Diablo 4 Echo of Hate: With our guide you will find and defeat Lilith

On the torment levels, you will receive in Diablo 4 the quest “Echo of Hatred”, for which you must face a tough boss. How to defeat the echo of Lilith and how to find the dungeon is explained here on MeinMMO.

What is the quest about? With the unlocking of torment level 1 you will receive the quest “Echo of Hatred”. You need to find the echo of hatred, as “Lilith’s presence still echoes in your mind” after you have completed the main story of Diablo 4.

To complete the quest “Echo of Hatred”, it is sufficient to enter the dungeon. If you do not defeat the echo of Lilith, the quest is still accomplished.

What kind of boss fight is this? This is the boss fight against Lilith. However, this is not the Lilith from the campaign, but her echo. Lilith is a pretty tough nut in this version, and to defeat her, you need to consider a few things.

Where can I find the echo of Lilith? You can find the echo of Lilith on the torment levels in the final dungeon “Echo of Hatred” at the waypoint “Nevesk”, southwest of Kyovashad. Lilith’s level corresponds to the torment level you are on.

Echo of Lilith – Attacks and Abilities

The echo of Lilith has two phases – Embodied Hatred and Mother of Humanity. Additionally, she has two types of attacks that can literally make your life hell: normal attacks and attacks that can one-shot you, meaning kill you with one hit.

Phase 1 – Embodied Hatred

In the first phase, there is a bloody circle on the ground that spatially restricts the combat area. Be careful not to step out of the circle while dodging, as you could die.

Lilith attacks you with blood orbs and a melee attack using her wings. She also spawns a kind of “fire lines” on the ground when she has more than 70% health. Over time, Lilith spawns a wave of spikes that can deal deadly damage.

Then Lilith flies up and markings appear on the ground. Lilith’s shadow clones jump into the areas and unleash another wave of spikes. Lilith herself comes back down and spawns a fourth wave of spikes.

Phase 2 – Mother of Humanity

In the second phase, Lilith spawns blood bubbles that can slow you down and make you vulnerable. During certain attacks in this phase, blood bubbles create deadly red souls that pursue you. Similar to the first phase, Lilith performs a melee attack here as well, but this time with her tail.

Lilith flies back into the air, pulls all enemies together, and slows them for 3 seconds. In the process, she spawns ghouls that attack you. After a delay of 2 seconds, Lilith strikes the ground, causing deadly damage in a large circle.

Then Lilith throws you back and attacks you with area damage from three lines, in the shape of a trident, causing heavy damage. She performs this again, after which a shadow clone does the same. This is followed by a shadow explosion on the ground that deals deadly damage.

Lilith then flies high and leaves the combat area. When she returns, she covers the ground with a thick layer of cursed blood. After a delay of 3 seconds, the blood ignites and deals deadly damage for 2 seconds to all enemies trapped within.

If Lilith’s health drops below 85%, she separates a part of the platform you are on with her wings. 6 seconds later, the severed section falls into the abyss, instantly killing any players standing on it. As the platform crumbles and for 2 seconds afterwards, deadly red souls will pursue you.

Then Lilith separates a second part of the platform, teleports to the middle, and uses a ground strike. If Lilith’s health drops below 30%, she will destroy the last corner of the platform. This phase is particularly difficult to survive as the combat area is very small and you have little space to dodge Lilith’s attacks and the red souls that pursue you.

Echo of Lilith – Tips for the Fight

• Test your builds beforehand on the training dummies in Kyovashad.
• Movement speed is very important here, especially to escape attacks faster. Boots with multiple charges for evasion can also be helpful to dodge more often.
• If your class allows it, add mobility skills like Teleport or Dash to your bar and a skill that makes you immune – like Blood Mist (Necro) or Flame Shield (Sorcerer).
• You can either dodge the spike waves, make yourself immune, or position yourself behind Lilith when her position allows it.
• To dodge the “trident” lines, move away from Lilith and run in a large circle. The middle prong is always aimed directly at you, so move laterally. To avoid walking into one of the side prongs, you need to be far enough away from Lilith.
• If Lilith’s health falls below 70% (below 40%), she will summon 2 (3) enemies that attack you. These deal little damage, so be careful to dodge Lilith’s aerial attacks while killing the enemies. Stay at the edge of the arena and let them come to you.
• After the third platform destruction, it is extremely difficult to stay alive and deal damage, as the combat area gets smaller and more dangerous. Try to “stagger” Lilith with CC skills (making her helpless with crowd-control attacks) and then deal as much damage as possible to shorten this phase of the fight or kill her. With this strategy, one player managed to defeat Lilith – but he had to change his gear in the middle.
• Staggering Lilith allows you to deal uninterrupted damage for 5 seconds – identifiable by the blue bar under her health. If you stagger her before her health falls below 70% and kill her before the stagger ends, you skip the most difficult parts of the first phase.
• If you die often in the fight, teleport to a city between fights to repair your damaged gear.

What rewards can I expect? If you defeat the echo of Lilith, you receive a bit of loot (in our case it was 2 legendaries), the mount “Bloodsoaked Steed”, achievements, and player titles. The last two rewards depend on whether you defeated Lilith alone or in a group, as you can see from the 3rd screenshot:
