A new kind of power is coming to *Diablo 4*, and it's sure to be familiar to fans of fantasy series like *Harry Potter* and *Agatha All Along*. However, joining a coven and learning everything about it isn't a cakewalk. So, here are all Forgotten Altar locations in *Diablo 4*.
The Season of Witchcraft introduces a new Questline that lets you delve into Witchcraft Powers. These powers are categorized into three major types – Eldritch, Psyche, and Growth & Decay – each focusing on different aspects of occult magic. To master these abilities, you must gain favor with The Coven by earning Restless Rot through completing various missions.
As you progress, you'll be able to upgrade structures near the Tree of Whispers known as Altars. While most players will concentrate on the main Altars, there's another type that unlocks a unique kind of magic: Forgotten Altars. These provide access to Lost Powers, some of the game's most potent abilities. However, locating a Forgotten Altar isn't straightforward.
Unlike the main Altars with fixed locations, Forgotten Altars spawn randomly within Sanctuary's dungeons. This means you'll need to grind, but since the season's Questline often sends you to dungeons, you might stumble upon them without much extra effort. The effort is well worth it, as the Lost Powers are incredibly powerful.
