Hitting level 60 in Diablo 4 is a milestone worth celebrating, but it's just the beginning of your adventure into the endgame. Whether you're a fresh face in Sanctuary or a seasoned demon-slaying veteran, the endgame can feel overwhelming with new additions like Chaos Armor, Chaos Rifts, and revamped Infernal Hordes.

Choose Your Endgame Build

Your first task after reaching level 60 is to select an endgame build tailored to your playstyle. Unlike leveling builds, endgame builds prioritize high damage output, survivability, and synergy with new seasonal mechanics like Chaos Armor. For example, a dual basic skill Barbarian build can clear Pit 90 within days, dealing billions in damage with the correct setup.

To get started, use a build planner from a trusted source, such as Mobileics. These planners detail skill trees, Paragon boards, and gear choices, saving you from the trial-and-error process. Look for guides that explain the “why" behind each choice—how skills interact, how to manage resources like fury, and how to integrate Chaos Uniques or runes from the Vessel of Hatred expansion. If you prefer crafting your own build, study existing ones to understand what works and adapt them to your style. A good planner shows how your build evolves with gear upgrades, from legendaries to mythics.

Unlock Endgame Content

Diablo 4's endgame offers a variety of activities: Pits, Nightmare Dungeons, Infernal Hordes, Dark Citadel, Under City Carcass, and boss fights. To access everything, complete the campaign or the Deeds of a Champion questline if you own the Vessel of Hatred expansion. Your immediate goal is unlocking Torment 1 by clearing Pit 10, which becomes available at level 60.

Head to the Artificer's Obelisk in Kyovashad to start Pits. You'll need Artificer Stones, which drop from Hell Tides, Whisper Caches, Legion Events, World Bosses, and Nightmare Dungeons. Clearing Pit 10 is straightforward if your gear is up to par—monsters in Pit 7 are equivalent to Penitent difficulty, so you should breeze through if you're ready. Torment 1 unlocks Chaos Armor, ancestral gear, and a 300% boost to gold and experience, making it a critical milestone.

Gear Up with 750 Item Power

At level 60, all gear drops at 750 item power or higher, replacing your leveling equipment. Your priority is to equip a complete set of 750 gear across all slots. Here's how:

• Hell Tides and Nightmare Dungeons: These are your go-to for farming 750 legendaries and uniques. Run them repeatedly to collect drops.

• Purveyor of Curiosities: Use opals (earned from Hell Tides and dungeons) to gamble for 750 gear. Be strategic—focus on slots where you need upgrades, but save some opals for later Torment tiers.

• Prioritize Armor and Resistances: Before moving to Torment 1, ensure your armor is at least 1,000 for maximum physical damage reduction and resistances are capped at 75%. Chaos perks may lower resistances, so adjust gear or use Paragon nodes and incenses to compensate.

Once you're decked out in 750 gear, you're ready to tackle Pit 10 and enter Torment 1.

Push to Torment 4

Advancing through Torment tiers (1 to 4) increases your chances of finding ancestral gear (marked with a star, also called Greater Affix or GA gear), Chaos Armor, and mythic uniques. However, each tier imposes penalties: -250 armor and -25% resistances per tier, culminating in -1,000 armor and -100% resistances in Torment 4. To survive, optimize your build and gear:

• Ancestral Gear: Available in Torment tiers, ancestral gear has enhanced stats and Greater Affixes. Farm it from Infernal Hordes, Nightmare Dungeons, or by gambling opals.

• Chaos Armor: This unique gear (available for helmets, chests, gloves, pants, and boots) introduces build-defining mechanics. Target farm it in Torment tiers or through specific activities like Infernal Hordes.

• Masterworking: At the blacksmith, masterworking boosts all gear stats by up to 5–12%. Apply two tempers to each piece (except uniques) before masterworking. Use Scrolls of Restoration from Infernal Hordes to reset failed tempers. This is the single most effective way to scale damage and survivability.

• Runes and Tributes: If you have the expansion, runes drop from level 15–20 and enhance builds significantly. Complete the Deeds of a Champion questline to unlock tributes, which reward runes, boss lair keys, and masterworking materials like Obesite.

To gauge readiness for higher tiers, test your build in the Pits. Clear Pit 10 in under three minutes? Try Pit 15 or 20. Don't rely on attack power—it's a misleading stat. Instead, focus on how quickly and safely you clear content.

Optimize Your Paragon Board and Glyphs

The Paragon board, unlocked at level 60, is your key to exponential power growth. If you've completed renown, you'll start with 24 points and one glyph (e.g., Challenger for Barbarians). Here's how to maximize it:

• Glyphs: Farm glyphs from Nightmare Dungeons (up to four per run) or Pits (one guaranteed). Level them to 15 for an increased radius, then push to 46 for legendary status, which adds multiplicative damage bonuses. Prioritize glyphs that align with your build's stats (e.g., dexterity for critical strike damage).

• Efficient Pathing: Don't fill every node. Follow your build guide to path efficiently, unlocking key nodes like glyphs, damage multipliers, life, and resistances. A well-planned Paragon board significantly boosts your power.

Tackle Seasonal Content

Season 10 introduces exciting content to spice up your endgame:

• Chaos Rifts and Hell Tides: These activities drop seasonal reputation, unlocking Chaos Perks that enhance your build. They're also prime spots for glyphs and gear.

• Infernal Hordes: Fight waves of enemies and face Bartuk, a new boss who drops guaranteed ancestral uniques in Torment 3+. Always choose the equipment chest for Greater Affix gear and Scrolls of Restoration.

• Boss Fights: Use lair keys to target farm uniques and mythics. Balile offers the highest mythic drop rate (2.5%), but expect 100–200 runs. Other bosses or activities like Nightmare Dungeons can also drop mythics, though chances are slim.

Mythic uniques are powerful but rare, so focus on them only after optimizing gear, glyphs, and masterworking.

Join a Community

Diablo 4 shines in co-op, and joining a community on Discord can transform your experience. Participate in seasonal events, leveling groups, or Infernal Horde runs to learn from others and have fun. Even solo players often find group play rewarding after trying it. Check out community-hosted events for tips, build advice, and camaraderie.
