  • Diablo 4 DLC: How To Choose The Most Suitable Mercenary? - Ranking Of Four Mercenaries

    Posted: Nov 06, 2024

    Diablo 4 DLC Vessel of Hatred has been launched for a while now, and most players must have explored most of the mechanisms and content in the expansion. On this basis, you will definitely not be unfamiliar with the mercenary mechanism.

    As an important mechanism in Diablo 4 DLC, mercenaries can serve as effective auxiliary NPCs to help players fight. They have their own unique skills and specialties, which can help players deal with different enemies and combat scenarios. Although unlocking them requires Diablo 4 Gold and some slightly complicated steps, their value is worth it.

    There are 4 mercenaries in Vessel of Hatred, namely Raheir, Aldkin, Varyana and Subo. Players can choose and unlock up to 2 of them as their helpers in the game. Although the system will not limit your choice, you must want to choose as powerful or suitable mercenaries as possible.

    Based on this, we have ranked these four mercenaries from low to high according to their specific performance in Vessel of Hatred for players’ reference and selection.

    4. Aldkin

    Before the mercenary mechanism was officially launched, Aldkin was anticipated because of his interesting design. Unfortunately, his performance in actual combat was not outstanding. His main skill, Blasphemous Fate, allows him to transform into a demon for 22 seconds and gives him new abilities.

    However, during his transformation, not only nearby enemies but also your game character will become vulnerable, and then consume your resources when you cause damage to the enemy. And his transformation is random. So if these problems cannot be optimized, then using Aldkin will be a bit of a loss.

    Even if the build or skills you use in battle do not depend on the amount of resources, Aldkin is still unsatisfactory as a companion. Although his Flame Surge skill tree has a chance to cause high damage to the enemy, when facing the higher level Torment difficulty, the damage he outputs is even far less than your own output.

    Aldkin does get some pleasant benefits in Haunt skill tree, such as daze, slow or stun, which debuff enemies, but other mercenaries can do similar things. Aldkin may be effective in the early game, but his equipment lacks practicality and his overall potential is low, which makes him the lowest ranking of the four mercenaries.

    3. Varyana

    Varyana’s core skill Massacre allows both your game character and Varyana to stack massacres when killing enemies, and gain additional movement speed bonuses when stacking to a certain level. This effect can be stacked up to 100 times, at which point the movement speed can even increase by 20%.

    If you are using a Build or Class with poor mobility and lack of speed, the benefits provided by Varyana’s skills are undoubtedly helpful. But if you already have strong mobility, Varyana is not the best choice among mercenaries for you.

    In Varyana’s Cleave skill tree, she can bleed enemies, giving you another attack speed buff, and applying vulnerability, or a debuff that reduces the amount of damage dealt to nearby enemies. In her Shockwave skill tree, Varyana knocks down enemies multiple times, giving you different combat bonuses by knocking down those she controls.

    But no matter which skill tree, Varyana is still more focused on enhancing the player’s mobility rather than damage output. Although both skill trees provide enough utility, if you need a mercenary with stronger damage, Varyana is relatively ordinary. However, if you are mainly lacking in movement speed or mobility skills, you can definitely add her to your team.

    2. Subo

    From a practical point of view, Subo is very similar to Varyana, and he can also provide players with some damage, crowd control and other buffs. However, what makes Subo special is his main skill Seeker.

    This skill marks all nearby enemies and game materials on the minimap. Every 20 seconds Subo will mark a random enemy, and killing a marked enemy will help you restore 50% of your resources and reduce the cooldown of Seeker by 10 seconds. This skill is very useful if you want to farm Diablo 4 Gold or other game materials during Helltide.

    In fact, no matter which mercenary, they are not designed as helpers for damage output, so their usefulness depends on how much they help in providing support. Whether it is other buffs or the help provided by Seeker skills, Subo has become the second-ranked mercenary.

    Of course, Subo is not completely unable to provide damage buffs. For example, his Wire Trap skill tree provides slowing, knocking down and immobilization effects, while Molotov series has slowing, knocking down and increasing continuous damage effects. And if you hire him while playing a Poison or Bleed-based Build, the effect will be even better.

    1. Raheir

    Raheir is currently the most powerful mercenary in Diablo 4 DLC Vessel of Hatred. He can provide players with considerable damage reduction effects, as well as healing, enhancements, and debuffs. He can be said to be a powerful mercenary because he is very comprehensive.

    His main skill, Valiance, has a great support effect. When you take damage that reaches 15% of your current health, Raheir’s skill will offset the damage you take and knock down nearby enemies, while you will be invincible on the battlefield for 0.5 seconds.

    In addition, most of Raheir’s skills in both skill trees have certain practical or support effects. For example, his shield charge line can bring you a variety of benefits such as strengthening, deceleration, additional armor, damage reduction taunts, and which ones you can get depends on the specific skills you choose. This makes Raheir’s practicality shocking, easily surpassing other mercenaries and becoming the first.

    The above is our ranking of the four mercenaries based on their overall performance. Of course, the ranking is just a reference. In actual combat, players need to make a comprehensive choice based on their own needs and situations to select the mercenary that suits them best.

    In addition, if you want to know more about Diablo 4 DLC content, you can enter IGGM Discord to communicate with others. The channel is currently holding the fifth giveaway event for Diablo 4 Season of Hatred Rising, which will last until November 11.

