News Tag: Diablo 4

Typically, the transition between seasons is the busiest time for Diablo 4 players, as you need to simultaneously experience the next season's PTR and wrap up the current one.

Thankfully, the two aren't mutually exclusive. The results of your efforts in the current season can be validated or carried forward in PTR or the new season, especially some new builds.

With this in mind, this time we'll introduce Lunging Strike Barbarian Build for Diablo 4 Season 10. Its strength lies in its simple control and powerful enough to decimate enemies and delve into dungeons in the endgame.

Assuming Barbarian isn't nerfed, this build is expected to remain available in 2.5.0 PTR and even Season 11. The difference lies in Chaos Perks being replaced by better new season mechanics.

Key Skills

As the name suggests, Lunging Strike is the core skill addition for this build. It generates Fury in addition to dealing physical damage, and attacks by dashing forward and attacking.

Later, you'll need to upgrade this skill to Combat Lunging Strike. This way, if you land a critical hit while using a skill, you'll enter a Berserking state, increasing your speed and damage output in combat.

All of these form the foundation for this build to work. Next, you'll need to unlock other skills with the primary goal of increasing damage reduction, distributing skill points evenly.

• Warpath: After gaining Overpowering effect, your damage output increases by 4% for 4 seconds.
• Endless Fury: All basic skills generate an additional 12% Fury, ensuring you always have enough Fury to consume.
• Imposing Presence: Grants you 5% additional maximum health.
• Martial Vigor: Increases damage reduction by 6% when encountering elite enemies.
• Belligerence: Attacking enemies with basic skills for 4 seconds deals additional damage.
• Outburst: Gain thorns and a maximum health increase. Tough as Nails: Increases the damage you deal to enemies with thorns and bleeding.

As you progress, you'll need to continually unlock more skills for this build, but your primary focus should be on increasing Fury generation or boosting damage and health.

It's worth noting that some gear, such as Shard of Verathiel or Hooves of the Mountain God, requires Fury consumption to achieve better combat effectiveness.

Hooves of the Mountain God, a Barbarian-exclusive piece of gear, not only generates additional Fury per second but also consumes Fury to deal with additional damage with basic skills.

While Masterworking in Season 10 didn't receive the same positive changes as in 2.5.0 PTR, it's still important to earn Diablo 4 gold and other materials to enhance gear through these mechanics to improve the overall effectiveness of your build.

How To Plan Your Paragon Board?

Paragon Board is the best way to continue improving your character after max level, so careful board planning can help you refine your build and further improve your overall combat effectiveness.

For Lunging Strike Barbarian Build, unlocking Paragon nodes remains crucial, focusing on consistently generating and utilizing Fury and managing it while Berserking for as long as possible to deal extra damage and maximize damage reduction.

• Wrath: Ensures you generate additional Fury when you land critical hits, and gains a critical hit damage bonus.
• Warbringer: For every 75 Fury you consume, you gain a 15% increase in maximum health.
• Blood Rage: Upon killing an enemy with bleeding damage, you have a 10% chance to enter Berserking for 5 seconds, increasing your damage by 45%.
• Challenger: Grants a 20% bonus to normal nodes within its radius.
• Carnage: If you land a critical hit while Berserking, your attack speed increases for 6 seconds.

You need to utilize all available Paragon Points to earn them. Just like unlocking skills, you should continue to develop your Paragon Board according to the core objectives we've outlined until you've used up all your points.

How To Choose Gear?

We actually recommended two suitable pieces of gear when we introduced skill builds. The advantage of Season 10 is that with the addition of Chaos Armor, you have more freedom when choosing your gear, without having to worry too much about slot placement.

So, while Ramaladni's Magnum Opus is a unique sword, you can obtain its Chaos Armor version and place it in any slot you want. This gear's primary purpose is to deal bonus damage by consuming Fury - a perfect fit for the crafting core of your build.

Other gear worth adding is Fists of Fate, which grants a chance to apply random crowd control effects and bonus damage, making enemies vulnerable and easier to eliminate.

It's important to note that Hooves of the Mountain God deals bonus damage by repeatedly casting basic skills until Fury is depleted, which then causes basic skills to deal with additional damage through slashing.

So, as you continue to add gear, you'll want to avoid weapons that prioritize consuming your Fury over Hooves of the Mountain God, otherwise they won't function properly and you'll waste a slot.

Season-Specific Chaos Perks

Every Season 10 build should include Chaos Perks. These seasonal mechanics are one of the easiest and most effective ways to gain additional boosts to your build, though there are limits on the number and types of perks you can carry.

For Lunging Strike Barbarian build, if you're too lazy to change your perks before each fight, we recommend prioritizing the following:

• A Beast Cornered: Increases your damage output by losing life.
• Raging Chaos: When you're at low health, you enter a Berserking state, and your core skills deal fire damage.
• Dual Threat: Casting a basic skill simultaneously grants you another basic skill on the target, dealing 50-80% more damage.
• Brown Over Brains: If you feel your character is too fragile and unsuitable for A Beast Cornered, you can opt for this perk instead.

You'll find that while the process of unlocking skills or Paragon nodes is lengthy, crafting and using the entire Lunging Strike Barbarian Build always maintains a clear core and purpose, preventing unnecessary frustration during gameplay.

We hope this introduction will enhance your Season 10 experience, and we wish you all the best in 2.5.0 PTR - which already started on October 21st!

If you've been playing Diablo 4 since at least the beginning of this year, you're probably aware that starting with Season 8, the game's most dangerous endgame bosses (also known as ladder bosses) have been fully upgraded to lair bosses.

This change isn't just in name; more importantly, the mechanics shift from gathering materials to summoning a boss to starting the fight, to allowing you to directly fight them, but you must first collect lair keys to unlock the boss's corresponding hoard upon victory.

To ensure you're getting the right lair keys, lair bosses are now divided into three different tiers: initiate, greater, and exalted. Higher-tier lair keys may require killing lower-tier lair bosses, while others can be obtained by completing regular Diablo 4 events.

The reason you should continue farming lair bosses in Season 10 is that they drop Unique or Mythic Uniques. While some may not be as powerful as Chaos Armor, the overall value is still worth the effort.

So how should you farm lair bosses in Season 10, and what tips should you keep in mind? We'll explain below.

Lair Bosses And Related Keys

There are nine lair bosses in Season 10, each with its own lair key and loot pool. While you can theoretically farm a specific set of lair bosses, you'll need to complete other gameplay or boss battles to obtain the keys needed to unlock their hoards.

