In Season 7 of Diablo 4, in addition to the three mainstream gameplay styles we’re familiar with (such as the different schools of mages, barbarians, druids, and other professions), the game has added a brand new set of systems – “Lost Abilities”.This system is mainly designed to provide players with more varied combat options and also encourages you to try out different skill combinations.If you like to try new ways to play or want to make your character stronger, then this is a system you can’t afford to miss.
Let’s take a closer look at the specific effects of the “Lost Abilities” in Season 7 and how they can be combined to maximize their power.
1. Breath of the Sorcerer’s Guild
Basic effect:
When you use certain magic-based skills (such as Evil, Spiritual Wisdom, Growth and Decay) to deal damage or control an enemy, your attack speed increases by X% for 10 seconds.
Each different magical effect stacks with a separate attack speed bonus once.
High level bonus (Rank 8):
If you have “Evil”, “Spiritual Wisdom”, and “Growth and Decay” on your body at the same time, you have a higher chance of triggering a Lucky Event, making it easier for your skills to take effect.
Simple to understand:
This ability is for players who frequently use multiple magic skills.You can keep your attack speed high all the time by quickly switching between different magic spells.And if you can have three different magic effects at the same time, you can further increase the efficiency of skill triggering.
2. Evil Spell Specialization
Basic Effect:
Enhances the damage effect of your “Evil Spell” skills, making them more powerful.
Higher Level Bonus (Level 10): ** If you inflict an “Evil Spell” on an enemy, you will be able to use it.
If you cast an “Evil Spell” on an enemy, you deal an additional 10% bludgeoning damage to those enemies.
Simple to understand:
This is an ability designed specifically for players who like to use the “Evil Spell” style of play.Not only does it increase the damage of the spell itself, but it also increases the rate of critical hits, allowing you to deal with a group of enemies with high output.
3. Aura Specialization
Basic Effect:
Expands the range of your “Aura” skills, allowing more enemies to be affected by the effect.
Higher Level Bonus (Level 10):
Enemies within the area of influence of your Aura will take an additional 50% damage when hit by a bludgeon.
Simple to understand:
If you like to use your Aura to control your enemies or assist your teammates, this ability is for you.Not only does it allow you to affect more enemies with your Aura, but it also allows your teammates to hit those enemies more quickly.
4: Piranha Hurricane
Basic Effect:
Piranha Hurricane“ is triggered when an enemy is affected by both ”Evil Spell“ and ”Aura”.
This hurricane will deal physical damage to surrounding enemies for 12 seconds, and will pull enemies together, making it easier for you to focus your fire.Can only be triggered once every 20 seconds.
Higher Level Bonus (Rank 5):
This hurricane will automatically run after nearby enemies, allowing it to hit more targets and control the field better.
Simple to understand:
This is a very useful group control + output skill.As long as you can get an enemy hit by both Evil Spell and Aura, you can trigger this Hurricane to help you clear monsters faster and also limit the enemy’s movement.
How best to combine these abilities?
- Combination Suggestion 1: Breath of the Sorcerer’s Guild + Evil Spell Specialization + Aura Specialization
These three abilities can work well together.Breath of the Sorcerer’s Guild makes your attacks faster, Evil Spell Specialization boosts your blitz rate, and Aura Specialization expands your area of influence and increases your blitz damage.With a set like this, your overall output and monster clearing ability will increase dramatically.
- Combination Suggestion 2: Evil Spell + Aura + Piranha Hurricane
If you want to fight groups of monsters, then you should definitely try this combo.First use Evil Mantra and Aura to control the enemy, then trigger Piranha Hurricane, which can both pull monsters and deal damage, especially suitable for brushing copies or challenging bosses.
- Suggestions for equipment selection:
- Choose more skills that can quickly trigger multiple magic effects.
- Try to match equipment with high blitz rate, so that you can better utilize the blitz bonus brought by Evil Spell and Aura.
Summary:
The new “Lost Abilities” system in Season 7 gives us more tactical options and skill combinations.Whether you’re fighting bosses or clearing monsters, you can make your character stronger by combining these abilities wisely.
If you are a novice player, you can start trying out the simplest combinations, such as practicing the combination of Evil Spell and Aura first, and then slowly adding other abilities.If you already have some experience, then you can try to develop your own unique genre and experience a different fighting style.
In short, “Lost Abilities” are not just a few random skills, but an important system that can really change your fighting style.The most important thing is to try more and more to find the most suitable way to play!
