The Season of Loot Reborn, which is Diablo 4’s endgame, features have greatly improved compared to what is currently available in the Diablo III console version through a new activity called The Pit. This activity is all similar to the Greater Rifts from Diablo 3, in which the gamers fight for as many dungeons as possible within the time limit.
If The Pit is cleared successfully before time runs out, players are given Masterwork materials and Stygian Hearts which are used to summon the hardest bosses in the game. In this guide, you will be able to learn all about The Pit – from unlocking this activity and obtaining Runeshards to the yields you will be able to get from farming this activity.
What Is The Pit?
The Pit is a survival course where players are thrown into a dystopian like gauntlet and must kill enemies and a boss in as little time as possible. This occurs in an obelisk located in Cerrigar, Scosglen; it is an end game object which uses Runeshards to participate in. Players get Runeshards from all sorts of World Tier 4 content. Finishing The Pit grants players with Masterwork materials used to upgrade high-level equipment.
How The Pit Works?
Each run of The Pit has to be completed within 15 minutes. At this time they are to clear two sets of dungeon enemies and also eliminate a dungeon boss. If you die death penalties are there where you lose 30, 60 or 90 seconds in the current run based on how many times death has occurred. Thus, a character with decent attack power boosted with skills and heal points is developed as essential to achieve victory.
Farming The Pit is best saved for endgame since the game rewards the players consistently with materials that are used to upgrade their gears. It also becomes a good way of testing the efficiency of the build of the character in the game.
Unlocking The Pit
Fodders’ have to complete the quest “Pit of the Artificer” which unlocks for the players in World Tier 4: Nightmare difficulty to access The Pit. Consultants are allowed to begin with their runs after the ending of the particular mission and the Pit obelisk is located in Cerrigar.
Pit Tiers and Difficulty
Just like the Nightmare Dungeons, the Pit has different levels divided by tiers, where the Tier 1 is with the level 100 and the Tier 200 one is with the level 300. The Pit is not random as such but it is still a game, set in the high-level adversaries and the time limit sense.
Earning Runeshards
Players have to get Runeshards before getting to The Pit since Runeshards are required to start a run. All the events of World Tier 4 that are the World Bosses, Helltide chests, Nightmare Dungeons, Legion Events and some of the fights will reward players with runeshards. Three Runeshards is the money required for each Pit run, whether successful or not, it is impossible to get that money back.
Pit Rewards
The primary benefit of completing the quest called The Pit is the Masterwork materials that allow the players to enhance the equipment beyond the norm. Hence, it is masterworked to increase the rating of stats on all item affixes. Masterwork differs from the Tempering method by the fact that the latter can be applied to both Legendary and Unique items. Masterwork materials come in three varieties:Masterwork materials come in three varieties:
- Obducite: The easiest material to acquire it enhances Masterwork items up to fourth rank.
- Ingolith: Less common and you can upgrade items to Rank 8.
- Neathiron: It in this material that one gets to have the top Masterwork, which is Rank 12.
Pit runs also reward players with high tier loot, including Masterwork, like Item Power 925 Legendary items. Every fall in The Pit will have maximum item level as foes start at the level 100. Also, the last monster of more complicated Pit runs can drop Stygian Stones which in turn can summon Uber versions of the end bosses of Diablo 4.
