As this is a trend in seasonal content that launches alongside major expansions, Diablo 4Season 6 may be taking a back seat with the release of Vessel of Hate, which has much more content to offer than its story campaign. Diablo 4The new Spiritborn builds are also taking center stage after the release of the expansion, as the class has many customization options that players can take advantage of, especially if they plan to tackle endgame activities like Kurast Undercity and Dark Citadel. Still, for those interested in farming more items and materials, Season 6 is a good starting point – although it repeats a major mistake from the base game, only to be revised later.
Aptly called “Season of Hate”. Diablo 4is tied to the events of the Season 6 DLC's campaign in the sense that the main enemies here are linked to Mephisto himself – the Realmwalkers. These entities roam the land of the sanctuary one area at a time, and players can pick up new rewards for killing them and progressing up the prestige bar with a seasonal vendor. While this may all sound appealing, Realmwalkers is essentially a large escort encounter.

Diablo 4 Season 6 supplements the base game with more escort missions
Why Diablo 4's new Realmwalker mission is skating on thin ice
Escort missions in video games throughout as well as within Diablo 4 Not very popular because they can take momentum from players, who instead have to sit and wait for an escort target while they kill monsters. This is often a static encounter or one where players must slowly move around, waiting for new waves of enemies to defeat until the larger entity finally weakens. That's exactly what Season 6 asks of players, as they must fight enemies in waves until the Realmwalker is vulnerable to damage and try to kill it.
The Realmwalkers of Diablo 4 Season 6 are no ordinary escort missions as they are also targets to kill.
when Diablo 4 When first launched, it introduced several small events in the Sanctuary where players could obtain Murmuring Obols, making them very worthwhile. However, a bunch of these events were and still are escort missions where players are tasked with, for example, escorting ghosts to various tombs as they search for their mother, while a handful of enemies spawn and attack players. Escort missions like these don't really reward buildcrafting Diablo 4And while the rewards are great, they can be very hard to pass up.
How Diablo 4 redeems its Season 6 mechanic
in Diablo 4 Season 6, whether players kill the boss when the escort mission is underway or after reaching the final destination, doing so will spawn a portal to the dungeon. This is where Season 6 redeems itself, the location is randomized, which can be quite refreshing after an escort mission. It can still feel redundant if players are farming Nightmare Dungeons Diablo 4However, the field always tends to be linear with similar objectives. However, venturing into randomly generated dungeons that often have little to no content can be exciting and return players to the familiar pace of an ARPG.
Furthermore, players will be able to obtain all new Seething Opals Diablo 4Which will provide the same benefits as Elixirs, as the grantee gains 15% more experience for 30 minutes. On top of that, there are five types of seething opals, each offering unique bonuses to players. These are:
- Seething opal of equipment, which drops more gear
- Seething Opal of Gold, which drops more gold
- Seething Opal of Material, which drops more herbs and crafting materials
- The socketable's seething opal, which drops extra gem fragments
- Seething Opal of Torment, which drops more Artificer's Stones
All of these are interesting drops for one Diablo 4 Seasonal activity, and considering that players don't start with anything, it makes sense to pursue them – especially the material opal. As such, the escort mission required to kill the Realmwalker remains a low point Diablo 4But what follows is worth it.
