A thrilling new power surge is electrifying Diablo 4, channeling familiar magic for fans of fantasy series like Harry Potter and Agatha All Along. Embracing this coven-based power, however, isn't a simple spell. This guide reveals all Forgotten Altar locations in Diablo 4.
How To Find All Forgotten Altar Locations in Diablo 4
The Season of the Maelstrom introduces a captivating questline unlocking potent Witchcraft Powers. These powers are categorized into three distinct branches: Eldritch, Psyche, and Growth & Decay, each focusing on unique occult magic. Mastering these abilities requires gaining favor with The Coven, earned by completing missions and accumulating Restless Rot.
Sufficient progress allows you to upgrade structures near the Tree of Whispers—the Altars. While most players focus on the main Altars, a rarer breed exists, unlocking a different kind of potent magic. Forgotten Altars bestow Lost Powers, significantly enhancing your gameplay. However, finding these elusive Altars is far from straightforward.
Unlike the consistently located main Altars, Forgotten Altars randomly appear within Sanctuary's dungeons. This necessitates some exploration, but given the season's questline already directs you to dungeons, additional effort might be minimal. The rewards, however, are well worth the hunt, as Lost Powers are among the game's most formidable abilities.