  • Diablo 4 DLC: How To Work Brazier Puzzle Out? - Based On The Order

    Posted: Nov 05, 2024

    Diablo 4 does not contain complex puzzles mechanics, but its new Vessel of Hatred DLC has changed this situation and introduces a series of puzzle chests. And brazier puzzle remains one of them.

    Whether you choose the new class Spiritborn as your character, or continue with the familiar class, you are bound to deal with these braziers, eventually.

    Brazier puzzle serves as a part of the main questline “All Good Things”. Only by solving this puzzle can you continue the journey. It also shows up in any standard cellar, making it pretty hard to track down. And the even tricker problem comes to the method to figure it out.

    This article introduces the detailed solution of brazier puzzle, paving the path for you to complete the main questline and continue your game journey.

    Origin Of Brazier Puzzle

    If you are not familiar with the puzzles, then you may feel confused and tricky about its one. But if you excel in solving puzzles and have a deeper study and exploration of puzzles, you will find the fact that this puzzle actually has its own origin and source.

    Brazier puzzle is essentially a remake of the electronic puzzle game “Lights Out” released by Tiger Electronics in 1995, which requires you to light all braziers to claim the prize. Although it sounds simple, for those players who are not equipped with enough puzzle knowledge, this task becomes a tough challenge.

    Solution To Brazier Puzzle

    Once you have successfully tracked this puzzle down, whether during the journey looking for Akarat’s tomb or searching cellars for treasure, please get ready for straining your head.

    The overall game rules are very simple, lighting up all braziers to open the door at the far end of the room. Based on the design of the game, when you light one brazier, the state of two braziers directly approaching it–but not diagonal to it–will be changed simultaneously.

    In other words, if the adjacent braziers are previously lit, they will be extinguished after you light the target brazier. This is also the trickiest part of the entire process.

    In “All Good Things” questline, since there are only four braziers, the overall difficulty is reduced. The one-step solution is to imagine these four braziers as points on a compass. The brazier closest to the entrance is the southern one, and the brazier closest to the exit is the northern one. Then light them up in the following order:

    • West
    • South
    • West
    • North
    • East
    • West

    This way you can light up all the braziers effortlessly. If you have messed up the order before getting this answer, you need to exit the game and reset it to help you get back to the previous step. Then solve the puzzle in the order stated above.

    Or if you are usually very interested in solving puzzles, you can also try to solve it yourself to add a little fun and challenge to your thrilling game journey.

    In the process of solving the puzzle, you must also prevent the enemy’s attack. But overall, these bad guys are not too troublesome and are relatively easy to defeat. If you choose to seek to the correct order by trial and error, then it will drastically intensify the danger that you are going to encounter.

    Once you have accomplished this puzzle smoothly, the way leading to the next stage will be automatically unlocked and you are available to access to the last trial and Akarat’s tomb with Eru and Neyrelle.

    All Good Things Questline

    All Good Things serves as the main questline that is exclusive to Vessel of Hatred DLC. Completing “In His Footsteps” quest will automatically unlock “All Good Things”.

    As a main quest, players must complete a specific storyline to get the eligibility to the next difficulty level. And you are required to accomplish the challenges lie below:

    • Enter Tomb of Akarat
    • Find Burial Chamber with Eru and Neyrelle
    • Defend Neyrelle while she accomplishes the trial
    • Speak with Eru
    • Slay Forgotten Warden
    • Enter Burial Chamber with Eru and Neyrelle
    • Survive the Onslaught
    • Collect Akarat’s Power
    • Slay Harbinger of Hate
    • Speak with Neyrelle
    • Head to Reflection’s Edge by portal

    Solving the brazier puzzle earns you the right to enter Burial Chamber with Eru and Neyrelle.

    Rewards For Completing All Good Things

    After successfully completing All Good Things, Vessel of Hatred expansion is basically over. Want to know the ending? Then figure out the puzzle to search for the answer by yourself.

    That’s the way to figure out the brazier puzzle in Vessel of Hatred DLC. If you have not mastered the keys, then reset this part and try the order that mentioned above to kick off the next journey.

  • Diablo 4 DLC: What Are The Characteristics Of The Three New Monster Families? - Hollows, Dregs & Lacuni

    Posted: Nov 05, 2024

    Diablo 4 Vessel of Hatred brings players a brand new adventure, not only deepening the game’s story background but also greatly enriching the game’s content by introducing the character of Neyrelle and her exploration journey in Nahantu jungle.

    In addition, the expansion also adds a very powerful profession - Spiritborn, which has attracted the attention of many players with its unique skills and combat style. Vessel of Hatred has also made a lot of optimizations and improvements to the basic game experience, making the whole game smoother and more attractive.

    However, besides the obvious changes mentioned above, Vessel of Hatred has quietly added three new monster families, bringing players an unprecedented challenge experience. The three newly added monsters are Hollows, Dregs, and Lacuni. Although Lacuni is not a completely unfamiliar existence, it has made a brief appearance in the previous game. Read this guide to learn more about each new monster family.

    Hollows

    The birth of Hollows is closely related to Neyrelle’s adventure. As Neyrelle travels deep into the mysterious jungles of Nahantu, she accidentally touches Mephisto’s soul stone and is burned by the powerful corruption it emanates.

    In an attempt to ease the pain, she dips her injured hand and soul stone into water in an attempt to cool them down. However, this action has an unexpected consequence, as Mephisto’s corruption quickly spreads across the entire Nahantu region.

    Over time, this black, tar-like corruption gradually coalesces and forms into Hollows. These creatures, made of corrupt matter, are numerous and extremely aggressive, and they begin to pose a great threat to the people and cities in the surrounding area.

