If you crave maximizing your characters, finding the Diablo 4 Altar of Lilith statues are the ultimate scavenger hunt, especially to buff your seasonal characters. Each one rewards some Diablo 4 renown and passes out a small glut of stat bonuses for every one of your future characters on the same realm. Unlike most of the rest of your progress, this is perfect for carrying over to each new character when it's time for a new season.
Diablo 4 Sorcerer build: Element-ary
Diablo 4 Barbarian build: Stay buffed
Diablo 4 Rogue build: Need for bleed
Diablo 4 Druid build: Air and weres
Diablo 4 Necromancer build: Stay undead
Fortunately for the search ahead, every Altar of Lilith is found in the overworld, so you won't have to crawl every dungeon in search of them. But the downside is: these statues aren't placed on the map until after you've found and unlocked them already. While some of them are stuck alongside the edges of main paths, other ones are more tricky to spot in spite of their ominous red glow. You'll find Altars of Lilith sticking out of snow drifts, hidden behind cliffs, peeking out from the cemetery, and countless other clever little spots designed to hide them from prying eyes.
Below, we lay out Altar of Lilith locations for every area in Sanctuary for those looking to run down all the statues quickly, and offer hints to help you hunt down some of the trickier ones out there.
Diablo 4 Altars of Lilith: How they work
Altars of Lilith provide permanent stats boosts to all your future characters on the Eternal realm (separate from seasonal characters) and can only be earned once. Every Altar of Lilith will reward 10 area renown, regular experience for your character, and one of the following stat boosts:
- +2 Strength
- +2 Dexterity
- +2 Intelligence
- +2 Willpower
- +5 Murmuring Obols capacity
- +1 Paragon Point
The Altar of Lilith locations are broken up by area and you'll find maps for each below. The statues are numbered, giving you a rough idea of the route to take to claim each one without going too far out of your way. For the most part, heading to the marked location makes it easy enough to locate the Lilith statue holding a glowing red ball. You just need to interact with it to unlock the stat bonuses and the icon on your map.
There are a select few that aren't as obvious, though, as some are tucked away in hidden corners or obscured by trees or other environmental objects. Additionally, some are even locked behind strongholds, which you'll need to complete to access the area that they reside in.
