Diablo 4 Season Rank

Diablo 4 Season 11 has begun! Are you ready to jump in? While adapting to the new seasonal powers takes time, some tasks are universally applicable across seasons, so you should be able to get started right away.

Generally, farming gold, XP, and gear are tasks you should complete as quickly as possible early in the new season. Gold and XP usually drop together, but gear appears at different stages of the season depending on its rarity.

Diablo 4 gear can be roughly divided into three stages: starter, ancestral, and Mythic, unlocked one by one as you progress. Undoubtedly, Mythic items are the hardest to obtain.

While you may not have the chance to access these rare items at the start of Season 11, you'll need them eventually if you keep playing. Therefore, this guide will provide tips on efficiently farming Mythic Uniques in Season 11.

What Are Mythic Uniques?

This category of items, sometimes called Uber Uniques, is the most powerful and rarest gear category in Diablo 4, and can be equipped as early as level 35 (if you have the gear).

While the drop rate is very low, combat drops aren't the only way to obtain them. You can also find Jeweler or Blacksmith in the game and then use Resplendent Spark and other materials for crafting.

Currently, there are 12 Mythic items in the game, some universal and some class-specific. Therefore, when farming, be careful not to kill bosses that drop gear you can't use, to avoid wasting time.

How To Craft Mythic Items In Season 11?

Although Resplendent Spark is a rare material, you should still try to craft Mythic Uniques using it as a base, as this method guarantees you a Mythic item compared to the uncertain boss drops.

However, the materials required for crafting and the crafting results vary depending on NPC. Jeweler requires you to submit 2 Resplendent Sparks and 30 runes of different rarities to craft a specific Mythic Unique.

Blacksmithing requires simpler materials: 2 Resplendent Sparks and 50,000,000 Diablo 4 gold to craft a Mythic Unique Cache, which will grant a random item reward upon opening.

How To Farm Resplendent Sparks?

Generally speaking, gold and runes are not difficult to acquire, just time-consuming, but Resplendent Sparks are much more challenging and rarer.

The first method is to utilize the seasonal reward system linked to your game progress. Previously, this system was Season Journey, where you could earn a free Resplendent Spark after completing all the quests in the final chapter of the journey.

Although Season Journey and Renown were merged into Season Rank starting with Season 11, the main mechanics and rewards haven't changed significantly, so you can still obtain a spark by increasing your Seasonal Rank.

As for when you'll complete the seasonal Rank missions to unlock rewards, it depends on the season's difficulty and your playtime. Generally, if you play daily, you should be able to reach it before reaching the level cap.

Another relatively reliable way to obtain Resplendent Sparks is by defeating Lilith for the first time each season; one will drop. While this boss is tricky, we believe that after 10 seasons, you should remember her attack mechanics very well.

Furthermore, if you obtain multiple duplicate Mythic Uniques, don't rush to sell them. Instead, it's best to salvage them, which will return one Resplendent Spark. However, the gear will disappear after salvaging, so you need to consider this carefully before deciding.

How To Obtain Mythic Uniques Through Combat Drops?

Although many players have noticed that the drop rate of Mythic gear seems to have decreased in recent seasons, making crafting a better and more stable option, boss battles are still one of the main gameplay elements, so it's worth trying.

Defeat The Lair Bosses

These bosses come in three difficulty levels, mainly including Duriel, Andariel, Belial, and more. The three we've listed are special because in Season 11, they, along with the new world boss Azmodan, will provide you with the new power, Divine Gifts.

These bosses usually have a fixed drop rate for Mythic Uniques; naturally, the higher the boss's level, the higher the drop rate. Even bosses with slightly lower drop rates can bring loot more stable on higher difficulties.

Enter Kurast Undercity

Note that this method only applies to players who own DLC. Here, you can increase the probability of obtaining Mythic Uniques when you receive the final reward by collecting and using Tributes of Ascendance.

Therefore, we recommend challenging this dungeon in a group, as your teammates can also utilize tributes, further increasing the chances of the political team obtaining Mythic rewards.

Try Gambling

This is an unconventional way to obtain Mythic Uniques, but you can try it if you have enough resources.

First, you need to earn enough Murmuring Obols by completing Local Events and Cursed Chest events within dungeons. Then, find Surveyor of Curiosities vendor and gamble using the currency.

The gambling result is a gear. You can specify the gear slot, but the final quality and attributes are random.

The probability of Mythic Uniques appearing this way is highly random and has nothing to do with the amount of Murmuring Obols you use, so it can only be considered a supplement or a pastime.

Is Mythic Unique Worth Sanctifying?

Many players have expressed concerns because the gear cannot be changed after sanctification, and the sanctification result is random. Fortunately, after a recent modification, ancestry and Mythic Uniques will no longer have any attributes replaced.

In other words, they will only receive a pure boost through sanctification, without causing issues like destroying the gear's value. Therefore, what you need to do is work hard to farm specific, better gear attributes.