    Players will first encounter this new family of monsters shortly after meeting Raheir. With such powerful and strange enemies, it may be a good idea to obtain more Diablo 4 Gold to equip your character faster.

    Dregs

    Another new family of monsters that attracts attention are Dregs. Unlike other creatures in the game, Dregs are not born monsters, but are actually once humans. These unfortunate souls were driven into a state of uncontrollable psychosis by tasting a hallucinogen found in Nahantu’s flora and fauna.

    Over time, these once normal humans gradually lost their minds and became one enemy that players face in the game today. They roam the deep jungles of Nahantu and have become a threat that cannot be ignored.

    Lacuni

    Lacuni are the only creatures that are familiar to veteran players of the series. However, this race has undergone significant changes throughout the development of Diablo series, and has undergone major adjustments and evolutions in both appearance and combat style, making their return a familiar and fresh experience for players.

    Lacuni are highly intelligent and aggressive feline bipedal creatures, commonly referred to as “Panther-men” or “Sabre Cats.”

    Lacuni social structure is similar to the group model of lions, showing the characteristics of a patriarchal society. In this system, male Lacuni are usually more robust and stronger, which makes them naturally take on the role of leaders in the tribe. In contrast, female Lacuni have shown excellent hunting skills and become an indispensable female hunter within the family.

    The origins of Lacuni can be traced back to Kehjistan, where they originally maintained a relatively harmonious relationship with humans. There was frequent exchange of goods between the two races, forming a mutually beneficial situation. However, the good times did not last long.

    As time went by, especially around Darkening of Tristram, because of some unknown reasons, the relationship between the two sides deteriorated sharply, and Lacuni began to show strong hostility towards the surrounding world. Since then, this once friendly race has gradually developed into one of the most well-known and threatening existences in Diablo series.

    In Diablo 4 Vessel of Hatred, this classic monster family appears again. This time they appear in Teganze Plateau area of ​​the new Nahantu region. Here, Lacuni will not only use traditional melee weapons to attack but also use long-range means such as javelins and throwing grenades to fight against players who dare to enter their territory.

    It is worth noting that Lacuni first appeared in Diablo 2, and it is particularly appropriate that they return this time and become one of the main enemies of Nahantu - because Nahantu is also one map that was first introduced to the game world in Diablo 2.

    This design consistency not only enhances the consistency of the storyline of the entire series but also makes old players feel familiar, while also attracting new players to explore more about the story behind this world.

    By introducing these new monster families, Diablo 4 Vessel of Hatred not only provides players with a richer and more diverse gaming experience but also deepens the game’s story background and worldview. Hollows, Dregs, and Lacuni each have unique background stories and combat styles.

    Their existence not only increases the complexity and challenge of the game but also brings new exploration fun to players. In order to defeat them more easily, you can follow Giveaway channel in IGGM discord, which will release information about Diablo 4 related products from time to time.

  • Diablo 4 DLC: New Class And Dungeon Invite Comparisons With Path Of Exile

    Posted: Oct 31, 2024

    Diablo 4 has always been compared to Path of Exile, because the source of inspiration of the latter comes from Diablo 2 and they share the same ARPG roots. Although the two games have many similarities, there are also some important differences, such as the aspect of ARPG core gameplay loop.

    In terms of the presentation of game content, Diablo 4 and Path of Exile have also developed in their own ways, with the former giving much emphasis in reinvention, while the latter pays much attention to the persistent improvement over the course of more than 10 years.

    New Vessel of Hatred expansion of Diablo 4 has introduced one of the most polished and overwhelming classes - Spiritborn, which features a variety of different combinations of skills and powerful builds that can be chosen. But the addition of this new class has caused players to discuss character construction, especially the comparison of class design of Path of Exile. This issue is more prominent.

    Kurast Undercity in Vessel of Hatred campaign provides new inspiration and reference points for the upcoming Path of Exile 2, which is bound to cause a new wave of discussion.

    This article mainly discusses the comparison and discussion between the game and Path of Exile caused by the addition of Spiritborn and Kurast Undercity in Vessel of Hatred.

    Path of Exile Offers A Recipe For Class Design

    Spiritborn has undoubtedly become the first choice for the majority of players. Whether in terms of character strength or game experience, Spiritborn has been widely praised. For game developers, it is the most beneficial choice to introduce more classes in subsequent series.

    But if the seventh class is really introduced, Diablo 4 risks overshadowing all other classes like what Spiritborn did. This undoubtedly puts the character mechanism into a dead end and invites complaints among players.

    Therefore, Diablo 4 needs to draw lessons from Path of Exile, and achieve innovation and balance of classes by adding two or more subclasses to each class. And that is to say Path of Exile’s class system is exactly what Diablo 4 is desperate for.

    Ascendancy system contributes to the base ground of Path of Exile, which features three specializations for each base class.

    Path of Exile features seven base classes and 19 Ascendancy classes. This is enough to support the creation of more build options.

    Each Ascendancy class is designed to offer the base classes with new, multiple power-ups, which are not available to be unlocked at once. Therefore, players may repeatedly make the same class and constantly try new builds to fully utilize the character’s potential.

    Path of Exile’s subclasses mechanism supports character customization, which features a three-dimensional imagine. This design is easier said than done, not to mention that Diablo 4 has never tried it before. But we still expect a huge ideological update in class designs for Diablo series.