One thing worth noting and encouraging is that after defeating an initiate lair boss, in addition to the higher-level lair keys, Stygian Stones will also drop. This item can be converted 1:1 into any desired greater lair key.

All lair bosses and the lair keys/Stygian Stone drops they can provide are as follows:

• Varshan (initiate): Required 12x Malignant Heart, drops Shard of Agony or Stygian Stone
• Grigoire (initiate): Required 12x Living Steel, drops Shard of Agony or Stygian Stone
• Beast in the Ice (initiate): Required 12x Distilled Fear, drops Pincushioned Doll or Stygian Stone
• Lord Zir (initiate): Required 12x Exquisite Blood, drops Pincushioned Doll or Stygian Stone
• Urivar (initiate): Required 12x Judicator's Mask, drops Abhorrent Heart or Stygian Stone
• Duriel (greater): Required 3x Shard of Agony
• Andariel (greater): Required 3x Pincushioned Doll
• Harbinger of Hatred (greater): Requires 3x Abhorrent Heart
• Belial (exalted): Requires 2x Betrayer's Husk

In addition to defeating low-level bosses, you can also earn specific lair keys by completing the following Diablo 4 events or gameplay:

• Malignant Heart: Whispers or Helltides
• Living Steel: Helltides Chests
• Distilled Fear: Nightmare Dungeons
• Exquisite Blood: Legion Events, Helltides, and World Bosses
• Judicator's Mask: Helltides, Whispers, and World Bosses
• Betrayer's Husk: Belial's Ambush

What Is Belial's Ambush?

Belial's Ambush is essentially an ambush that randomly triggers after defeating any initiate or greater boss, ensuring you have a chance to unlock Belial's hoard.

While this small Belial isn't as dangerous as a full-fledged boss, you must remain vigilant during the fight. During battle, it will attack you with a combination of blood and poison magic, requiring you to dodge quickly and carry gear with appropriate resistance.

How To Find Lair Bosses?

While you no longer need to collect summoning materials in advance, it's recommended to wait until your character level is high enough to handle endgame content before finding and challenging a Lair Boss.

You can find the corresponding lair boss on the map by its unique icon. Right-clicking it will teleport you to the boss and begin the fight. However, before doing so, you'll need to understand the boss's lair keys and drop information and find reliable allies.

Lair Boss Loot Patterns

First, all lair bosses have the potential to drop either Uniques or Mythic Uniques. These drops are categorized as general available to all classes, and gear specific to each class.

When you defeat a boss and receive your first Unique drop, it will be a class-exclusive item. If you obtain other Unique loot or defeat the boss later, your chances of receiving general or exclusive loot are equal.

In addition, it's recommended to complete the lair boss fight in a group, not only because it's more efficient, but also because each additional team member increases the boss's chance of dropping additional Unique loot by 33%.

Alternatively, you can increase the boss's loot drop rate by increasing the difficulty. Typically, at Torment 3 difficulty, the current lair boss will drop one additional Unique loot. At Torment 4 difficulty and with enough players, the boss may even drop seven.

Best Season 10 Lair Keys Farming Strategy

In addition to lair keys, you'll also need to complete other tasks to earn gold and other crafting materials. Therefore, it's not recommended to directly challenge initiate boss after entering the endgame. Instead, first obtain Undercity Tributes through Helltides.

To do this, you must first own Vessel of Hatred DLC, which qualifies you for entering and farming Kurast Undercity. You can then earn more Undercity Tributes by repeatedly defeating Blood Maidens in Helltides.

The more Tributes you use before entering Kurast Undercity, the greater the rewards you'll ultimately receive, significantly increasing your chances of obtaining lair keys by completing Kurast Undercity.

That's all you need to know before farming Diablo 4 lair bosses in Season 10. While you're doing the quests, don't forget to challenge the new boss Bartuc in Infernal Hordes to obtain Chaos Armor!

If defeating lair bosses to obtain Unique or Mythic Uniques on your own is too tedious or difficult, you can also trade safe Diablo 4 items at D4GOLD! Simply enter the name of the Unique item you want to instantly retrieve and buy it!

Although it's only been less than a month since Diablo 4 Season 10 officially launched, the development team has already begun preparing for a new round of Sanctuary Sitdowns for Season 11, previewing information about the new 2.5.0 PTR.

To be honest, this seems a bit rushed compared to the pre-release schedules of past seasons. After all, Season 11 is typically released in January of the next year, while pre-release Sanctuary Sitdowns typically take place only about a month in advance.

Therefore, we can speculate on two possibilities for this sitdown: either Season 11 holds special significance for Diablo 4 (such as being the final season), or further plans for the game in 2026 will be announced through this discussion stream.

Below, we'll combine the official information already released about Diablo 4 Season 11 Sanctuary Sitdown to provide you with an introduction and speculation.

When Will The New Sanctuary Sitdown Take Place?

Sanctuary Sitdown event for Season 11 and 2.5.0 PTR will take place on October 16th at 11:00 AM PDT, and the format will differ from previous events.

Before the release of 2.4.0 PTR, Diablo 4 switched from its traditional Campfire Chats, livestreamed on Twitch or YouTube, to a Sanctuary Sitdown, a Q&A format held on Discord. You had to join Sanctuary Discord group to ask questions.

This upcoming Sanctuary Sitdown will combine the two approaches. The development team will first broadcast live on Twitch and YouTube, announcing the next steps for the game through a conversation with the host, followed by an additional Q&A session in Sanctuary Discord.

What Does This Format Change Mean?

While it's still unknown what new Diablo 4 developments of this Sanctuary Sitdown will reveal, or how satisfied players will be, the combination of a livestream and Q&A will undoubtedly provide a more comprehensive answer to your questions about Season 11 or 2.5.0 PTR.

If you're familiar with or participated in Sanctuary Sitdown on August 14th, you'll know that it was quite restricted. You had to log in to Diablo Discord server and click "Interested" on Sanctuary Sitdown Event page to ask questions.

Furthermore, August 14th Discord Q&A didn't feature a recording or replay feature. This means if you missed it, you'll only be able to access relevant content through screen recordings or summaries uploaded by other players.

The upcoming 2.5.0 PTR Sanctuary Sitdown will initially feature a livestream similar to Campfire Chats, hosted by veteran ARPG player and creator Rhykker.

This means he'll ask more specialized questions, allowing you to gain key insights from the development team's answers. After the livestream, you'll have a clearer idea of ​​what you'd like to learn more about, allowing you to better utilize Q&A session.

