The arrival of the Vessel of Hatred DLC for Diablo IV has completely overhauled many familiar systems in the game. Capstone Dungeons are gone as well, taking with them some of the key sources for XP grinding.
This Diablo 4 guide is all about how to farm XP and level up quickly and efficiently in the new Vessel of Hatred DLC.
Campaign
Major chunks of XP can be gained by simply powering through the new campaign quests and side quests, without even hardly touching open world Event content.
Strongholds
A perennial and grindable source of XP, Strongholds also reward players with a slew of unique items including Runes, upon the initial clearing.
Helltides
These World Events offer up copious amounts of XP for any player willing to play nice with other players and farm the tougher content for both XP and drops, including Grim Favors.
Tree of Whispers
The aforementioned Grim Favors earned can then be turned in at the Tree of Whispers in order to complete Whispers. Besides the major XP bonus, these Whispers also grant you several types of reward Caches to choose from, some with Legendary contents.
Kurast Undercity
This timed dungeon offers a unique alternative to Strongholds, with both XP and targeted farming of Weapons, Armor, and Aspects up for grabs. Kurast is a race to the finish line where one of three bosses awaits defeat before you can collect your rewards, but you still get to keep all that XP earned along the way regardless.
Those are all the ways to farm XP and level up quickly in Diablo IV Vessel of Hatred.
