How to Unlock Jalal‘s Vigil in Diablo 4

Diablo 4 offers endless demon-slaying adventures for loot-hungry heroes. One challenging dungeon players can unlock is Jalal‘s Vigil, containing valuable rewards. This in-depth guide will walk you through unlocking Jalal‘s Vigil and conquering the enemies within.

Overview of Jalal and His Significance

Jalal was one of the original Horadrim mages tasked by the Archangel Tyrael with imprisoning the Prime Evils centuries ago. He and his allies succeeded in capturing the demons and locking them within the Soulstones.

Tragically, Jalal was killed in battle with Baal‘s minions in the area now known as Scosglen. Jalal‘s Vigil serves as a memorial and a test for heroes willing to face its dangers.

Unlocking the dungeon requires learning more about Jalal‘s history and participating in the age-old struggle against the forces of Hell.

Step-by-Step Guide to Unlocking Jalal‘s Vigil

Follow these steps to unlock access to Jalal‘s Vigil:

  1. Progress through the main story quests in Act 1 until you receive "The Knife Twists Again: Stemming the Flow."

  2. Track down and defeat the demon Gorgotha in the Overlook Road region.

  3. Report back to Captain Rohzin in Ashcroft to complete the quest.

  4. Travel northeast to the waypoint in Fiorban‘s Carse.

  5. From there, head north to locate the dungeon entrance in Scosglen.

  6. Enter Jalal‘s Vigil to begin the dungeon!

Tips for Completing "The Knife Twists Again"

  • Recommended Level: 18+
  • Gear Up with fire resistance for Gorgotha‘s attacks
  • Stack damage to quickly finish off Gorgotha before adds overwhelm you
  • Kite Gorgotha away from minions to better control the fight

Conquering Jalal‘s Vigil Dungeon

Once inside, you‘ll need to battle through throngs of undead and use skills to deal with elite enemies. Here are some tips:

  • Area Damage skills excel against groups of skeletons and wraiths.
  • High single-target DPS helps take down elite enemies rapidly.
  • Mobility is key to dodging projectiles and kiting dangerous foes.

At the end, you‘ll face the boss Ugarda the Fierce. She utilizes fire attacks along with summoning explosive minions.

Ugarda Boss Fight Tips

  • Fire Resistance greatly reduces her damage output.
  • Focus fire minions before they reach you and detonate.
  • Save mobility skills like Vault or Teleport to escape her channeled fire blast.
Enemy Health Resistances Damage Types
Skeleton Low Physical Physical
Wraith Low Shadow Shadow
Elite Enforcer High Physical Physical
Ugarda Boss Fire Fire

Once Ugarda falls, open the chest to claim your mighty reward!

Bladedancer‘s Aspect Legendary Reward

This amulet empowers your attacks after using movement abilities. Based on distance traveled, your weapons orbit around you dealing up to 200% of your skill‘s damage.

"Twisting Blades orbit for a short time after they return to you, dealing XX% of Twisting Blades‘ return damage per hit. Based on the distance the blades returned, the orbit damage increases up to YY% of the return damage."

The further you teleport or leap, the greater the damage bonus. This synergizes extremely well with movement-focused builds.

Additional Loot in Jalal‘s Vigil

While Bladedancer‘s Aspect is the highlight, Jalal‘s Vigil can drop other useful items including:

  • Lost Horadrim Sigils – Currency for Legendary gear
  • Horadrim Orders – Currency for Set Items
  • Crafting Materials – Useful for Blacksmithing
  • Legendary Weapons and Armor – Random drops from bosses

With countless monsters to slay and loot to find, the realm of Sanctuary provides endless adventures for those brave enough to seek them out!