This shift in format suggests that Diablo 4 development team is, at least for now, more attentive to player feedback and suggestions than before. It also suggests that the upcoming Sanctuary Sitdown may reveal even more content than before.

Will This Sanctuary Sitdown Preview Anything Else?

While this Sanctuary Sitdown is likely to focus on previewing and introducing Season 11 and 2.5.0 PTR, the content of both the livestream interview and Q&A will not be strictly limited.

Therefore, it's reasonable to assume that both the host and players will raise popular questions about the second DLC and the number of seasons Diablo 4 will have. However, how the developers will respond remains unknown.

The second DLC, originally scheduled for 2025, has been delayed to 2026. With 2026 less than three months away, it's honestly worth it to tease some information to pique player interest.

How To Get Twitch Drops?

Whenever Diablo 4 hosts a content preview livestream before a new season or PTR, and Twitch is included, you have a chance to receive a drop - usually new gear or cosmetics - by watching the livestream on Twitch.

Twitch Drop for Sanctuary Sitdown on October 16th is Rogue class-exclusive, one-handed cosmetic Penitent's Poniard. To receive it, you'll need to meet the following requirements:

• Watch at least 30 minutes of exclusive Diablo 4 content on Twitch between 11:00 AM and 2:00 PM PDT on October 16th.
• Link your Battle.net and Twitch accounts.
• To claim the drop, watch through a PC browser, Android, or iOS Twitch app.
• Claim your rewards manually on the livestream's Twitch channel or through your Twitch inventory (rewards will not be automatically added to your game account).
• Claim your rewards within 7 days and ensure they are successful, otherwise the drop will be lost.

This concludes our understanding of the new Sanctuary Sitdown. Since the livestream will take place mid-week next week, if you don't have time to watch, you can watch the replay or other people's summaries to get a head start on the next PTR.

While staying up to date on game developments is important, now your primary focus in Diablo 4 Season 10 is still farming! This is especially important if you want to become stronger or unlock enough hoards for the lair boss.

To this end, D4GOLD Buy Diablo 4 Items page provides nearly every item you need for Season 10, ensuring a secure and convenient shopping experience!

As you enter a new season in Diablo 4, you need to quickly acquire rare and powerful gear to ensure your character is strong enough to face more dangerous enemies and challenging content.

In Season 10, while Chaos Armor is a valuable seasonal item for quickly boosting your combat power, classic mythic items are still worth farming. They boast 800 item power and come with at least one high-level affix, significantly improving their stats.

So, with Chaos Armor so popular in Season 10, what are the best ways to obtain mythic items? This time, we'll introduce the four most efficient methods.

1. Defeating Echo Of Lilith

In addition to direct drops, mythic items can also be crafted by consuming Resplendent Spark as a material at a blacksmith or jeweler.

To ensure you have enough Resplendent Sparks, there are many ways to obtain them. Defeating the boss Echo of Lilith on Torment difficulty is one such option.

However, it's important to note that you can only obtain one Resplendent Spark per season by this way.

As one of the most dangerous bosses since Diablo 4's launch, Lilith presents a challenge every season, but as long as you master her attack patterns and power up as much as possible, obtaining this Resplendent Spark is easy.

First, you need to travel to the southwestern Fractured Peaks to complete the quest Echo of Hatred. Once you obtain Lilith's lair keys, you can begin the boss fight to unlock the final loot (this is a mechanic change from Season 8).

The fight is divided into two phases, each with Lilith's health bar at full strength. In general, during both phases, you should aim to increase your movement speed to avoid being hit by Blood Orb abilities and also increase your Shadow resistance.

Phase 1

During this phase, Lilith will generate Blood Orbs through Blood Blisters. To avoid them, you must stay within the boss's attack range. If you are hit, you will be inflicted with a stacking debuff.

In addition, the boss will unleash several wavelike abilities during this phase. You must remain vigilant and observe their movements to dodge them. Towards the end of this phase, the boss will summon Oppressors to assist her, which you must destroy.

Phase 2

At the beginning of Phase 2, the boss will create four Blood Pools and continue to generate Blood Orbs. She will then gradually destroy three sections of the platform that serve as the arena: the top third, the top right corner, and the top left corner.

As she begins to destroy the platform, you must move away from the affected section, avoid damage from Void Orbs generated by Blood Pools, and prevent the boss from pulling you towards her after destroying the platform.

After defeating Lilith in Phase 2, you will receive loot, one of which is Resplendent Spark.

2. Obtaining The Final Season Journey Rewards

To ensure you have a purposeful approach to your gameplay and a clearer focus for your efforts, Diablo 4 introduces a Season Journey system for each season. This system assigns various objectives based on the main storyline, and rewards are awarded upon completion.

The rewards for the final chapter of Season Journey typically include a Resplendent Spark, which you can use to craft a mythical item of your choice.

In Season 10, Season Journey chapter that rewards you with Resplendent Spark is Destroyer Chapter. By completing the objectives for this chapter, you can earn the following cache rewards:

• Challenge Journey Cache from Lootmaster
• Challenge Journey Cache from Chaos in Hell
• Challenge Journey Cache from Entropy
• Challenge Journey Cache from Bloodstained Chaos
• Challenge Journey Cache from Mastery Maker
• Challenge Journey Cache from With Sand to Spare
• Challenge Journey Cache from Pinnacle of Chaos

Complete all objectives within the chapter to earn the following rewards:

• Guardian of the Sanguine Grove (Emblem)
• Chaotic, Warlord (Player Titles)
• 1 Resplendent Spark
• 4 Smoldering Ashes

3. Farming Mythic Chaos Rifts

Chaos Rifts are a seasonal event exclusive to Season 10. Farming them will yield a variety of rare loot, including Chaos Armor and Chaos Perks. Chaos Rifts come in four different rarities, with higher rarity yielding better rewards.

The raciest are Mythic Chaos Rifts, and each one you complete guarantees a mythic item drop. Of course, the chance of these Chaos Rifts appearing is also very low, requiring you to repeatedly farm Helltides or Nightmare Dungeons to find one or two.

When a Chaos Rift icon appears on the mini-map, hover your mouse over it to view detailed information about the event. If it's mythic, you can then travel to the designated location and kill the enemies surging from the rift to obtain loot.

