Diablo Immortal offers raids, like any decent MMO. The raids are designed for 8 players and provide special rewards. However, you need to unlock this feature first – through the Helliquary. MeinMMO explains what you need to know about it.

What is the Helliquary? The Helliquary is an item that you need to collect. The mythical item is supposed to capture and seal the souls of powerful demons.

In Diablo Immortal, the Helliquary serves to unlock raids, where you can face a special boss with 8 players each week. Additionally, the Helliquary can be upgraded to provide you with special buffs.

Why should I use it? The upgrades of the Helliquary serve to strengthen your character. On one hand, you receive a buff to your combat rating, and on the other hand, an enhancement specifically in challenge portals.

However, to receive the rewards, you first need to obtain and then upgrade the Helliquary. We will reveal how this all works.

Here you will find everything you need to know about Diablo Immortal in 3 minutes:

Obtaining and Using the Helliquary

Where do I get the Helliquary? The questline for the Soul Helliquary starts around level 45. After completing the story in the Pestilent Marshes, you will receive a quest from Deckard Cain that leads you to the Barbarian blacksmith Rayek. If you get stuck on the way, you can find some tips here: XP Wall in Diablo Immortal: 5 tips for leveling during story standstill

Rayek shows you his invention, the Soul Helliquary. In a short questline, you will be introduced to its function:

• you are to pick up and interact with the Helliquary
• a portal opens and Westmark seems to be overrun by demons
• you must fight back the demons and wake up from the vision
• talk to Cain about the experience and return to the Helliquary

The vision repeats there, where this time you have to face the Chaos Herald Pyl directly. Defeat the boss, and you will encounter Lassal, the first real raid boss of the game. You will fail, but afterwards, you will have unlocked the Helliquary as a feature.

How do I start raids? To face Lassal and later other raid bosses, you need to assemble a group of up to 8 players. The bosses are supposed to be soloable as well, but you actually need a group.

Go to the Frozen Tree in the center of Westmark and interact with the Helliquary there. First, you select a difficulty, which will show you the combat rating you should have for it. Choose Loot or Troop Loot to start the search.

You will then enter a menu, where you can either search for open groups or create your own. Join other players or open a group and invite friends. Optionally, you can wait until your raid fills up on its own.

Once you have enough players together, you can start. You will probably first face Lassal, the first available boss of the game. The fight takes place in a small room and is only against Lassal himself.

Defeating Bosses and Upgrading the Helliquary

How to defeat the bosses: Bosses have more abilities than regular enemies or “packs” in Diablo Immortal. Lassal, for example, attacks you with a flame bow, a fire beam, and bombs that detonate on different players.

Unlike in the open world or in dungeons, you need more coordination and possibly the right classes for support. Crusaders, Monks, and Necromancers are useful for keeping the group alive.

You can find the best classes in Diablo Immortal in the tier list and all 6 classes with gameplay in the video:

In the weeks and months after release, more and more bosses will be added to the Helliquary that you can defeat. So far, the following are known:

• Chaos Herald Pyl
• Lassal the Flame-bound
• Vitaath the Deathbringer
• Gorgothra the Ravager
• Beledwe and Gishtur
• Izilech the Defaced

For some of these bosses, you will need to upgrade the Helliquary first. For this, you will need a special material: Hellfire Scoria.

How to upgrade the Helliquary: To upgrade it, you need to refine regular Scoria at a blacksmith for a fee of 100 gold per unit. You receive Scoria by defeating Helliquary demons, in the Battle Pass, or through the paid section of the path of the prodigy.

Each upgrade of the Helliquary will cost you more Scoria, but will also provide you with a higher combat rating. Additionally, you will unlock slots where you can seal demonic relics.

The relics are special loot from Helliquary demons and further increase your combat rating. They also boost certain character stats while you are in challenge portals.

By the way, the Helliquary is not the only way to visit raids. The Immortal, the server’s leaders, even get a raid for 48 players:

Diablo Immortal: Join the Shadows or become Immortal? All info about the factions

In Diablo Immortal, a secret war rages between two factions, the Shadows and the Immortals. You can get to know both factions and join them, but only if you are worthy. MeinMMO reveals everything you need to know about the system.

What are Shadows and Immortals? The two factions are humans or Nephalem who ensure the protection of the world. They are the frontline against the forces of hell and heaven. The entire story of Diablo Immortal is based on them.

In the MMO, the two factions serve as competing parties in PvP. They fight against each other in battles. Certain content is reserved exclusively for members of the Shadows or the Immortals, and few players will ever see the biggest of these events.

While pursuing the campaign in Diablo Immortal, you will encounter the Shadows and the Immortals starting at level 43 and will be offered to join the Shadows. However, it’s not as easy as it sounds. MeinMMO explains how to do it and why it’s worth it.

In the video, you will learn everything you need to know about Diablo Immortal in 3 minutes:

Becoming a Shadow in Diablo Immortal

How do I join the Shadows? At level 43, you will receive a quest through your guide to familiarize yourself with the Shadows and the Immortals. You are supposed to complete some tasks that will explain what the factions are about.

