HOW TO HELLTIDE LIKE A PRO! - Diablo 4

[@aggsar4411]

One HUGE thing to know when you're a chad and hit tier 4 world at any point while being underleveled (like 65 or before) and tier 4 helltides are mobs at like 75 , well.... you can farm helltide at tier 3, get your 175 cinders then tier up world from kyovashad and horse your way to cash out in tier 4 helltide. That means you can get ancestral high power items from way before lvl70 without having to face 10lvl+ mobs.

[@JCrowe86]

I thought they had already patched this where the cinders didn't carry over, no? I haven't tried it since I just hit T4.

[@ianfitchett2768]

That's very exploit-y lol

[@Tornicute]

@@JCrowe86 still works, can even logout and change the difficulty.

[@nfefx]

Or you could just not be bad and have to exploit a bug to play the game.

[@juliushall8499]

@@nfefxyeah these new kids always wanna find an exploit and glitches and shit

[@supernus8684]

After doing end game content for some time i must say i think the Helltide is the most fun of all the activities. It is like doing a dungeon, but you get to stay outside, plan your own path, do different events, open dopamine chests and fight bosses. There is room for improvement, the events in general could be more diverse and interesting and i would love to see more random bosses like the assassin bug which i found to be a fun fight with many players joining in to defeat the bastard. Also i find the mystery chest deal kinda weak, just make all chests the same reward ratio and mark them on the map, maybe mark events too or make it so that if a event is started by a player a longer range notification will pop up on other players maps so that players will gather at and do the event together. Events could be bigger and more challenging under the assumption that players will do them together. I really hope they will continue to develop the Helltides along with the Nightmare Dungeon system i feel there is a good balance that can be achieved between the two end game activities. The nightmare dungeon could focus more on the solo aspect of the game and the helltide could develop the multiplayer aspect where you team up with random players to do events and defeat bosses.

[@MyChiliIceCream]

Looking for mystery chests is pretty fun.

[@xaby996]

Yep. Put on some music and afk slay with your pals. ❤

[@twinstars8812]

Helltide is pretty much the only thing I do everyday now. 4 chests in 40min, then log out :)

[@Killua607]

I find Nightmare dungeons to be the worst activity... takes long loot is usually much worse than a helltide... and sadly experience for the glyph is low, BUT its the only place to get that glyph experience....

[@Forestdwellr]

So its the opposite of a dungeon:) agreed that they are way more fun that the dungeon rinse and repeat. I dislike the fact that everyone tells you to use a website to find the important thing...seems like something that should be in game. Make it visible but put some nasty packs all around it to make it hard to access and easier to die trying.

[@ionutznecro]

One more thing to add, if you're REALLY lucky, you can sometimes get a Legion event inside a Helltide zone, you can get 200-300 shards in a small window of time, provided you don't die during the event.

[@Secondbanana7]

Love it when this happens

[@kirkenstiensmonster]

Had this happen last night. The tide was almost over, but I was able to get one more chest that spawned in the legion area.

[@MellaniePlays]

I had this and it was a nightmare we could not even get past the first wave…. And only got 1 chest because of the stupid helltide. Everything was so tough and strong.

[@MarkusArkus5]

A random druid invited me to a group mid event during a Helltide and they were pinging all over the map to new events. They told me about the Helltides site and how to use it. It was a shining example of what the MMO experience can be at its best. I was sure to share the site with others in future Helltides too and I am happy that Kripp is also giving it its praise. Definitely group up and spread the word.

[@Archangelmd]

Love Helltides! As a softcore player it adds a sense of threat thats both fun and not too punishing. Having sites that tell you where the mystery chests are have made them even more fun. Now I wish I can find the helm chest when I need it lol.

[@ArnoldMejia]

They should add a filter and speed run this- it brings traffic to a site and can have a content creator person to provide the data. There's a daily change on POE for a dungeon and people run that get the layout and things figured out pretty fast. I need boots lol

[@plsdontbanmeagainyoulibtards]

​@@ArnoldMejiawhat's the point? youre constantly moving to farm more, you can figure out all the chests while farming in no time.

