• Pre-Level 50 Farming
• Helltide Zones
• Tree of Whispers
• Nightmare Dungeons
• World Bosses
• Summary

↖ Pre-Level 50 Farming

Before reaching level 50, it's possible to acquire higher-quality Legendary items by venturing into specific areas on the left-hand side of the map, such as Dry Steps, Catch a Storm, or Housar. These areas have higher-level enemies and strongholds that can yield better loot. Although challenging due to being under-levelled, farming these strongholds provides a chance to obtain valuable Legendaries and More D4 Gold early on. However, it's generally recommended to focus on levelling up through the campaign and reaching World Tier 3 as quickly as possible, as higher World Tiers offer a greater quantity of Legendaries.

↖ Helltide Zones

Helltide Zones are a method that becomes available after unlocking World Tier 3 or being on World Tier 4. While this method may not be as efficient as others on this list, it offers the opportunity to target farm-specific slots for Legendary items. Using Aberrant Cinders obtained from killing enemies, you can unlock chests and potentially find Legendaries tailored to the specific slot you desire. Although it takes longer to gather Aberrant Cinders than other methods, Helltide Zones can help upgrade specific gear slots.

↖ Tree of Whispers

The Tree of Whispers becomes accessible after completing the campaign. It features monsters around level 45, making it an excellent farming spot for Legendaries. The objective is to gather 10 Grim Favors, which can be exchanged at the tree for a Legendary cache. The most efficient way to collect Grim Favors is by participating in large open-world events, including harvest moats, rituals, and coal harvests. Completing multiple events in a group will increase the number of Grim Favors obtained. The higher your World Tier, the better the rewards from the Tree of Whispers.

↖ Nightmare Dungeons

Nightmare Dungeons offer an end-game grinding experience and are one of the best ways to obtain Legendaries in Diablo 4. As you progress through Nightmare Dungeons, the Nightmare Sigils will increase the levels of the monsters you face. This results in a higher chance of finding high-quality Legendaries. Efficiently farming Nightmare Dungeons will yield a significant number of Legendaries. However, if you struggle to clear higher Nightmare Sigils, focusing on running lower-tier dungeons faster may be more beneficial to maximize Legendary drops.

↖ World Bosses

World Bosses provide an excellent opportunity to acquire Legendaries but are inconsistent and appear irregular. Defeating World Bosses allows you to receive a weekly cache, which often contains multiple Legendaries. Having a solid build is crucial for swiftly defeating World Bosses. The Rogue class, for example, excels at boss fights due to its high damage output. As you progress to higher World Tiers, the quality and quantity of Legendaries obtained from World Bosses increase.

↖ Summary

These are the top five ways to obtain Legendaries in Diablo 4. Depending on your progression and preferences, you can choose the most suitable method for your gameplay style. Remember to prioritize reaching higher World Tiers and continually improving your character's strength. Good luck on your legendary hunt!
