     Diablo 4 may be getting way harder, as data mine finds new world tier

Diablo 4 is perhaps about to become much harder, so if you've been repeatedly slain in Sanctuary and wasted by the Wandering Death, buckle up - the Blizzard RPG game potentially has some much greater challenges on the horizon. As it stands, Diablo 4 world tiers number one to four, with four, naturally, the highest and toughest. Evidence from a recent data mine however suggests an incoming world tier 5, as well as additional inventory and equipment classifications to help you overcome this apparent new ordeal. Steel yourselves, Diablo 4 veterans, and try to think of it as practice for the potential arrival of Hell Cows.

     Best Diablo 4 builds from Blizzard devs and our experts

What are the best Diablo 4 builds? From the haunted forests of Scosglen to the whispering winter winds of the Fractured Peaks, choosing the best Diablo 4 builds is a must for avid fans of Blizzard's RPG. While I could bore you with horrible, mid-tier troll builds, I've got something better. From PCGamesN's exclusive interviews with some of Sanctuary's finest, I have a list of the builds that the developers are obsessed with so that you can try them, too.

Of the five current Diablo 4 classes, the developers lean very much towards the enchanting Sorcerer and their myriad of different elemental magics. I, however, will be locking in Diablo 4's Rogue, so have included my personal favorite Diablo build for those who prefer to spend their time scheming away in the shadows. Additionally, we've also got all of the links out to our dedicated build guides down below, which we created after many hours of hands-on time. You can read more about that in our Diablo 4 review for a full rundown.

     All Diablo 4 fast travel points

Where are all the Diablo 4 fast travel points? Walking is your only option when starting in Diablo 4, you're exposed to Sanctuary and all its horrors from the off, and while this is a great way of earning XP and discovering the hidden gems of the land, it can wear thin after a while. Thankfully, there is another way.

The fast travel points of Diablo 4 are a way to instantly teleport each of the Diablo 4 classes from one point to another. They can be found in towns and occasionally in the wild, so if you're like us, it's worth taking some time out and activating as many of these waypoints as possible to make darting around the Diablo 4 map much easier. Now that the Diablo 4 release date is here, why not use these maps to plan your route ahead of time using the fast travel points we've found?

     All Diablo 4 dungeon locations

Where are all the Diablo 4 dungeon locations? You'll find most of them naturally. Dungeons are instanced, partially procedurally-generated areas full of monsters to kill and small puzzles to solve as you work your way to the boss. They're a great way to earn XP, grab some shiny new loot, and earn some game-changing Aspects for your class.

Although you can attempt any Diablo 4 dungeon once it has been discovered, you may want to do some research on your current class and see which dungeon rewards you with the most effective Aspect for your current build. Our aim is to collect information on every dungeon in Diablo 4, beginning with Fractured Peaks. Check out our Diablo 4 review if you've yet to have a taste of just how good this RPG game is.

     All Diablo 4 Altar of Lilith locations

Where are all Diablo 4 Altar of Lilith locations? Finding these statues dedicated to the Mother of Sanctuary will reward every character on your account with permanent stat boosts. These boosts can buff one of your core stats, increase how many Murmuring Obols you can carry, or even award Paragon Points. Finding an Altar of Lilith also rewards you with Renown for the zone it's in.

These boosts might seem minor, but the sheer number of Altars of Lilith on the map - about 30 in each of Diablo 4's five zones - means that you'll receive a huge power boost if you find them all. We've traversed absolutely every corner of the Diablo 4 map to bring you every Altar of Lilith location. You need to find them if you plan to create the best build for any of the Diablo 4 classes.

     Diablo 4 Ashava spawn times, location, and how to beat

What are the Diablo 4 Ashava spawn times? Ashava the Pestilent effortlessly steals the lives of wayward adventurers using its scythed talons – but you won't find her lurking at the end of a dungeon. Instead, Ashava's hellish portal only appears at set spawn times and locations. She's easy to miss, but we're here to help ensure you both locate and beat her with minutes to spare.

While Ashava is just one Diablo 4 world boss of many, in our experience, she's the one you're most likely to encounter since she often spawns in the starting region of the Diablo 4 map. That said, you'll find her a tough opponent regardless of which Diablo 4 classes you choose to play. We've taken her down, so here are all the tips we have to help you beat Ashava the Pestilent, as well as her location and spawn times.
