Diablo 3: Season 24 Level Guide - Quickly to the max level

 In our level guide for Season 24 in Diablo 3 we show you how you can quickly reach the max level of level 70. It's a kind of speed leveling. We shows you the steps with and without Challenge Rift.

What does the guide show you? Here we introduce you to how you quickly level your new season character in Season 24 of Diablo 3 to the maximum level 70. We are talking about experienced Diablo 3 players who have already taken one or the other season with them. Bloody beginners who are just getting started with this hack-and-slay should take the time to level and not rush.

Quickly level in Season 24

You have to know that : In general, the leveling in Diablo 3 has hardly changed. What is new is that you can now equip your companions better while leveling.

In the last few seasons our team had good experiences with the level method, which includes the challenge portal (Challenge Rift). In combination with Kanai's Cube, you will receive strong bonuses early on.

Here we introduce you to the method with and without a challenge portal. If you've already done your portal this week or just don't feel like doing it, skip the first part and read on after the section about the Challenge Rift.

Start with challenge portal

How to start : After the start of Season 24 in Diablo 3, you create a Seasonal Hero. Enter the game with this character and then leave it again in the main menu.

Now go to the game settings and then click on the option for the challenge portal on the left. It is very important that you have chosen your Seasonal Hero before entering the portal.

Note: This is only possible if you have already completed a large nephalem portal in Diablo 3. If you haven't done this with your account yet, skip this step.

What is that good for? The big reward for the Challenge Rift will help you get off to a good start into the new season. For the successful completion of the portal you will receive:

• Bounty Material (15 each)
• 35 breath of death
• 475 Splinters of Blood
• Crafting material
• plus 4.6 million gold

This is how it continues after the portal: The first part of the preparation is now complete. Now it is a matter of implementing this advantage in the game.

• Go back to the Diablo 3 menu
• Now select the adventure mode on the difficulty "Master"
• Once in the game, you open the reward bag that was given for the successful challenge portal - it is displayed in the interface
• Now grab the weapon of the Templar or another companion - it is always stronger than the starter weapon of your class
• Optional: Complete a boss bounty now. Maghda, Zoltun Kull, Belial or the Skeleton King are particularly suitable for this. If one of these bosses has a bounty, you should do it. Strong items are waiting for you right away
• Then you go to Act 3 to unlock Kanai's Cube. This is an important step in making effective use of the challenge portal step. 

Get a legendary item

Once you have unlocked Kanai's Cube, you travel back to the city and visit your blacksmith there. You then fully upgrade it, which is no problem for you thanks to the materials collected from the Challenge Rift. Now you build a yellow armor or yellow weapon for level 70. What you choose from it depends on your class.

In the following table we show you which items could be worthwhile for you depending on the class. The plan is that you upgrade a yellow item in Kanai's cube to a legendary item and then withdraw the legendary power with Kanai's cube and activate it on you. You can find out how to do this in the guide to Kanai's Cube linked above.

So you carry the legendary power with you in the early levels.

class	Splinters of blood	Cube upgrade
Barbarian	Bracers (lvl 1)	Mighty 1H weapon - 6/8 Mighty 2H weapon - 3/6
Crusader	Shield / bracers (lvl 1)	2H flail - 6/8 1H flail - 4/7
Demon Hunter	Bracers (lvl 1)	Dagger - 2/2
monk	Shoes / bracers (lvl 1)	Fist weapon - 8/12 Daibo - 4/8
Necromancer	Gloves (lvl 1) - rings = risky	2H Sense - 4/4
Witch doctor	Mojo (lvl 1), voodoo mask (lvl 34)	Ceremonial knife - 8/12
wizard	Source (lvl 33) - Rings (lvl 28) = risky	1H wand - 6/10

Depending on your chosen class, there are certain items at level 1 that you can exchange at Kadala in town. You received splinters of blood from the reward bag. At what level which items drop for you, learn it on D3planner.com .

Level from 1 to 70 - that's how it works

Do you have a strong, legendary power now? Then leveling will be even easier for you. If you skipped the step, you can now simply start here.

Level 1 - 24

This is your choice: Depending on your preferred play style, you either level up with massacre bonuses in the Halls of Agony to level 1-3 or clear nephalem portals and complete them. Leveling up with massacre bonuses takes a little practice.

Solo players should move up quickly with Massacre bonuses. Group players can do this up to level 30, but should then switch to normal nephalem portals, because as a group it usually progresses quickly.

With these methods you will level up to level 24.

• Every 8-10 levels you go to your blacksmith and try to make a more powerful weapon with him
• Periodically visit the vendors in town They could sell you rings or amulets that offer “+ damage” as an affix. These are great for leveling
• If you loot a head item with a socket, it is best to put a red gemstone in there, which will then give you more experience points. If you have weapons with a socket, red gemstones are also suitable here. They directly do more damage in the level phase.

During your game phase you should always adjust the difficulty. Trash mobs should tip out of the mountain with 1-3 blows. If almost everything is a one-hit for you, then the difficulty turns up. If you need a lot longer, you put the game on an easier difficulty.

Level 24 - 40

From now on, experience has shown that it is best to level with nephalem portals.

• You should complete these portals as quickly as possible (so adjust the difficulty accordingly)
• Tip for groups: Designate a player who will immediately close the portal after the death of the rift boss. In the remaining 30 seconds until it closes, he then returns to the group and everyone continues to kill mobs in the portal together.

Level 40 - 70

After reaching level 40 you teleport into the city and visit the mystic there. You are now fully developing this.

• Now make a yellow 2H weapon for level 70 from the
• blacksmith.
• Did you get such a weapon?
• No? Then go ahead, farm mats and try again.
• Yes? Then go to the mystic and roll over the other secondary bonus (not the one with the%). You want to get a level reduction that comes as close as possible to 30 levels
• As soon as you can carry these weapons, equip them and turn the difficulty really high. In the best case, you already carry a 70s weapon at level 40. Then set it to Torment 6 and slowly feel your way down if that is still too difficult.
• Due to the high damage output of the 70s weapon, you should be making good progress now

Level up to 70: From now on you can level up well through nephalem portals. With or without a 70s gun, this is the way to go. With a 70 weapon it is best to be at a high level of torture - without a 70 weapon then on a difficulty where you can quickly finish the portal.

Now grind the portals up to level 70.

What happens after 70?

Which build you play now and start the season journey depends entirely on you. As a reward for the seasonal journey, you will receive 24 starter sets in Season 24, which play an important role in the Great Rifts.

Pick a set that you want to play and complete the season journey chapter by chapter. You then open Haedrig's gifts with the class from which you want to use the starter set. With a bonus of 6 you can already play at the high qualification levels and earn the keys for the big rifts in normal rifts.

Now the grind can start properly.

Which level method do you use to approach the new season? Do you make full use of the revised companions or are you out and about with friends?
