You’re finally nearing the end of Act 1. but there are still a couple more quests to do, including Descent in Diablo 4. You’ll head deeper past the Black Lake during the Descent quest and hopefully find Lilith. However, along the way, you will face many puzzles that hinder your progression. However, with your help, you can make it through quickly and efficiently! Keep reading to learn how to complete the Descent quest while you pursue Lilith in Diablo 4.
Completing Descent in Diablo 4
As soon as you begin the quest, your first objective is to pursue Lilith. Starting in Breathless Landing, you will travel through some gnarly-looking, gruesome scenes. However, there will be something out of the ordinary that you’ll encounter in your pursuit. Every so often, you will come across an Echo of Rathma. These Echoes aren’t particularly ghosts of Rathma but Echoes of the past. You can catch on to what happened when Rathma was still alive and speak to someone in this location previously in Descent.
Rathma’s first Echo will say, “You are the last visitor to my Sanctum. Thought you come too late, just as Lilith did before you.” Continuing, you will come across another Echo while you pursue Lilith. This time he will say, “It started in dreams. I saw shattered images of the end of Sanctuary. The scales of a great serpent carried these visions, so I visited him.” Continue the Descent quest from here.
Destroy Tumors of Hatred
After passing Rathma’s second Echo, you will notice that a Tumor of Hatred blocks a doorway in Descent. You must destroy the Tumors of Hatred, blocking the path forward. There are 6 of them together, and you will have to kill them as you come across them to unblock passages to progress forward as you pursue Lilith. After you are down to only 2 Tumors of Hatred, you will encounter another of Rathma’s Echoes. This one says, “The prophecy became my burden. Others knew. Ones that couldn’t understand the nature of such a thing.” After listening to Rathma’s Echo, destroy the last two Tumors of Hatred and head to the waypoint where you must destroy one more Tumor of Hatred before you can complete Descent.
When you arrive at the final Tumor of Hatred and nearly complete Descent, you will see another Echo, though this time, the Echo shows Inarius along with Rathma. Travel into the Serpent’s Passage beyond the Echoes and continue to pursue Lilith. After following the path, you will come across Lilith’s Lament, a boss and an old friend.
