Diablo 4 Season 6: How To Get Enough Living Steel To Summon Grigoire? - Farming Method & Usage

As Diablo 4 enters Season of Hatred Rising, the difficulty of some enemies has also increased with the upgrade of the difficulty system in the new season, which may require you to learn more combat skills and strategies. But what will not change is that for some Uber Bosses, you still need to use some summoning materials to summon them, instead of waiting for your challenge in the arena.

Among all the summoning materials, Living Steel can be said to be very important. Not only because it is very rare but also because it can summon Galvanic Saint Grigoire, which can provide you with a lot of Uniques. This is a very powerful Boss added in the previous season. Of course, besides Uniques, this Boss will also reward you with Shards of Agony, which can be used to summon Echo of Duriel, which is more powerful but can also provide you with more loot. So Living Steel is the source of all your rewards, and its importance can be seen.

Although Living Steel is very difficult to obtain, this guide will tell you that it is very difficult to obtain. Here we will introduce you to multiple ways to farm Living Steel and tell you how to use it, striving to provide you with a one-stop service.

Farming Methods

Once you have passed all the experience and reached Torment 1, you can start farming Living Steel. Here is a suggestion for you: your farming efficiency will be higher in higher levels of Tormented difficulty. Living Steel mainly drops when you run some endgame activities, such as Kurast Undercity or Nightmare Dungeons exclusive to Season 6.

Of course, you may find that the drop rate of Living Steel in these dungeons is too low after your first run. If you don’t want to participate in the more tough challenges, you can only grind in these two dungeons multiple times to increase the probability of Living Steel dropping.

Or you can also find Living Steel in Tortured Gifts that appear in Helltide events, where the chance will be slightly higher. Once you’ve completed the main campaign, Helltides will appear on the map, and you can join them through a portal and defeat some enemies with a powerful build enhanced by Diablo 4 Gold.

After you defeat all the enemies and complete the events, you’ll earn the special currency in Helltides called Aberrant Cinders. You’ll need to use it to open Helltides Chests that may contain Living Steel, but don’t be sad if you don’t have the summoning material you want, because some of the powerful items in them are also very valuable and can be used to enhance your build and character.

If you want to do a targeted farming of Living Steel, you can use 250 Aberrant Cinders to get Tortured Gifts, which have a greatly increased drop rate of this summoning material, and you can even get 14 Living Steel at once, while other Helltides Chests can only give you 1-2 at most!

In addition, you can also specifically pick the time when Helltides appears in Kehjistan, because this is the only region with three Tortured Gifts. Once you enter this Helltide, spend 600 Aberrant Cinders to open all Tortured Gifts, and you can even get 42 Living Steel in less than an hour.

It should be noted here that you can only get this Tortured Gift after unlocking Torment Difficulties, which is also a prerequisite for participating in the endgame event.

Usage

Living Steel is used to summon Tormented Grigoire. You need to take these summoning materials to Hall of the Penitent in any Torment difficulties and find a summoning altar there. If you can’t find this special location, you can use Ked Bardu, the capital of Dry Steppes, as a landmark, which is just south of the capital.

It costs 12 Living Steel each time you summon Tormented Grigoire, and this cost does not increase with the increase of Torment difficulties. After you place the summoning materials, this Uber Boss will appear.

Here are some combat tips for you: First, if your Lightning Resistance cap is less than 70%, you need to equip an Elixir of Lightning Resistance II in your build to increase your resistance to magic damage cast by Grigoire. In addition, during the battle, try to go around it from behind to attack it, so that you can avoid a lot of frontal attacks.

When its health is only 40%, Grigoire will summon some small monsters to help it. At this time, your attack target should be changed to these small monsters, otherwise they will also be very deadly to you. After you successfully defeat it, you can pick up some very valuable loot and Diablo 4 Gold. The following is a list of loot it provides.
