Barbarians are known for engaging directly in combat and using a variety of melee weapons to fight against the armies of Hell. In particular, Upheaval Barbarians can use their weapons to shake the ground and throw debris at their enemies.
Although this style of Barbarians may not be as popular as those who focus on Bash or Whirlwind, in Diablo 4, the game’s loot opportunities continue to strengthen, improving the player experience by increasing drop rates and providing a variety of Unique boosts. These unique items may not only enhance the player’s damage output but also significantly improve the class skills and help players defeat various bosses and many enemies.
Among them, a Hellhammer Unique can significantly improve Upheaval skill of Upheaval Barbarians and destroy everything that stands in their way. For Barbarians other than Upheaval Barbarians, Azurewrath Unique sword is a top of the equipment list because it can freeze enemies, effectively controlling the battlefield. This guide will explore how to obtain and effectively find Hellhammer and Azurewrath in Diablo 4.
How To Get Hellhammer Unique?
To start collecting Hellhammer in Diablo 4, you need to reach World Tier 3 or World Tier 4, and then try to get it by opening chests or defeating enemies in different areas of the game. The most effective way to increase the chance of getting this kind of item is to participate in endgame content and World Events. In addition, entering Nightmare Dungeons with Nightmare Sigils is also a good way to get Hellhammer Unique.
Challenging Uber Bosses is the most efficient way to collect Hellhammer Unique. You can choose to challenge Beast in the Ice in Glacial Fissure, Fractured Peaks. This boss has two variants, base one and Tormented one, and both are only available in World Tier 4. Tormented one has the highest drop rate, and it is also more challenging.
Before challenging base Beast in the Ice, you first need to complete Tier 30+ Nightmare Dungeons or endgame activities to obtain 9 Distilled Fear, which can then be summoned. The challenge of Tormented Beast in the Ice requires not only 27 Distilled Fear, but also a Stygian Stone after completing a Pit run and opening a chest reward before it can be summoned.
Pit is a difficult endgame activity challenge for novice players. When facing these powerful Tormented Bosses, players can use Diablo 4 Gold to obtain some items for powerful meta builds to challenge alone or team up with other players.
How To Get Azurewrath Unique?
To obtain Azurewrath, this unique sword, you should also reach World Tier 3 or World Tier 4, although the random drop rate of Azurewrath by defeating enemies and opening chests is relatively low, but it is a method. If you want to increase the drop rate of Azurewrath, you can participate in the game’s endgame activities such as World Bosses, completing Gathering Legions, or running Nightmare Dungeons.
Focusing on Duriel, King of Maggots, and Echo of Andariel will give you a more targeted chance of getting Azurewrath. This unique sword is part of the loot pool for these two Uber Bosses. Once you have the summoning materials mentioned below, you can then repeatedly challenge these two bosses to increase your chances of getting it.
First, defeat Echo of Varshan and Grigoire, Galvanic Saint in Gaping Crevasse, Kehjistan to get two Mucus-Slick Eggs and two Shard of Agony, respectively. Once you have these summoning materials, you can then summon Duriel. If you want to summon Tormented Duriel, you will need not only six Mucus-Slick Eggs and six Shard of Agony, but you will also need to complete Pit Run and get Stygian Stone.
Unlike summoning Duriel, to summon Andariel, you will need to defeat Lord Zir, Dark Master in Hanged Man’s Hall, Kehjistan to get two Sandscorched Shackles and defeat Beast in the Ice to get two Pincushioned Dolls. Similarly, you can summon Tormented Andariel only after obtaining Stygian Stone.
