How to Beat Wandering Death in Diablo 4

Wandering Death Spawn Times

The Diablo 4 Wandering Death does not have a specific spawn time or location. Rather, it’s part of a selection pool along with other World Bosses. Here’s how it works:

• Every six hours, a World Boss will spawn in the game.
• The location varies, but it’s usually in one of the large, circular arenas. These include Fractured Peaks – The Crucible, Scosglen – Caen Adar, Dry Steppes – Saraan Caldera, Kehjistan – Seared Basin, and Hawezar – Fields of Desecration.
• As of the time of this writing, we’ve noticed that the World Boss you’ll fight tends to be random, so there’s no guarantee that you’ll see the Wandering Death at a specific timeframe.
• 30 minutes before the boss appears, an icon will appear over an arena, notifying all players that a World Boss is about to spawn. That means you should see almost a dozen players running to the same location to partake in the activity.
• Once the fight begins, players have 15 minutes to defeat the creature before it disappears.

Wandering Death Abilities

These are the abilities that you need to watch out for when you’re fighting the Diablo 4 Wandering Death World Boss:

• Spectral Circle -Multiple circular outlines will appear on the ground. Move out of the way since these will slow you down and deal damage over time.
• Bone Jail – If Necromancers have the Bone Prison, then the Wandering Death has the Bone Jail. Basically, it will create up to three enclosures in the area. If you’re trapped inside, quickly destroy the walls so you can escape. That’s because a massive blast will engulf that spot after a few seconds.
• Iron Spikes – Black lines will appear on the ground, signifying that multiple serrated spikes will cascade to and fro the boss’ location.
• Negation Beam – This is the Wandering Death’s ultimate spell, where it creates up to three beams of searing energy. When you see the outlines appear from its arms, be ready to move. The boss will rotate, either clockwise or counter-clockwise. You also have to move around as it spins, taking care to stay within the safe spots as you’re circling around it.
