Diablo 4 Boosting

Diablo 4 Season 14 PTR 3.1 will end on June 9th, allowing you to preview the changes in Season 14. Among all the adjustments, the most significant one is undoubtedly Mythic Unique 3.0 system. Imagine if every piece of your gear were a Mythic item - while that is not exactly the reality, this system will undoubtedly alter the power of character builds and even the overall progression curve.

Although the official announcement lacks sufficient detail, we can examine how Mythic Unique 3.0 actually works based on PTR's performance.

Mythic Unique 3.0 Affixes

In Season 14, all unique items in the game now have a chance to drop randomly as Mythic versions. A Mythic unique item has two defining characteristics:

• All affixes are max-rolled.
• The unique effect is boosted by 30% and also reaches its cap.

This means every attribute on the item will be set to the maximum possible value for that item type. For example, an amulet's Willpower stat, which normally varies within a range, will instead be fixed at 180 in its Mythic form. The unique effect of a Mythic item is further enhanced by 30% and also capped.

Simply put, the core feature of a Mythic unique is that all its affixes are maximized. The visual appearance of new Mythic items has also been upgraded: they feature a distinct dynamic purple glow, different from the old Mythic items.

When you drop a new Mythic item on the ground, it still displays the text label of a unique item, but it emits a purple light pillar and shows a purple symbol on the left side, making it easy to identify at a glance.

Legacy Mythic Items

Legacy Mythic items function exactly the same as the new Mythic versions, except they do not have a corresponding normal unique base. These legacy Mythic items have also been heavily rebalanced.

Legacy Mythic items now randomly generate affixes, but as Mythic quality, all affixes are max-rolled. Many legacy Mythic items have had some fixed affixes removed, with those effects integrated into the unique power instead.

All legacy Mythic items still retain one affix that is fixed and cannot be changed. However, the values of these fixed affixes are no longer higher than those on normal gear. In Season 14, the maximum attack speed on a legendary or unique ring is 10%, and Ring of Starless Skies also has 10% attack speed - it no longer has an extra advantage.

Legacy Mythic items are now fully unified with the new Mythic versions. The only difference is that they lack a normal unique counterpart.

Diablo 4 Season 13 Mythic items remain highly sought after. If you're looking to improve your character's strength, don't miss IGGM's giveaway during 3.1 PTR; Lair Boss keys might help you farm Mythic items.

Rerolling Affixes

In Season 13, affixes on Mythic and unique items could not be changed at all; they remained as they dropped. Season 14 will be completely different: you will be able to reroll affixes on Mythic and unique items inside Horadric Cube.

Once Season 14 begins, all Mythic and unique items (including old Mythic items) will support both Chaotic Reroll and Focused Reroll to randomly re-roll a specific affix. The process works exactly like rerolling legendary or rare gear. However, note that you cannot use Occultist's Enchantment system to precisely control which affix you get, as you would with legendary gear. In other words, you can only perform random rerolls inside Horadric Cube, which introduces a degree of unpredictability.

How to Get Mythic Items in Season 14?

During normal gameplay, when an ancestral unique item drops, it has a chance to be directly transformed into its Mythic version. It is speculated that the drop rate for Mythic versions of normal unique items will be higher than that of legacy Mythic items, since the latter have no normal counterpart and should theoretically be rarer. That said, the development team may adjust this before the official launch of Season 14.

Horadric Cube Upgrades

Beyond natural drops, Horadric Cube in Season 14 also includes a recipe that upgrades a unique item into a random Mythic item of the same category. This upgrade consumes 5 Pandemonium Fragments, a season-exclusive material.

One-handed weapons, two-handed weapons, or off-hands will only yield a Mythic item from the same weapon category.

Rings and Amulets share a random pool, meaning a unique ring could become a Mythic Amulet.

Armor results are even more random: the outcome will be any one Mythic piece drawn from the five armor slots - helmet, chest piece, legs, gloves, and boots.

Resplendent Spark

Since all Diablo 4 Mythic items now belong to a single major category, the crafting system has changed accordingly.

The new season recipe allows you to use 7 Pandemonium Fragments to craft one Resplendent Spark. Currently, both Upgrade to Mythic and Make Resplendent Spark are season-exclusive recipes, and it is uncertain whether they will remain after Season 14 ends.

Jeweler

At Jeweler, you can take 2 Resplendent Sparks and a number of runes to craft a random Mythic item. These items are no longer fixed specific pieces; instead, they are random Mythic items within a given category.

This may make runes a scarce resource in Season 14. Because ancestral unique items drop very frequently, Resplendent Sparks become much easier to obtain, but the number of runes that drop may not support large-scale crafting.