That concludes this introduction. Although Chaos Armor is no longer available, earning rare gear remains an essential part of your Diablo 4 journey. Keep up the good work!

Diablo 4 Season 11 is about to launch. Due to the increased overall difficulty of the new season, player survival has become more challenging, leading many players to search for guides and strategies, from methods for defeating World Bosses to optimal build recommendations for different classes.

As the launch date approaches, we've also been looking for suitable class builds for a smooth run. However, after reviewing numerous build guides, we've found that almost all strategies revolve around high damage and high output. This approach is indeed feasible; players can quickly defeat bosses on the map through overwhelming strength and then obtain the desired items and rewards.

Among these recommended items, we've noticed one item that's rarely mentioned: Temerity, this item has often been overlooked by players in previous seasons. But I believe that in Season 11, Diablo 4 Temerity can rise to prominence; everyone has underestimated its value.

Why Is It Underestimated?

Season of Divine Intervention has undergone many changes compared to its predecessors, from monster mechanics and difficulty to the item upgrade system. This means all players should proceed with greater caution.

Previously, we tended to charge into battle without much consideration for defense, especially in the endgame. This led to a continued bias towards attack power while neglecting defense in the new season.

However, based on our experience on PTR server, we believe this high-damage, low-defense playstyle needs to be changed. Survival has become more challenging; even with a defensive character build, players are still vulnerable.

After numerous trials, we discovered that Temerity is an excellent defensive item. It provides a significant defense boost without incurring excessive costs.

How To Obtain Temerity?

Temerity is a unique patch in Diablo 4, usable by any class. You can obtain it by summoning and killing the following monsters:

• Varshan
• Lord Zir
• Grigoire
• Echo of Duriel
• The Beast in the Ice
• Urivar

Alternatively, you can obtain it from chests dropped in Helltide Events.

Why Choose Temerity?

This item is incredibly powerful defensively, making it ideal for builds or classes that don't rely heavily on barriers. In other words, when your healing exceeds your maximum health, the excess is converted into a damage-absorbing barrier, essentially an extra layer of protection.

Even if you rely on barrier protection, its effect is still optimal, granting you an 8-second barrier, which is far superior to other equipment.

Especially with the recent upgrades to the healing system, healing effects have been enhanced. Healing effects are now essentially an attribute that can be applied to equipment, allowing you to use Temerity to convert all excess healing into a significant amount of barrier damage.

If you acquire this equipment early in the game and need a defensive boost, don't hesitate, equipping Diablo 4 Temerity is your best choice; its effects will surprise you.

This equipment was previously overlooked because the game's difficulty wasn't high enough, so its impact wasn't significant. However, with the increased difficulty of Season of Divine Intervention, I believe it will definitely stand out in the new season.

Many class builds in Season 11 are suitable for Temerity, especially Spiritborn, as it's one of the most vulnerable classes, particularly Legendary Nodes like Viscous Shield. In such cases, equipping Temerity provides an extra barrier protection.

How To Improve Temerity's Defensive Capabilities?

With the new season's updated defense mechanics and item upgrade system, we can optimize and enhance Temerity by adding appropriate affixes through Tempering and Masterworking. We can even use the newly added Sanctification system to give equipment a final boost, thereby maximizing Temerity's defensive capabilities.

Furthermore, with the reworked Fortify system in the new season update, stacking Fortify increases a player's Maximum Life, providing an additional benefit to Temerity's barrier protection.

Alternative Solutions

While Temerity isn't restricted to any class, some builds inevitably can't incorporate it into their gear because they require specific pants or unique skill attributes. For example, Rogues have Second Wind skill, and Necromancers have their own unique pants - Blood Moon Breeches.

In such cases, alternative methods are needed to obtain sufficient defensive capabilities. Runes do offer decent defensive benefits. In Diablo 4, runes' offensive output isn't particularly outstanding, often requiring a full set of runes to achieve the desired damage output.

However, some runes can provide unexpected defensive effects, such as Mot Rune, which grants a shadow from Rogue's Dark Shroud skill, providing up to 40% damage reduction.

In addition to these, there are some runes with slightly weaker defense, such as Xal, which increases your maximum health by 20%. Especially when your health is overflowing, it grants a huge amount of health over 4 seconds, but it requires Ritual Rune.

Other runes with defensive effects include:

• Que
• Wat
• Feo

While Season 11 may be more difficult than before, especially based on PTR server experience where some monsters seem to deal excessive damage, the developers have stated they will adjust the game balance in the live servers. Furthermore, due to adjustments to class skill mechanics, our characters are now stronger.

Therefore, we can invest more resources in defense, without having to spend as much time and effort on increasing damage output as before, while our map clearing and monster killing speed will not be affected. This is why I recommend using Temerity in Season of Divine Intervention.

I hope this information will be helpful as the new Diablo 4 season arrives. Have fun in the game!
