Mar-20-2024 PST
With the addition of five new endgame bosses in Diablo 4 during season 2, players are presented with challenging encounters that test their elemental resistances and offer exclusive rewards such as Uniques and Uber Uniques. While these bosses have now become permanent fixtures in the game since season 3, mastering their battles remains a fulfilling aspect of gameplay.

Each of the endgame bosses - Echo of Varshan, Grigoire the Galvanic Saint, the Beast in Ice, Lord Zir the Dark Master, and Zuriel the King of Maggots - necessitate specific conditions for their summoning. Notably, these bosses are also accessible in the Eternal Realm, providing the opportunity for engagement outside the seasonal context.

Outlined below are the details on summoning each endgame boss in Diablo 4, accompanied by insights into the required procedures and the lucrative rewards offered upon their defeat.

Summoning Echo of Varshan

Echo of Varshan is enounterable at both World Tier 3 and World Tier 4, each tier requiring distinct summoning prerequisites.

For World Tier 3, players must procure Malignant Body Parts from Grotesque Debtors found within Whisper Caches. Obtaining Whisper Caches involves offering 10 Grim Favors to the Tree of Whispers. To confront Echo of Varshan at World Tier 4, players will additionally need a Malignant Heart as a requirement to initiate the battle.

Summoning Grigoire, the Galvanic Saint

Grigoire can be confronted at World Tier 3 and World Tier 4, with a primary elemental affiliation to Lightning. To prepare for this encounter, players are advised to enhance their Lightning resistance by either stocking up on Lightning resistance Elixirs or embedding Topazes into their gear.

Securing Living Steel from Tortured Offerings in Helltides is indispensable to summon Grigoire. Accessible at World Tier 3, Helltides is identifiable by a red marker displayed with a sword enclosed by flames.

Summoning the Beast in Ice

Exclusive to World Tier 4, the Beast in Ice aligns with the element of Ice, underscoring the importance of fortifying Ice resistance prior to confronting the boss. Employing the Glacial Fissure Nightmare Sigil alongside fire-based strategies can exploit the boss's vulnerability to fire attacks.

Summoning The Beast in Ice mandates the collection of Distilled Fear, obtainable through Tier 30 or higher Nightmare Dungeons. Subsequently, approaching any Occultist enables the crafting of a Glacial Fissure Nightmare Sigil for the climactic showdown against the Beast in Ice.

Summoning Lord Zir (The Dark Master)

Lord Zir, also identified as The Dark Master, awaits challengers at World Tier 4.

Confronting Lord Zir necessitates obtaining Exquisite Blood in multiples from Legion Events and World Bosses. These events are distinguishable on the map by a large red circle marking Legion Events and a timer indicator appearing on the right-hand side of the screen in the proximity of a World Boss.
