Diablo 4 has a Sigil Crafting feature that must first be unlocked to reap the system’s full benefits. Players will definitely need to be able to whip up Nightmare Sigils, so here’s an in-depth guide on how to do so in Blizzard’s RPG.

The ability to craft Nightmare Sigils is not something you need to be concerned with in the earlier stages of your Diablo 4 journey. However, as you increase your player level, advance through the game’s spiraling narrative, and eventually reach the endgame, you absolutely will.

There will likely come the point where you’ll want to obtain Diablo 4’s Uber Unique items and show them off in the game’s hardest dungeons – the Nightmare Dungeons. But before any of this, you have to know how to craft sigils in Diablo 4, and our guide will show you exactly what you need to do.

To craft Nightmare Sigils in Diablo 4, users need to obtain the specific Priority Quest that, once completed, will give players the ability to craft Sigils at will.

To break this down and make this process easy to follow, check out our detailed walkthrough:

  2. Unlock World Tier 3, and acquire a Nightmare Sigil from ticking off Whispering Tree Bounties, or simply slaying enemies.
  3. After this, you’ll now have to successfully complete a Nightmare Dungeon in World Tier 3.
  4. Once you’ve done this, you’ll obtain a Priority Quest and will need to “Speak with Demyan.”
  5. He will assist you in creating your first Nightmare Sigil, and the ability should now be unlocked!
