How to get and use Abyssal Scrolls in Diablo 4

An Abyssal Scroll in Diablo 4 is a new consumable item added in the Season of the Infernal Hordes. This item will upgrade your Infernal Hordes Compass to a higher tier when used. An upgraded compass functions the same as a baseline one, but the enemies you fight in the instance it creates will be tougher and the loot will be better.

In Season 5 of Diablo 4, Blizzard has implemented a new game mode, known as the Infernal Hordes. These new types of instances incorporate elements of rogue-like gameplay to make every run different. Infernal Hordes, like Nightmare Dungeons from past seasons, require a farmable key to unlock.

In this guide, we'll explain how to get Abyssal Scrolls in Diablo 4 as well as what to do with them.

To get Diablo 4 Abyssal Scrolls to drop, you'll need to get a couple of prerequisites out of the way. The first thing you'll need to do is level your character and complete the seasonal questline as you do. At the point when you've reached Tier 3 worlds, you'll be able to accept the quest The Eyes of the Enemy. You need to complete this quest and the short chain of quests that follow it.

Once you've completed this Diablo 4 seasonal questline, you will find both Infernal Horde Compass and Abyssal Scroll items. Both items will generally drop from any late or endgame activity, but some are more likely to give it than others.

Below we'll list some of the best methods for farming out Abyssal Scrolls in Diablo 4 Season 5:

• The Pit
• Helltide Chests
• Nightmare Dungeons
• Infernal Hordes
• Whisper Caches

Running any of these content types should have a good chance of dropping Abyssal Scrolls for you. So if you've got a proper endgame build setup, then simply playing the game as normal should be enough to find these.

Once you have both a Diablo 4 Infernal Hordes Compass and an Abyssal Scroll in your inventory, you can interact with the latter. You'll need to judge how strong your build is before doing this, as it will increase the challenge of your Infernal Horde instance if you do.

If your build is strong enough, then it's definitely recommended that you use your scrolls when you can, as they will increase the loot you gain.