Along the way, you will learn about the game modes that await you, and eventually even the final battle of the “Cycle of Strife”. The quests only require you to dispose of certain opponents in specific instances.

The actual joining of the Shadows comes afterward. You will be asked to join the Shadow lottery. This takes place every day at 12:00 PM, 6:00 PM, and 9:00 PM server time. Here’s how to join:

• visit the Mysterious Guest in the tavern in Westmark
• sign up for the Shadow lottery
• if you are selected, visit the guest again
• face Akeba’s trial, in which you must defeat 3 champions

The trial is not particularly difficult. Should you fail it or not be selected, you can enter the lottery again. Alternatively, players who are already Shadows can simply invite you.

How do I invite someone? For winning the trial, you will receive Akeba’s emblem. If you are accepted into the Shadows, you will receive 2 – one for yourself and one for someone else.

If you want to invite a friend or interested person, just select them in your friends list. By clicking or tapping on their portrait, the context menu will open. Select “Invite to Shadows” and your friend will have the opportunity to join.

As a Shadow, you can also participate in the lottery. If you are selected, you must take the trial again and receive additional emblems to invite new members.

What advantages do Shadows have? Shadows can rise in reputation ranks, which grant them bonuses to damage and defense. They also have access to special content that rewards them even more:

• Contracts that reward with a lot of experience points, gold, and items
• Path of Blood for more points to rank up
• Looting the treasury for tons of gold, Hilt, and a chance at Legendaries
• Meetings that provide a small boost of resources
• the great Shadow war against the Immortals, more on that below

As a Shadow, you should also look for a clan, as there are additional benefits such as more experience points. This is especially worth it during leveling but also later for Paragon levels.

Shadow Clans and Why They Are Worth It

Shadows can no longer join “normal” adventurer clans. Some players painfully realize this when they are expelled from their own guilds. Instead, there are special Shadow clans.

These also accommodate 100 players and offer benefits such as 10% more experience or faster rank increases. In a Shadow clan, you collectively earn points for the clan rank to compete with other clans.

The best clans then compete in a large showdown weekly, with a chance to become Immortals – effectively the bosses of the server.

Here you can see more about endgame and the last areas of Diablo Immortal:

Shadows or Immortals? These are the factions

The Immortals are something like the protectors of the world. To them, great power has been granted. The Shadows are there to continuously test the Immortals to ensure their power does not corrupt them.

In Diablo Immortal, this means that the Shadows and the Immortals constantly fight against each other. If it turns out that the Immortals are no longer the best fighters, new Shadows rise to become the rulers – your chance to become Immortal.

Joining the Immortals

Every week from Monday morning to Tuesday evening, Shadow clans can sign up for the Shadow War. This will take place during the week and has several stages:

• the Shadow War filters out the 10 strongest clans of the Shadows
• from those clans, 8 selected players face off against 8 Immortals each
• in the Ritual of Banishment, the Shadows must win at least 6 of the battles
• if victorious, they can challenge the leader of the Immortals
• in a 30 vs. 1 battle, the Immortal must be toppled
• if the Shadows are again victorious here, a Battle Royale begins
• the winners become the new Immortals

This is currently the only known way to become Immortal, with up to 500 Immortals per server. Since the first Shadow War will culminate on June 12, 2022, we will be able to reveal more about the exact process from there.

Currently (June 8), it is not yet possible to become Immortal.

Check out the 6 classes with gameplay and take a look at the best classes of Diablo Immortal in the tier list:

What advantages do Immortals have?

Similar to Shadows, Immortals have access to special content. They also rank up, which strengthens them and can prevent the Shadows from raiding their treasury. Additionally, they gain access to:

• special offers at the Hilt vendor
• buffs for attack speed, critical hit chance, and more for the group
• weekly rewards based on participation
• a statue and banners in Westmark and a mention on the honor wall

However, the greatest feature is Kion’s Trial. Here, 48 players can score great rewards in a raid. The trial is divided into 4 groups of 12 players, each of whom must defeat their own bosses.

von Benedict Grothaus

Be aware that some of this content may change and some information is still based on the beta phase. The first Shadow War is still forthcoming, and in the interview about the future of Diablo Immortal, the head, Wyatt Cheng, revealed that some changes have been made to this very PvP concept. What exactly that is, we will only know later.

The Necromancer of Diablo Immortal is a class with a lot of damage that unleashes unholy summons on enemies. MeinMMO shows you a strong build with all the important elements: skills, attributes, and equipment.

In Diablo Immortal, it’s all about hunting for the best loot and optimizing your own build. So that you know what equipment and attributes to look for as a Necromancer, you will find here a strong build with all the essential information:

• Attributes
• Skills & Rotation
• Legendary Equipment
• Best Set
• Gems

By the way, a class switch feature will come at a later date. You can watch all 6 classes with gameplay in our video:

Diablo Immortal: Necromancer Build

What kind of class is this? The Necromancer, or in German Totenbeschwörer, is a very versatile class. Standard builds focus on damage, but the class is also a strong group support and can even take on tank roles thanks to its summons.

