Aspects in Diablo 4 are powerful enhancements that give some character classes a specific power boost. Here is where you can find the Aspect of Plunging Darkness, a powerful upgrade for the Necromancer class.

The Necromancer is a death-dealing battle mage in Diablo 4. Since the game has released, people have discovered quite a few ways that the Necromancer can deal vast amounts of damage, and Aspects can increase this even further.

As such, if you are playing Necromancer and are looking to enhance the damage output of your Bone Prison ability, then Aspect of Plunging Darkness is something you’ll want to equip.

This Aspect creates a Blight Pool that deals 50-100% bonus damage while using the Bone Prison ability and is incredibly useful to builds who use Bone skills. Here’s where to find the Legendary Aspect of Plubging Darkness.

Where to find Aspect of Plunging Darkness in Diablo 4

The Aspect of Plunging Darkness can be obtained by following one of the two steps below:

  • Dungeon Method: You will need to complete the dungeon Rimescar Cavern (located in the Fractured Peaks) and then claim the Aspect of Plunging Darkness after defeating the boss and clearing the dungeon.
  • Legendary Gear Methods: You can also extract this power from any items that drop and happen to have it, then imprint the Aspect onto your chosen item through an Occultist in town.

You need to remember that if you obtain the Aspect from the Codex of Power (by completing the dungeon) then you will get it in the lowest possible value. In other words, the bonus that the Aspect provides will be the lowest one if you follow the dungeon method.

However, it is a guaranteed way of obtaining the Aspect as if you follow the Legendary gear route, you may need to spend a lot of time grinding. The chance of this Aspect appearing in a random piece of Legendary gear is rare.

In any case, Aspect of Plunging Darkness can be used on one-handed weapons, two-handed weapons, gloves, amulets, and rings.
