Power Leveling in Diablo 4
NOTE – THERE IS CURRENTLY A BUG IN-GAME making this method impossible. WE WILL UPDATE THE GUIDE AS WE KNOW MORE
If you have a high-level friend, power leveling in Diablo 4 is extremely viable! Here is the best way to Power Level a Character in Diablo 4. THE PLAYER POWER-LEVELING THE LOW-LEVEL CHARACTER SHOULD HAVE ACCESS TO WORLD TIER 4 AND BE ABLE TO EASILY CLEAR ANCESTRAL NIGHTMARE DUNGEON SIGILS. A character can be power leveled from level 1 or above as long as that player has completed the Story on a different character.
- STEP 1 – Carry Low-Level Character through Capstone Dungeon 1 to gain access to World Tier 3
- STEP 2 – Carry Low-Level Character through Capstone Dungeon 2 to gain access to World Tier 4
- STEP 3 – Complete Nightmare Dungeons with low-level characters inside the dungeon on the highest Sigil possible.
This method is extremely effective in getting low-level characters to World Tier 4 content quickly so that they can start completing End-game content and earning Ancestrial Items.
Nightmare Sigil Level effects on XP
Choosing which Nightmare Sigils you complete as you level up is extremely important. As stated above, you want to make sure you are keeping Monsters +10 Levels above your character for maximum XP Gain. Below is a formula to help make sure you’re doing the most efficient Nightmare Sigils possible
CHARACTER LEVEL – (40+ WORLD TIER LEVEL) = NIGHTMARE SIGIL
Alternately here is a chart displaying the desired Nightmare SIGIL for each level
| WORLD TIER 3 | (CHARACTER LEVEL) – 43 |
| WORLD TIER 4 | (CHARACTER LEVEL) – 44 |
For Example, If you are level 75 and in World Tier 4 you will want to use level 31 Nightmare Sigils for maximum experience.
75 – 44 = 31 (Monster Level 85)
