Now you have reached Level 70 in Season 17 in Diablo 3, but what comes next? We will show you what steps to take as a fresh character at Level 70. This is how you prepare for the endgame.
What happens after Level 70? The maximum level your character can reach in Diablo 3 is Level 70. Then you have unlocked all skills. Further experience points will go into your Paragon levels.
After you have reached Level 70 with or without the Level Guide for Season 17, the game really begins. The leveling phase is a hurdle that everyone must overcome.
The first steps with Level 70
What comes next? Once you have collected the last experience points and unlocked the big 70 on your screen, it’s time for your seasonal journey. Because it rewards you with Haedrig’s gifts.
The seasonal journey and the first set
The seasonal journey in Season 17: The journey is divided into several chapters. If you complete them, you will receive Haedrig’s gifts. These are available for completing chapters 2, 3, and 4.
With your equipment that you still have left from leveling, completing chapters 2 and 3 should not be a problem. This grants you 4 set pieces of your class set and unlocks powerful bonuses. Equip these items and switch to the difficulty Torment 4 to be able to complete the tasks of chapter 4.
Completing chapter 4 should also be easier this way. Which set your class receives as a gift in Season 17, you can find out here:

This is how it continues with the 6-piece set bonus: Once you have activated the 6-piece bonus of your class set, you should increase the difficulty again. With a completed set, Torment 6 should be easily achievable.
At least in Torment 6, you will now complete Nephalem Rifts. In the normal Nephalem Rifts, you will receive keys for Greater Nephalem Rifts among other rewards for defeating the Rift Guardian.
Here you can now switch between small and large Nephalem Rifts. This way you gradually exchange your yellow equipment for legendary items and become stronger and stronger.
Which sets are good?
Which set should you play? There is a lot of choice when it comes to equipment. If you are dissatisfied with the set from Haedrig’s gift and want to compete at the top of the leaderboard, check out which are the strongest builds for your class.
You can see the best classes and builds for Season 17 in this tier list.
Once you have chosen a build, you will also know which items belong in Kanai’s Cube. So visit Act 3 and unlock Kanai’s Cube.
At this point, you have a complete set that you can either keep or play to farm a new set.
Kadala in Diablo 3 – What should you buy?
How to use Kadala? For completing various activities like Greater Nephalem Rifts, you will be rewarded with Blood Shards. You can exchange these at the NPC Kadala, who is located near the Nephalem Obelisks in the capital of each act.
With her, you can get items for every item slot. The exchanged items can even be legendary or belong to sets. Some items are inexpensive, while others are more expensive.
At Kadala, it is especially worthwhile to exchange off-hand weapons and armor. To obtain legendary weapons, rings, or amulets, it is worth upgrading these as yellow items in Kanai’s Cube. At Kadala, these cost a lot of Blood Shards.
Grinding, Grinding, Grinding – This is how the endgame begins
Once you have gathered the base gear you want to play with, you adjust your difficulty level and enter normal and Greater Nephalem Rifts. Here you will gradually find better gear. This can happen in the form of ancient or primal items.
At higher difficulty levels, the chances increase that rare items will drop for you. So, it is worthwhile to keep fighting your way up in the Greater Nephalem Rift. For many, this creates the appeal of a season, to compete with other players in the leaderboard for the best times.
