Diablo 4 Carry Run

At the recently concluded TGA awards last week, Diablo 4 lived up to expectations, revealing several details about its second DLC, Lord of Hatred.

Of all the announced content in the new DLC, the most appealing is undoubtedly the two new classes, and more importantly, one of them, Paladin, is now playable in Season 11 - provided you pre-order the new DLC immediately.

Unlike the previous new class, Spiritborn, Paladin is not new to Diablo series, having appeared and been very popular in Diablo 2. Now, it finally returns in Diablo 4.

Below, we will introduce the new gameplay and features this class will have in Diablo 4, helping you quickly get started with Paladin if you plan to play it.

Paladin In Diablo 4 Overview

In Diablo 2, the class's main combat style was to strengthen itself or its teammates through various active or passive auras to deal more damage or gain more defense. Its core builds, Hammerdin and Smiter, were both very famous.

In Diablo 3, although Paladin was temporarily absent, another class, Crusader, had similarities. Diablo 4 seems to have combined the strengths of Diablo 2 Paladin and Diablo 3 Crusader to create a more powerful Paladin.

In general, in Diablo 4, Paladin is a shield-wielding melee class, drawing strength from the ability of Faith, and capable of dealing holy, physical, and fire damage. It has a wide variety of weapons and skills available, and a unique mechanism called Oaths.

What Are Oaths?

All Diablo 4 classes have a unique mechanism that serves to embody the class's characteristics and provide additional combat bonuses.

Paladin's Oaths are unlocked after reaching level 15. After that, you can choose one of four Oaths with different bonus effects as your specialization, making yourself a more powerful and specialized Paladin. They are:

• Zealot: Focuses on fast, aggressive attacks and critical strikes.
• Juggernaut: Emphasizes defense and shield abilities, capable of dealing Thorns damage and gaining offensive conversion while defending.
• Judicator: You can apply Judgement marks to enemies and then detonate them to deal high holy damage and AoE damage.
• Disciple: Enhance your damage and mobility by transforming into Arbiter form.

These Oaths are not only a way to increase your power, but also provide possibilities for crafting more Paladin builds in Season 11 and Lord of Hatred, further expanding the gameplay of this new class.

How To Unlock This Class?

Although Paladin is essentially one of the new classes introduced in the new DLC launching on April 28, 2026, if you pre-order DLC now, you can play Paladin in Season 11, combining seasonal powers and dungeons!

In addition, you are expected to be able to continue experiencing this class in other new seasons before the new DLC is officially released. More importantly, pre-ordering Lord of Hatred also directly unlocks the first DLC, Vessel of Hatred!

Paladin Exclusive Items

All gear in Diablo 4 can be simply divided into general and class-specific types, and rarer items often have one or more corresponding exclusive bosses; focusing on farming them gives you a greater chance of obtaining item drops.

Based on this, after Paladin's addition, in addition to the still available general gear, Diablo 4 has also added several new exclusive unique items and Legendary Aspects for this class.

It should be noted that while Paladin unique items can already be obtained by farming the corresponding bosses, Legendary Aspects have not yet unlocked this channel and can only be obtained through random drops, such as Helltide chests or Whisper caches.

However, it is expected that after the new DLC is officially released, new dungeons or other related new bosses added through the new region Skovos will provide you with exclusive Paladin Legendary Aspect drop channels.

If you want to level up quickly or get the gear you want as a Paladin in Season 11, the best option is to buy cheap Diablo 4 items at IGGM now! Easily obtain unique items without the hassle of farming bosses!

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!