    Spiritborn and Druid in Diablo 4 Vessel of Hatred DLC attracted comparisons early on, and were considered having too many similarities. Therefore, whether it is to innovate new classes or adjust existing classes, the problem of class design is very urgent.

    Kurast Undercity Is The Epitome Of Endgame

    Here is what Path of Exile should learn from Vessel of Hatred DLC - Kurast Undercity endgame mechanic.

    Kurast Undercity serves as one of two new contents of endgame at the end of Diablo 4 Vessel of Hatred campaign. It is a timed trial with adjustable difficulty and rewards.

    Players can not only run Kurast Undercity according to the basic settings of the game, but also add multiple modifiers to increase the difficulty and customize the type and quality of rewards they receive. This is especially applicable to those players who have gotten the deep known of various new Torment difficulty levels and excel the potential of their builds by devoting some Diablo 4 Gold.

    Kurast Undercity brings players a customizable gaming experience. Under the assistance of modifiers, players can challenge various difficulties and continue to dig out more new things. The difficulty is proportional to the rewards obtained. This mechanism makes players willing to spend time and effort to embrace those charming loot.

    But it is not the same case in Path of Exile. In the endgame, Path of Exile is pretty demanding in the aspects of currency investment for high-end content such as T16 or T17 Maps. Generally speaking, the best loot usually appears at the end of the game or even after fighting the ultimate boss, unless you use those gears with farming-specific affixes.

    Path of Exile only provides 6 chances to clear each map, which is a rather strenuous task for most players. Especially regarding the endgame content, it often makes players feel stressed and frustrated because it is too difficult.

    But on the other side, Kurast Undercity reward players even better loot and class-specific Uniques, which makes players surprised and exciting.

    Because, in the upcoming Path of Exile 2, we expect an endgame mode that is similar to highly customizable Kurast Undercity and gives us more encouraging contents and rewards.

    Path of Exile 2 has received much attention recently, and the activities like Kurast Undercity can not only attract new players but also refresh old players. Even if it adopts a paid model, it is worth a try.

    The above is the content about Spiritborn and Kurast Undercity in Diablo 4 Vessel of Hatred DLC that has aroused much discussion. For more real-time consultation, please enter IGGM discord, and there will often be raffles held in Giveaway channel. Thanks for reading.

  • Diablo 4 DLC: How To Make A Fast Paced AoE Build? - Endgame Rake Spiritborn Build Guide

    Posted: Oct 30, 2024

    Since Spiritborn was introduced in Diablo 4 Vessel of Hatred, players have been eager to know how to best build this class. This guide will provide you with an option that is particularly suitable for players who pursue fast AoE combat - Endgame Rake Spiritborn Build.

    Rake Spiritborn Build Explained

    Endgame Rake Spiritborn relies mainly on two key characteristics of Rake: high damage output and low Vigor consumption per stack of Ferocity. Through careful selection of equipment and use of Duelist’s Aspect, it is possible to achieve almost unlimited casting of Rake while maintaining high damage.

    This setup is very suitable for scenarios with numerous enemies to be cleared quickly. However, this build lacks in survivability. Therefore, it becomes particularly important to rely on Defensive Aspects and Elixirs to improve survivability in the late game.

    Ability Point Distribution

    Ability Point Distribution of Endgame Rake Build relies almost entirely on Jaguar Skills and Passives.

    Basic Node

    • Thrash 1/5
    • Enhanced Thrash

    Core Node

    • Rake 5/5
    • Enhanced Rake
    • Rampant Rake
    • Vigorous 3/3
    • Balanced Exertion 3/3
    • Velocity 3/3

    Focus Node

    • Vortex 1/5
    • Enhanced Vortex
    • Replenishing Vortex
    • Ravage 5/5
    • Enhanced Ravager
    • Replenishing Ravager
    • Focal Point 1/3

    Defensive Node

    • Counter Attack 5/5
    • Enhanced Counter Attack
    • Reinforced Counter Attack
    • Endurance 3/3
    • Perserverence 3/3
    • Fueled 3/3

    Potency Node

    • Brilliance 3/3
    • Acceleration 3/3
    • Potent 3/3
    • Furnace 3/3

    Ultimate Node

    • Hunter 5/5
    • Harmonious Hunter
    • Exhalted Hunter
    • Resolution 1/3
    • Spiritual Attunement 2/3
    • Supremacy 3/3

    Spirit Hall Choices

    This build performs well largely because of the first Eagle Spirit Bonus. This choice brings a significant movement speed increase, allowing the character to move around the map more quickly, thus speeding up the clearing of the jungle. In addition, Eagle Spirit also provides Acceleration and Brilliance Passives for Jaguar Skills, so all skills can enjoy the benefits brought by Eagle Spirit, greatly enhancing the overall combat effectiveness.

    As for the second slot, it is occupied by Jaguar Spirit. Not only can it stack Ferocity on every kill, but more importantly, it can increase the maximum Ferocity Stacks by 1 point.

    Best Slot Equipment

    In this build, there is a fixed Aspect that is indispensable. In addition, there are some specific Aspects that can significantly improve the player’s survivability and speed up the clearing. However, if you have enough Diablo 4 Gold to acquire the following three unique items, you will also be able to further optimize the gameplay experience and combat efficiency.

    • Banished Lord’s Talisman: Provides a level increase in all core skills, and can increase the damage of Overpowered and Critically Striking casts.
    • Mother’s Embrace: Greatly extends the ability of Rake to fight through Resource refund, while also granting Attack Speed, Critical Strike Chance, and base Stats.
    • Peacemonger’s Signet: Gain an additional Resolve whenever you gain Ferocity.