4. Obtaining Infernal Chests

In Season 10, when you farm Infernal Hordes, in addition to the chance of receiving loot during combat, you can also exchange Infernal chests by Burning Aether, a special currency you collect. Opening these chests also has a chance of receiving mythic items.

To maximize farming efficiency, we recommend teaming up with friends and completing the challenge on Torment 1+ difficulty.

In addition, Infernal Hordes is a wave-based game mode. Before each wave begins, you can select an Infernal Offer, which provides a random bonus (either positive or negative).

Season 10 introduces Chaos Waves as the fourth offer, which have random effects and are very beneficial for collecting Burning Aether. You can also take advantage of this opportunity to obtain more Infernal chests and increase the drop rate of mythic items.

This concludes the guide to obtaining mythic items or crafting materials in Diablo 4 Season 10. I hope it helps you complete the season! Have fun!

If you're having trouble finding the mythic items you're looking for, or if farming Resplendent Spark is too difficult, searching for the mythic items you need on D4GOLD Buy Diablo 4 Items page will also help you find what you're looking for!

In addition, if you want to buy more Diablo 4 gold as a currency reserve, or want to learn more about Diablo 4 information and game guides, D4GOLD will also provide related services!

If obtaining as much loot as possible as a foundation for leveling up your character in the new season is one of the most important tasks in Diablo 4, then new unique items are arguably the most valuable type of loot.

To enrich the game and your build crafting possibilities, Diablo 4 has been adding new unique items for several consecutive seasons, and the latest, Season 10, is no exception.

However, what makes this season special is the addition of Chaos Armor, which adds unique "chaos" effects to most available unique items, making them even more powerful than before. This includes six new unique items.

We'll introduce these six new pieces of gear and how to obtain them in Season 10.

1. Barbarian - Sabre Of Tsasgal

• Inherent: +50% Damage
• +107-121 Strength
• +62.5-85% Physical Damage
• +2-3 Core Skill Ranks
• +2-3 Warpath

This item is a one-handed weapon with a unique affix that grants a 3-5% damage bonus for each damaging skill equipped, and an additional 6-10% bonus for 15 seconds when using a skill.

While the base bonuses to core skills and Warpath are useful, if you've played Barbarian, you'll know that the class primarily relies on a few offensive skills and the defensive Shout skill, making Sabre of Tsasgal somewhat useless.

If you want to play this class and plan to fight with a one-handed weapon, you can farm other weapons to gain a truly useful damage bonus.

However, if you obtain this item by defeating the boss Varshan or clearing Chaos Rifts, you can keep it until you obtain a more powerful weapon like Shard of Verathiel or Ramaladni's Magnum Opus.

It's worth noting that all unique items that can be used as Chaos Armor, except for those obtained by farming specific lair bosses, can also be obtained through loot from Chaos Rifts.

2. Druid - Kilt Of Blackwing

• +636-685 Maximum Life
• +2-3 Ranks to Ravens
• +13-17.5% Ravens Cooldown Reduction
• +16-25% Chance for Ravens to Deal Double Damage

This unique pair of pants is arguably the most intriguing new unique item in Season 10, as it successfully restores Druid to dominance. It can be obtained by farming the boss Beast in the Ice.

Beyond its base stats, this gear also increases the damage dealt by your summoned ravens by 60-100%, allows them to transform into different forms and summon an additional raven.

More importantly, summoned ravens have a chance to trigger Unkindness for 10 seconds, increasing the number of ravens you can summon to three.

In short, Kilt of Blackwing maximizes the effectiveness of Druid's raven ability by increasing damage and reducing its cooldown. And if you use it as Chaos Armor, you can create an unparalleled Druid Companion build in Season 10.

3. Necromancer - Gospel Of Devotee

• +80-94 Intelligence
• +424-457 Maximum Life
• +4.4-10% Basic Skill Attack Speed
• +13-17.5% Chance for Basic Skills to Deal Double Damage

This focus also enhances your basic skills, increasing the damage dealt to enemies by 10-30% for 10 seconds. These skills include Reap, Decompose, Hemorrhage, and Bone Splinters.

On its own, Gospel of Devotee is more of a basic skill modifier and less impressive. However, if combined with Grim Reapers Chaos Perk, it can be powerful thanks to Reap's increased attack speed.

To obtain this gear, focus on farming the bosses Urivar and Varshan. The higher the difficulty you enter the encounter, the higher the chance of it dropping.

4. Rogue - Orphan Maker

• Inherent: +130% Vulnerable Damage
• +4-6 Ranks to Marksman Skills
• +2-4 Ranks to Exploit
• +32-45% Chance for Marksman Skills to Cast Twice
• +125-170% Vulnerable Damage

This two-handed crossbow perfectly reflects Rogue class's high mobility and agility. A possible drop from Lord Zir is this item. Using this weapon reloads your basic and core skills, increasing their damage by 250-300%. Each reload doubles the bonus.

While this damage bonus is significant, it also comes with a slower casting speed. If you choose to use this weapon, consider pairing it with other skills with shorter cooldowns, or simply choose a higher-powered weapon instead - new isn't always best.

5. Sorcerer - Galvanic Azurite

• Inherent: 12.5% ​​Resistance to All Elements
• Inherent: 5% Resistance to All Elements
• +5.2-6% Critical Strike Chance
• +57-75% Lightning damage
• 8.1-8.8% Cooldown reduction
• +2-3 Ranks to Elemental Synergies

This ring's unique affix magnetizes enemies with lightning damage for 4 seconds, increasing their lightning damage taken by 40-60%. The enemy then emits Crackling Energy, attracting another magnetized enemy.

Hydra Sorcerer build, which was strong in Season 9, has somewhat underperformed in Season 10, but the lightning damage bonus from Galvanic Azurite has helped offset any potential declines. Additionally, Harbinger of Hatred and Belial are likely to drop this gear.

6. Spiritborn - Hesha e Kesungi

• 10.5-15% Attack Speed
• 46.5-60% Vulnerable Damage
• 15.5-20% Ultimate Cooldown Reduction
• 3-5 Gorilla Skill Ranks

These gloves also allow you to summon The Protector from a distance and use its shatter to pull enemies inward. Enemies within range then take 30-50% increased damage from Gorilla's skills. If you're downed or a boss, your damage is doubled.

This gear can be obtained by farming Grigoire and Urivar. Compared to Spiritborn unique items from previous seasons, Hesha e Kesungi is more subdued overall, focusing on finding a balance between attack and defense.

Above is the main information about all the new unique items added in Season 10. You can try them out, or opt for more damaging gear to advance faster. It's up to you!

