You have the opportunity to farm the items and legendaries you are looking for in Diablo 4. An overview by Diablo expert Wudijo shows where this is best done, although it comes with a lot of details. Now other players are showing their significantly simpler cheat sheets.
Who is the expert?
- Wudijo is one of the most well-known Diablo players in the world with deep expertise in Diablo 4. He streams on Twitch, publishes videos on YouTube, and creates guides on maxroll.
- Many players trust the expert’s assessments. His opinion significantly influences the tier list of the best builds in Diablo 4.
- Additionally, Wudijo was the first player to reach the maximum level in Hardcore mode in Diablo 4, only to lose his character shortly thereafter in a rather unfortunate manner.
This is the cheat sheet: In a Google document, Wudijo has listed all nightmare dungeons and categorized them into a tier list across four categories. He details, for instance, how long the dungeons take, what enemies you find there, and whether they are better suited for farming XP or leveling glyphs.
For casuals, the information is absolutely overwhelming and likely too extensive to truly digest. Roughly, the cheat sheet indicates:
- The “best nightmare dungeons” are:
- Aldurwood (Scosglen)
- Sunken Ruins (Scosglen)
- Wilderness of Raethwind (Scosglen)
- Tormented Woods (Shattered Peaks)
- Blind Caves (Hawezar)
- Witch Water (Hawezar)
- You should avoid:
- Onyx Fortress (Dry Steppes)
- Zenith (Shattered Peaks)
- Whispering Pines (Scosglen)
The difficulty of nightmare dungeons is determined by seals that you receive. Especially at medium to low difficulties, they are often used for farming legendaries. Right here, a player has created an even better overview.

Simple overview helps in targeted farming in Diablo 4
On Reddit, the user SuppressiveFire does not show a tier list for all dungeons, but rather a useful table with some data about each nightmare dungeon. This includes information like the type of enemies, objectives, and bosses.
Right here, the cheat sheet is more useful, as you can clearly read which item you will get in which dungeon. The type of enemies determines what kind of loot you are more likely to find there:
- Daggers and maces from bandits
- Crossbows, shields, and swords from skeletons
- Foci, chest armors, gloves, and two-handed swords from spiders
- You can find a summary of all enemy types and what they drop on MeinMMO
Especially if you are already at the point where you can easily play much higher levels, the dungeons at lower seals are perfect for targeted farming. Ideal are seal levels starting at 31. Here, the enemies are level 85, giving a chance to drop the “Uber Uniques”.
With the overview, you can also see which objectives you need to complete for the finish. Depending on your build, certain tasks may be easier for you. For an average completion time, you can additionally refer to Wudijo’s cheat sheet.
