Uncover the Secrets of Diablo 4's Forgotten Altars and Lost Powers

The Season of the Maelstrom introduces Witchcraft Powers in Diablo 4, a new magic system reminiscent of familiar fantasy series. Mastering these powers requires dedication, including locating the elusive Forgotten Altars. This guide details their location and the potent Lost Powers they unlock.

Unlocking Witchcraft Powers

To harness Witchcraft, players must gain favor with The Coven. This involves completing quests and earning Restless Rot. Progress unlocks Altar upgrades near the Tree of Whispers. While main Altars are readily accessible, Forgotten Altars offer unique Lost Powers, but their locations are randomized.

The Challenge of Finding Forgotten Altars

Unlike the fixed locations of main Altars, Forgotten Altars randomly appear within Sanctuary's dungeons. This necessitates exploration and dungeon grinding. However, the Season's questline frequently leads players into dungeons, potentially minimizing extra effort. The reward – powerful Lost Powers – makes the search worthwhile.
