Discover the Lost Relics of Diablo 4: Hidden Altar Locations Revealed

Uncover the Secrets of Diablo 4's Forgotten Altars and Lost Powers

The Season of the Maelstrom introduces Witchcraft Powers in Diablo 4, drawing inspiration from fantasy series like Harry Potter and Agatha All Along. Mastering these powers requires dedication, and a key component is locating the elusive Forgotten Altars. This guide reveals their secrets.

Unlocking Witchcraft's Potential

The new Season questline allows you to learn potent Witchcraft Powers, categorized into Eldritch, Psyche, and Growth & Decay. Gaining favor with The Coven, through completing missions, earns you Restless Rot, essential for upgrading Altars near the Tree of Whispers. While main Altars are readily accessible, Forgotten Altars offer unique Lost Powers, significantly boosting your character's capabilities.

The Challenge of the Forgotten

Unlike the consistently located main Altars, Forgotten Altars randomly spawn within Sanctuary's dungeons. This necessitates exploration and dungeon grinding. However, the Season's questline already directs you to numerous dungeons, potentially minimizing extra effort. The reward—powerful Lost Powers—is well worth the hunt.
