Attention Diablo 4 players, Diablo 4 Season 5 is about to be released! I’m sure you’ve already learned a lot from many guides, and there will definitely be an end-game event called Infernal Hordes.

But do you know how to start fighting Demons in Hell in Infernal Hordes? That’s where you need to rely on Infernal Hordes Compass. This guide will show you how to get and upgrade this important item in Infernal Hordes in Season 5.

Location Of Infernal Hordes Compass

Before joining Infernal Hordes, you will need to complete Eye of the Enemy quest near Zarbinzet in Hawezar. At the end of the mission, you will receive Talisman of Lochlan's Unique Amulet and a Tie 1 Infernal Hordes Compass. From what we know so far, you will find Infernal Hordes Compass in various corners throughout the game world, such as Nightmare Dungeons, The Pit, or Tree of Whisper caches.

Besides, it will be found in Helltide Chests you get after each Helltide event. You can even give it directly to Occultist to make it for you. If you don’t have time to prepare Infernal Hordes Compass in advance, don’t worry, because there will be some Compass for you to pick up in Infernal Hordes themselves.

In addition to the latest end-game event, Infernal Hordes, most other major end-game events that can provide you with gear or items can reward you with Compass. However, depending on the difficulty of the content, Infernal Hordes Compass will have different levels. For example, when you unlock World Tier 3 and complete the quest chain to unlock Infernal Hordes, you will usually find compasses from Tier 1 to Tier 3 in Nightmare Dungeons, Helltide Chests, Helltide enemies, and Tree of Whispers cache.

In the previous PTR, some advance players have tested that the probability of dropping Infernal Hordes Compass in Tree of Whispers cache is 75%, and the drop rate of the remaining locations may require you to explore yourself after the official launch.

In addition, you need to fight monsters of different levels in these locations. For example, in WT3, you need to fight monsters of level 50-70; in WT4, you need to fight monsters of level 70-100; when you reach Tie 100 in WT4, you need to fight monsters of level 100. As you progress into the later stages of the game, you’ll be able to obtain some rare Tier 4-8 Infernal Compasses that will help you in the later, more difficult content. Likewise, higher-level Nightmare Dungeons and Pit drops higher-tier Compasses.

Infernal Hordes Compass is actually very similar to Nightmare Dungeon Keys before it. The deeper you go into World Tier system, the harder it is to get Compasses. So you’ll want to make sure your character’s attributes match the current World Tier before you start looking for it, so that your exploration will be easier.

Depending on the level of Infernal Compass, you’ll find various affixes on them. Generally, the higher the level of the location you’re in, the fewer resurrections you’ll have and the more waves you’ll get.

You’ll also get better rewards from it, such as a higher chance of getting unique, legendary, and Diablo 4 Gold among other rewards. This is the reason you’ll want to grind for more challenging content, so that you have a greater chance of getting the perfect gear for you.

How To Make And Upgrade Infernal Compasses?

If you don’t want to spend time exploring Nightmare Dungeons or The Pit, you can just give it to Occultists as mentioned above, and they will teach you how to make Infernal Compasses.

He will tell you that you need to obtain two very competitive resources, Forgotten Souls and Sigil Powder, before you can make the compasses you want. After you use the corresponding Compasses, you can also dismantle it to get more Sigil Poder, so that you can save a little resource when making the next compass.

When you get an Infernal Compass, you can unlock the corresponding Infernal Hordes. But after Tier 3 Infernal Compass, if you want to get a higher Tie compass, you need to use Abyssal Scrolls to help you upgrade.

Abyssal Scrolls are usually found in Helltide Mystery Chests or in the material packs in Spils of Hells you will get after Infernal Hordes run ends. You can use it to upgrade your Infernal Compass to unlock higher Tie Infernal Hordes. What you need to note here is that starting from Tier 4, each level up will add an additional Abyssal Scroll.

Here is good news for you. The drop rate of Abyssal Scrolls has been increased when Season 5 is officially released. So you can find it in Treasure Goblins and some loot chests in the game world. This means that you can upgrade more Infernal Compasses and increase the number of times you explore Infernal Hordes.

That’s all you need to know about Infernal Compass in Diablo 4 Season 5. I’m sure you’re looking forward to the official release of Season 5, so come to IGGM Discord and wait with other players! You can express your expectations here, and you’ll also have a chance to win some extra Diablo 4 Gold. We’re looking forward to it together!
