Diablo 4 Season 7 Fast 1-60 Leveling Guide
Season 7 of Diablo 4, titled Season of Witchcraft, launches on January 21st and introduces an exciting new chapter in Sanctuary’s ongoing saga. This season revolves around the Tree of Whispers, which has suffered an attack, leaving its stolen heads scattered throughout the world. Players will work alongside the witches of Howar to investigate the mystery, retrieve the fugitive heads, and harness new Witchcraft Powers. With features like reimagined Whispers, unique head rotten enemies, new legendaries and Uniques, an Armory system for build management, and a fresh storyline, this season offers plenty for returning players and newcomers alike. If you’re ready to dive in, our Diablo 4 Season 7 Leveling Guide will help you progress efficiently from level 1 to 60 while making the most of what this season has to offer. Let’s get started!
Preparation and Starting Out
Start on Hard Mode
Begin the game in Hard difficulty for optimal XP and rewards. Create a Seasonal Character, and immediately head to the Wardrobe to equip your pet, which automatically picks up gold and materials. Bonus tip: Pet the kitty or doggy for a fun superstition—better loot!
Grab Your Mercenary (Expansion Only)
If you own the expansion, travel to the Den in Nahantu to recruit your Mercenary. This companion levels up with you and offers access to a Legendary Aspect via Bartering. Later, you can unlock a second Mercenary for additional support.
Early Progression (Levels 1-15)
Start the Seasonal Questline
Progress the Season 7 Questline to unlock your first Journey Rewards and begin earning Witch Power. Along the way, loot a herb to craft a Level 10 Precision Elixir at the Alchemist for an XP boost. Alternatively, complete the "Raising Spirits" side quest in Kyovashad to gather herbs for crafting.
Dive into Witchtides
Witchtides, the new seasonal activity, are zones with high monster density, rewarding XP, loot, and seasonal progression. Coordinate with other players for maximum efficiency:
- Use Discord (e.g., LFG-Witchtide-Hard channel) or in-game communities to group up.
- Stay in the same instance and stick together to trigger extra monster spawns by interacting with roots.
Class Quest Auto-Completion
At level 15 (or 25 for some classes), your Class Quest will be automatically completed if you’ve finished it in a previous season. Don’t forget to activate your bonus, such as enchantments for Sorcerers or extra perks for Necromancers.
Mid-Game Progression (Levels 15-50)
Continue Witchtides
Witchtides remain your primary leveling activity. During downtime (e.g., between zone resets), consider:
- Salvaging gear and optimizing your loadout.
- Running 1-2 dungeons to acquire useful Aspects, such as Juggernaut or others tailored to your build.
Strongholds at Level 50
Once you hit level 50, clear all Strongholds in Normal Mode. The XP rewards are the same as higher difficulties, so it’s faster and easier. These also unlock waypoints and provide a massive XP boost.
Optional: If you have the expansion, consider running Kurast Undercity for excellent XP and loot between strongholds. This dungeon offers cooldown shrines that speed up ability cycles.
Reaching Level 60
Mix Witchtides and Helltides
Alternate between Witchtides and Helltides as you approach Level 60. Both activities offer solid XP and rewards, but Witchtides are generally more efficient due to monster density.
Transition to Penitent Difficulty
At Level 60, switch to Penitent Difficulty (Torment 1 equivalent). Upgrade and imprint your gear, and start equipping Runes for additional power.
Nightmare Dungeons
Run 2-3 Nightmare Dungeons to improve your gear and unlock your first Glyphs. Slot these into your Paragon Board for early power boosts.
Reaching the Endgame
Pit Runs to Unlock Torments
Complete Pit Dungeons up to Pit T20 to unlock all higher Torment levels. These provide access to better loot and tougher content.
Farm Tormented Bosses for Uniques
Use the new Party Finder or team up with friends to take down Tormented Bosses. These encounters drop powerful Uniques and other valuable loot to optimize your build.
Final Steps
Continue pushing through Pit dungeons and farming Nightmare Dungeons to refine your character. Once you’ve unlocked all Torment levels, you’re ready to focus on endgame builds and Paragon progression.
Additional Tips and Notes for Fast Leveling in Diablo 4 Season 7
Witch Powers: The new seasonal mechanic, Witch Powers, offers strong leveling benefits. Focus on earning these early by engaging in Witchtides. Some of these powers scale well into the endgame, providing additional damage or utility.
Class-Specific Recommendations: For example, Sorcerers benefit significantly from unlocking their second enchantment slot at level 15, while Barbarians can acquire Aspects like Ancestral Force for smoother leveling.
Efficient Paragon Progression: While reaching Paragon 300 can take 100-150 hours, most builds perform well with just 200-250 points. Focus on unlocking the five Paragon Boards that best suit your playstyle.