Although the summons are a significant part of the gameplay of the Necromancer, you are playing a class that maximizes damage from its primary attack. Your ultimate attack, which enhances the primary attacks, also spreads heavy damage across multiple enemies. Your corpse explosions also contribute significantly to the damage.

This build maximizes your damage potential with primary attacks and ensures that your strong “Area of Effect” skills deal damage to any enemy that gets too close.

In comparison to other classes, the Necromancer has less mobility and long cooldowns. You also need to pay close attention to the battlefield and your paths to fully exploit the damage potential with the enemies’ corpses.

If you’re still unsure which class suits you best, check out our class tier list for Diablo Immortal.

Necro Build: The Most Important Attributes

Here you will find the most important attributes for your equipment ranked:

1. Intelligence – Increases damage
2. Persistence – Increases armor penetration and armor
3. Vitality – Gives you more life
4. Willpower – Increases potential and resistance
5. Strength – Does not provide bonuses to the Necro

For weapons and off-hand, you should choose the maximum damage first and then pay attention to the attributes.

Necro Build: Skills and Rotation

The following 4 skills deal the most damage with the build. However, keep in mind that most skills are additionally changed by legendary equipment:

• Spirit Fire (Primary Attack)
• Command Golem
• Bone Wall
• Corpse Explosion
• Command Skeletons

Rotation: Summon the Golem and pull enemies together with your movements. Use the Bone Wall to crowd enemies further. Activate the Golem ability a second time and let the behemoth jump into the crowd. Keep sending corpses into the air – this ability has virtually no cooldown.

To target specific enemies, send your skeletons. They are very good for dealing strong single-target damage. If you don’t have an enemy you want to target specifically, send your skeletons into the fighting pile without a target.

During your rotation, continuously fire your primary attack at everything that the target-seeking function identifies as a worthwhile victim. Stop your primary attack only when you need to move or when gathering new groups of enemies.

von Maik Schneider

Necro Build: Legendary Equipment

For the 6 slots of legendary equipment, the following items provide you with great bonuses:

• Weapon: Desolatoria
  • Bonus: “Command Golem” now summons a molten Golem that continuously burns nearby enemies, instead of forcing them to attack or stunning them.
• Off-Weapon: Baleful Trinity
  • Bonus: Primary attack “Spirit Fire” jumps to another target, dealing 30% less damage with each additional target.
• Head: Visitant’s Sign
  • Bonus: Duration of “Command Golem” increased by 30%.

  • Bonus: “Bone Wall” now summons a line of skeleton soldiers that charge forward, dealing damage to enemies and pushing them back.
• Shoulder: Rotspur
  • Bonus: “Corpse Explosion” no longer makes corpses explode, but instead causes them to contaminate the area, poisoning enemies for continuous damage.
• Legs: Sacral Chausses
  • Bonus: Duration of “Bone Wall” increased by 30%.

Necro Build: The Best Set with Location

The set “Shepherd’s Call to Wolves” is by far the best set for the Necromancer. It buffs all your summons and even allows you to enter a frenzy mode that greatly increases damage. Your primary attacks also receive a boost through crit chances:

• Set Bonuses: Shepherd’s Call to Wolves
  • 2-Piece Set: Your summons deal 15% more damage.
  • 4-Piece Set: The critical hit chance is increased by 3% for each of your summoned creatures, up to a maximum of 18%.
  • 6-Piece Set: Your summoned creatures enter a berserk state for 10 seconds each time one of them lands a critical hit. The berserk state increases their damage and attack speed by 100%. This effect can only occur once every 40 seconds.

The set pieces each have their own dungeon where you can grind for them:

• Neck: Shepherd and Architect
  • Source: Tomb of Fahir / Hell II+
• Ring I: Shepherd and Mother
  • Source: Breach of the Mad King / Hell IV+
• Ring II: Shepherd and Father
  • Source: Forgotten Tower / Hell IV+
• Hands: Shepherd and Zoologist
  • Source: The End of Destruction / Hell II+
• Waist: Shepherd and Producer
  • Source: Kikuras’s Rapid / Hell I+
• Feet: Shepherd and Leader
  • Source: Temple of Namari / Hell I+

In English, this set is called “Shepherd’s Call to Wolves”.

Necro Build: Normal and Legendary Gems

For the normal gems, the following ranking applies for this Necromancer build:

• Blue Slot: Sapphire better than Aquamarine
  • Armor penetration is better than armor
• Red Slot: Tourmaline better than Ruby
  • Damage is better than life
• Yellow Slot: Citrine better than Topaz
  • Reducing resistance is better than receiving resistance

To specifically farm normal gems, the hidden hoards are suitable:

Constantly, a summoned monster jumps into enemy groups and your poison effects tear through their ranks. Added to that is a painful primary attack that consistently provides AoE damage.
