In Diablo 4 series of games, there are always various powerful bosses. Players can obtain various loot as game rewards by defeating them, to advance the game and enhance the game experience.
With the launch of the latest season Season of Hatred Rising, not only some new bosses have appeared in the game but also the challenge difficulty of some bosses has increased. However, one thing has not changed. Some bosses you cannot challenge directly, but need to summon them through some game materials before you can fight with them.
Therefore, before getting more Diablo 4 Gold through powerful bosses, you first need to find a way to get this kind of summoning materials, including Living Steel.
Based on this, we will introduce you to some methods of farming Living Steel in season 6, as well as its specific functions.
Overview Of Living Steel
As a summoning material in the game, Living Steel is not the first time it appears in Season of Hatred Rising. In fact, it has appeared in previous seasons. However, compared with the past, there are always some updates and optimizations in the new season, so if you want to get Living Steel in season 6, there are still some details that players need to notice.
Currently in the game, players can summon the boss Grigoire, the Galvanic Saint, which was added to the game in the past through Living Steel. If you defeat it, you can get Uniques and Shards of Agony as rewards.
Among them, Shards of Agony is actually a kind of summoning material. Players can use it to summon Echo of Duriel and fight with it to get more battle rewards.
From this, you will find that if you want to get benefits by fighting powerful bosses as much as possible in the new season, Living Steel is the basis of everything. Only with a sufficient number of Living Steel can you continue to unlock more bosses for battle.
How To Farm Living Steel?
When you get XP through other minor battles in the game and upgrade your game character to a high enough level, you can farm Living Steel through Torment difficulty. You can choose to start farming from Torment difficulty 1, but the higher the difficulty level, the higher your farming efficiency will be.
In addition, you can also get some Living Steel by participating in endgame events and fighting related battles. In Season of Hatred Rising, these events are mainly Kurast Undercity or Nightmare Dungeons. However, these activities are quite dangerous, so you’d better be well prepared before you start your adventure.
However, whether you farm Living Steel in Kurast Undercity or Nightmare Dungeons, you may find that the drop rate of Living Steel in these places is relatively low. But if your game level is not high enough to challenge more tough challenges, multiple challenges in these two dungeons in a short period may still be the best solution to farm Living Steel.
In addition, if you participate in Helltide events, you will get Tortured Gifts as a reward, which includes Living Steel. And the chance of getting Living Steel through Tortured Gifts is not low at present. As for how to participate in Helltide events, when you complete the main campaign in this season, the event will appear on the map and you can join it through the portal.
When you complete Helltide events by defeating all enemies, you can get an event currency called Aberrant Cinders. These can be used to open the gifts or treasure chests you get during the events, so that you can get Living Steel in this way. And even if these treasure chests don’t contain Living Steel, you can still get Diablo 4 Gold or other materials as rewards.
However, if you want to increase the drop rate of Living Steel in this way, you can use a lot of Aberrant Cinders at once to open enough Tortured Gifts, so that the drop rate of Living Steel will be greatly increased, and the maximum drop rate will be 14 Living Steel at a time.
It is also worth noting that if you enter the event when Helltide events appear in Kehjistan, you can get 3 Tortured Gifts in the area at once. After that, you can use 600 Aberrant Cinders to open all Tortured Gifts you get, and you can get up to 42 Living Steel.
The Specific Usages Of Living Steel
Currently, the direct use of Living Steel is to summon Tormented Grigoire. Once you have enough Living Steel and other summoning materials, take them to Hall of the Penitent on any difficulty. This location is just south of the capital of Dry Steppes Ked Bardu. After that, find a summoning altar there and you can summon the boss.
It needs 12 Living Steel to summon Tormented Grigoire each time, but the good thing is that this number does not increase with the difficulty of Tormented. After you place all the summoning materials, Tormented Grigoire will appear.
When fighting him, if your Lightning Resistance cap is below 70%, we recommend equipping an Elixir of Lightning Resistance II to increase your resistance to magic damage cast by the boss. Also, during the battle, try to attack behind the boss to avoid direct damage from him.
When Tormented Grigoire’s health drops to 40%, it will summon some minions to help it. At this time, you should attack these minions first, and then focus on attacking Tormented Grigoire.
I believe you have a certain understanding of the importance of Living Steel. I hope this article can help you get a better experience in the new season of Diablo 4. Thank you for reading.
