Kurast Infracity in Diablo 4: How to unlock it and get rewards

The Infracity of Kurast is an exciting new feature introduced in Diablo 4 with the Vessel of Hatred expansion. This guide will help you understand how to unlock this feature, its primary gameplay mechanics, and the types of rewards you can earn.

Unlocking the Infracity Activity

To access the Infracity of Kurast, players must first obtain the Vessel of Hatred expansion. Progressing through the campaign will lead you to a priority quest related to this activity, which becomes available once you reach character level 15.

At this point, you will need to talk to Ormus to unlock the District of the Zigurats within the Infracity. This unlocks the first dungeon tied to the quest “The Specter of Travincal,” where your objective is to defeat Alia. After this initial battle, you can engage in this gameplay mode whenever you choose.

Understanding the Infracity Dungeon

The Infracity of Kurast is structured as a time-challenge activity across three distinct dungeon floors (or districts). Here are some important features:

• Every floor is populated with enemies, and a timer is counting down.
• Players can defeat specific monsters and destroy certain structures to gain additional time.
• Monsters and structures that provide extra time are highlighted on the minimap with an orange hourglass icon.
• You can opt to traverse the floors as quickly as possible to reach the boss room.
• At the beginning of each floor, a spiritual aura prevents the timer from decreasing while you’re in it, allowing for rest or route planning.
• Upon entering the boss floor, the timer halts, giving you plenty of time to defeat the boss stress-free.

As you progress through the floors, you can gain harmonization by vanquishing monsters and activating spiritual beacons, which are marked with a blue flame icon.

Utilizing Tributes and Treaties in the Infracity

When you open a portal to the Infracity, you can use tributes and treaties to improve the potential rewards from the activity.

• Tributes dictate the reward enhancements and challenge level of your incursions.
• Treaties allow for further personalization of rewards, but utilizing them requires specific materials.

You can earn tributes and treaties through various activities in Diablo 4, such as nightmare dungeons, hell tides, or by defeating certain bosses.

Rewards from Completing the Infracity

Upon finishing incursions in the Infracity of Kurast and defeating the boss, you can anticipate various rewards, including:

• Experience points
• Gold
• Runes
• Materials
• Legendary items
• Ancestral items
• Items with affixes and passives
• Items with statistical enhancements
• Weapons
• Armor
• Jewelry and amulets

Keep in mind that using tributes during your incursions can help you secure better rewards, while treaties enable you to acquire gear that is more tailored to your current character class.