If you're having trouble getting a new unique item drop, it's more convenient to buy it directly from D4GOLD items page! And if your gold inventory is low, you can find Diablo 4 gold for sale at D4GOLD too. We always offer comprehensive Diablo 4 game services!

Each season, Diablo 4 introduces a seasonal reputation system as a bonus. If you're not good at planning, you can progress through the reputation system's quests and objectives, earning rewards while advancing through the season.

Each season's Reputation System is given a unique name based on the current season's characteristics. In Season 10, which launched on September 23rd, the reputation system is called Viz Jaq'taar Veneration.

So, how can you accumulate enough Reputation Points in Season 10 to unlock higher levels and earn rewards? We'll explain.

How To Unlock Viz Jaq'taar Veneration Reputation System?

As part of a new season, after completing your Season 10 character creation, you must first complete some pre-requisite quests to unlock the various new mechanics and systems of that season before you can begin exploring.

If you want to start farming Season 10 reputation points, you'll need to complete Sands of Chaos questline first.

Here are the steps to complete this questline. Once you open your reputation board, follow the steps. You'll then unlock and work towards Viz Jaq'taar Veneration reputation ranks.

• 1. Travel to Dry Steppes region, find Farnum in Ked Bardu, and speak with him.
• 2. Travel north of Ked Bardu and kill the nearby Chaos monsters.
• 3. Speak with the nearby stranger, then find Yeslena in the far east and speak with her.
• 4. Complete the quest. Open your reputation board to start farming reputation and view your progress in real time.

Method 1: Prioritize Clearing Chaos Rifts

As Season 10 seasonal event, Chaos Rifts not only provide the primary source of crafting materials and Chaos Perks/Armor, but also contribute to Viz Jaq'taar Veneration reputation.

To complete this event, you need to be constantly aware of rifts spawning while completing Helltides and Infernal Hordes, or you can use Chaos Rifts affix to enter and clear Nightmare dungeons.

When Chaos Rifts appear, hordes of monsters will swarm out of the rifts. Your goal is to kill them, claim the loot, and then destroy the portal to seal the rifts.

This event will appear as a small black portal on the map. Whether you're completing Helltides, Infernal Hordes, or Nightmare dungeons, if you spot a Chaos Rift, it's crucial to complete it immediately, or you'll miss out.

Method 2: Clearing Helltides

While Helltides aren't your primary source of seasonal power or items, they are a great way to earn reputation points. Helltides spawn randomly in the open world every five minutes, and you have one hour to complete them.

Once you've reached a certain threshold of monsters killed and reward chests opened, a red progress bar will fill up on the screen, unlocking a new level. Enemies and bosses encountered later will also be more dangerous.

It's generally recommended to enter the challenge with a teammate, as this will increase your chances of survival and farming efficiency. It's also worth noting that reward chests are unlocked by collecting Aberrant Cinders from battles.

Method 3: Clearing Infernal Hordes

This endgame event requires you to complete approximately ten waves of normal battles, then defeat three members of Fell Council or the new boss, Bartuc, to earn rewards.

You earn Burning Aether during all battles, and after the current Helltides ends, you can consume Burning Aether and exchange it for Spoils of Hell chests of varying types and rarities. You'll also gain Viz Jaq'taar Veneration reputation.

If you want to earn more reputation in Infernal Hordes all at once, it's recommended to enter the event at a higher difficulty level so you can earn more rewards by challenging the more challenging content.

Method 4: Entering Nightmare Dungeons With The Special Affix

After unlocking and completing Chaos Rifts through other means, you may receive Nightmare Sigils with Chaos Rifts affix. These can transform normal dungeons into Nightmare dungeons filled with Chaos Rifts for you to farm.

In addition to reputation points and other regular rewards, more importantly, you can earn Obducite from these dungeons, which can be used to Masterwork your gear and make it more powerful.

If you find it difficult to get Nightmare Sigils or are running low, it's recommended to prioritize clearing Helltides to unlock more Chaos Rifts and obtain the sigils they drop.

Method 5: Obtaining Warp Scrolls From Shyan

Infernal Warps are a special currency that drops when you farm Chaos Rifts. They are primarily used to upgrade your Chaos Perks. However, if you have extra Infernal Warps, you can travel to Yelesna and find Shyan to exchange them for Warp Scrolls.

Using these scrolls will grant you a small amount of Viz Jaq'taar Veneration Reputation. However, it's important to note that upgrading perks is always a primary task, and this method is not recommended as your primary method of reputation farming.

What Are The Rewards For Viz Jaq'taar Veneration Reputation?

Currently, there are 24 known tiers of reputation rewards for Season 10, with the highest tier reward being Resplendent Cache. While obtaining all the rewards requires a significant amount of reputation, it's achievable with diligent completion of season quests!

While you may need to adopt new builds as Diablo 4 season updates adapt to changing mechanics and gameplay, some builds can perform well across multiple seasons - provided they're properly updated.

As the youngest class in Diablo 4 to date, Spiritborn has no fewer build options than other classes due to its refined mechanics. As a result, you may be unsure which Spiritborn build to play in Season 10.

To this end, this article will introduce updated crafting options for the classic Evade Spiritborn build, making it still viable and even more powerful in the new season.

Evade Spiritborn Build Overview

This build has three key characteristics: a short primary skill cooldown, high damage output, and ease of use. This is because every three Thunderspike casts reduces Evade's cooldown by 5 seconds, and Evade is available as long as you reach level 15 or above.

This means that even if you haven't completed character leveling, you can still continuously attack enemies by using Evade and Thunderspike, creating a near-constant, high-damage streak.

More importantly, this build isn't overly reliant on Mythic Uniques. Even with just the most basic gear, as long as it's the right gear, combined with Season 10 Chaos Perks and Armor, you can quickly reach the endgame in Season 10 with this build.

Notably, if your Evade runs out, you can add specific Chaos Perks to reduce or reset its cooldown, which is a major reason and advantage for this build to be updated in Season 10 and continue to be used.

Season 10 also introduces changes to Eagle Hall. Now, casting Eagle skills will also trigger Storm Feathers. Thunderspike is an Eagle skill, so this will still work, just not as quickly.

How To Choose Chaos Perks And Armor?

As the key update for Evade Spiritborn build in Season 10, Chaos Perks and Armor are the areas you should focus on. By diligently farming Chaos Rifts at higher difficulties, you'll have a chance to gain the benefits you're looking for.

