Looking to uncover secret areas in Diablo 4? You're not alone. Scattered throughout Kehjistan are surprising locations, some hidden in plain sight. These areas, whether they offer a blast from the past or present isolated Strongholds, bring a welcome change of pace from farming and battling.
Three Diablo 3 References You Might Have Missed
The first hidden area is the ghost town that appeared in Diablo 3. Even after the Sanctuary's collapse, remnants of Lilith and her cultists remain, subtly influencing the open world.
To discover this blast from the past, teleport to the Gea Kul waypoint and exit through the north gate. Follow the path to the Lost City of Gea Kul, then head west. Look for a large statue emitting a purple aura. This marks the starting point for the secret area.
Next, there's a secret room in Gea Kul now known as the Crumbling Vault, transformed into a dungeon in Diablo 4. At the end awaits a reward chest, a pleasant addition, wouldn't you agree?
Lastly, the Road to Alcarnus has become the Alcarnus Trail, a Stronghold awaiting liberation. In the same room where you once battled Maghda in Diablo 3, you'll now face the final boss of this stronghold, a delightful callback.
Three Diablo 3 References in Kehjistan
Kehjistan boasts numerous Diablo 3 references. Among them are the Twisted Hollow dungeons and the Ferals' Den. You can also explore the Moordaine Lodge Stronghold, which offers substantial rewards upon completion.
To reach the Moordaine Lodge Stronghold, travel north of Tirmair and navigate the Verdant forest. Eventually, you'll arrive at the Tree Grove, granting a significant combat buff along with a unique music track.
Another intriguing Stronghold is Hope's Light, located in the town of Zarbinzet and featuring a lighthouse. Ascend to the top, maneuvering through islands and shipwrecks while encountering formidable Elites.
In addition to the combat buffs provided by the Tree Grove, you can access the Flooded Depths dungeon in this area. Furthermore, there's a secret room in the region of Hawezar—a sacrificial or summoning chamber, judging by its design.
To access this secret room, embark on the quest 'To Walk A Dark Path.' Navigate through an underground fortress until you reach the room. This same chamber is showcased in Diablo 4's cinematic cutscenes, where Lilith is summoned.
Of note, Symon's corpse rests atop one of the pillars in the summoning chamber—a chilling reminder of the story's past and a must-visit for any loyal Diablo player.
These are just a few of the many secret areas awaiting discovery in Diablo 4. With references to the series scattered across Kehjistan, these areas are well worth exploring. Uncover hidden rooms, break the monotony, and test your knowledge of the Diablo series. Packed with surprises and rewards, these secret areas are a must-visit for any adventurer in Diablo 4.
