There are a lot of new mechanics at play in Diablo 4's Season 6, titled Hatred Rising, and the Vessel of Hatred DLC. One of the main mechanics of the new Season is the Zakarum Remnants faction, which you can earn Reputation with by completing Seasonal objectives.

A new item added to Diablo 4 is the Seething Opal. This relatively rare consumable item is tied to Seasonal progression and grant a higher chance to get specific items and materials. To get more Seething Opals, Diablo 4 players have three options, one of which is to simply participate in the Hatred Rising event.

Seething Opals are a new consumable item added with the Diablo 4 Season 6: Hatred Rising. In this season, which coincides with the release of the Diablo 4 DLC Vessel of Hatred, players are tasked with chasing down wandering Realmwalkers until they finish their path and, upon defeat, create a portal to the Seething Realm.

During Hatred Rising events, monsters and bosses (including the Realmwalker and Seething Realm boss) will reward Zakarum Reputation. But if you take one of the new Diablo 4 Seething Opals, you will earn Zakarum Remnants rep when you kill any enemy, whether you are in a Hatred Rising event or not.

There are five different versions of the Seething Opal consumable: Gold, Equipment, Materials, Socketables, and Torment. Each Seething Opal effect will grant a 15% boost to XP and grant Zakarum Remnants reputation for kills.

Each of the five Opals gives all enemies killed a chance to drop items of the Opal's type, except for the Seething Opal of Torment. The Seething Opal of Torent will grant all enemies killed a chance to drop Artificier's Stones, boss summoning materials, and even Infernal Compasses.

How To Get Angelbreath in Diablo 4: Vessel of Hatred

Angelbreath is a rare resource players will need to make elixirs and upgrade their healing potion in Diablo 4; here's where to find some.

If you are farming Zakarum Rep for the Season 6 rewards, or just farming XP and materials from repeatable endgame content like The Pit or Nightmare Dungeons, ensure you have a Seething Opal effect active. Every Seething Opal lasts for just 30 minutes, so be sure to pack in as much monster-slaying as you can within the time for max chances at rewards.

How To Get Seething Opals in Diablo 4

To get more Seething Opals, Diablo 4 players have three options.

  • Participate in the Hatred Rising event and complete the Seething Realm dungeon for a chance to get Seething Opals from enemies and bosses
  • Progress your Zakarum Remnants reputation to get Seething Opals from caches
  • Progress the Season Journey to get Seething Opals from Season Journey caches from each of the seven Chapters

The best way to get Seething Opals in Diablo 4 is to participate in the Hatred Rising event. You are guaranteed to get some Seething Opals by completing the Seething Realm dungeon at the end of the Realmwalker's path, and the event is practically always active. Within a few minutes of the last event ending, a new Realmwalker will appear somewhere in Sanctuary, repeating the process with practically no breaks.

The second most reliable way to get more Seething Opals is to progress the Zakarum Remnants reputation – check in with the Zakarum Remnants faction vendor just north of the Waypoint in Zarbinzet to see how far you are along. Every new Rank with the Zakarum Remnants rewards a Cache which will always contain some Seething Opals.

The last way Diablo 4 players can get Seething Opals is by completing objectives in the Season Journey. In the Season 6 Season Journey, Diablo 4 offers a variety of Caches containing materials, equipment, and other items when you complete each chapter. Check your Season Journey progression from the main menu (the tab on the far left) and make sure to tick off Objectives to get more Seething Opals faster.