For Evade Spiritborn build, there are three essential base Chaos Perks:

• Alacrity: Resets Evade cooldown faster.
• Accelerating Chaos: Reduces cooldown.
• Marred Guard: Increases armor and barrier generation.

In addition, you can also carry a unique perk per battle. A Beast Cornered works well with the above three perks, increasing your damage by 100% when Marred Guard limits your health to 50%.

Of course, these three base perks aren't irreplaceable. If you've acquired the following two perks, you can use them interchangeably:

• Erupting Chaos: Creates a Chaos Burst, accelerating cooldown reduction.
• Brawn Over Brains: Increases your maximum health (choose this if your character is vulnerable to damage).

Note: As you farm these perks, you may earn Infernal Warp, a special currency that can be used to upgrade perks, making them even more powerful.

As for Chaos Armor, the two essential items and their corresponding functions are:

• Wushe Nak Pa: When used as gloves, boots, or a helmet, it increases the damage dealt by Eagle Main Hall.
• Loyalty's Mantle: Serves the same purpose as Wushe Nak Pa, but also increases the cooldown of The Seeker.

Other Chaos Armor worth having includes:

• Jacinth Shell
• Harmony of Ebewaka
• Band of First Breath
• Sepazontec
• Locran's Talisman
• Fists of Fate
• Sunbird's Gorget

It's important to note that no matter how you choose and equip Chaos Armor, don't replace Tenacity with Chaos Armor, and be sure to place Tenacity in defensive slots to improve your resolve and increase damage.

How To Choose Skills?

Evade is undoubtedly the core of the entire build. Thunderspike builds on this by granting Vulnerability while reducing Evade's cooldown with three casts, allowing it to deal damage more frequently.

In addition, Armored Hide not only grants Unstoppable and Resolve, but also provides 100% block chance and grants the full damage bonus of Redirected Force. Other essential skills include:

• Counterattack: Increases your critical hit damage based on the number of nearby melee enemies.
• The Seeker: As an ultimate skill, it grants you a permanent critical hit while active. While using The Seeker, it also activates Resolution and Supremacy.
• Frosty Strides: When you equip Chaos Perk Marred Guard, each evasion freezes enemies continuously.

Which Spirit Halls Should You Choose?

As you know, Spiritborn characters can unlock both primary and secondary Spirit Halls. For this build, Eagle is naturally the best primary Spirit Hall, as it grants Lightning and has been updated to help you trigger Storm Feathers.

As a secondary Spirit Hall, we recommend Gorilla, especially once you reach Torment 1+ difficulty, as it grants Unstoppable and additional damage.

Note: If you equip Loyalty's Mantle, Eagle Spirit Hall is also a good secondary choice, as it increases Vulnerable damage and reduces The Seeker's cooldown.

What Should Be keep In Mind When Unlocking Paragon Nodes?

Around Paragon 200, your leveling will slow down significantly as most important clusters, nodes, or glyph slots are unlocked. At this point, if you'd like to continue fine-tuning your Paragon board, you can make minor adjustments and pick up additional small nodes.

Also, as you reach your full potential, changes such as glyph placement swaps or pathing adjustments may occur. The default setup at this point is the final version before consuming additional points, and these won't significantly affect your power.

These are the main methods for updating Evade Spiritborn Build in Season 10 to make it more useful. If you like this build and plan to continue using it, our suggestions will help!

As you upgrade Evade Spiritborn Build and battle through it, you may need to consume gold to acquire additional gear or enhance and repair existing gear, and sometimes farming alone may not be enough.

For this reason, it's quick and safe to buy Diablo 4 gold directly from D4GOLD to meet your gold needs. In addition to gold for sale, you can also find many other rich Diablo trading services here, which will definitely make you come back with a lot of rewards!

Season of Infernal Chaos, the final new Diablo 4 season of 2025 and the series' tenth, finally launches on September 23rd! Over the past two weeks, you should have learned about most of the features of this season through various channels.

With that in mind, when you first enter Season 10, your first step is to create your character and choose a class based on your personal preferences or the season's power rankings. Then, you can begin your Season 10 adventure!

Of course, in Diablo 4, it's best not to aimlessly explore like you would in a Zelda or similar game. Instead, you should immediately develop a leveling and farming plan to quickly earn enough XP and Diablo 4 gold to enter the endgame.

To help you quickly earn enough XP, we will recommend leveling builds for different classes, allowing you to quickly unlock Torment difficulty and transition to the true endgame builds for your more advanced adventures.

Note that some of the leveling builds we're introducing here are specific, others are crafting strategies, leaving you with a lot of flexibility. Feel free to customize your builds based on our suggestions.

Necromancer

This class primarily deals damage by summoning minions like skeletons or golems. The more minions you have, the greater the damage.

Thus, to level up and kill enemies as quickly as possible, start by pairing Grim Harvest with Corpse Explosion to easily restore Essence and offset some boss damage.

Then, energize your skeleton warriors, mages, and golems, and replace Army of the Dead with Soulrift, as the latter quickly restores Essence, allowing you to kill more.

As for gear choices, we recommend Aspect of the Frenzied Dead, which increases your attack speed and applies with your first Paragon points. Next up is Aspect of the Damned, which increases your damage by an additional 55%.

If possible, it's also recommended equipping Reaping Lotus Aspect, which increases your Execute damage by 480%.

As for available Chaos Perks, it's difficult to list specific perks that become available as your character levels up, as obtaining them requires farming numerous Chaos Rifts and constantly consuming exclusive currency to upgrade them.

Our advice is to equip any Chaos Perks you encounter during leveling, and upgrade or replace them with more suitable ones, regardless of your class.

Druid

Druid has regained its dominance in Season 10. The optimal leveling build should initially include Pulverize, Ravens, and Boulder.

Pulverize is particularly useful. By combining it with Aspect of the Ursine Horror and Aspect of Quicksand, you gain unlimited resource generation in combat.

If you also have Blood Boiling Aspect, you can create devastating explosions across the map to inflict devastating damage on enemies. Additionally, you gain additional overwhelming power by performing a provocation node every 10 seconds.

After unlocking the first Paragon points, the best choice is Ancestral Guidance, as it increases your damage by 40% for 5 seconds after consuming 75 Spirit.

Sorcerer

It's important to note that choosing a leveling build for this class is best aligned with your endgame build plan. The optimal Sorcerer endgame build for Season 10 is expected to be Ball Lightning or Hydra.

