To maximize your gains from the Lunar Awakening event in Diablo 4, it’s essential to locate Lunar Shrines, which allow you to accumulate Ancestor’s Favor. This guide elucidates their locations and functionality in Season 3.
Where to Find Lunar Shrines in Diablo 4 Lunar Awakening
You can encounter Lunar Shrines across Sanctuary as Grim Favors, distinguished by purple stars on the map, within world events, or as random appearances within dungeons. Exploring the open world map is the most effective approach, as they are clearly marked. While there’s a possibility that a shrine may not be available upon arrival, nearly every Grim Favor shrine has materialized.
Upon locating one of the Lunar Shrines marked on the Sanctuary map, your objective is to purify them. Simply activate the shrine and eliminate any ensuing monsters. During this process, you’ll receive Ancestor’s Favor and a temporary XP boost, with a world event typically nearby upon completion.
Lunar Shrine Locations in Diablo 4:
- Distributed across Sanctuary, denoted by purple stars on the map.
- Located within dungeons.
- Can emerge during local world events.
- Guaranteed to appear in Nightmare Dungeons with Ancestor’s Favor Affix.
Not every world event in Diablo 4 will yield a Lunar Shrine. However, you can check if one is indicated at the center before attempting it. Keep in mind that these shrine events are not displayed on the world map like standard Lunar Shrine Grim Favors; they must be uncovered as you traverse the map.
Dungeons represent your final dependable method for encountering the Lunar Awakening shrines. While standard dungeons and Vaults may have a chance for the event pieces to materialize, obtaining a Nightmare Sigil with an Ancestor’s Favor Affix ensures that the dungeon will be brimming with Lunar Shrines. Hence, focus on acquiring these Sigils if you aim to expedite the event rewards.
If you have yet to explore the rewards, remember to initiate the Lunar Awakening event in Ked Bardu.
