What is the pit? The Pit is a new endgame activity that came with Season 4 in Diablo 4. It is a new dungeon that functions roughly like a Greater Rift from Diablo 3:

  • You open a portal and enter random areas with random enemies.
  • Within 15 minutes you have to kill enough monsters to summon a boss.
  • If you manage to do so, you will receive the important crafting materials for the new upgrade system.

    • Where can I find the pit? You open the pit by interacting with the “Artificer Obelisk” in Cerrigar as soon as you have unlocked the activity. Inside the pit you will find numerous monsters that you kill. Then you will reach a final boss via several portals. And the whole thing is timed.

    You find the obelisk in Cerrigar.
    At the obelisk you select the pit level.

    The Pit – Unlocking and Leveling

    How do I unlock the pit? To unlock the activity, you must first complete a quest. You will receive this as soon as you move to World Level 4. The quest requires completing a Nightmare Dungeon of level 46+. After that, you will automatically collect rune shards from various activities, which you will need to open the pit.

    Since patch 1.4.2 in Season 4, your new companion will help you collect mats.

    You will receive the rune shards approximately:

  • from chests in the Helltide
  • as drops from world bosses
  • at Legion events
  • in Nightmare Dungeons
  • through tasks at the Tree of Whispers

    • How many levels does the pit have? According to Blizzard, there are 200 difficulty levels in the pit. The levels of the monsters scale with the level of the pit. At pit level 1, the monsters are level 100, and with each level this increases by 1. At the highest level, you are fighting against monsters at level 299. And they not only have more and more health points, they also deal more and more damage.

    How do I increase the level of the pit? If you successfully complete the pit level, the levels available to you when selecting will increase. If you kill the boss and there is still enough time left, you will unlock additional levels. You will be shown how many levels you have unlocked during your playthrough at the end.

    The Pit – Endgame Activity Flow

    How does the activity work? You open the pit at the “Artificer’s Obelisk” in Cerrigar. There you can select the level of the pit and open it, which “costs” you 3 rune shards. As soon as you go through the portal that opens, the 15-minute timer starts.

  • You run through the first level of the dungeon and chop up monsters until you reach a portal.
  • Through the portal you reach the second level, where you can chop up monsters again.
  • Once you have killed enough monsters, the portal to the “Guardian Hideout” opens.
  • The Guardian Hideout portal takes you to the pit boss.
  • Once you kill him, you have completed the pit and receive mats and obols.

    • In the pit you will find shrines that give you helpful bonuses – such as temporary invulnerability. If your player character dies in the dungeon, time will be deducted from the timer as a punishment:

  • the first death removed 30 seconds
  • the second death removed 60 seconds
  • the third and all subsequent deaths remove 90 seconds

    • In our overview you will find the strongest endgame builds for all classes in Season 4:

    The Pit – Mats for Completion

    What do I get in the pit? In the pit you will receive three different types of crafting materials:

  • Pit level 1–30: Obducite
  • Pit level 31–60: Ingolith
  • Mine level 61–200: Niedereisen

    • The number of drops increases depending on the pit level. For example, you get around 10 Obducite at pit level 1, and at pit level 30 you get 39 Obducite. Pit level 31 gives you 20 Ingolith, and at pit level 61 you get around 20 Low Iron.

    Additionally, Stygian stones can drop in the pit, the chance of this depends on the level of the pit. With patch 1.4.2, the drop chance was increased, and the developers also adapted the pit bosses to the level of the pit. You also get obols at the end of the pit.

    You can enter the pit in groups of up to four players. Note that only the person who opens the pit with rune shards has a chance of getting Stygian stones. In addition, this player also gets the majority of the mats – everyone else gets 50% of the materials.

    What do I need the mats for? You need the mats for masterworking (completion). This is a new crafting system that was also added in Season 4. Completion improves the affixes on your items and every 4 levels there is a “critical” improvement to an affix.

    There are a total of 12 levels of completion for which you need the following mats:

  • Stage 1–4: Obduction
  • Level 5–8: Ingolith
  • Level 9–12: Niedereisen

    • The crafting system has received a huge overhaul with the update for Season 4 in Diablo 4. The two new crafting mechanics allow you to build really strong items and improve them further.
