Diablo 4 changes promise a very different Server Slam
As the Diablo 4 Server Slam start time approaches, a raft of Diablo 4 changes promise an experience rather different from the previous open betas. As Blizzard continues to hone one of the biggest RPG games of the year before launch, it appears that some pretty hefty Diablo 4 patch notes mean it’ll feel like almost an entirely new game from the last time we got hands-on with it.

Best Diablo 4 Druid build
Want to know what the best Diablo 4 Druid build is? Much like the Necromancer, the Diablo 4 open beta this weekend gives players their first chance to get their grubby paws on the Druid class. They are a bestial class with dominion over the elements and spirit animals that join their cause. If all else fails, though, they can always shift into a Werebeast and tear their demonic foes to shreds. Of all the classes, they’re perhaps the most underused, but Diablo 4 makes an effort to make them appealing.
To stand a chance against the forces of evil, you’ll need to make the best Diablo 4 Druid build. So far, we’ve seen only datamined information regarding the Druid’s many options for weapons, armour, and skills which will be available in the full game. The Diablo 4 Druid class skills can go in several directions, with wolves, ravens, and even plant monsters among the companions on offer. Nature also governs the Druid’s magic skills, with the best of them having domain over earth, wind, and lightning elements. The Diablo 4 Server Slam start time isn’t far away, so this is the chance to try the Druid, including all of the balance updates, in advance of potentially one of the best PC games of 2023. Here are some pointers to send you in the right direction.

Diablo 4 classes guide – best builds for all five classes
Want to know about the Diablo 4 classes? Since the game was revealed in late 2019, fans have been speculating what each of the five classes will bring to the game. We now know that the five classes are: Necromancer, Rogue, Sorceress, Barbarian, and Druid.
Every Diablo 4 class has its own unique skill tree, allowing players to pick which abilities they want to use. Unlike Diablo 3 which featured set character designs, each class’s appearance in Diablo 4 can be customised, even down to the skin colour of each character. Diablo 4’s release date may be a few weeks away, but we’ve had hands-on experience with the Diablo 4 beta, and there’s the Server Slam this weekend to try out, so there’s every chance for you to chop monsters if you want to. Here are the best Diablo 4 builds that we found during our playthrough.

Diablo 4 Whispering Keys and Silent Chests explained
In order to open silent chests, you need to find Diablo 4 Whispering Keys. These elusive containers are locked, but opening them grants you valuable treasures that could contain exactly what you need to make the build of your dreams. Therefore to ensure you have a Whispering Key whenever you come across a silent chest, it’s worth stocking up on as many keys as you can physically carry.
So far, we’ve found one way to find the Diablo 4 Whispering Keys to open the silent chests. The good news is that it’s rather easy to achieve in the RPG games, but it does require that you complete optional randomly generated side objectives. So if you want the best chance at getting some of the top items in Diablo 4, we’re here to help you get more than enough whispering keys to last your entire adventure.

Diablo 4 Obols explained
Want to know more about Diablo 4 Obols? During your travels in Diablo 4, you’re definitely going to pick up Murmuring Obols at some point. Obols are a currency that can be traded at a Purveyor of Curiosities vendor, represented by a sack with a question mark next to stacked coins.
The Murmuring Obols are represented in the RPG game as two purple coins. We don’t know exactly how this mechanic will work until the Diablo 4 release date arrives, but this method was used during the last beta windows to obtain legendaries very easily. We’ll help you to know all about Diablo 4 Obols, including where you can find them, where you can spend them, and more.

Diablo 4 skill trees explained
Wondering how the Diablo 4 skill tree works? The Diablo 4 release date is getting closer, so you may want to learn more about how the class skill trees will work when the dungeon crawling role playing game finally arrives.
To make the most out of the skill tree system, you can follow our Diablo 4 classes guide, where we’ve dug deep to help you decide the best class to play. Although the options of abilities you find for each of them are fixed, new additions to the game are going to be constantly made in order to revitalize the players’ experience and balance the builds, according to Blizzard’s dev update blog.
Blizzard is “currently aiming for 30-40% of the nodes filled in for endgame, so that players can have very distinct, and different ways they build out their character.” It looks like we can expect an increased emphasis on choosing particular skill branches to explore when customising our character, in contrast to building characters around powerful items and equipment. Here’s how the skill tree will work in Diablo 4.

Players are readying up to hit the Diablo 4 servers hard this weekend, as the final beta before the Diablo 4 release date launches on PC and console.
