The last beta of Diablo 4 s is this weekend and numerous players are discussing how to make the most effective use of their time in Sanctuary.
What is this beta? From May 12 (9:00 p.m.) to May 14, Diablo 4 will host the last beta with the server slam before the action RPG then approaches the release. Back in March, players had the chance to get a first impression of Diablo 4 in the open beta.
The purpose of the server slam is to test the capacity of the servers and to identify possible problems before the official release.
In addition, Blizzard has analyzed the findings from past beta tests and made some changes to the game. There are even unofficial patch notes before the start of the server slam that show numerous nerfs for all classes.

How do players plan to get the most out of the beta? There are a few threads on Reddit that discuss server slam. Players have very specific tips ready on how to effectively manage their time during the time-limited test.
For example, one post was about how to farm 900 Renown the fastest (via Reddit). One user suggested in this regard: “Strongholds should be on [Level] 20 can be soloed with the right build, complete a few dungeons and side quests. I wouldn’t chase altars in the server slam.”
Another player suggested doing the main quests as well as the blue side quests. That would naturally give the 900 Renown.
Other players aim to defeat the world boss Ashava as quickly as possible in order to receive his reward (via Reddit). However, it should also be ensured that Ashava really dies.
Use the time in the queue wisely: Some users want to spend their time in Sanctuary as effectively as possible by creating their builds outside of the game using theorycraft tools (via Reddit). This can be done, for example, in a possible queue or during a server down, so you don’t spend your valuable time in the game calculating damage values or the like.
Other users on Reddit, on the other hand, believe that they use possible waiting times most effectively if they play the new “The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom” during this time.
A major part of the server slam will also consist of leveling up your character. MeinMMO editor Maik Schneider shows you how to do this as effectively as possible and reach level 20 as quickly as possible:
