A staple of the Seasonal content formula inDiablo 4is the Season Blessings system. EachDiablo 4Season allows players to unlock permanent buffs, called Season Blessings, for all characterstaking part in the Seasonal contentto speed up their journey – or at least make it more rewarding.
Season Blessings areuniquely tied to the Battle Passrather than the Season Journey (though the Season Journey does progress the Battle Pass through the Favor system). By progressing throughDiablo 4, Season Blessings are easy to unlock and provide powerful gameplay bonuses, if you know which ones to choose.
Updated June 21, 2025 by Erik Petrovich: Seasonal Blessings are only active during each Diablo 4 Season, and when a Season ends, your Seasonal Blessings disappear along with your Season-specific features as characters get transferred to the Eternal Realm. Each new Season introduces new Seasonal Blessings Diablo 4 players can upgrade to get bonuses for the newest seasonal content. In Season 6, we have five Season Blessings to choose from, each of whichenhances your experience in Season 6content. This guide has been updated to reflect the new Season 6 Diablo 4 Season Blessings, as well as to include some suggestions on the best Season Blessings in D4 for leveling and endgame.
What Are Season Blessings in Diablo 4?
InDiablo 4, Season Blessings are Season-long bonuses that apply to all characters taking part in the new Seasonal content. These bonuses are never available to existing characters on the Eternal Realm, onlyfresh Seasonal characterscan take advantage of these temporary boosts.
These bonuses can be unlocked by earning Smoldering Ashes in the Free Battle Pass. These Ashes can then be spent on gaining Tiers in a choice of Seasonal Blessing bonuses which change with each Season.
InDiablo 4Season Six, Seasonal Blessings can boost five different facets of your characters' gameplay: they can boost XP gained from monster kills, your chance to get double the rewards from gambling at the Purveyor of Mysteries Obol Vendor, the chance to get Legendary Items in Helltides, the rate that you gainReputation with the new Zakarum faction, and your chance to get extra Seething Opals at the end of the Seething Realm Season 6 feature.
Each of these Season Blessings has four unlockable tiers, which improve theeffectiveness of each abilityas more Smoldering Ashes are offered. For example, at Rank 4, the Urn of Spoils grants a 40% chance for double items at the Obol Vendor, which can be invaluable in helping to acquire some of the season’s best gear quickly.
Be sure to prioritize the XP gain and the Zakarum Remnants rewards first, as you will be able to engage in endgame content faster with faster XP gain, and the Zakarum reputation is notoriously difficult to grind. Many of these Seasonal
At endgame, swap some Seasonal Blessings over to the Urn of Curiosities, as the Obol Vendor is one of the best sources for Ancestrals and Uniques in Diablo 4: Vessel of Hatred. If you want to earn some of the most difficult Seasonal Journey rewards, put some points into the Zakarum reputation at endgame too, because it can be very tough to level this Reputation up fast enough to be meaningful at endgame.
The Helltides Chest and extra Opals can be handy, but ultimately these aren’t going to make or break your Seasonal experience. If you complete a few of the Realmwalker events back to back, you will have more than enough Seething Opals to last several hours, so the extra chance isn’t really worth the Seasonal Blessing cost. Helltide Chests already reward tons of items, and other sources in the game are better forgetting Uniques and Ancestrals.
How To Unlock And Equip Diablo 4 Season Blessings
Season Blessings can be seen on the Season 6 home page inDiablo 4after entering the game on a character. Players canfind the Seasonal Blessing menu on the left side of the Season screen, which opens up a menu displaying each of the five Season BlessingsDiablo 4players can pick this Season.
However, if your characteris not at least Level 45, or has not progressed the Seasonal Battle Pass past Rank 8, the Season Blessings screen cannot be utilized. This is because Season Blessings require Smoldering Ashes to unlock, which can only be rewarded to Level 45 players who have progressed to this point of the Battle Pass.
Focus on completing the Season Journey to get more Favor to get more Seasonal Blessings faster.
After reaching Level 45 and getting some Smoldering Ashes from theDiablo 4Battle Pass, open this menu and begin offering Ashes to gain your choice of Seasonal Blessing. As theBattle Pass continues to rank up, players will earn more Smoldering Ashes, and thus be able to increase the power of their Seasonal bonuses gained through this system even more.
Players will earn Smoldering Ashes at the following ranks of the Season 6 Battle Pass:
1x
2x
3x
Tier 88
When a Season comes to a close, Season Blessings will also be removed from characters as they aretransferred to the Eternal Realm. As such, only expect to use these blessings during the duration of Season 6.
