Diablo 4 Boosting

Diablo 4 Season 9 is a good choice for new players, as the season lasts longer, the Sorcerer and Necromancer, two of the most popular classes for new players, are both very powerful, and the season power is more interesting than Season 8.

Here are some useful quality of life tips for new players, some of which may not be noticed by veteran players, and they can improve your game experience in various aspects.

No.1 Infinite Sprint

Mounts are a very important part of Diablo 4, and with them you can travel faster. No player should want to experience the feeling of running slowly on two legs in a vast map, and when you unlock a mount, everything becomes much faster.

But the developer has some quirks, which he likes to add cooldowns to everything, even the player’s horse. Mounting, horse sprinting, and dismounting attacks all have cooldowns, which greatly affects the game experience.

In fact, the cooldown reduction affixes on your equipment are also very effective for these parts. You can use some Diablo 4 gold to re-roll the affixes on your equipment here at Occultist to get the CD reduction effect. Then you can sprint infinitely because its CD time is less than its sprint time.

No.2 Change Gems And Runes

Gems and runes in Diablo 4 are very important. Gems can provide precious resistance and attributes. In Endgame, stacking resistance to the upper limit is a basic requirement for most builds. Otherwise, you will be defeated by monsters easily at high difficulty. Attributes determine how much damage you can do. The attributes required for each class are as follows:

• Druid: Willpower
• Necromancer: Intelligence
• Rouge: Dexterity
• Spiritborn: Dexterity
• Sorcerer: Intelligence
• Barbarian: Strength

Some players will go to the jeweler to inlay and replace their gems, but in fact you don’t need to go that far. You can drag your gems to your equipment at any time in the equipment interface, which will directly replace them without additional gold. You can also directly replace Diablo 4 runes on your equipment in this way.

No.3 Improve Experience Gain

At the beginning of Season 9, you may have heard that other players have reached the maximum level in one day, while you were still doing the main quest. How did they level up so quickly? Many players may have this question because when they reach level 55, the leveling speed will become very slow.

The game provides players with many ways to level up quickly:

• 1. EXP Elixir and Incense
• 2. Team up to get EXP bonus
• 3. Nightmare Dungeon and Hadetile

Use these three methods together, and your leveling speed will become very fast. Don’t stop using Elixir and Incense during your leveling up. They can provide you with about 10% bonus, but note that the duration of Incense is 10 minutes shorter than Elixir. Teaming up with other players can allow you to get another 10% experience bonus.

In previous seasons, farming Nightmare Dungeons and Helltide can give you a lot of experience. If you go to Forgotten Wisdom Nightmare Dungeon, you will also get an additional 15% XP bonus. With these experience stacking bonuses, the time you reach the maximum level will be greatly shortened.

No.4 Finding Materials

There are many materials in Diablo 4, such as gem fragments, nest boss materials, materials for making elixirs, etc. All this junk fills up your backpack, but there are always some Diablo 4 materials that you don’t have when you need them.

At this time, you can hover your mouse over the material you need, and you can see how to farm it. Another way is to search for the material you need in the materials tab, and then see how to get it in the same way.

No. 5 Armory

Each class has many builds. When you come to the endgame, you may want to try other builds. Then you can try to use the armory to save your existing builds. You can keep up to 5 different builds. You can quickly switch your skills, weapons and glyphs, and you don’t need to use Diablo 4 gold to reset skills. But some parts require you to adjust manually, such as equipment gems, seasonal content, etc.

No.7 Boss Teleport

If you have challenged a boss once, you can see the icon of the boss on the map. If you plan to challenge it again, you don’t need to navigate to this area and run it again. You can click its icon and teleport directly to it. If this is a lair boss, you can also see if you have enough materials when you click on the icon, without having to check your backpack.

The above are some simple tips about quality of life in Diablo 4 season 9. Although they will not improve your strength, they can save you time. Although the developers have been adding some features to optimize the quality of life in each update, I don’t know when they will add the most important feature, the loot filter.

Since its release in June 2023, Diablo 4 has been at the center of player discussion: some people think that it does not reach the nostalgic heights of several previous games, but others think that its lower game difficulty is very suitable for new players to try.

