Diablo 4 has taken the dungeon delving, boss fighting activities we all love and added an MMO element. This has opened up opportunities for group content, which the development team took full advantage of to add World Bosses.
Not only are these World Bosses one of the few ways to get important, rare crafting resources, but they are also a ton of fun to fight. This guide will show you where to find World Bosses in your playthrough, so grab all your friends and buckle in.
Every Diablo 4 World Boss
As of the game's launch, Diablo 4 has three World Bosses. Blizzard has been very vocal about wanting to add more in future updates, so stay tuned.
- Ashava
- Advarice
- The Wandering Death
Each boss can spawn in any available World Boss Arena based on a hidden spawn timer.
World Boss Arena Locations
There are five regions in Diablo 4 that serve as World Boss Arenas. These show up as smaller areas inside a larger region, similar to Strongholds. Currently, each region in the game has one World Boss Arena per region.

How To Beat A World Boss
World Bosses are incredibly powerful enemies that require a team of players to defeat. As with a normal boss fight, the boss has phases indicated by arrows on its health bar. It also has a stagger bar underneath the health for players to track. Each boss has its own associated mechanics and damage type. Best practices are to come wearing gear with resistances to the damage type of the boss, as well as chugging the relevant elixir.
If you are wondering why you haven't seen World Bosses spawning as you play, it may be because you haven't yet finished the campaign. New players will remain blissfully unaware when a world boss spawns, while players in the end-game will be notified of a World Boss and will see it on the map.
Rewards For Beating A World Boss
Along with a host of gold, experience points, and super rare gear, defeating a World Boss will drop a Scattered Prism. Scattered Prisms are used to add sockets to gear and are a highly valuable late game resource.
