Diablo 4 Fast 1-100 Strategy Leveling For the Race To Hardcore

How to progress quickly to the endgame and hit 100 level in Hardcore? The YouTuber wudijo already defeated Ashava with only his Rogue in hardcore mode in the first beta phase, sharing his plan for the Race to Hardcore World First in Diablo 4. From his video, we get the most efficient strategy and some useful tips:

  • You just try to rush your campaign on Adventurer mode

  • Then you unlock Nightmare difficulty by doing the Capstone dungeon as early as possible something like level 40 or level 45. 

  • If you are strong enough and your progression doesn't slow down too much by going to the higher difficulty,  try to just as early as possible to get the Sacred items and to get your 100% increased XP

  • Then you just start grinding through Nightmare difficulty, slowly doing easy stuff while you're under-leveled for example the strongholds, the side quests, and finishing a Renown.

  • Between like 40 to 75 levels or so, it's like the time to do the full renowned grind, starting with Renown one may be doing the campaign already, and then we're now in two and three to get to the next skill points while you're doing Nightmare, and then Renown 4 and 5 in all of the regions

  • Then we can unlock Torment difficulty here, maybe early again if you feel strong enough something like 65+ level or so would probably be the time to get the Ancestral items and even more loot, and finish up whatever is left for you now.

  • Then you start with the infinite Nightmare dungeon grind to reach 100 level!

This could be the best strategy to go about the whole progression from 1 level to 100 level in Hardcore mode if you play a season enough as a solo player. So if you intend to play enough to get to level 100, if you intend to play enough to actually min max a character, this is going to be the way to go even software etc.
