In Diablo 4, Torment Bosses feature larger health pools and higher damage, making them notably more challenging than their normal encounters. Torment Bosses can only be summoned on World Tier 4: Torment and require more of the same summoning materials used to summon their non-Torment versions, as well as Stygian Stone Stygian Stones that drop from The Pit. Torment Bosses drop guaranteed Item Power Level 925 items, and the first Torment Boss kill each season rewards 1 Resplendent Spark Resplendent Spark. In this guide, we will show you everything you need to know about this new Endgame Boss difficulty in Season 4 to help you get a head start when you get into the game.

Leveling up to 100 is recommended before taking on Tormented Echoes solo.
Focus on capping resistances and increasing armor for better survivability.
Tweak your build for optimal damage output and utility skills for boss encounters.
Tormented Boss Drops and Rewards
The most enticing part of Torment Bosses comes from their ability to drop a Resplendent Spark Resplendent Spark that can be used to craft Uber Uniques. The first Torment Boss a player kills each season rewards 1 Spark, and this limit is account-wide.
In addition to their Torment-specific rewards, these Torment Bosses drop the same Uniques and Uber Uniques as their normal Uber Boss versions. As of Season 4, all Ladder Bosses now have an increased chance to drop Uber Uniques, though Duriel and Andariel still have the highest likelihood of dropping Uber Uniques.
