Exquisite Blood is needed to farm one of the major bosses in Diablo 4 Season of Blood. Here's where to find some and how to use them.

Season of Blooded added a bunch of new bosses to Diablo 4, and that includes Zir, the vampire overlord behind the entire season's conflict. Players will get to fight him at the end of the storyline, and they can fight him again in the Torment world tiers should they choose to do so.

Farming Lord Zir can be quite the lucrative activity in Diablo 4, though players are going to need a healthy stock of Exquisite Blood if they want to fight vampire over and over again. Here's how to get some and what to do with them.

Updated on March 26, 2024 by Marc Santos: Even though Season of Blood is over, players can still fight Lord Zir for a shot at getting Unique items like the Necromancer's Lidless Wall. As such, farming for Exquisite Blood still remains as relevant as it was in Season 2. However, nothing much has changed when it comes to acquiring this unique resource, and many of the frustrations players have had with it before still persists. This guide has been expounded to include the finer details regarding Exquisite Blood farming to help newer players temper their expectations.

How to Get Exquisite Blood in Diablo 4

Exquisite Blood is a relatively rare resource that only drops from world bosses and Legion events. Considering how the bosses only spawn after three hours of each other, completing Legion events is going to be the faster option between the two, as at least one of these spawns every 30 minutes somewhere in Sanctuary. Both world bosses and Legion events will be marked on the map, and the game will give players a heads-up when a boss is about to spawn.

Anyone who's actively farming for Exquisite Blood should try to get as many Legion events done as possible. Don't count world bosses out completely, however, since players can get up to three vials of Exquisite Blood after every successful fight. As an added cherry on top, there's more loot to be had after beating a world boss, including a chance at getting some exclusive mounts.

Due to the time-gated nature of its sources, Exquisite Blood farming is going to be painfully slow. Luckily, players can trade for these items. Your best bet in finding willing buyers is to enable Trade Chat. To do this, go to the Social tab in the Options menu, then ticking the box that says Trade Chat. This channel connects you with other players who are actively looking to sell their stuff. Alternatively, try joining Discord servers, checking forums, or visiting dedicated trading websites for Diablo 4.

How to Summon Lord Zir

The farmable version of Lord Zir is exclusive to World Tier IV, and he can be found only in The Darkened Way, a dungeon in the southeastern part of the Fractured Peaks. If the Darkened Way is locked, then you may have to finish the current season's main quest in order to enter the dungeon.

Players need a total of nine Exquisite Blood in order to summon Lord Zir. He can be called upon at the end of The Darkened Way at The Ancient's Seat boss lair. Place the nine Exquisite Blood vials at the Bloodied Altar to begin the fight.

The Torment-difficulty Zir boss fight includes four phases in total, and players will have to deal with a ton of fire damage, blood puddles, and the rest of the vampire lord's sinister abilities. He'll also summon Bloodseekers to help him out, so be ready to fight those guys as well. Make sure to have high resistance to Fire and Shadow to maximize survivability.
