Erebban

Erebban is a game mode in Diablo Immortal. It was introduced in the Nightmare Manifest update.

Lore

Erebban is a castle located in the Burning Hells. It is inhabited by demons.^[1]

Gameplay

The event can be entered from Westmarch via a portal next to Rayek. The difficulty must be Hell II or higher.

The portal leads to a map that is a variation of the map used for Purge the Depths. The player must enter the front door and then open as many chests as possible in a limited amount of time. Opening enough chests increases the time limit, but also the Danger Level, which causes stronger and stronger monsters to spawn. A large chest spawns once 40 chests are collected. Once the time expires or the large chest is opened, another countdown starts during which the player must return to the starting location and exit through the portal. During the escape, the Avatar of Terror as well as quickly spawning monsters try to hunt the player down. Furthermore all previously open doors become closed and must be opened again. Successfully escaping results in victory, awarding an Abyssal Essence.

Normal Gems can be obtained from Erebban depending on the score. The maximum is 4 pairs of gems for reaching danger level 8. A player can obtain a maximum of 63 bound and 63 unbound Normal Gems per week from Hidden Lairs, Abyssal Verge and Erebban.

The difficulty depending on the number of party members is as follows:

History

Originally, escaping required clicking on a confirmation window that appeared when clicking on the portal. This was removed in the June 26, 2024 update, such that only the portal needs to be clicked. In the same update, the spawn point was moved closer to the castle entrance and the damage of the Avatar of Terror was reduced.

After the July 10, 2024 update, Legendary Items are no longer lost after a defeat.

In the July 24, 2024 update, Monstrous Essence drops were added to chests.

The Normal Gem rewards were added in the August 7, 2024 update. At the same time, a guaranteed Abyssal Essence drop was added for escaping at danger level 5 or higher.

Originally, the difficulty scaled at the same rate as the number of players, so a 4-player party had 4x difficulty. In the September 11, 2024 update, this was changed such that every additional player only increases the difficulty by 0.6x.
