In Diablo IV, you expect to face down a sea of monsters. However, the game brings something new to the table: Strongholds. As mentioned first in Blizzard’s blog post, Strongholds are areas where Hell minions have claimed. So, if you want to help the area, you’ll clear these regions. We’ll help you discover all of the Diablo IV Stronghold Locations in Fractured Peaks as well as what rewards await you.
All Fractured Peaks Stronghold Locations in Diablo IV
There is plenty to explore within the open world of Diablo IV. In the beta version, you get to roam around Fractured Peaks. Of course, there are far more areas you’ll discover once the full game releases. For now, it’s all about enjoying this region. One of the things you want to head toward is a Stronghold.
Strongholds are newly added to Diablo IV, and Fractured Peaks features a handful of locations for you to head toward. Within these Strongholds, you’ll face down plenty of Burning Hell’s minions. So, if you want to take them head-on, be sure to go there prepared. They may even be a level or so higher than you. You can attack Strongholds in a group or solo it if you feel as though you’re ready.
Fractured Peaks includes 3 Strongholds. Each Stronghold will have its own events, individual storylines, quests, rewards, etc. However, this will only happen once you clear the area of all those monsters.
When a Stronghold location is cleared in Diablo IV, that area in Fractured Peaks will see new human NPCs return. This will lead to new side quests and events showing up. Additionally, there may even be a secret dungeon to uncover now that the land is free of monsters.
