As the countdown to Diablo 4’s Season One begins, players around the globe are gearing up to dive into the new content. With less than two weeks left, it’s crucial to prepare your characters and strategies to make the most of the season. This guide will walk you through the key steps to get ready for the Season of the Malignant.
Finish the Main Campaign
The first step is to complete the main campaign of Diablo 4. Season One’s story unfolds after the events of the base game, so it’s essential to finish the main story to fully understand and appreciate the new content.
Progress Transfer
One of the exciting features of Season One is the ability to carry over your progress from the base game. This means you can create a new character on the first day of the season and skip straight into the new content. Your seasonal characters will retain their progress, including completed renown and map completion. This includes the altars of Lilith and clearing the map. To ensure your progress is carried over, simply log in once on the character with the highest amount of progress.
Fast Renown
To level up faster in Season One, focus on completing the Renown system as soon as possible. This will grant you extra skill points and Paragon points. Start with the strongholds in each region, as they offer the highest Renown and unlock new fast travel spots and access to dungeons.
Class Selection
To keep the game fresh and exciting, consider starting with a class that you haven’t explored much before. This will not only provide a new perspective on the game but also rekindle your passion for Diablo 4.
Seasonal Progression
Remember, once the season is over, you can migrate your character back to the eternal realm and continue playing. Seasonal events introduce accelerated leveling speed and new mechanics, making leveling faster in the seasonal realm compared to the eternal one.
New Legendary Items and Powers
Season One presents the opportunity to obtain new legendary items and powers. These new powers can inspire new types of builds for different classes. While some powers are tied to seasonal events, many can be obtained without participating in these events. However, exclusive powers are tied to participating in Season 1, so be sure to join in!
Battle Pass
Finally, don’t forget about the Battle Pass. The free version provides cool cosmetics, and the premium version, included with the deluxe edition of Diablo 4, offers even more exciting rewards.
As we prepare for the launch of Diablo 4’s Season One, it’s time to gear up and get ready for the thrilling adventures that lie ahead. Whether you’re a seasoned player or new to the game, this guide will help you navigate the season and make the most of your gaming experience. Happy gaming!
