Diablo Immortal Legendary Crests: How To Find & Use

Legendary Crests are important to use for a few activities to get better rewards so let's discuss how to obtain them in Diablo Immortal.

Discovered only days ago within the community, these Diablo Immortal Legendary Crests were not featured in Blizzard’s official gameplay trailers or interviews for the game. Functioning as gameplay modifiers or enhancers, these crests primarily serve as boosters for those seeking an advantage in the in-game economy. Activating these boosters eliminates the need for extensive farming of Set Items and uncovering concealed secrets in Diablo Immortal. This recent revelation has sparked heated debates within the Diablo Immortal community.

Key Takeaways
  • The Crests in Diablo Immortal are used to help in modifying or enhancing the gameplay.
  • There are two kinds of Obtainable crests in Diablo Immortal: Rare Crest and Legendary Crest. 
  • You can find Legendary crests via The in-game store and purchase them with premium currency known as the Eternal Orbs.

What are Legendary Crests

Crests in Diablo Immortal
The Legendary crests can enhance your loot potential in Diablo Immortal.

The crests are items that can increase the drop rate of rare gear like Runes and Legendary Armor Sets. This also means you can farm the Best Gems with ease while these items are enabled. Currently, there are only twokinds of obtainable crests: The Rare Crest and the Legendary Crest.

How to Find Legendary Crests

Here’s my recommended method for obtaining the Legendary crests: While the majority of players opt to purchase them from the in-game item store, these items are highly accessible to Free-to-play users as well.

Players can earn the currency to purchase them from other means by completing other aspects. You can join the special clans like the Shadow Lottery Clan or the Dark Clan for extra gains in Gold. So there is no need to worry as you can acquire them through other methods, which are the following:

  • The in-game store
  • Merchants
  • Battle pass Rewards

I will review these techniques so you can easily learn how to find loads of these Legendary Crests throughout Diablo Immortal. Most of these are conventional ways to find these items, as not every player wants to spend real currency to purchase and use these helpful boosters.

Purchasing Legendary Crests via The In-Game Store

One of the in-game currencies that can be used mainly in the purchasable item store is the eternal orbs

I recommend purchasing legendary crests through the item shop, utilizing the unique premium currency known as the Eternal Orbs.

Unfortunately, these orbs can only be bought by spending real money. It is completely optional since like I said you can buy crests from other vendors and mechanics. I suggest you spend these orbs wisely. Your primary purchase should be the crests since they help farm high-end loot in the late game.

You can buy the orbs directly through their separate amounts in the currency tab of the menu. There is also another option to purchase various bundles. These Bundles not just contain Eternal Orbs but also several types of cosmetics, crests, and gems used to build and customize your character.

How to Buy Legendary Crests from Merchants

Diablo Immortal Crest Vendors
The legendary crests can be bought from a couple of Vendors.

There are two vendors found in the game who sell Legendary crests in exchange for currencies. The following two NPCs are the Hilts Trader and Crest merchant.

Hilts Trader: This is essentially the merchant free-to-play users. You can buy 2 ordinary crests and most importantly, 1 Legendary Crest per month. The Hilts Trader NPC can be located in the northern part of the Westmarch region. You can use the Hilts’ currency to trade and buy things from him.

Sometimes, the Hilts Trader will have random limited-time deals where you can buy even more Crests. So I highly suggest you check back often on what he has in stock for you.

Crest Merchant: The vendor is almost identical to the shop. The crest merchant trades legendary crests but only with eternal orbs purchased from real money. The Crest Merchant can be closely located to the Elder Rift activity in the zone of WestMarch.

The only real difference between the merchant and the Shop menu is that you can sometimes have a chance to buy crests at a lower cost or maybe the rare type crests too.

Receiving Crests from the Battle Pass

Diablo Immortal Battlepass
The in-game battle pass has excellent value in providing great items for progressing in it

In my opinion, the Battle Pass of Diablo Immortal functions similarly to progressive passes of other live service games. Players can unlock the battle pass once they finish the Ashwold Cemetery of the main story.

The battle pass can be leveled by completing certain activities to gain points. There are 99 Tiers in the battle pass, and each tier offers varied rewards, including the legendary crests.

Legendary crests can be obtained from the battle pass both in the free tiers as well as the Empowered Pass. The latter is the paid version of the battle pass and unlocks premium rewards to be accessed. However, should you need Crests immediately and in larger quantity, I recommend you buy them from the Shop.

How to Use Legendary Crests 

Diablo Immortal Elder Rifts
Most players use the legendary crests in raid-like activities called the Elder Rift.

In most MMORPGs, raids stand as your core end-game activities to accomplish. However, I suggest exploring similar activities for players looking to quickly obtain legendary loot.

Challenge Rifts offer increasingly tough levels with high-tier rewards, essential for boosting Combat Ratings in Diablo Immortal. Clearing each level significantly improves loot chances, while higher-quality materials elevate overall Potency in the Diablo Immortal.

Apply Legendary crests to Elder Rifts via the menu to add powerful modifiers, influencing battles in your party’s favor. Using legendary crests during Rift events guarantees a legendary gem drop, a valuable resource for use or sale, making it imperative to use them whenever possible.

The Feedback on Legendary Crests from Players

I consider the legendary crests as a means of micro-transactions from the community of Diablo Immortal, and it is completely your choice to purchase these in-store items.

These items are highly considered in the forbidden territory of ‘Pay-to-Win’ by numerous game fans. Went as far as to hold petitions and outrages against the feature of Blizzard and NetEase. I suggest only using these items as the last option to maximize your character to its highest level.

Go as far as to use them whenever you tackle rifts at the highest base level cap. It will ensure you get legendary loot and materials to easily “Min-Max” your preferred character.
