D4 Tips and Tricks! (beehaw.org)

What tips and/or tricks do you have for D4?

  • You can exit dungeons via the map or emote wheel
  • It's cheaper to re-roll rares than legendaries, so roll the enchants before applying a legendary affix
  • Helltides are the only drop locations for the mats you need to re-roll enchants --Helltides.com has got a tracker for when they'll be and where the Mystery chest is.
  • You can do the capstones at any level, but if you're early it could be tough.

What have you guys got?

New player general tips:

  • always play however you find most fun, if you're looking to be efficient or aren't sure where to start...

  • you get your mount at the very beginning of act IV if you want to get more mobility.

  • if you just do the main story (yellow quest markers), you'll be slightly under leveled by the end of the game.

  • get renown up at least up to level 1 for each region. The extra skill points and bonus XP are great

  • probably the best things to do for renown are strongholds and side quests. Strongholds are usually 100+20 renown for the included waypoint. Side quests that are also in dungeons will yield 20+30 renown

  • Make sure you level up your healing potions every 10ish levels!

  • salvaging gear will give you mats you'll really want later in the game. You'll probably have enough gold and can skip selling

salvaging gear will give you mats you’ll really want later in the game. You’ll probably have enough gold and can skip selling

I've been salvaging everything that I don't need and have been wondering - what does that even do? What do I do with the stuff I get from salvaging? Wouldn't it be better to just sell everything?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

I think the general consensus so far is to salvage everything until you are close to 50 and then start selling everything. In the end game item sell value goes up but prices for everything skyrockets.

Salvaging gives you the same kind of materials you ise for upgrading weapons. You can also find these by exploring but as they said, it's easier to find hold so I just salvage everything.

You can keyword search effects in the skill tree. For example if you want to make a build that does critical damage you can plan your build with skills that you find by searching for that keyword.

Altars of Lilith are very effective in endgame for boosting stats. A lot of paragon related boosts will depend on having enough of a certain attribute on your character to be really OP.

I need to just bust em all out at once I think. Someone said you can do the whole map in just a few hours.

D4builds.gg has an interactive map that let's you track the alters very easily.

Use your murmuring obols to roll for legendaries at the purveyor of curiosities. The rolls can be disappointing but legendaries come more often than you think. There's a limit to the # of obols you can carry (you'll hit this fast if you do a lot of world events), so use them!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

500 is the initial limit, which you can expand via Lilith altars and renown level 4.

Events can drop 50+ so you can definitely that limit faster than you think

hi! just bought the game today and i wonder... any tips for a sorcerer? im totally new in to diablo

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Buy 1 level of Fireball and 1 level of Fire Bolt for the Enchantment abilities

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

At the start of act 4 you get a horse. Lol. Enjoy the game, find a build you like, or make your own!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I can't believe I didn't find out until now that you can turn a rare into a legendary.

How do you do this?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Horse armor from stable vendors is a lot cheaper on a low level alt. Always buy mount armor on a new / low level character after unlocking your mount on a higher level character.

  • Every consumable elixir has an effect + 5% xp bonus. I am constantly popping them.

Level on World Tier 1 the first time, the XP and gold bonuses don't equal the increased monster health so you'll level more slowly even though you get more XP
