Realmwalker events are the featured activity forDiablo 4: Season of Hatred Rising. They are fairly lengthy encounters that will have players blowing up hordes of demons in Sanctuary as well as other mysterious realms, in hopes of scoring as much shiny loot as possible.

This seasonal event works a little differently compared to the previous ones. You’ll likely run into a couple of them while doing thelongDiablo 4: Vessel of Hatredcampaign, and if you want to know more about how Realmwalker events work, here’s all the important information about them.

How To Complete Realmwalker Events In Diablo 4

A Realmwalker is basically a portal with legs. It’s a giant demon that constantly summons other demons to it. You’ll know that a Realmwalker is about to wake upwhen you see a circular symbol on the map. Once you see one pop up, head to the area and prepare for carnage.

Realmwalkers should appear on your map as a circular icon flanked by little spires. You’ll know a Realmwaker is in an area if there’s a green demon icon over a region. Speak with Crusader Damond in Zarbinzet and complete the Creeping Hatred quest if you may’t find any of these events.

The Realmwalker itself has a large, boss-style health bar,but you won’t be able to deal any direct damage to it yet. Instead, you need todefeat the demons that spawn from it.Strong AOE builds like Whirlwind Barbarian orCentipede Spiritborn inDiablo 4will make this fight a breeze.

This entire event all boils down toyou and other players killing everything that moves. Small demons, Elites, pillars, portals — smash everything with a health bar, and eventually, the Realmwalker will die as well. After all that trouble, nothing will drop from the giant monster, but that’s alright because you’re not done yet.
