A new kind of power is sweeping through *Diablo 4*, one that will resonate deeply with fans of fantasy realms like *Harry Potter* and *Agatha All Along*. But diving into the world of covens and mastering the arcane arts is no simple feat. Here's your guide to uncovering all the Forgotten Altar locations in *Diablo 4*.
How To Find All the Forgotten Altar Locations in Diablo 4
The Season of Witchcraft introduces an enthralling Questline that lets you harness the mystical Witchcraft Powers. These powers are divided into three captivating categories: Eldritch, Psyche, and Growth & Decay, each exploring distinct realms of occult magic. To unlock these abilities, you must earn the favor of The Coven by accumulating Restless Rot through completing various missions.
As you progress, you'll have the opportunity to enhance structures near the Tree of Whispers known as Altars. While many *Diablo 4* players will focus on the primary Altars, there's a hidden gem in the form of Forgotten Altars. These elusive spots grant access to the potent Lost Powers, which can significantly boost your gameplay. However, locating a Forgotten Altar is no easy task.
Unlike the main Altars, which have fixed locations, Forgotten Altars appear randomly within dungeons across Sanctuary. This means you might need to spend some time grinding, but the season's Questline will often lead you into these dungeons, potentially minimizing extra effort. Rest assured, the hunt is well worth it; the Lost Powers are among the most powerful abilities available in the game.
