Not starting with Challenge Rift is seriously a huge gimp.Īside from this, EACH CLASS HAS A WAY TO ABUSE THE GIVEN DEATHS BREATHS AND BLOOD SHARDS. Why? Challenge Rifts give you a titanic headstart on resources: Gold, Shards, Deaths Breaths, Crafting and Bounty materials… Like, seriously it’s THAT GOOD. No matter what method you choose down the line, massacre, nephs, or a mix of both (the last options is my choice btw) – there is one universal truth: The optimal start to anyone’s leveling process is COMPLETING THE WEEK’S CHALLENGE RIFT. If you’re leveling up, open these pages alongside this one: Leveling: Barb | Crus | DH | Monk | Necro | WD | Wiz The optimal start: CHALLENGE RIFT The point of this guide is to help inform you about the various paths, tips, and methods of leveling in D3 so you can eventually tailor your own way through. Put these together and massacre becomes an obvious path for leveling up. TLDR: S28 = Massacre leveling is “best”, Node A = Double Massacre EXP and duration. I’ll be pasting this reminder in all leveling related content. People forget that massacre sucks for items, and without the cache you’ll be weak at 70. Saving is a no-brainer for those getting boosted, or giga-grinders for Week 1. You DONT have to wait to completely unlock your Altar of Rites. If you’re getting boosted? save the cache is your best bet – you simply don’t need the EXP and power boost to leveling.

Saving the cache vastly slows your leveling speed (in comparison), but you still get the huge bonus from Node A. Also, there couple notes on Node C there, specifically how to get Node C with or without the cache. Basically, this hinges around “ Opening your first Challenge Rift Cache”, and if you want to take it ASAP. Also, Node C is “no item level requirement”…įirst of all, see our Altar of Rites guide / order to get a clearer picture of what I’m talking about. S28 is the ‘Season of Massacre Leveling’ due to Node A in Alter of Rites: “Double massacre exp bonus and duration”.Įvery other method is made worse by this.

S28’s Altar of Rites VASTLY affects leveling

PLEASE BE ADVISED – This guide is meant to be usedĪlongside the class leveling guides. This guide assumes mostly you’re a seasonal character, though I suppose it doesn’t matter if you’re on non-seasonal too. So without further ado here’s a rundown of tips tricks and basic knowledge about the D3 leveling process.

While many wait for powerlevels, some suckers like me actually enjoy the process every now and then. There’s a lot of options when leveling up from scratch in D3 every season.
