Here’s what you should do after beating the Diablo 4 campaign

The Diablo 4 Campaign postgame, explained

So, you’ve just saved Sanctuary from the clutches of Lilith and changed the fate of the world forever. First, that’s a lot! Second, congratulations! Beating every act of the Diablo 4 campaign is no small feat. That said, you have plenty of content ahead of you if you’re up to the challenge.

While I wouldn’t stay Diablo 4 starts at endgame, it certainly does unlock several features to keep you slaying demons for hours to come. Most of these involve the continued strengthening of your character(s), which you’ll need to overcome some particularly nasty obstacles. Here’s the rundown.

Unlock Whispers

Upon beating the campaign, you’ll have a Priority Quest in your queue that involves returning to the Tree of Whispers. Once there, you’ll receive a quest that involves clearing “Whispers” to collect 10 Grim Favors. You’ll achieve this by slaying monsters, running dungeons, and clearing events in Caldeum. Just follow the markers on your map and do what interests you.

After you collect the favors, return to the Tree of Whispers. You’ll get to pick a box full of loot for your troubles, and you will mark the quest as complete. This will unlock Whispers all around the world, and you can continue to collect Grim Favors from them to exchange for more random gear. This is good, because you’ll need strong equipment to complete the next recommended challenge.

Raise your world tier

Once you finish the Diablo 4 campaign, you’ll likely hover around level 50 for your troubles. Coincidentally, whether you’re playing on World Tier 1 or 2, level 50 is where the level scaling maxes out. Sure, this may be nice if you just want to feel powerful, but this is no environment to keep leveling up and finding better loot.

Fortunately, you’ll have access to a Capstone Dungeon in Kyovashad. The Cathedral of Life has a set level of 50, and you’ll need to clear it on World Tier 2 to complete the “World Tier 3: Nightmare” Priority Quest. Consider this a test dungeon to see if you can handle World Tier 3. Clearing it involves slaying dense mobs of powerful monsters, culminating in a fierce boss battle at the end. If you’re comfortable with your build and have sufficiently upgraded your gear, you should handle this well.

Once you clear the Cathedral of Light, you’ll have access to World Tier 3. You’ll want to hop in here as soon as you’re able, as the gear here is exponentially better than what you’ve found so far. That said, note that content in World Tier 3 has a level 53 minimum. You should feel okay if you cleared the Cathedral of Life, but just keep this in mind.

Of course, once you reach level 70, you’ll want to ascend to World Tier 4 by completing the Fallen Temple Capstone Dungeon in the northern Dry Steppes. But that’s a task for another time.

Max out your Renown

Up to this point, Renown has been one of your best ways to “grind” in Diablo 4. With World Tier 3 unlocked, you now have access to all five tiers of rewards in all five regions. Since you’re mostly focusing on gaining levels at this stage anyway, you might as well max out your Renown.

To do this, you’ll want to leave no stone unturned. Complete dungeons, clear Strongholds, and collect all the Altars of Lilith for the extra stats. To help with that last task, check out our guides below!

Complete Challenges

Honestly, between the tasks above, you should find plenty to keep you busy in the endgame as is. However, if you’re looking for other objectives, check out your Collections window and look at the Challenges.

If you need to find reasons to keep playing, Challenges should give you plenty to do. Some of the grindier challenges – like slaying 10,000 zombies – will naturally come with time. However, notable challenges include reaching level 100 with all characters, defeating the strongest Echo of Lilith, and completing several milestones on Hardcore mode. That last one is not for the faint of heart, but it will easily prove your mastery of Diablo 4.

Wait for new seasons

Just in the recommendations above, you should have plenty to do in Diablo 4 for the foreseeable future. However, Diablo 4 is also a live service game, which means seasonal content is on the way.

While we don’t know all the details about upcoming seasons, we do know that these will involve (mostly) fresh starts. You’ll create a character, level them up, and pursue unique quests and challenges for special cosmetic rewards. This is where the Battle Pass will come into play, so if that sounds exciting to you, then you’ll want to check out this content when it comes.

Ultimately, there’s no right or wrong answer in how you want to enjoy the game. Pursue the goals you want or take a break and come back when there’s new content. Either way, you’ll have a lot to do in Diablo 4 if you want to keep the fun going.
