To get Indira's Memory Unique pants, take part in world events like Gathering Legions, fight world bosses, or finish Nightmare Dungeons, as these are the best ways for acquiring high-tier loot in D4.

Build to create around Indira's Memory Unique pants

Blood Wave and Blood Lance are the key skills to build around using Indira’s Memory in D4. In my experience, there are a few ways this build can go.

Blood Surge gear requirements (Image via Blizzard Entertainment)

Blood Surge - The Blood Surge Necromancer build, also known as the “Bloodmancer,” gives you a sturdy and high-damage-dealing character to start your adventures in Diablo 4. This build is entirely built around the Blood Surge skill, which is great skill to clear large packs of enemies as well as deal major damage to singular targets.

This build needs two unique items: Indira’s Memory and Cruor’s Embrace. Furthermore, enemies should be cursed by Decrepify to lower their damage dealt thanks to Cursed Aura Aspect. Even though the build doesn't require Indira's memory to function, having this item equipped turns your ‍Bone Spear into a Blood Skill and grants access to one of the biggest multipliers of ‍Tides of Blood, turning it into a Blood Spear.

Overall, the Blood Surge Necromancer Build is a fantastic build for clearing hordes of enemies with ease.

Blood Lance gear requirements (Image via Blizzard Entertainment)

Blood Lance - Indira’s Memory Unique pants can also be paired up with Mutilator Plate Unique Chest Armor (deals additional damage to enemies inflicted with Blood skills).

This build is based around the Blood Lance skill, giving the player a resilient and high-damage-dealing character. This skill is crucial for dealing heavy damage to single targets, making it a great choice for bossing in Diablo 4. With this build, it's best not to focus on minions, which will force enemies to get scattered; rather, let them get close to you and deal massive damage to them at once.

Diablo 4: Season of Witchcraft (Season 7) brings a lot of new updates for the players, most importantly the new gear that arrived with this new season. Overall, Indira’s Memory Unique Pants ends up making the already formidable necromancer into a more powerful class to play with.