If you plan to add Ball Lightning to the endgame, it's recommended to upgrade to Chain Lightning. It's simple and effective, bouncing between targets and dealing damage.

However, to make this build work, you must constantly recharge it. Each Chain Lightning bounce grants you 2 mana, giving you a 45% chance to chain five more times, resulting in additional mana regeneration.

If you choose Hydra, it's best to utilize it right from the leveling stage. This build not only deals massive damage against single targets, but also synergize with Familiar to gain more summons, bonus summon damage, mana regeneration, and movement speed.

Rogue

While Rogue isn't a powerful class in Season of Infernal Chaos, leveling it isn't difficult. If you're too lazy to explore new leveling builds, you can simply utilize Dance of Knives Build.

This build's incredible speed and unique mobility allow you to quickly dispatch enemies in the early stages, earning XP. You can also continually upgrade the build to maintain its effectiveness in the endgame.

For this reason, we also recommend equipping this build with Aspect of Star Shards, which grant Dance of Knives skill even greater damage.

After unlocking Paragon points, prioritize Danse Macabre. This grants a significant damage bonus when using mobility or stealth.

Alternatively, Deadly Ambush node is also a good choice, as it increases critical hit damage against enemies affected by your traps.

Spiritborn

Since Season 10 buffed Eagle Spirit Hall, the best leveling build for Spiritborn is Quill Volley. This build is all about movement speed, and using any Eagle skill will allow you to fire more feathers, dealing more damage.

Based on this, your primary spirit hall is Eagle, and your secondary is Jaguar. This will make you even more ferocious and your attacks faster.

Paired with Rebounding Aspect, feathers explode at the apex and return to the casting point, dealing 70% damage each time. Combined with Aspect of Unyielding Hits and other armor, you can deal even more damage.

As for Paragon nodes, the first recommended node is Sapping, which restores vitality and allows you to launch more attacks. The second is Drive, which increases the duration of your damage effects by 10 seconds after moving 10 meters.

Barbarian

If you're too lazy to explore more possibilities, you can also use Earthquake Build to quickly level up as a Barbarian. This build is centered around Earthquake, which attacks enemies by dealing area-of-effect damage.

You should also add Rend skill, which allows you to instantly cleave enemies in front of you, dealing damage and inflicting bleed damage over time.

Later, if you upgrade it to Furious Rend, the direct damage dealt grants 5 Fury for each enemy hit, up to a maximum of 25 Fury. Rend only requires 30 Fury to cast, meaning it's practically free.

That's all for this build. Hopefully, you can level up quickly with these builds and become a more advanced Diablo 4 Season 10 player!

No matter how excited you are about the new Diablo 4 Season, it's best not to just pick a random class and build just to get started. Instead, consider the overall mechanics of Season 10 and choose the strongest or most suitable one for you.

In fact, if you're not a die-hard fan of a particular class, we always recommend choosing the strongest class in the current season to experience the main gameplay, then creating a new character to try out other classes.

With that in mind, this time we'll rank the six available Diablo 4 classes in Season 10, from lowest to highest, and show you the best builds for them.

Rank 6 Barbarian

Although Barbarian is ranked last, this doesn't mean he's completely worthless; it just means he's slightly weaker than other classes. Furthermore, the new unique item this class receives, Saber of Tsasgal, is a one-handed sword.

For Barbarian, the best build to utilize in Season 10 is Whirlwind Dual Basic Skill Build. This build uses Whirlwind as a universal primary skill, combined with Chaos Perk Unstable Power to guarantee critical hits and overwhelm enemies with bonus damage.

While this build has a 3-second cooldown, by consistently using two stable basic skills, stacking damage and increasing attack speed, you can spin your basic skills wildly to deal massive damage.

Of course, this is just a best-case recommendation. If you're confident in your Barbarian character and want to explore more playstyles, builds centered around skills like Mighty Throw or Hammer of the Ancients are also excellent.

Rank 5 Rogue

From the perspective of completing endgame content, the expected peak power of Rogue and Barbarian is relatively similar. If you want to fully unleash the power of Rogue in Season 10, Death Trap Build is your best bet.

This build has actually been at or near the top of the available Rogue builds for several consecutive Diablo 4 seasons. In Season 10, with the addition of Chaos Armor mechanic, the powerful Banished Lord's Talisman amulet can be used without occupying an amulet slot.

This way, you get the bonus damage of Death Trap itself, stack it with the bonus damage of numerous core abilities, and gain additional Amulet buffs. More importantly, Death Trap's pull range has been significantly increased this season.

Other Rogue builds available in Season 10 include Dance of Knives, which remains solid and works well in the improved Infernal Hordes. It can quickly clear large groups of enemies and increase the speed at which you can farm Diablo 4 gold or other materials.

Rank 4 Sorcerer

This class received some pretty significant improvements this season, including the removal of the devastating fireball mechanic that gave Fireball mages an advantage, eliminating the ability to deal damage on every bounce.

To compensate, Fireball's base damage has been increased, but overall, Fireball build is expected to be worse off. So if you've always been a fan of Fireball Sorcerer build, it might be best to switch up your strategy in Season 10. Hydra build is a great option.

In fact, combining it with Chaos Armor frees up more amulet slots, allowing any build requiring a unique amulet skill to be moved to amulet slot for increased power, as the amulet slot is typically quite powerful.

Another excellent build is Ball Lightning, which uses Banished Lord's Talisman as Chaos Armor, granting you massive damage and a variety of benefits, such as damage modifiers for simultaneous skills or scaling based on attack speed.

More importantly, Ball Lightning synergizes with Mana Shield compared to Hydra, giving you a more powerful shield. Sorcerer builds described above all perform well in Infernal Hordes.

Rank 3 Necromancer

Necromancer performance remains quite solid this season, with a much wider variety of available builds than in previous seasons, with Blood Wave build still being the standout. However, Shadow Blade builds offer better synergy with seasonal mechanics.

Alter the Balance Chaos Perk allows you to make your ultimates the second half of your core abilities, giving them no cooldown and allowing them to be used more consistently in your build, but only if you have and consume enough Essence.

This can then be combined with your Soul Rift ultimate and various other sources of Shadow damage to make your Shadow Blight ultimate your primary damage source.

The most important of these is Chaos Perk Unstable Power, which grants guaranteed critical hits and suppression to your base abilities, while also increasing their damage.

While this also imposes a cooldown on the abilities, you can improve this by adding Shattered Spirit's Aspect.

