Diablo 3: Trick now brings you the powerful soul fragments very easily

In Season 25 of Diablo 3, the soul shards play an important role. With a trick you can now farm many of them quickly and easily. We’ll show you how it works here.

What is it about? The soul shards are the big seasonal theme of Season 25 in Diablo 3. You can base them in helmets or weapons. With the resource “Sparks of the Hellforge” you can upgrade each of the splinters three times and thus unleash their true powers. But here, too, chance plays an important role in how the splinters are rolled. So it’s important to farm lots of shards to get the most powerful combination.

Diablo expert Raxxanterax shared a guide with the community that makes farming the splinters really easy. The current “Eclipse in Tristram” event is used for this.

Farm infinite shards of souls in “Darkness in Tristram”

Why does it work The basis of the trick is the “Darkness in Tristram” event, which brings you visual and playful nostalgia. In act 1 you will find a portal that brings you back to the “old” Diablo. With old graphics and controls (optional) as well as old bosses. You can all find them in a multi-story dungeon.

Bosses in it drop the splinters reliably and if you walk a certain path, you quickly have many splinters together.

The event will run until February 1, 2022. So you still have a lot of time to use the trick and make farming easier. We are including the video of Raxxanterax here and show you the written declaration underneath.

You have to do that:

• Start a seasonal game, preferably on Qual 16 (below this the high drops are not guaranteed)
• Pick a strong character who can do well on Torment 16
• Start act 1 and port you to the port point “The old ruins”
• Run down and enter the portal to “Tristram”
• Once there you walk to the northeast to the entrance of the “Labyrinth” dungeon
• Your targets are the Butcher on Level 2 and Leoric on Level 3
• The butcher always hides on level 2 in a room with two door entrances
• Find this room and kill the butcher in it, he should drop all 7 soul splinters for you – in the next picture we show you the room and the loot

• After killing the butcher, look for the entrance to level 3
• Enter level 3 and head northwest, there you should find the entrance to Leoric
• Kill the Skeleton King – Now you should be rewarded with all seven soul shards again

What’s next? Now you can teleport into the city and recycle the splinters that you don’t need at the blacksmith. This will provide you with precious stones.

Afterwards you can leave the game and start again on T16 and start the run all over again. You can earn around 14 soul shards in less than 5 minutes.

You can repeat this method over and over and earn your gems and soul shards.

You can also use the event to secure two cool pets:

The opportunity to farm these two companions is new every year. This always works if the event is active with the old tristram.

Those who have already earned the crown calf and the mini butcher cannot farm them again. Will you use the trick to farm a lot of soul shards now or have you already had enough of everything and don’t need it anymore?