[@jonathanbillingslea1262]

My #1 tip for those who have t4 unlocked but find it difficult (especially helltides), is get ur cinders on t3. Walk to the mystery chests. End game right there and change ur world tier from the character select screen. No need to die on ur way riding from a waypoint to said chest

[@pasta-and-heroin]

i believe that the patch as of today has fixed that exploit edit: nvm i misunderstood

[@lordjunk5847]

yea but changing tiers always resets your waypoints so you still have to travel to them.

[@joboiwonder]

@@lordjunk5847you should spawn back into the helltide.

[@stefangeibla3824]

Still kinda exploity 😬

[@pollopollo3531]

mindblown

[@ImSumWhatMad]

Helltides are by far my favorite end game content. Opening the mystery chests is so satisfying and rewarding, and I love planning my routes. I hope they add more open world events like this for endgame.

[@ambrozewicz3d]

I love Helltides, I think they are the single best feature of Diablo 4. I enjoy the atmosphere, the multiple interesting and rewarding events, chests and teamplay. Didn't know about the Mystery Chests being so rewarding though, thanks Kripp!

[@Atharial]

What teamplay is there?

[@DangOlJesse]

@@Athariali just randomly invite everyone I encounter until I have a full party and we do events until the hell tide is over. Then we go our separate ways.

[@SuperFizzah]

Always feels good when the Legion world event takes place in a helltide zone

[@sushileafbeats]

11:53, you also forgot to mention here the 3rd gatherable which is those tortured soul doodads. If you happen upon ones that are glowing red, they also drop cinders and souls.

[@raymondcai1553]

i hope they add more world events like this - it really is so fun to be able to roam around with your party doing events

[@clarity2115]

for real. so exhausted of farming dungeons, open world is way better

[@Calamity_Jack]

Dude, just want to give big thanks to you for this info! Tonight, I was able to run a circuit and got 3/4 mystery chests before I had to run off to a world event. Between all that I ended up 18 legendaries in under 1 hour! Subbed!

[@Draciele]

Fixing a few things that were slightly wrong: Mobs are always 2 lvls higher than you, not 3. You get a random number of legendaries in mystery chests between 1 and 5. You are not guaranteed 2. Also, you are not guaranteed to get a certain number of ancestrals.

[@ovans]

Thanks for the clarification! Does this apply to T3 & T4 or just T4?

[@Draciele]

@@ovans t3 and t4.

[@bishopnick777]

This helped out a ton man thank you - I had no idea about the 175 chests damn !!!

[@unixtreme]

Kripps fan since the D3 days, I stuck around during early Hearthstone, but I fell off. I'm happy to see the D4 content has done relatively well for him.

[@Cbb3225]

Love Helltides, but sometimes events don't respawn or glitch out just before finishing

[@SuperCatacata]

Classic server issues. My one problem with permanent online games. If the servers are sometimes crap, you can't escape it.

[@myronwilliams3340]

Had an event in helltide glitch and say we didn't finish it twice back to back

[@alexandrezolla4959]

8:13 Quin reference LOL

[@WatchingFromWork6636]

Watched your video, checked that website and there was time in the event left so I went to try it. Clearly didn't get through all your video though because I didn't realize after half the time the chest reset to new ones. I did get the two on the second half and you were right, lootsplosion! Thank you for the quality content!!

[@JohnFWitt]

Thankserino for the quality contenterino

[@michaelcroteau5919]

Quality commenterino.

[@darthartagnan4737]

Helltides to me are so much fun.. I have died a couple times and it sucks and I usually only get 2 chests but those 2 chests will literally get you so much stuff.. totally the best way to gear up.

[@darksaiyan2006]

BTW, not mentioned in the video, but helltides are also a great source of quality elixirs, like the 30% max life one. You can ignore the weak ones that drop from the mystery chests, but pick up the regular ones, they're very good.

