Facts About KehjistanThe Cellars of Kehjistan
The Diablo franchise has continually enhanced its setting and storyline, and the latest game installment now offers players a vast open world to delve into. Diablo 4 presents numerous brutal attractions amidst the devastated landscapes of Sanctuary, including dungeons, PvP zones, and Cellars.
Cellars are compact "mini-dungeons" that showcase elite foes and occasionally present special missions, puzzles, or rare bosses. These can be discovered throughout the expansive realm of Diablo 4, including within the southern region of Kehjistan – a zone typically encountered towards the end of players' journeys.
Facts About Kehjistan
Kehjistan, located in the southern region of Sanctuary, is one of two provinces on the map. Unlike its neighboring province, Hawezar, which is largely covered in jungle and swamp, Kehjistan is characterized by vast deserts with scattered dunes. While it lacks major cities, Kehjistan boasts several smaller settlements equipped with waypoints and Healers. Among these, the coastal city of Gae Kul stands out as the largest settlement in the area.
Kehjistan's environment is marked by scorching temperatures, arid conditions, and sandy dunes. As a result, it is home to various hostile creatures such as scorpions, snakes, and other insects. In addition to these natural adversaries, Kehjistan also harbors a mixture of bandits, demons, and followers of Lilith who pose threats to the human inhabitants of the region.
The Cellars of Kehjistan
: Essential Potions for Exploring this AreaWhen embarking on adventures in this particular region, it is crucial to have effective elixirs at hand. The top choices for combating the enemies here, who often summon infernal creatures, are the potions of Demon and Man-Slaying. These elixirs prove especially useful as most of the adversaries encountered are humans with the ability to summon hellish spawn. In addition, a significant runner-up in terms of importance is the elixir of Poison Resistance, which serves as a strong defense against insects, bugs, and various mutants found in this area. Rest assured, with these handy potions, you will be well-prepared to face the challenges that lie ahead.
Scattered throughout the deserts, cliffsides, and ruins of Kehjistan, there are a total of 27 cellars. Due to the geographical layout of the region, locating and accessing a few of these cellars may prove to be quite challenging. To successfully explore these hidden treasures, one must be prepared to thoroughly search the barren desert and navigate through obstacles such as fallen marble columns, sometimes by leaping over them or by crouching to pass underneath.
Amber Sands
Zone Perks for Tree of Whispers Aligned PlayersFor those dedicated players who have successfully completed the main quest storyline and have chosen to align themselves with the mighty Tree of Whispers, there are countless opportunities awaiting in this zone. With the added benefit of ever-changing events, it is crucial to keep a watchful eye on the map as it will consistently pinpoint key locations such as Cellars and other areas where valuable Grim Favors can be collected.
