Here I will tell you some effective strategies for quickly leveling up in Diablo 4 Season 1. In this leveling guide, the focus is on leveling up efficiently and completing the game quickly. If you’ve already completed the campaign in this Eternal Realm, the first step is to skip the campaign.

Once we get to Sanctuary, we get some Renown rewards. That’s not much, and will get us to level 2 after logging in. If you have an idea for an upgrade, this is a great place to start.

Typically, leveling builds prioritize powerful areas of effect with Core Skills, Passive, Damage Multipliers, and Movement Speed. After you’ve picked up any Side Quests near Kyovashad, you’ll need to identify Whispers region closest to you.

Levels 1 To 30 - Focus On Large Groups Of Monsters

From levels 1 to 30, your goal is to focus on taking down any hordes of monsters you can find. So you just need to move towards Whispers target and cultivate any enemy groups in between. 

This will be a rinse and repeat process. Get on your mount, follow another marker towards Whispers, and stop to look for any groups of enemies along the way.

If you see an event where there are groups of elites and thugs, you need to stop and defeat them. This will be our main and most important source of XP per hour. Anything that prevents this will result in a loss of XP. This includes opening your inventory and trying to read every Diablo 4 Items, as well as opening your Skill Points menu and reading everything.

If you spend 30 seconds every time you pick up that gear or look at Skill Points menu every time you level up, you’re missing out on a lot of opportunities to farm XP. Only try to do this if you can no longer clear the mobs with an attack or two, otherwise it’s just a waste of time.

Complete Grim Favor Or Side Quest

Every time you complete a Grim Favor or Side Quest, you get another XP boost in addition to what you’ve already done.

At level 11, clearing 2 groups of mobs gave me 1,000 XP, about 3% of my level. Clearing Whispers of The Dead gave me a 1,200 XP bonus. That’s another 3% of my level. Completing Side Quests also gets the same amount, about 3% of my level.

Reduce The Number Of Recalls

Another time waster in early leveling is recalling. We should do filling up your inventory and returning to town as little as possible. Typically, you should be able to hit level 20 to 30 within an hour, at which point enemies can become harder to kill. But this is where we change our strategy.

Aspects

You’ll need to identify nearby dungeons that offer Aspects that increase your damage based on your build. You can set a marker and make sure to kill every pack of mobs in between here and there, reaping all Diablo 4 Gold rewards faster.

Because we know that there will definitely be elites and a lot of enemies. So we can speed up our clearance time by unlocking an Aspect in this Codex of Power.

At Occultist, make sure to get these Aspects stamped on your accessories like rings and amulets. Because putting one of your most effective Aspects on the rings gives you a 50% bonus.

Rare Or Legendary Gear

You also have to be prepared to pick up some rare or legendary gear. On armor, you’ll look for things like Main Stat, Cooldown Reduction, Damage, Crit Chance, Movement Speed Rank. Especially Core Skills of gloves.

Your weapons will depend on your build, but you’ll also want to focus on weapon stats that apply to your build, including:

• Crit Damage
• Vulnerable Damage
• Overpower Damage
• Damage vs
• Main Stat
• Core Skill Damage

The accessories focus on Crit Chance, Cooldown Reduction, Movement Speed, Vulnerable Damage.

It doesn’t matter if a piece of armor or a weapon has +2 damage, what matters is that these affixes multiply the type of damage you’re doing. Doing this as well as giving your build the proper Aspect will get you cleared faster, which also means you gain XP faster.

Level 30 To 50 - Complete Strongholds

At level 30 to 50, keep doing what you were doing before, but start including Strongholds. Strongholds have a high density of mobs and sometimes a lot of elites. But just remember to keep clearing the hordes of mobs along the way.

If your build is going strong, you can also head to Hawezar and Kehjistan for the challenge. In Hawezar, monsters can reach up to level 40, while Kehjistan can reach level 45. Just make sure your removal speed isn’t affected. Mobs give you an extra 1.5% experience per level above you. Up to 10 levels above you.

Also, Malignant Tunnels, which are exclusive to this Seasonal Realm, will grant even more XP, based on what we learned in a developer update. Don’t forget to use Elixirs and team up with friends for an extra 15% XP. 

That’s it for my leveling plan. Hope these tips and tricks help you level up quickly and efficiently in Diablo 4. See you in the game.