    Mythic Uniques

    Nesekem the Herald has an unexpectedly powerful feature in this build that makes it a worthy choice in certain situations. First, Nesekem can effectively stack Overpower, Critical Strike damage, and attack speed, which is particularly important for improving performance in boss battles. When used in conjunction with Rake build, this combination can significantly increase the player’s damage output against powerful enemies.

    And since the build’s required aspects don’t include any direct attack boosts, using Nesekem doesn’t sacrifice the other important benefits of Legendary slot.

    Best Aspects

    • Duelist’s Aspect
    • Aspect of the Crowded Sage
    • Aspect of Assimilation

    Duelist’s Aspect increases maximum Ferocity to 14 stacks for the biggest damage boost. Aspect of the Crowded Sage and Aspect of Assimilation increase Dodge Chance.

    High Priority Stats

    Statistics affect a character’s combat effectiveness. Here are the stats, loosely ordered by priority:

    • Ranks of Rake
    • Ranks of Counterattack
    • Armor to 1000
    • Resistance to cap
    • Dexterity
    • Dodge Chance
    • Maximum Life
    • Attack Speed
    • Critical Strike Damage
    • Overpower Damage
    • Maximum Vigor
    • Critical Strike Chance

    Tempering Choices

    There are many powerful Temper choices for players to choose from in this build. For example, Manuals of Jaguar Innovation, Worldly Endurance, Jaguar Finesse and Worldly Finesse. Players want the following:

    • Rake size up to 100%
    • Ravager duration increase on kill to 100%
    • Increased Dodge Chance whenever possible
    • Chance for Rake to trigger an extra time
    • Jaguar Damage Increase
    • Core Damage Increase

    Gems & Runewords

    When considering equipment slots, players should first focus on YulXan - Pugilist’s Extinction runeword combination. This combination ensures that players can perform Critical Strikes and Overpowers when using skills with cooldowns, giving them an advantage in combat.

    Next, for the remaining armor slots, it is recommended to fill them with Diamonds. When choosing jewelry, players should prioritize capping all resistances. If resistances are already at maximum, then consider inserting Skulls.

    Paragon Board Choices

    • Start - Fitness
    • In Fighter - Exploit
    • Revealing - Spirit
    • Bitter Medicine - Hone
    • Sapping - Turf

    Glyph Leveling Order

    When upgrading glyphs, priority should be in the following order:

    • Fitness
    • Spirit
    • Hone
    • Exploit
    • Turf

    Mercenary & Reinforcement Choices

    For Mercenary, when choosing Subo, players should specify either Pin Cushion or Bargaining Chip Key passive, depending on their preference for core abilities. If Aldkin is chosen, players can choose between Paranoia Key Passive or Condemmed Key Passive.

    In this build, Raheir is the preferred Reinforcement because of his unique ability to taunt enemies and effectively reduce the damage taken by teammates. To maximize this advantage, it is recommended to choose Provoke and set it to automatically trigger when the player is damaged.

    This way, whenever a team member is attacked and injured, Raheir can immediately take action to attract enemy fire through provocation, thereby gaining more living space and counterattack opportunities for other team members.

    I hope this guide can help you better use Spiritborn character in Diablo 4 Vessel of Hatred and enjoy the fun of the game. If you encounter insufficient equipment, you can also pay attention to Diablo 4 Season 6 giveaway event that has been going on in IGGM discord, and leave your favorite emoji to participate in the lottery.

  • Diablo 4 DLC: What Can You Do To Make Touch Of Death Spiritborn Build More Powerful? - Skill & Guardian Spirits & Mercenary

    Posted: Oct 30, 2024

    In Diablo 4’s first expansion Vessel of Hatred, players have many more builds to choose from because of the addition of new classes and mercenary mechanisms. I believe many players want to try the new Spiritborn, but don’t know how to choose the best build for it.

    Don’t worry, if you are a person who likes to use some poison to damage the enemy in the basic game, then Touch of Death Spiritborn Build that this guide will introduce to you will be your best choice. In addition to the super high damage, the methods used by the entire build in combat are also very simple, and you can even spend the endgame stage very leisurely.

    Of course, the ability of an optimal build still depends on the skill tree and some items you choose for it, especially now that there is a new mechanism called Mercenary, which greatly affects the ability of this build. So this guide will give you a detailed introduction on Touch of Death Spiritborn Build’s Skill Tree, Guardian Spirits and choice for Mercenary for you to explore easily.

    About Touch Of Death Spiritborn Build

    First, let’s introduce Touch of Death Spiritborn Build, which is a very powerful build with high damage and high survivability. Although its mobility is not as good as other Spiritborn Builds, and it is not good in terms of rapid farming ability, its high damage can make some enemies or bosses instantly defeated when they enter the range.

    So in order to achieve the best effect, Insatiable Aspect must be placed in the build, because it can maximize the effect of the most core skill of the build, Poised Touch of Death - every time you kill an enemy, you will increase the duration of this skill, and it will cause explosion damage after a period. These abilities turn this skill that was originally difficult to coherent groups of enemies into a versatile skill, and single target damage is also preserved.

    Skill Tree

    One thing we need to make clear is that in this build, our first focus is on Touch of Death as the main damage dealer, and secondly, choose some defensive skills to improve the survivability of the build. This will make your skill points and Diablo 4 Gold spent much more valuable.

    The following is the skill tree you can build in Touch of Death Spiritborn Build and some skill points. You can also change it accordingly according to your play style.

