Acquire Your Pet

Upon launching Diablo 4 Season 7, immediately visit the nearest town's Wardrobe. Claim your pet! While combat-ineffective, it significantly streamlines loot collection, allowing you to focus on combat and rewards.

Recruit Your Mercenaries

Vessel of Hatred owners should visit the Den to recruit Mercenaries. Solo players can utilize two, easing leveling and combat while building Rapport for extra rewards.

Conquer the Seasonal Questline

Begin on Normal difficulty and follow the green leaf-marked seasonal questline. This introduces new mechanics, including Headhunt zones, Grim Favors for the Tree of Whispers, and Witch powers. While relatively short, it includes puzzles and primarily involves farming Favors in Headhunt zones – the most efficient path to level 60. Repeatedly defeat Headhunt zone bosses, collect Favors, and upgrade Witch powers simultaneously.

Unlock Class Power

Previously completed class-specific priority quests are now automatically unlocked. Simply log in with a pre-existing character of the same class on the Eternal realm before starting your Season 7 character. Your class power unlocks upon reaching the required level.

Headhunt Zone Strategies

Focus on completing Whispers within Headhunt zones. Prioritize smaller zones for increased enemy density and faster mob farming. Prioritize these Whisper quests:

• Fugitive Shepherd: Escort animals.
• Fugitive: Defeat Elites and interact with roots to recover a head or destroy a husk.

Exchange 10 Grim Favors for a cache at the Tree of Whispers or with the Raven of the Tree found in each Headhunt zone.

Mastering Witchcraft Powers

Purchase and upgrade Witchcraft powers at the Tree of Whispers using Restless Rot (obtained by killing Rot enemies). Prioritize damage upgrades. Forgotten Altars (found in dungeons, Nightmare Dungeons, Pits, and Rootholds at Torment 1 or higher, or with Draughts of Whispers) offer unique Witch powers.

Navigating Rootholds

Access Rootholds using Whispering Wood (from Whispers and Silent Chests). These rogue-lite dungeons offer adjustable modifiers impacting loot quality. Save Roothold keys for Torment 1 for optimal Ancestral loot acquisition.

Utilizing Occult Gems

Craft Occult Gems (from Gelena at the Tree of Whispers) for superior jewelry enhancements. These are late-game items requiring significant Restless Rot and Heads (from Roothold bosses and Fugitives; Draughts of Whispers increase Head drop chances).

Optimizing Pits, Infernal Hordes, and Nightmare Dungeons

Continue utilizing Pits (for Glyph leveling), Nightmare Dungeons (for Glyphs), and Infernal Hordes (for masterworking materials for Uniques).
