It is reported that in DLC, the following new content has been added to the game, such as a new Campaign with Nahantu as the background, a new Class Spiritborn, etc.
In addition, some old content in Diablo 4 has also been updated, such as Class Necromancer has been carefully redesigned, and Loot available to players in the game has also been strengthened. This makes the player’s experience smoother when the game transitions to DLC.
Although a lot of new news about the game has been released so far, some of them are still worth taking out when the game is about to go online, and emphasizing them again to the majority of players to avoid being missed. It also allows players to better plan their Diablo 4 Gold.
In order to make the game smoother for players in the future, the following is some important information about Vessel of Hatred for players to introduce.
Vessel Of Hatred Trailer
Trailer is obviously one of the earliest and most intuitive ways for you to understand a new game or a new version of an old game.
In Trailer of Vessel of Hatred, the game continues with the overall dark and bloody style of the previous game, unfolding through the experience of a girl named Neyrelle, and showing the main style of the game in three minutes.
Besides main Trailer of the game, the game also launched a Spiritborn Class Reveal Trailer. In this Trailer, you can see the specific situation of Spiritborn and its operation form. Obviously, if you are interested in new Class, this Trailer should not be missed.
Vessel Of Hatred Main Story
Main Story of an RPG game is the most interesting when it is left to the players to explore on their own. However, there is some information in Story that is crucial for players to Pass Levels and Upgrade.
Therefore, if you don’t mind a little spoiler, it is helpful to know main Story before officially playing the game.
1. Nahantu
Story of Diablo 4 DLC is based on new Campaign Background Nahantu. This also reveals some information about Nahantu and its importance.
Nahantu is actually Jungle area at the southern end of D4 World Map. If you have played Diablo 2, you will find that Nahantu is Torajan Jungle in it.
In addition, this location is closely related to new Class Spiritborn. Nahantu is the place where Spiritborn has been recuperating for generations. And Nahantu is also the place where the girl you met in Trailer, Neyrelle, took Main Villain Mephisto.
2. Villain Mephisto
Mephisto, also called as Prime Evils, is one of Main Ultimate Villains of Vessel of Hatred. He and his brother Baal, as well as Diablo, are difficult to kill in the game and have a short resurrection interval. In the game, they are keen on destroying Sanctuaries and carrying out some other terrible sabotage activities.
However, through the content shown in Story and Trailer, it is reasonable to guess that the girl Neyrelle’s behavior of trapping Mephisto in Soul Shard will have a key revelation for players to understand Mechanism of fighting Mephisto in the game.
From the above two details, we can see that Main Story often hides important clues for players to pass Level. Even if you can’t get anything directly by understanding Story, those details will undoubtedly play a big role in the future.
How To Use Mercenaries In Diablo 4 DLC?
Mercenaries are a new game Mechanism in Diablo 4 DLC that can be Unlocked through Main Quest. You can let these NPC Allies join your Campaign to help you fight better.
Before the start of a Single Player Campaign, you can choose an Already Unlocked Mercenary to join you, and then he will use his Skills and Diablo 4 Materials to help you defeat Monsters in battle.
Besides this Unlocked Mercenary, there is another Mode: Mercenary Reinforcement. This Mode means that when you use a specific Skill in battle or are Affected by a specific Effect, Second Mercenary will release Skills to help you. Even though he is not Unlocked.
There are four Mercenaries in total, scattered throughout Nahantu, with their own Quest Lines and features. You can choose according to your specific needs. Here is some relevant information about the four Mercenaries.

As a former Cannibal, Varyana left when her Tribe had dealings with Dark Forces. She has a Massacre Meter, and as Blood on her Blade increases in battle, her Massacre Meter theory will continue to increase.
3. Cursed Child Aldkin
Because of Dark Rituals performed by First Khazra in Citadel on his mother, Aldkin was born a Half-Demon. If you choose him as your Mercenary, he can Metamorphosis to transform into an extremely powerful Demon to help you in battle.
4. Drunken Archer Subo
Subo used to be an unpopular Archer, but now he is a Bounty Hunter. Subo is not a full-time Melee fighter, he uses Volleys of Arrows to help you fight off Monsters.
He can also Mark additional Targets in battle, and if you kill them, you can get some bonus Effects, such as Reducing Cooldown time of Skills.
