A Diablo 4 player has created a map for others to use that shows a path to collect all Altars of Lilith in a single run. The collectible Altars of Lilith are a key aspect of progression in Diablo 4. Not only do they provide stat bonuses, but also move players forward in each area's Renown track. They're a pain to find, which makes guides to find each Altar of Lilith invaluable. This might be the first Altar of Lilith map, however, to show how Diablo 4 players can collect them in one long session.
Altars of Lilith, as their name would imply, are simple statues that are spread throughout Diablo 4's setting of Sanctuary in hard-to-find corners. When found, players can click on them to claim them, earning a permanent stat bonus or similar reward. Each individual statue doesn't reward much, perhaps a +2 to Strength or Dexterity, but over time they add up to a significant buff. There are 160 total Altars of Lilith to find in Diablo 4. That's ultimately +68 Dexterity, Intelligence, Strength, and Willpower, 4 Paragon Points, and an increase of +100 Murmuring Obal Capacity.
The map itself is very intuitive. There's a green circle in the Fractured Peaks town of Nostra denoting where the path begins and a red circle in the Dry Steppes area of Kotama Grasslands marking the path's end. The blue line marks the part of the path players will move constantly forward on, while the pink paths marks sidetracks where players will have to backtrack. Each individual Altar of Lilith is marked by a red icon, which players can mark off in an image editor as they go along.
For Diablo 4 players that want to knock out every Altar of Lilith in one fell swoop, this is a great resource. And that's entirely plausible because the world of Diablo 4 opens as soon as players begin. Some Altars of Lilith are in Stronghold areas or PvP zones, which aren't labeled on the map, but Diablo 4 players should be able to manage those, regardless.
The map isn't perfect, by any means. Waypoints aren't marked on the map and don't appear to be used to speed things up as able, potentially under the assumption that Diablo 4 players using the map won't have Waypoints unlocked. Also, if a Diablo 4 player already has a number of Altars of Lilith unlocked, there's no great way to optimize the path by skipping those.
One last thing that needs to be mentioned is that actually doing this path in Diablo 4 will take a surprisingly long time. It will take hours, so Diablo 4 players will want to either clear their schedules or break the path into smaller sections. Still, most endgame-minded Diablo 4 players will end up collecting the Altars of Lilith in time anyway. Doing it in one efficient run does have its appeal.
Diablo 4 is available now on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