[@Schmidteren]

Amazing info, didn't know about this I just opened the chests on the map. This is gonna help greatly.

[@peterpham240]

I didn’t know killing those names elites gave forgotten souls. Literally went from 4-6 souls per run to 35. THANKS KRIPP

[@TickerSymbolYOU]

8:00 the most graceful death in D4

[@highlightshadow]

Perfect summary. There's so many subtle elements to this stuff - found my first mystery chest last night and was impressed at the drops ... still T3 but think i'm gonna try and get through capstone to get into t4 soon

[@michaelpattison9964]

There are a few events that are time limited that being said you don't have to finish the objectives with 30 secs left. The 3 circle event where you kill the mobs in the circle is a good example. You complete 2 of the circles and just fight waves until you have about 15secs left then finish the objective. It's very frustrating when you are doing this and some people just force end the event by completing it. The essence event is also like this. Stop wasting the events. They spawn loads of shards if you use it effectively

[@ninvusoogoar6098]

a lot of stupid people out there for sure.

[@VFRNinja]

Why not just re do the event? It gives good loot too.

[@ChristopherShell]

You can also do the cinder collection in Tier 3, then port to town and switch to Tier 4 to open the chests. Takes time but if you are not strong enough to do Tier 4 it is sometimes worth the risk / reward.

[@DanLizot]

No need to port to town. After getting your 175 and standing next to the chest, "Leave Game" to go back to main menu, switch to wt4 there, re-enter the game and you will popup right next to the chest

[@mojojojo560]

Fricken love juicing helltides with the boys. Great video, liked and subbed!

[@geezusotl4021]

didnt know about the hour thing, huge help krip. was also wondering if you were planning to just make a short vid or something about the new necro build. even if its just like 3 minutes id love to see it in action witrh the ring

A great video as always from the Kripp master! 🥰 Thanks to Rania also for editing these wonderful videos! 🥰

[@snoobae8553]

Last time I did a solo Helltide seriously I got 1201 cinders. 4x mysteries, 3x boots, 2x rings, 1x amulets. It was a good run. :)

Damn 💀

[@pianochad]

Wow, didnt know the mystery chests reset on top of the hour. Really good to know, thanks!

[@AcnAPyX681]

Great tips dude 😊 I might add that clicking on some of the flora yields cinders quite often

[@bd2eazy]

Happy to see that I'm already doing all these things. I agree the psuedo multiplayer in helltides is such a fun aspect for me since I usually run solo

[@SuperCatacata]

I don't see enough people in t4 helltides. I'll maybe run into 3 or 4 people within an entire hour which isn't much.

[@QuadSpades]

This video was gamechanger for me! Thanks for posting it, Kripp!

If you are weak, you can gather cinders on lower difficulty and swap, when it's time to turn in for chests.

[@scottmckenzie3204]

Amazing vid. So informative and straight to the point.

[@paulpearce5204]

Helltides is fun with 3 or more people in a world event, can get pretty hairy with several big elites and minions and a ton of trash coming at you. But the shards drop from the sky and its the fastest way left to put xp on your bar.

[@AnarchyDucky]

Just started tier 3 today so this is extremely useful. Thanks for this

[@JustinReinhart89]

Just want to add, if you are just getting in to world tier 4, and you're struggling, farm cinders on WT3. Then when you have enough, go to Kyovashad, change it to WT4. You will keep your cinders from WT3, so you can just go directly to the chest, hoping you don't die, and get the WT4 loot.

[@Batman-bh6vw]

Even better is finding the chest you want on WT3, logging out and changing to WT4, logging back in and you will be right at the chest with your cinders.