    Basic Node

    • Rock Splitter (1/5) - Enhanced Rock Splitter

    Core Node

    • Vigorous (3/3)
    • Velocity (1/3)

    Focus Node

    • Toxic Skin (5/5) - Enhanced Toxic Skin & Measured Toxic Skin
    • Mirage (1/3)
    • Unrestrained Power (3/3)
    • Focal Point (2/3)
    • Diminishment (2/3)
    • Apex (3/3)

    Defensive Node

    • Armored Hide (4/5)
    • Scourge (1/5) - Enhanced Scourge & Reinforced Scourge
    • Endurance (3/3)
    • Perserverence (3/3)
    • Patient Guard (1/3)
    • Antivenom (3/3)
    • Nourishment (3/3)

    Potency Node

    • Touch of Death (5/5) - Enhanced Touch of Death & Poised Touch of Death
    • Resilient (3/3)
    • Vehemence (3/3)
    • Ravenous (3/3)
    • Oppressive (3/3)

    Ultimate

    • The Seeker (1/5) - Harmonious Seeker & Exalted Seeker

    Key Passive

    In this build, Key Passive you can choose is Noxious Resonance. Because this will cause your Critical Strikes to cooperate with the poison effect you previously applied to the enemy, causing explosive damage. However, it should be noted that you need to choose some Diablo 4 Items that can increase Critical Strikes Chance in your build to maximize the effect of this passive skill.

    Spirit Hall Choices

    In the new Spiritborn Class, you pick two Guardian Spirits and designate them as Primary and Secondary, which sets the playstyle for the build. In Touch of Death Spiritborn build, you have the choice between Centipede and Jaguar, though it relies on Gorilla Guardian Spirit abilities.

    Primary

    Centipede is the best choice for Primary Guardian, as it reduces all enemy damage and gets some poison damage from Craze of the Dead God Gloves to use with your abilities. On top of that, it also slows down enemies, which are great for those with more agility.

    Secondary

    Jaguar Guardian Spirit gives the build a way to generate Ferocity, which is required to activate Ring of the Midday Hunt's passive ability. This causes all poison damage DoTs inflicted on enemies to deal with the same amount of damage as normal over a 30-second period.

    Mercenary Choices

    When choosing a Mercenary for a Touch of Death Spiritborn build, you need to focus on who can make enemies vulnerable faster and who can cause longer-lasting Crowd Control. The only two that meet both criteria are Raheir and Varyana.

    Like Guardian Spirits, you also need to choose a Mercenary as your first choice. Raheir’s ability to heal you and transfer your damage to it makes it a worthy Mercenary. Also, this will give you a better chance of surviving to pick up Diablo 4 Gold that enemies drop after the battle.

    Or if you’re more focused on the combat experience, you can also choose Subo, which can cause the enemy to be vulnerable. But the same thing is that you need to use Varyana as your Reinforcement and choose the Earthbreaker ability that you can trigger when you cast Scourge. This will make it more difficult for enemies to escape the poison cloud, and your Oppressive passive can be better cast.

    These are some of the skill trees, Guardian Spirits, and Mercenaries you can choose for the Touch of Death Spiritborn Build in the Diablo 4 Vessel of Hatred DLC. It should be noted here that all choices are calculated based on the best state, and you can also modify them according to your own gameplay.

  • Diablo 4 DLC: What Features Are Urgently Needed To Be Added In Future DLC?

    Posted: Oct 29, 2024

    While many new features and improvements have been introduced in Diablo 4 Vessel Of Hatred, players are still looking forward to more features added in future updates to enhance the gaming experience. Here are some things players hope to see in subsequent DLC or updates.

    1. Add Detailed Areas

    Nahantu is a striking new area in Diablo 4, featuring its overgrown jungles, ancient runes. The atmosphere and music of the area are reminiscent of Diablo 2, providing players with an experience that is deep into the game world.

    Nahantu is one of the few areas in Diablo’s map that offers this level of complexity and detail. Future expansions should focus on a brand new area that can match the complexity and variety of Nahantu to increase players’ immersion and satisfaction when exploring the map.

    2. Pets With Abilities

    Pets are a popular decoration for players, mainly used to collect loot. But apart from visual appeal, they have little use and require a lot of Diablo 4 Gold to obtain. To improve the player experience, pets can be updated to better help players, such as adding minor buffs, health points or distracting enemies. This change will probably add depth to players’ tactics and progression.

    3. Add Endgame Content

    While Diablo 4 Vessel Of Hatred brings new life to the game’s endgame content, adding more complex and interesting world bosses, a variety of new randomized events, and more global challenges will greatly improve the game, which will be very attractive to players who have completed the main story and are at a high level.

    4. Improve Mount System

    Mounts in Diablo 4 not only provide players with a fast and efficient way to move around, but can also be aesthetically adjusted according to player preferences. However, the potential of the mount system is far more than that, and it has enormous room for development to further enhance the player’s gaming experience and engagement.

    In future game updates, developers can consider introducing upgradeable abilities such as combat moves, defensive skills, acceleration, etc., which will increase the fun and strategy of the game and encourage players to explore the mount system more deeply.

    5. Increase The Drop Rate Of Iron Chunks And Leather

    Iron chunks and leather are important materials for crafting and upgrading gear, imprinting aspects, and tempering gear. Players need to collect these resources by exploring regions, strongholds, and world tiers.