Rank 2 Spiritborn

While we've ranked Spiritborn second, it can sometimes outperform the first-ranked Druid with a good build, such as Quill Volley or Touch of Death, but the key is to prioritize Rod of Kepeleke.

The combination of Touch of Death and Rod of Kepeleke significantly enhances the key passive skill, Noxious Resonance, making it highly effective against single targets - though its downside is that it's slightly less effective against multiple targets.

If you're looking for a Spiritborn build with better AoE damage, Quill Volley is always the best choice. With frequent dodging, it can quickly clear enemies, making it perfect for farming in The Pit.

Rank 1 Druid

After two or three seasons of inactivity, Druid finally regained its confidence in Season 10. Its exclusive Chaos Perks allow it to deal up to four times its standard damage at maximum stacks, or even 1000% bonus damage.

As for build choices, thanks to the new unique item, Kilt of Blackwing, companion builds centered around Raven are the best choice in Season 10. The only drawback is that their AoE damage isn't particularly high.

Overall, even the weakest class has a good overall gameplay experience and average build strength in Season 10. So the content we provide is just a suggestion. You can also choose classes and builds according to your own habits to experience it. Have fun!

Since Spiritborn class launched, Thorns build has been a core build, providing reliable damage output for multiple seasons, making it ideal for clearing dungeons or slaying bosses, so that you can have extra chance to farm more Diablo 4 gold.

With the arrival of the new unique item, Balazan's Maxtlatl, in Season 9, Thorns Spiritborn build has become even more powerful thanks to its thorn damage-related properties.

So how can you build on this gear's benefits and optimize your build to more effectively farm bosses and earn resources in Season 9? We'll explain.

The Importance Of Balazan's Maxtlatl

As the core piece of gear that makes Thorns Spiritborn build even more important in Season 9, Balazan's Maxtlatl pants convert your thorn damage into poison damage to nearby enemies, and the poison damage increases with each use of thorns.

From this foundation, you can combine other core Spiritborn skills with reliable gear to create a powerful Thorns and Poison build that deals massive damage to your enemies - in fact, these pants are also the core of other popular Spiritborn builds.

To obtain this item in Season 9, you can complete world events or clear Nightmare dungeons on Torment difficulty, or more specifically, farm the bosses Urivar and Varshan.

Thorns Spiritborn Build In Season 9

After equipping Balazan's Maxtlatl, you must always stand within Mystic Circle when utilizing this build to effectively deal damage.

This is because, when paired with Jaguar Primary Hall, your Mystic Circle will essentially always deal double damage, bringing the total damage output of the entire build to an astonishing level.

In short, in Season 9, the only thing that really matters for this build is Spirit Hall and Paragon board selection; gear and skills should be based on standard configurations. We'll explain this further.

Spirit Hall And Skills

Spirit Hall is a class-specific mechanic for Spiritborn class, allowing you to designate primary and secondary spirit guardians. The primary spirit guardian affects all of your skills, while the secondary spirit guardian grants you additional passive effects.

For Thorns Spiritborn build, Jaguar Primary Spirit Hall is essential. This mechanic transforms all of your skills into Jaguar skills, and each time you deal 15 direct damage to an enemy with a skill, you gain an additional attack.

The secondary Jaguar Spirit Hall increases your maximum Ferocity by 1, and grants an additional Ferocity for each kill or boss damage.

For this reason, the essential Spiritborn skill for this build is Quill Volley. This skill hurls five feathers at enemies, piercing them each time, with each feather dealing 26% damage.

This, combined with the frequent feather and the extra attack opportunities provided by Jaguar Primary Spirit Hall, allows you to rack up significant damage in combat. You can also further enhance Quill Volley in the skill tree.

Other skills worth adding include:

• Toxic Skin
• Ravager
• Armored Hide
• The Hunter
• Vortex

Which Gear Is Worth Equipping?

Besides Balazan's Maxtlatl, the first piece of gear I recommend for this build is Razorplate. This universal chest armor grants you thorns, giving them a 10% chance to deal 100-200% increased damage.

Additionally, you'll need to equip some gear with runes or gems to further enhance their power. Based on this build, we recommend the following gear:

• Balazan's Maxtlatl: Grand Amethyst
• Razorplate: Rune Poc and Que
• Loyalty's Mantle: Rune Ahu and Ohm
• Vehement Brawler's Aspect: Grand Skull or Luminate Eye
• Rebounding Aspect: Grand Skull or Seal of Denial
• Mother's Embrace: Grand Skull or Idol From Below
• Conceited Aspect: Grand Amethyst
• Aspect of Plains Power
• Duelist's Aspect

Available Horadric Spells And Jewels

As the most important seasonal mechanic of Season 9, Horadric Spells and Jewels can provide additional benefits to most builds, provided you choose and equip the ones that best suit your style.

Horadric Spells:

• Catalyst - Celestial Surge (paired with Quill Volley): Awakens an Oracular Rune to pull in all nearby enemies, then causes a chain of stars to randomly strike the area 20 times, dealing damage.
• Infusion - Corrosive Vapor: Enemies struck take 4% poison damage for 320 seconds, with a bonus to poison damage equal to your highest damage type bonus.
• Arcana - Bottled Wind: Summon a Catalyst to grant a barrier equal to 30% of your maximum health for 4 seconds.
• Arcana - Fractured Core: Causes Catalyst to deactivate monster damage resistance auras for 2.5 seconds, but increases the stacking damage you take by 10% during this time.
• Arcana - Reactive Ooze: After activating a Catalyst for 5 seconds, you gain 10% of your maximum resource generation per second.

Horadric Jewels:

• Idol From Below: Increases your primary stat by 6%, your maximum health by 8%, and you are always Unhindered.
• Seal of Denial: When equipped with two or more Arcana from School of Denial, gain a 30% bonus to barrier, fortify, and thorns.
• Luminate Eye: Reduces the cooldown of Catalytic skills by 25%.

How To Choose Skills For Mercenaries?

As you know, mercenaries are a mechanic introduced in Diablo 4 Season 6 that allow you to select two mercenaries to assist you in battle, so they can also be added as part of builds.

The best mercenary build for this build is to have Raheir as your main companion and Varyana as the reinforcement, unlocking the following abilities for each:

Raheir:

• Ground Slam
• Raheir's Aegis
• Bastion
• Inspiration

Varyana:

• Quill Volley
• Bloodthirst

We hope this information helps you accumulate more resources before the end of Season 9 so you can prepare for Season 10, which launches at the end of September! Thank you for reading!