Despite this, the game has maintained its strong momentum and released its ninth season: Sins of the Horadrim in early July, which provides players with new construction options such as Horadric Spells and Horadric Jewels as well as explorable Escalating Nightmares and Horadric Strongrooms.

Not long ago, the developer released the first major patch in Season 9 - Patch 2.3.1, which improves the effectiveness balance between existing classes and fixes existing bugs in the game. In addition, there is an event called Gift of the Tree, which is an event with a valid time that can provide you with a lot of rewards.

When you explore during its effective time, you can get a temporary buff. This guide will give a specific introduction to Gift of the Tree event, including its operating mechanism and usage strategy. Not only that, it will also evaluate whether it is worth exploring based on some player feedback.

How Does Gift Of The Tree Work?

If you are a loyal Diablo 4 player, you can tell from the name of this event that it may be related to Tree of Whispers in the game that glows with a faint blue light, which is an interactive system that allows you to redeem corresponding rewards such as Diablo 4 gold and other loot by spending some specific currency.

That’s right! When you deliver 10 Grim Favors in front of this tree during the exploration of Diablo 4 Season 9 and choose a reward chest, you can get an extra Chaos Cache. But please note that there may be some minor issues with Greater Dungeon Key caches at this stage and they cannot provide you with additional rewards.

This bug may be fixed in the recent hotfix, so don’t worry too much. Unlike the treasure chests provided by this Tree of Whispers, Chaos Cache can reward you with any type of items, from common to Ancestral items, which are all randomly combined. Additionally, if you get 10 Chaos Caches from it, you’ll unlock Chaotic Whispers achievement.

Running Strategy

In order to get more chests and get Chaotic Whispers achievement as quickly as possible, you need to farm Grim Favor effectively. But please note that your character must first complete all the campaigns of the season. Here is a little trick for you: use the toggle button on the menu when creating a seasonal character to skip the campaign.

Once you have everything ready, you can start farming this special currency in Whispers missions, which are essentially bounty missions given to you by Tree of Whispers. Generally, these missions will appear on your mini-map as icons with light pink, pink, and red borders.

The color on the icon indicates the number of Grim Favors you can get from this mission: light pink icons only have one, pink icons have three, and red icons have five. In short, the darker the color, the more rewards you get, so you can aim for missions with red icons and farm them multiple times.

Once you have collected a certain amount of Grim Favor, you can deliver it to the Tree of Whispers or Raven of the Tree, where you will receive three different treasure chests, as well as a Chaos Cache, which was added with the Gift of the Tree event.

Is It Worth Exploring?

Indeed, the additional Chaos Caches offered in Gift of the Tree event look very attractive, but their concrete value cannot be precisely defined, as the rarity of the items they contain is uneven and completely random.

Besides, since the current Season 9 Sins of the Horadrim has only lasted for half a month now, players’ enthusiasm for Escalating Nightmares and Horadric Strongrooms has not faded, so the value of the benefits of Whispers that spend more time and D4 Gold to explore is not high.

Not only that, according to the feedback from the player community and players on social media, Gift of the Tree event is completely inconsistent with the theme and game style of the current season, and it shows that it would be better if it was released during Diablo 4 Season 7: Season of Witchcraft.

Because in that witchcraft-themed season, players need to unlock various witchcraft powers near Tree of Whispers and learn more about the background of the season story near it. As for S9, players rarely visit this interactive system, so it may not be worth your dedicated exploration.

In addition to the exploration value of this activity itself, the problem of Diablo 4 itself is also very big. When the 2.3.1 patch was launched, most players reported that there were loading process lags, crashes and various technical issues. After the developer learned about this, he hurriedly rolled back the game content on PC to the previous patch content, but there was no change on the console.

This is because rolling back on the console is not as simple as on PC, so players playing Diablo 4 on PS and Xbox have to be unable to enjoy the best gaming experience until the next patch is released. In this case, no matter how profitable the activities in the game are, they cannot attract players’ interest.

These are the specific information and operation strategies for the current Diablo 4 Season 9 Gift of the Tree event. Although the conclusion here is that this event is not worth your time and effort to farm the corresponding currency and Chaos Caches, if you have the opportunity to interact with Tree of Whispers, you must not miss the ability to obtain this extra treasure chest. I wish you a happy game!
