to create multiple characters at the beginning, because this will distract your attention, and in the end each character will not be strong enough, but you will not be able to get truly useful character experience.
But if you have completed the main line and other major content of Season 9 with the current character, you can create a new character according to your preferences, and complete the same seasonal events in different forms through related skills and builds.
In addition, if you get new Mythics through the previous suggestion, they can not only be saved to Eternal Realm, but also stored in your Seasonal Realm stash, allowing all your characters in the current season to utilize.
It should be noted here that Diablo 4 also has a hardcore gameplay, which is different from the character stash between the normal mode. The suggestions we give are all for the normal mode.
If you plan to give yourself a “vacation” before the next season arrives, instead of playing all the time, you may want to know when to start your vacation.
In addition to ensuring that all the main content of the season is completed, you can first use the completion of the seasonal journey as a reference standard. You need to get enough Smoldering Ashes in Season 9 to unlock all seasonal journey objectives rewards.
The second is to explore as many The Pit as possible. This dungeon has a total of 150 floors. Completing all floors and killing the pinnacle lair boss Belial will also allow your character’s Paragon level to reach the maximum level.
But to be honest, this is difficult to do, so if you want to take a break after completing the main line and seasonal journey, you can do it at any time. If you want to continue to struggle, please follow our suggestions!
Among the various types of Diablo 4 battles, boss battles are probably the most dangerous but also the most rewarding. Although the amount of loot they provide may not be comparable to various dungeons, the rarity is definitely higher.
For Season 9, except for the newly added Astaroth boss, you have already fought other bosses many times in the past seasons. However, since various mechanisms are adjusted almost every season, you can’t continue to apply the same tactics in S9.
In order to ensure that you can survive Season 9 boss battle as much as possible, this time we will bring you an updated Uber Lilith, also known as Echo of Lilith’s boss battle strategy.
The unlocking conditions of this boss battle require you to obtain Echo of Hatred quest in the quest log. The end of the dungeon represented by this quest is where Uber Lilith is located.
To get this quest, you must first complete all the main storylines of the current season, and then complete Capstone Dungeons so that the game difficulty can be set to world tier 4 (also the most difficult world tier), and then it will be unlocked.
Next you will see the logo of the quest on the map, travel to southwestern Fractured Peaks, and you will find the quest entrance next to Nevesk waypoint.
Entering the dungeon, you can first get Diablo 4 gold or other drops by killing some ordinary enemies. When you reach the end, you will face Lilith.
As one of the most dangerous boss battles in the entire Diablo 4, no matter which season you encounter Uber Lilith, you must be fully prepared before starting the battle.
First, you must make sure that your character level meets this boss battle requirements. If you are already at the maximum level, your Paragon board should be as complete as possible.
You need to craft a strong enough build to utilize in battle according to the class you play. The most important thing is that you’d better add seasonal power Horadric Spells to the build, which can bring benefits to your entire Season 9 journey as an additional help.
If you are not confident in your operation level, you can choose those classes that have an advantage in S9 as the first choice when choosing a class, such as Necromancer or Spiritborn, and make up for your own shortcomings with their outstanding advantages.
When equipping gear, in addition to ensuring that their level and rarity are high enough, it is best that they can also have the effect of targeting Echo of Lilith, especially since the boss battle has actually been adjusted many times after the season change.
At present, Lilith’s damage mechanism is not only deadly in itself, but also may add an effect that can increase damage to all its Blood Orb skills. If you want to successfully avoid Lilith’s Blood or Void Orbs, you need to ensure that the movement speed is high enough.
Therefore, when choosing gear, please first pay attention to those boots or amulets with movement speed affixes, such as boots with Tumbling implicit modifier, which can give you 100% movement speed after you dodge for one second.
In addition, defensive skills with immune effects such as Flame Shield can help you get out of trouble, and Elixir of Shadow Resistance II can further improve your defense, because Lilith’s main damage type is shadow damage.
Although you can challenge this boss when the difficulty is World Tier 4, but if you want to get better drops, it is best to start the battle in Torment 1.
This boss battle is divided into two phases. At the beginning of each phase, Echo of Lilith is full of health, but the coping strategy is different.
Throughout Phase 1, the boss will continuously release Blood Blisters and generate Blood Orbs around it, or wave abilities like Double Waves or Triple Waves. You need to make sure you are at the edge of the boss’s attack range to avoid these attacks.
Near the end of this phase, Lilith will summon Oppressors to assist her. Fortunately, these enemies are not difficult to deal with, so you should be able to transition to Phase 2 relatively smoothly.
As soon as this phase begins, the boss will immediately create 4 Blood Pools and continue to generate Blood Orbs that will debuff you. Keep alert and avoid them.
Next, Lilith will begin to destroy different parts of the boss’s platform. As she begins to destroy, you must stay on the platform until Blood Veins penetrate the remaining intact parts of the platform.
Once you see Blood Veins disappear, quickly move away from the platform that is about to be destroyed. The boss will then pull you towards her after the platform is destroyed, so be sure to pay attention to her movements.
As each part of the platform is destroyed, you will continue to reduce the boss’s health until everything is “zero”, and you have succeeded!
When you defeat this boss for the first time in Season 9, you will receive a Resplendent Spark. In addition to the usual gold and common items, Lilith can also drop Reins of the Bloody Liquid Steed - this is the only way to drop this mount.
That’s all about fighting Uber Lilith in Season 9. If you haven’t encountered her yet, this guide should help you be more prepared!