[@Xili84]

I have stopped doing them for loot, cause I'm always too late to the 175 chests. I have even started by scouting in these chest locations first, and I confirm they are there. So I continue farming in the area... Then next time I check on it, it's gone. How do they work? is there a specific amount of players that can open it? Cause I have seen myself and others open it, without it disappearing. Is it a bug? ... There are often times where I am stuck with 500+ and I can't even find/see the cheaper chests... Such a waste of time :s

[@Pocccomaxa]

Fiend rose is for rerolling affixes on legendary sacred/ancestral items.

[@Unitos_]

I wish they were up at all times. I love helltides when I want to casually play.

Helltides are truly terrifying on Hardcore. When that fire rains from fhe sky or that lvl72 boss lurking around. Scroll of escape boys!

[@myronwilliams3340]

Lol I've had one of those fireballs nuke me right as I finished an event and getting enough for a chest my jaw dropped

[@jameshackney5770]

Thanks Kripp! Even after playing the game every day, I still haven't got a character above level 50 so cannot wait to start doing this content :D hopefully before Season 1

[@DangOlJesse]

Just now really sinking my teeth into the endgame. Loving the helltides. Thank you for this. Insanely helpful.

[@dawn1279]

thx Kripp, thats exactly what i needed :)

[@davidburns1721]

Great vid and that site is mega useful :) I did lol at your dying to the meteor storm - i get killed by those more often than the mobs haha

[@momotrees111]

Thanks so much! 😊

[@SlothofShambhala]

Once you max reistances and throw on a few damage tempers, you can just farm Alters for Cinders, Blood Matriarch is the only issue if their isnt any higher levels. I do my chest runs in the last 10 mins so that information was super helpful.

[@solomani-42]

I’m finding helltides and whispering tree dungeon runs to be fine for leveling. I know it’s not the most efficient way to level but I don’t expect to hit a 100 until around season 1. I’m treating the whole treadmill more like WoW than Diablo 2 or 3 with its fast leveling.

[@sephir1623]

leveling+gear and this vid were exactly what I was looking for after finishing the campaign. No numbers needed! nice simple strategy for a filthy casual :)

[@killat5469]

[@matthewabbott3731]

You can also use Mobalytics which puts a timer overlay in your game for helltides, world bosses, and legion events.

[@tech-daddy]

great video, thanks Kripp!

[@roboferretism]

One of the best tips i can share for helltides is you can farm the shards in wt3 and then swap to wt4 to open chests

[@HDSportsHL]

Thank you!

[@DeliciousDevious]

You can but if you are strong enough to just grind in wt4 you should. The enemies are way more clustered and it's just all around better. I used to swap when I couldn't quite solo wt4 content until I did enough to get ancestral gear and a good build.

[@roboferretism]

@cupid1313pr speed is king i can get 3x the shards in wt3 and have way less odds of getting dismounted into an elite pack that might be cancer

[@roboferretism]

@cupid1313pr but yes wt4 is ideal its more to help people progress easier

[@wayner7263]

Since it occurs on the open world, do you need to form a party with your friends to enjoy helltide event together or can you meet up with your friends in the event without having to form a party?

[@Grumblymuff]

Helltides are definitely the most fun content in d4

[@mrmeeseeks3845]

@kripparian what is your necro build? Did you change lots after your bone spear build?

[@bad_brains_horror3613]

My Necro almost did a hell tide yesterday by myself. Always players around for World Boss but just started doing hell tides - just unlocked WTIV. Helpful guide - website just what I needed.

[@xanhamgg]

Great vid. It seems like there are diminishing returns though for the contents of helltide chests.

[@DojoDyo]

been doing helltide wrong then lol

[@scc5920]

Do all of the events if you wanna get lots of cinders. Find and pick up some screaming ores as well. Open all 4 mystery chest.

[@punpun-ya]

thank you for the video 🙏

[@TheCosmicAstro-]

They need to buff the unique drop rate chance from helltide chests. Thats my main gripe. Having done about 3 helltides per day over the past week i havent gotten a single unique which is ridiculous. Maybe some qol. Like actually letting us know what the chest is rather than just saying "protection".