    However, the scarcity of these materials causes players to have to repeatedly farm the same areas to obtain the required amount, which affects the gaming experience. Especially at higher levels, the material requirements increase and the problem is more serious. Future expansions can consider increasing the drop rate and discovery locations of these materials to reduce the player’s farming time.

    6. Introduce More Types Of Mercenaries

    In Diablo 4 Vessel of Hatred, Mercenaries have powerful passive abilities, including Raheir (a tank), Subo (an archer), Aldkin (a mage), and Varyana (a berserker). Each ability increases the diversity of tactics and makes the gaming experience richer.

    Players can choose the right Mercenaries according to their needs. To further enrich the gaming experience, the developers should introduce more types of Mercenaries in the next expansion, each with unique passive abilities, allowing players to tailor strategies to their own play style.

    7. Increase Bag Space

    The current limited inventory forces players to spend a lot of time managing items, which not only interrupts the game experience, but also reduces the fun. Diablo series is known for its large amount of loot, but the current bag space limit has frustrated many players. Expanding the bag space will reduce the game interruptions caused by organizing the bag, allowing players to collect and utilize resources more efficiently.

    8. More Activity Contents

    The game loop can easily become monotonous for players, especially at high levels. The new cooperative area “Dark Citadel” introduces new game mechanics and increases the variety of gameplay, requiring at least two players to conquer different parts together.

    The next expansion of Diablo 4 should provide activities beyond normalized ‘spin-to-win’ mechanics or basic dungeon crawling, by introducing more additional content to give players a reason to return to the game after the character has reached the maximum.

    9. More New Classes

    Vessel of Hatred adds Spiritborn class, an agile and mobile warrior who can lead four distinct spirit guardians. Each guardian provides unique attack effects. The new classes have been a tremendous success, bringing players a new combat experience that complements the new regions and new content.

    The addition of new classes in future expansions will ensure the game’s replay ability, allowing players to try more play styles, adding much-needed endgame variety, and making each enemy encounter more exciting.

    10. Further Customization And Evolution Beyond Levels 45-50

    After reaching level 50, many players find that their build progress has stagnated. To stimulate enthusiasm for upgrading and replay interest, future expansions can introduce new mechanics, such as further customization and evolution beyond levels 45-50, and challenges that provide permanent gains (such as using a specific skill multiple times).

    This will help eliminate some of the tedium of the build process and give players more motivation to continue exploring the game world.

    Developers can consider adding these long-awaited content to future expansions. These updates will not only meet players’ demand for fresh content, but also deepen players’ investment and enjoyment of Diablo 4.

  • Diablo 4 DLC: How Does New PvP Mode Make Gameplay More Competitive?

    Posted: Oct 28, 2024

    Taking advantage of its gothic atmosphere, intricate narrative, and rewarding gameplay, Diablo 4 has successfully attracted the attention of mountains of players since its release.

    The most noticeable feature in the game comes from the player-versus-player (PvP) combat system. And Diablo 4 Vessel of Hatred expansion makes significant improvements and enhancements to this system, which signals a great leap towards the competitive scene and adds a layer of tension and strategy that has never felt before.

    Vessel of Hatred DLC is targeted at creating a more dynamic and brutal experience, changing the way to engage in PvP. It creates a mind-boggling risk-reward dynamic by leveraging the game’s dark world. And it features an exciting cat-and-mouse chase that highlights the significance of competition.

    Let’s take a closer lol at how this competitive PvP mode being improved in Vessel of Hatred DLC.

    Shards Of Hatred Invites More Competition

    As players engage in PvP and collect Shards of Hatred, they will be “tagged” as Vessels of Hatred. This will undoubtedly make the tagged players the focus of attention. They will not only encounter the challenges in the game but also prohibit yourself from being snatched away by other competitors for Shards.

    So once you are tagged. It is recommended to equip those powerful items which achieve perfect coordination with your class in an instant by devoting some Diablo 4 Gold to help confront those potential threats.

    After all, once you are tagged, you will be listed as a high-priority target. This mechanic breathes new life into competitive combat in Sanctuary because it intensifies the combat encounters in Fields of Hatred. Moreover, once players find a common target, alliances will form, which is filled with coalition, betrayal and climactic showdowns.

    It intensify sense of danger and helps cultivate a new aspect of tactical play, which gives much emphasis on positioning, timing, and deception. Compared to previous combat modes, Vessel of Hatred will feature fewer unpredictable, random encounters and more planned and purposeful confrontations.

    This PvP interaction is overwhelmed with danger and urgency. Because if you want to survive, you must constantly assess the risks of your surroundings and fight wisely.

    The more Shards Of Hatred players accumulate, the greater the risk, but the potential reward is that their combat capabilities will escalate. Players with Shards of Hatred are available to make two different choices: defend their Shards or give them away and clear their status.

    This requires critical thinking based on the specific situation. Indeed, strength and courage are rewarded and on the contrary, overconfidence is punished. As an exciting risk-reward dynamic, Shards of Hatred mechanism makes those most experienced Diablo 4 players feel tricky to deal with.

    Rivalries And Alliances

    Vessel of Hatred DLC set an overall goal for PvP encounters, which creates fierce competition and alliances within the community. Those legendary figure who rise their name of notorious Vessels of Hatred serves as the object that other players aspire and fight with.

    The game encourages more cooperation between players and guild mates, whether it is to protect their own Vessel from being deprived or hunt down a Vessel all together. This creates a new sense of camaraderie and competition, which is obviously absent from previous series.

