Every endgame boss in Diablo 4 has an upgraded Tormented version you can summon only in World Tier Four. They’re quite similar to their normal counterparts, but Tormented bosses are more challenging to defeatāand the loot’s way better.
Here’s what you need to know about these Tormented Bosses in Diablo 4.
How to summon Tormented bosses in Diablo 4
The six Tormented bosses in Diablo 4 can only be summoned in their respective World Tier Four dungeons. They require the same summoning materials as their normal counterparts, just more of them, as well as one Stygian stone. All Tormented bosses and their locations and summoning materials can be found in the table below.
Tormented boss | Dungeon name and location | Summoning Materials |
---|---|---|
Grigoire, The Galvanic Saint | Hall of the Penitent in the Dry Steppes. | 15 Living Steel One Stygian stone |
Lord Zir | The Darkened Way in the Fractured Peaks. | 27 Exquisite Blood One Stygian stone |
Beast in the Ice | Glacial Fissure in the Fractured Peaks. | 27 Distilled Fear One Stygian stone |
Varshan | Malignant Burrow in Hawezar. | 15 Malignant Hearts One Stygian stone |
Andariel | Hanged Man’s Hall in Kehjistan. | Six Sandscorched Shackles (dropped by Lord Zir in World Tier Four) Six Pincushioned Dolls One Stygian stone |

Diablo 4 Tormented boss difficulty
The Tormented bosses in Diablo 4 are much stronger versions of their normal counterparts, meaning they have higher health pools, and their attacks deal greater damage, mainly because they’re level 200.
This means to beat them, you’ll need to have the best endgame builds, including maxed paragon boards and glyphs. If you’re not sure which build to pick, try guides from WoWhead, Icy Veins, or Maxroll and give them a spin if you’re struggling.
In terms of mechanics, each boss has the same as their normal lookalikes, so you don’t really have to learn anything new. It’s just that their health and damage are significantly buffed, so survivability (and dodging) are key to beating them. And if you’re having trouble, we have the following Diablo 4 boss guides:
Tormented boss loot in Diablo 4
Tormented bosses drop the same loot as normal bosses but you’ll get five times the amount when you beat them. Unlike with the Normal boss loot, you’re guaranteed to get item level 925 gear from Tormented bosses, and you have a 7.5 percent chance of getting Mythic gear from all Tormented bosses.
The best item you’ll get from your very first Tormented boss kill each season is a Resplendent Spark, which you can transmute at an Alchemist to create new Mythic gear. You need four of these to craft a Mythic item. You can also get more Resplendent Sparks by salvaging your unwanted Mythic items, opening the Mother’s Gift Reputation rank 20 cache in season five, or by killing Uber Lilith.
If you’re feeling ready to take on these Tormented bosses in Diablo 4, they’re definitely worthwhile, particularly if you’re target farming or want Mythic uniques.
