Diablo 4 Season 4: Best Nightmare Dungeons to level your Glyphs

Nightmare Dungeons are normal dungeons that become more challenging and rewarding as the game progresses. Nightmare Dungeons become available after you reach World 3. All of these dungeons have extra affixes that are generated at random. This makes the dungeon much more difficult, as it scales by the tier from 1 to 100.

To access Nightmare Dungeons, you first need to craft a Nightmare Sigil. Using one in a dungeon changes it into a Nightmare Dungeon. Although these dungeons can be extremely difficult, they offer a significant boost to gaining experience and a higher chance of looting rare equipment.

In this article, we have tier-listed all the best Nightmare Dungeons in Diablo 4.

What makes Nightmare Dungeon in Diablo 4 good?

Beware of the powered-up enemies (Image via Blizzard Entertainment)

All the Nightmare Dungeons mentioned on the list above are based on their difficulty and spawn chances. All S-tier dungeons have higher chances of spawning rare or even legendary weapons and gear. These dungeons also spawn various high-level enemies that can reward you with high exp points when slayed.

Considered end-game areas, Nightmare Dungeons have a higher enemy density than normal dungeons. So if you haven't leveled high enough or don’t have a proper build, we strongly recommend not to venture into a Nightmare Dungeon, as you could be killed the second you step in.

If you are starting the game after the release of Diablo 4 Season 4, we suggest waiting a while before attempting these dungeons.