[@mr.gameandteach7197]

A buddy of mine said those chests that cost 175 cinders, once opened by another player, can't be opened again. Is that true?

[@houseofbraxtonwoodworking]

whoa ... what build is this for necro?

[@ghostlightx9005]

Do the chests reset for the next helltide, or do they move around or what? Can I open the same chest multiple times in a single helltide?

[@Navayo1234]

Great guide man, got 5 mythical boxes too thanks to this information.

[@raccoonofmotivation20]

Wait how many mystery chests are there, i swore it was only 1 per hour

[@darksaiyan2006]

It's one per hour per helltide region. Most of the time 2 regions get helltide at a time, but sometimes you get 3, at which point, if you're lucky and the helltide starts at :30, you can potentially get 6 chests in one run.

[@Metalhead8489]

Do you get uniques from helltide chests?

[@gamerairways]

Thank you for the vid and sharing the website, I was looking for a tool like this! Definitely will be hitting the mystery chests on a more regular basis now

[@kevinbazarek]

mystery chest tldr: the chest moves at the turn of the hour (exactly 4 pm, exactly 7pm etc) so example; if you are farming at 3:51 am the chest is always going to move once it's 4:00 am

[@montanac223344]

Helltides are my favorite endgame activity. It's a nice mix of good loot and risk vs reward since dying is costly

[@ponciano84]

I have my own routine when helltide comes and I generally like to pin the weapon cache and on the way there whatever mobs I encounter including events I do them so killing two birds with one stone, I usually go for light weapons, then heavy then amulet gear and rings, sometimes I get lucky I run into "mysterious cache" and it gave me a one handed and two handed weapon sacred legendary, basically I circle around the area and kill more mobs, it works all the time for me and Helltide is fun

[@ionutznecro]

Been doing this for more than a week now, only got a 6 chest run once in Khejistan helltides, imo that's the best helltides spawn location since events are spread in a long line along the 3 zones and you can just tp back to the capital when you're done with the last event up in the north.

[@trueyinyang7941]

does the chest go away when anyone opens it so first come first serve or is it per person

[@sugma-lucious]

Find the area that has the most public events concentrated in the helltide, then just rotate and farm them. You can get enough cinders to get all four 175 cinder chests. You also get obols.

[@musclegeek1991]

4? I only ever find 2. Doesn’t seem like all 4 spawn. Just 2 spawn randomly within the 4 spots.

[@sugma-lucious]

@@musclegeek1991 the only way I've gotten 4 is if the chests "update". Sometimes it doesn't happen, sometimes it happens with 15 mins left but I have gotten 4 before which was very lucrative. The map supplied in the video will show the public event locations.

@@musclegeek1991 That's exactly what happened, he said it in the video : the chests respawn (reset, change location) on the hour. So if helltides start at 1:30 pm you have 30 min to get the 2 chests, then at 2:00 pm the chets reset and you have another 30 min to get 2 other.

Hey @Kripp when are you going to post a video on your Medeln ring necro build?

[@manfredhoudek2385]

Forgot to mention when you switch over to Tier 3, next to statue is NPC, that allows you to see helltides. The better chests cost 150 and if you die you will lose most of them. And just starting out on either Tier 3 or 4, you are going to die a lot. Stick to smaller chests first. As for great gear for Tier 4. I found out if you do half the statue finding in Tier 4 you pick up just as much gear as you would helltides. Once you get that great ancestral weapon, do helltides and you can start surving enough to open that 150 chest. Be warned 150 chests will open only 2-3 Times before disappearing.

[@alexanderericson8628]

That was the most fun part for me in the game when I just joined a new world. I struggled outside Kyovashad until I got an ancestral staff drop

[@cpt.tryhard6554]

what if a global boss event starts inside the helltide, is it worth getting the cinders, or is that less efficient?

Do your cinders expire or can you hold onto then for the next one

They are expire when event ends
