In Diablo 4 Season 9, Sins of the Horadrim, you will be able to earn various rewards by collecting Horadric Knowledge. This is the new seasonal reputation system that allows you to build up your reputation by exploring the new Horadric Strongrooms inside Nightmare Dungeons. These are mini dungeons filled to the brim with Elites and other large enemies. However, you only get 100 seconds inside these strongrooms, so you’ll need to take down as many foes as you can before the timer runs out.

In this guide, we’ll explore how you can begin earning Horadric Knowledge in Diablo 4 Season 9 and some of the best ways to farm the reputation.

How To Unlock the Horadric Knowledge Board in Diablo 4 Season 9

When you begin playing this season, the Horadric Knowledge Board doesn’t unlock automatically. Instead, you’ll need to meet a few conditions and fulfill parts of the seasonal questline to kick off the reputation system.

  • You need to complete the base game campaign content before you can unlock any of the seasonal content.
  • Use the Seasonal Realm to create a fresh character for Season 9.
  • Talk to Bryona near the waypoint in Cerrigar to start The Embers Yet Smolder quest.
  • As part of this quest, enter and run through the first Horadric Strongroom.

Once that is done, you can head back to Cerrigar at any time to check the seasonal reputation board, known as Horadric Focus. You can track how much progress you’ve made through this board.

You can use the Nightmare Dungeons and the Horadric Strongrooms within them to increase your Horadric Knowledge significantly. While inside Horadric Strongrooms, you will have 100 seconds to complete Horadric Pillar Rituals, which involve defeating waves of enemies. If you are able to complete all of the rituals in time, you get Horadric Attunement, which boosts the rate at which you gain reputation.

While trying to farm Horadric Knowledge, you should understand that the chances of finding Nightmare Dungeons with Horadric Strongrooms will increase with the difficulty, and Torment difficulty has the highest chances. If you are using Nightmare Dungeon Sigils to access the activity, the existence of Horadric Strongrooms within that dungeon becomes guaranteed.

Alternatively, you can perform runs at the Kurast Undercity or Helltides to have some chance of gaining Horadric Knowledge. However, keep in mind that your probability of reputation gain through these activities is considerably lower than through Horadric Strongrooms.
