Diablo Immortal: Beginner’s Tips and Tricks

Classes
There are 6 main classes in Diablo Immortal at the time of writing this guide. It can be quite difficult to choose which one you want to use since all of them looks cool. However, some of the classes are difficult to use while others are extremely beginner friendly. Here are all the classes in Diablo Immortal:
- Barbarian: Tanky bruisers that have good AoE damage to deal with a group of enemies. They are the best class for new players.
- Crusader: This class can use magic alongside dealing good AoE damage thanks to their strong melee power.
- Demon Hunter: Nimble fighters that use arrows and prefer to attack from a distance. They are ideal at dealing with single target mobs.
- Monk: Fast-paced characters that excel in going in and out of combat. They are strong at melee combat; although, not as tanky as the Barbarian or even the Crusader.
- Necromancer: They are great at summoning companions that will do all the hard work for you. After summoning your minions, you can sit back and let them do all the world while you get all the credit.
- Wizard: If you are used to playing RPG games, you’ll know that the Wizard is the spellcaster of the group. You can use various spells while keeping your distance from the enemy and deal tons of damage.
Regardless of the class that you choose, you will have to level up that character and learn their abilities and skills. Depending on your playstyle, you might prefer some other class while your friend might prefer another. So, make sure that you check out our in-depth class guide for new players. It will help you pick the ideal class for yourself.
Another thing to keep in mind is that you can always change your class after you start the game. So, don’t worry about being stuck with a character the whole time.
Gameplay Mechanics
Diablo veterans will be familiar with the gameplay mechanics of this game. However, if you are a new player, you will find the game to be quite difficult and different than normal RPGs. Worry not because we will explain the main aspects to you so that you can understand the game better.
Skills
These are the most important part of any class. You will constantly use your skills to deal damage to enemies and take out bosses in raids. However, using your skills effectively is the major difference between a good player and a new one.
As you level up, newer skills will unlock while the previously unlocked ones will grow stronger. If you like a skill, you’ll build your entire strategy around it. However, I suggest that you give the new skills a chance and make your build according to that. Once you have unlocked the majority of skills, you can start choosing the ones that you find best and then make a build around them. Otherwise, you might miss out on some great skills if you don’t give them a chance.
Equipment
Equipment plays a heavy role in Diablo Immortal. The main purpose of raiding dungeons is to defeat strong bosses and collect high-tier loot. Every item has a score that shows you if it is better or not. Plus, there are rarities as well. The rarer the item, the harder it will be to find.
These items enhance your stats and allow you to perform better, deal more damage, and have higher HP as well. Depending on what build you want to go for, you should equip those items. However, keep in mind that you can change your equipment whenever you want so make sure to equip the ones that you need according to the situation.
Plus, you can easily scrap any unwanted gear so that you gain scrap materials. In typical dungeon crawling fashion, you will get dozens of multiple items that will be of no use to you. The easy solution is to go to the Blacksmith in the hub area and scrap it.
Builds Can Be Adjusted on the Go
Just like skills, the builds in Diablo Immortal are extremely flexible and can be adjusted on the go. So, don’t get fixated on just one build because you can change it to anything you like or what your team needs in that specific raid. I have seen many new players perform well early game but then they get destroyed by bosses because they did not update their build or change it according to the situation.
Keep An Eye on Your Health
When you are in the middle of the action, it is easy to forget how much HP you have. This is especially true if you are playing tanky classes such as the Barbarian or the Crusader. Make sure that you always keep an eye on your HP bar so that you know when you back off.
The best part is that you can collect the health orbs that are scattered throughout the map. You can collect these orbs without any cooldown and they will allow you to gain HP. If you are low on HP, make sure that you back away from the action and collect the HP orbs.
Complete Side Quests
If you want to level up quickly, completing side quests is the best way. They are not only fun but also provide tons of XP which can help you unlock more skills and become powerful. Plus, some of the side quests have great stories so you’ll have a good time going on these side quests. It can be easy to only do the main quest but make sure that you work on some side quests as well to have a better experience.
On top of that, exploring side quests will reward you with rare loot. These quests refresh daily so make sure that you complete them whenever they are available.
That is everything you need to know about Diablo Immortal. Hopefully, this guide helped you get started with the game and made it a bit easier for you.
