Diablo 4: The Fastest Way To Farm Renown In Season 1

Source: IGGMOne of the most tedious things in Diablo 4 obviously is farming Renown. It’s a huge pain in the butt, but it’s kind of a necessary evil. Because you want the Skill Points and the Paragon Points. You have to do it.
But a lot of people go at Renown farming the completely wrong way and it actually makes it a lot harder and more frustrating than it has to be. Don’t worry. I’m here to help you out.
Group Play
The first way is going to revolve around Group Play.
I do understand that some people like to play solo or they don’t really have any friends that play this game. But it doesn’t require you to actually communicate with the people that you’re playing with. You just have to be in a group with them.
So, what you can do is drop a comment down below saying that you’re looking for a group. Or, if enough people are interested, I will definitely start a Discord server that is dedicated to help people find groups to play with. But this does require a group to do it. And it is best with 4 players, but 2 works perfectly fine as well.
Once you’re in that group, you are just going to choose an area of the map that each person is going to farm. One person goes to Hawezar. One person goes to Scosglen. One person goes to Fractured Peaks. One person goes to Kehjistan. Then, you are just going to go into a dungeon and run that dungeon till completion.
With the latest patch, Blizzard just released a huge buff to the way that Renown works with the different dungeons. They buff the Renown reward from 30 to 40. So, you are able to get a lot more renowned from completing these dungeons. If have a decently fast build, you can not only complete these dungeons very efficiently but also get a lot of Diablo 4 Items.
But the best part is they didn’t actually take away the fact that if you’re in a party with somebody as they complete a dungeon, you get the rewards from it as well.

For example, somebody is across the map from you and you’re not even in the same dungeon as them. If they complete a dungeon, you get the Codex of Power from it. You get the Renown from it. And you didn’t have to do anything. You were farming your own dungeon. You were farming your own Renown.
If you’re in a party of four people and you’re all just farming dungeons and you’re all extremely fast at it, you can blow through Renown and get to Renown five in a bunch of different areas extremely quickly. And if you had already revealed all the locations on your map and also gotten all the Altars of Lilith, that is going to transfer over to the new season.
So, you’re already starting with a decent bit of renown. It’s not actually going to take you nearly as long to hit Renown 5 as long as you’re just grinding a little bit. And if you have a full group going at a very efficient speed, you can hit Renown 5 on every single part of the map in one day.
What About Strongholds And Side Quests?
Now, some people might be wondering that what about side quests and strongholds?
I’m gonna cover strongholds first. Because strongholds are such a good way to get Renown. But you also want a complete stronghold as quickly as you possibly can because then you can start to do more Legion Events.
And Legion Events are just great for leveling. There will be a lot of mobs in Legion Events. After killing them, you will also gain a lot of XP and Diablo 4 Gold. So, I highly recommend doing those. And you should do as many strongholds as you possibly can as quickly as you can.
But you cannot do them in a group the same way that you can do the dungeon farming. The group has to be together in order to light the beacons. You can do a split farm where you all go a separate direction in a specific stronghold. And at the end, you all kind of gather up and light the beacon. But you can’t do separate strongholds because then you won’t be together to light the beacon afterwards and it just won’t work out the same way.
So, if you’re in a group like this, you can do stronghold farming because it’s gonna be faster than just doing it solo. But it’s not going to be as good or efficient as dungeon farming, in my opinion.
Next up, we have the side quest. Now, side quests also did receive a buff. In the latest patch, they now reward 30 Renown instead of 20 Renown.
But side quests aren’t as efficient as dungeons. Some side quests take forever. They’re almost little mini campaigns. In the time it takes to do some certain side quests, you could have run two dungeons and then you’re getting more Renown from that, anyway. They’re just not as efficient as they should be, so I don’t recommend doing any side quests unless you need just a little tiny bit and you find a really fast one.
