Kurast Undercity is a great source of target farming in Diablo IV, whether you are looking to stock up on Runes, Charms, Talismans, Horadric Materials, Gear, or even Mythic Uniques.
Lord of Hatred’s addition of War Plans has allowed players to further enhance the amount of loot rewarded from each Undercity Tribute run. Let’s take a look at the most rewarding nodes.
First, we go through the right side path:
Jade Epiphany: This grants more experience orbs as you go through the Undercity while also increasing Monster Power by +1. Monster Power increases a Monster’s Life, Damage, Experience, and Rewards.
Finely Tuned: This grants Tuning Prisms when completing the Undercity at maximum Attunement, while also providing another +1 to Monster Power.
Pathfinder: This provides us with a portal to the final floor of the Undercity when we reach maximum Attunement, allowing us to finish the run faster. In addition, this grants another +1 to Monster Power.
Initiative: This grants the Initiative buff to the player when they reach the final boss of the Undercity. If the player slays the boss before the buff expires, their Tribute rewards are increased by +2, which can extend beyond the usual +4 from filling the bar, up to a maximum of +6. This is huge for increasing the amount of rewards obtained from the Tribute run.
Next, we go through the left side path:
Endless Swarm: This causes Invasion Portals to appear randomly around you as you run through the Undercity. Killing the enemies that appear from these portals grants attunement, which lets you fill up the bar faster.
Unfortunate Souls: This causes Wisps to be summoned from the Invasion Portals, which attach themselves to you and vanish if you die. Each Wisp you save will grant you extra Crafting Materials at the end of the run
Gutter Filth: This grants a small chance to summon a Portal Prankster each time you activate a Beacon. Portal Pranksters are extremely lucrative Treasure Goblins that grant additional rewards at the end of the run when slain.
All of these combined make each Undercity Tribute run vastly more rewarding. Whether you are farming charms, runes, or gear, the result will be a huge explosion of loot.