    The fact that your closest ally may be your potential rival definitely adds another layer of unpredictability to the game. Competition or cooperation in a group easily renders trust a fragile commodity and betrayal an uneliminated threat. Therefore, you will face not only pure combat but also a social game with communication and strategy as a big factor.

    The main communication channels are concentrated in forums, Discord servers and in-game chat.

    Future Impact Of PvP

    Vessel of Hatred’s PvP change can not be viewed as a simple mechanic, but an indispensable step in reforming the future of Diablo 4’s competitive landscape. The introduction of this high-risk PvP factor redefines the way to engage in competitive play in Sanctuary.

    PvP is not limited to random battles and the reign over a small patch of land. That is to say, even if you win the battle, it does not mean that you are the strongest. You are also required to deal with complicated sociality to decide when to fight, when to run away, along with who to trust.

    The most exciting aspect of this improved PvP mechanic is its huge development potential. It’s conceivable that in the next few seasons, Vessels will have a lot of control over the outcome of PvP zones and certain activities. This may force players to make tough decisions about which objectives to prioritize. And we do expect to see more surprises that PvP mode will bring in the future.

    That’s how PvP mode improvements affect gameplay in Diablo 4 Vessel of Hatred expansion which deserves to be given more attention and focus. For more advice or guides, please enter IGGM discord, and there are lucky draws being held from time to time in its Giveaway channel. Thanks for reading.

  • Diablo 4 DLC: What Special Highlights And Free Benefits Are Coming To The Upcoming Halloween Event? - October 29 - November 5

    Posted: Oct 26, 2024

    Diablo 4’s Vessel of Hatred expansion has been released for a while, and many players have completed the storyline in DLC and experienced the fun of Spiritborn. However, the game did not stop because of a successful update. Instead, it is making final preparations for the upcoming Halloween event.

    According to official news, Diablo 4 will officially launch the “macabre celebration” Halloween event at 10 am Pacific Time on October 29, and it will last until the same time on November 5.

    During this period, all participating players will receive a series of limited-time free store items as rewards. In addition, a particularly noteworthy highlight is Butcher-exclusive “Meat or Treat” Dungeon Shrine modifier, which will also be available during this period. This means that players can explore more different game content through this interesting mechanism.

    For players who like Diablo 4 series and want to spend a Halloween holiday full of surprises and fun in the game, it is definitely worth logging in to the game during this period. Whether you want to collect rare items, accumulate Diablo 4 Gold, or just feel the festive atmosphere, the “macabre celebration” can meet your needs.

    Free Goodies

    Diablo 4’s Halloween event brings a series of exciting benefits to players, the most notable of which is that during the event, players can get free store items by simply logging into the game. This generous move can make every participant feel the sincerity of the development team and the importance of the player community.

    Specifically, starting from October 29, a new cosmetic item will be available in the store every day for players to receive for free. Each cosmetic item has a unique design. It should be noted that although Halloween event itself will last until November 5, the free cosmetic items will end on November 1. Besides the free cosmetics, Diablo 4’s Halloween event also includes the following free items:

    • October 29: Recluse’s Host Mount
    • October 30: Ichorflame Torch Mount Trophy
    • October 31: Recluse’s Flask Mount Trophy
    • November 1: Reclusive Trappings Mount Armor

    In Diablo 4’s Halloween event, October 29 marks the start of a series of unique and seasonal free mounts and loot for players to claim in the in-game store. First up is Recluse’s Host Mount, a uniquely designed zombie horse with a decayed flesh and empty eye sockets that perfectly fit the horror theme of Halloween, adding a festive touch to players’ rides through the vast world of Sanctuary.

    Then, on the next day, October 30, players can claim Ichorflame Torch Mount Trophy, a creative item featuring a large recluse spider with one side clasping a burning flame, adding a mysterious and powerful aura to the player’s character.

    On the last day of the event, November 1, the store will offer Reclusive Trappings Mount Armor, a piece of armor designed specifically for the aforementioned zombie horse, which is covered in dense spider webs to make its entire body more terrifying and also strengthen the mount’s defense capabilities.

    During this Halloween event, players do not need to log in to the game every day to claim the free items. Each date marks the time when the item is available in the store, and players can claim it after the item is available until November 5 at 12 noon Pacific Time.

    Therefore, as long as players log in once between November 1 and November 5, they can claim all the free decorative items offered by the event.

    A Dungeon Modifier

    Diablo 4 also launched Butcher’s ‘Meat or Treat’ event during Halloween event. The essence of this event lies in its influence mechanism on Dungeon Shrines. When players activate any Dungeon Shrines during the event, they may trigger this special effect. Once activated, Shrines will show different “surprise” effects from the usual, which may include additional loot, enhanced attributes or other unexpected gains.

    However, although these surprise effects are tempting, they may also be accompanied by certain risks and challenges, which will have unpredictable negative effects on the operation of the dungeon.

    Therefore, for players who are eager to explore and experience this event, how to wisely choose when and where to activate the dungeon shrine during the event from October 29 to November 5 has become an important strategic consideration.

    Although Diablo 4’s Halloween event may not include a lot of substantial game content updates, it is worth being able to receive a few new cosmetic items for free during the holiday. In addition, regarding Butcher’s game of “Meat or Treat,” Diablo 4 development team has maintained a mysterious silence and has not clearly informed players of the specific advantages and disadvantages they will face after activating a Dungeon Shrine.

    Players need to explore and experience the event content in person after the event starts in order to discover the secrets and surprises. This may mean that activating a Dungeon Shrine after the event is officially launched may bring some unexpected benefits.
