New Season Delights in Diablo 4 Season 2 - Mount Sprint Restoration, Bonus Loot from Helltide

Season 2 of Diablo 4 is here and with it comes a whole new set of goodies and Blessings for players to enjoy. Blessings are a valuable resource in the game that can provide significant benefits to players. In Season 2, acquiring these Blessings has been made even more accessible and rewarding. In this blog post, we will dive into the changes made to Blessings and the progression system for acquiring them, as well as introduce the new Blessings players can unlock using Smoldering Ash.

Smoldering Ashes Progression

Smoldering Ashes are essential for unlocking Blessings in Diablo 4. In Season 2, the progression system for acquiring Smoldering Ashes has been adjusted to allow players to gain them at earlier levels. Previously, Smoldering Ashes were distributed throughout the free tiers of the Battle Pass at higher levels. However, in Season 2, players will receive Smoldering Ashes starting from Level 8, allowing them to unlock Blessings earlier in their journey.

New Season Blessings

With Season 2, three new Blessings are introduced for players to unlock using their Smoldering Ashes. Each of these Blessings provides significant advantages throughout the leveling journey and beyond. Let's take a look at what these new Blessings offer:

• Urn of Blood

This Blessing boosts the Hunter's Acclaim earned from Blood Harvest activities. Hunter's Acclaim is a Faction Reputation that players can earn by completing special events, slaying powerful Vampires, and freeing villagers during Blood Harvests. Unlocking this Blessing will grant players access to powerful Seasonal rewards.

• Urn of Helltides

The Urn of Helltides Blessing increases the chance of receiving an extra equipment item from Helltide chests. What's more, the additional item will be of Legendary rarity or better. Helltides are valuable events in the game, and with the addition of the new Endgame Boss Grigoire, The Galvanic Saint, they become even more rewarding. Players will definitely want to take advantage of this Blessing to maximize their loot.

• Urn of Swift Travel

Speed is essential in Diablo 4, and the Urn of Swift Travel Blessing helps players recover their Mount's sprinting ability more quickly. This means that players can traverse the world faster, which is especially beneficial considering the changes made to Helltides, the new Blood Harvest event, and the increased spawn rate of World Bosses. With this Blessing, players can level up faster, gain Renown more quickly, and activate Altars of Lilith and Waypoints with ease.

Returning Season Blessings

In addition to the new Blessings, Season 2 also brings back two Blessings from Season 1:

• Urn of Aggression

This Blessing increases the XP earned from monster kills, allowing players to level up faster by slaying enemies.

• One of Two Options

The second returning Blessing is yet to be confirmed, but it will be one of two options: Urn of Prolonging or Urn of Reclamation. The Urn of Prolonging will boost the duration of all Elixirs, while the Urn of Reclamation will increase the chance of obtaining rare materials from salvage. Both options provide valuable benefits, and players will have to wait for official confirmation to find out which one made it into Season 2.

With the introduction of Season 2 in Diablo 4, players can look forward to unlocking new Blessings and experiencing the thrilling benefits they offer. Whether it's increased rewards, faster leveling, or improved loot, these Blessings will aid players in their journey to greatness.

Conclusion

Season 2 of Diablo 4 brings exciting changes and additions to the Blessings system. With Smoldering Ashes being more accessible and new Blessings offering valuable advantages, players are in for an enhanced gameplay experience and faster leveling. Don't miss out on Season 2's Battle Pass rewards and the opportunity to unlock powerful Blessings that will greatly aid your adventure in the world of Diablo 4.
