Congratulations on reaching level 50 and completing the Capstone dungeon in Diablo 4! Now it's time to progress further and tackle the challenges of World Tier 3. This guide discusses the activities you can engage in World Tier 3 and how to advance to World Tier 4.

• Tree of Whispers
• Nightmare Dungeons
• Helltide Areas
• Reaching Level 55-58
• Nightmare Dungeons and Helltide Areas in World Tier 4

↖ Tree of Whispers

One of the new activities in World Tier 3 is the Tree of Whispers. This feature allows you to earn rewards by completing dungeons, checking your map for open Grim Favor quests, and accumulating Grim Favor (the red bar below). By visiting the Tree of Whispers with 10 Grim Favors, you can claim caches filled with legendaries and sacred items, the new upgrade in World Tier 3. Additionally, there are dungeons marked as Grim Favor that allow you to push your Renown and farm Grim Favor while advancing in the game.

↖ Nightmare Dungeons

Starting with Nightmare Dungeons is another activity you can engage in World Tier 3. The rule of thumb for Nightmare Dungeons is that the enemy difficulty is always the sigil level, which in the world Tier 3 is 1 to 20 plus 54 monster levels. As a level 50 character, you should be able to handle Nightmare Dungeon 1. If unprepared, focus on obtaining equipment through Grim Favors and then attempt Nightmare Dungeons. It's generally recommended to tackle Nightmare Dungeons within a three to four-level range of your character for optimal experience and D4 Gold gain. However, if your build is solid, you can attempt higher-tier Nightmare Dungeons to earn more experience and glyphs.

↖ Helltide Areas

In World Tier 3, you will also encounter Helltide Areas. These areas offer quests, monster slaying, and the opportunity to gather Cinders. With Cinders, you can open boxes containing various items, including helmets, trousers, weapons, and jewellery. The Chest of Mysteries is a unique random spawn within the Helltide Area that can yield three to six legendary items. It is crucial not to die in the Helltide Area, as you would lose half of your Cinders. Refer to the D4 Planner interactive map linked in the description to help locate the chest of mysteries and claim your legendary items.

↖ Reaching Level 55-58

Continue engaging in these activities until you reach approximately levels 55-58. At this point, you can attempt the Capstone dungeon, which will unlock World Tier 4. It's possible to beat the Capstone dungeon at level 55 or even lower, depending on your character and build. However, some players prefer to wait until level 60 for a smoother experience. Once in World Tier 4, you can participate in Legion Events, which grant significant experience (200%+). Joining Legion Events and assisting higher-level players can help you level up faster.

↖ Nightmare Dungeons and Helltide Areas in World Tier 4

Upon reaching level 60, you can focus on engaging in Grim Favor dungeons you haven't completed yet. This allows you to acquire ancestral items, the next upgrade tier beyond sacred items. Furthermore, continue exploring Helltide Areas in World Tier 4 for additional challenges and rewards. It is advisable to bolster your character's strength through gear upgrades and improvements before venturing into higher-tier Nightmare Dungeons, such as Nightmare Dungeons 21, which should be approached when you are around level 65 for optimal efficiency.

Conclusion

Following this guide, you should have a clear path from World Tier 3 to World Tier 4 in Diablo 4. Engage in activities such as the Tree of Whispers, Nightmare Dungeons, and Helltide Areas to earn rewards, upgrade your gear, and level your character. Adapt your strategy based on your class, build, and personal play style.