Blacksmith

At Blacksmith, you can also take 2 Resplendent Sparks and 50 million gold to obtain a random Iconic Mythic item (old Mythic item). If you are specifically hunting for these old Mythic items for a certain build, this recipe can save you a lot of effort.

Season 14's Mythic system represents a comprehensive upgrade over the unique item system of Season 13. Apart from the excessive randomness of the armor category in the season recipe, the rest of the changes are well worth looking forward to.

Players, Goblin event is one of the most popular events in Diablo 4 Season 13. During the event, the spawn rate of Treasure Goblins will significantly increase across the entire map, making it a prime opportunity to farm various materials. So, how should we complete March of the Goblins, and which route should we use for efficient monster farming?

March of the Goblins Overview

Starting June 3rd, players first need to go to Kyovashad to accept the starting quest. This quest requires accumulating 600 Goblin Points, with 50 Points awarded for each Goblin killed.

Completing this quest will unlock Altar of the Goblins located in Kyovashad, which is Reputation Board for this event.

It's important to note that many players think the event is over once Reputation Board is full, but in reality, Reputation Board is just the beginning.

The real core value lies in repeatedly killing Goblins to obtain a massive amount of crafting materials, including materials for Horadric Cube, gold, and Forgotten Souls, among other scarce resources.

If you're consistently short of these materials, March of the Goblins can completely solve your resource shortage problem in one go.

Reputation Board Rewards and Important Notes

After completing Reputation Board, players will receive a series of chest rewards, and you can also receive additional chests whenever you accumulate a certain number of Goblins killed.

Additionally, here's a crucial reminder: during March of the Goblins, you must regularly return to Goblin statue in Kyovashad to collect these chests.

Because if you don't collect all the rewards before the end of March of the Goblins, i.e., before June 17th, all unclaimed rewards will disappear. So don't just focus on farming monsters and forget to come back and open the chests.

Avoid Inefficient Farming Areas

Many players rush to Infernal Hordes immediately upon hearing about Goblin event, because Chaos event and Chaos Wave can indeed quickly fill up Reputation Board.

The problem is that farming Infernal Hordes yields almost no substantial material rewards, meaning you only get Reputation Board's reward and miss out on the true value of March of the Goblins.

Although The Pits contains a lot of Greed Shrines, it is not suitable for farming Goblins because the monsters in The Pits do not drop Diablo 4 items. All rewards are distributed only at the end, making the extra materials from Goblins completely unobtainable.

Kurast Undercity suffers from the same issue: all materials and drops are fixed in the final rewards.

Therefore, all three modes are only suitable for quickly clearing Reputation Board in March of the Goblins, rather than being a truly efficient way to farm materials.

Best Farming Area Comparison and Recommendations

If you have already unlocked Diablo 4 Lord of Hatred, you can choose to prioritize going to Nahantu region. If you don't have expansion, PvP area is an excellent alternative. Some players have found seven or eight Goblins within five minutes in PvP area, with impressive results in testing.

Furthermore, Hoarfrost Demise Dungeon remains a classic route favored by players every season.

If you don't find Goblins or shrines in Hoarfrost Demise Dungeon, simply exit and reset the dungeon. This repeated resetting is similar to farming gems during the season.

Core Tip 1: Disable Cross-Platform Play

Before starting any Goblin event, the first thing you absolutely must do is log out of Diablo 4, then go to the settings and find the connection-related options. Disable Cross-Platform Play, then log back into the game.

This significantly increases your Goblin spawn rate. Because if you turn on Cross Network Play, you'll encounter a large number of other players who will steal your Goblins before you even arrive.

Disabling it essentially puts you in a more private server, where the number of Goblins is significantly higher and there's no competition for them.

Core Tip 2: Hire Subo

If you have Nahantu and have unlocked the mercenary Subo, be sure to bring him along, as Subo is practically the god of Goblin hunting.

In practice, you need to zoom the game view to a suitable distance and frequently open the large map to scan, because Subo's marking range on the map is far greater than the display range on the minimap.

You can see a Goblin's location on the large map, but at the same time, it won't appear on the minimap at all. This is Subo's power. With his help, you can see Goblin markers on the minimap that are far beyond the normal field of view.

Core Tip 3: Proper Use of Greed Shrines

During March of the Goblins, Greed Shrines will produce additional special effects. You need to find these shrines on the map.

Before finding the shrines, try not to kill any monsters in the vicinity, because after you activate Greed Shrine, these surviving monsters will be used to trigger Greed Shrine effect. The more monsters you kill, the faster Greed Shrine respawns.

There are some fixed locations in Nahantu area where Greed Shrines will spawn. Simply run around the map repeatedly to find them. Once you activate a shrine, quickly clear the surrounding monsters and move on to the next shrine location.

By following this route and technique in Diablo 4, you can completely acquire any materials you're missing during this March of the Goblins!
