The Flickerstep boots are a pair of unique boots in Diablo 4 offering a powerful and versatile ability, in which they reduce the cooldown of a player's Ultimate ability when evading through enemies, up to a maximum of 10 seconds. This excellent pair of unique boots was introduced in Diablo 4's Season 2: The Season of Blood. As a unique item that can be used on any class, it is one of the most desired elements in Diablo 4.

Let us deep dive further into how to acquire the Flickerstep boots as well as what's special about them.

How to Get the Flickerstep Boots in Diablo 4

If you are looking to get your hands on the Flickerstep boots, you must first get your character to a minimum of World Tier 3. This is because unique Diablo 4 items, such as Flickerstep, only drop on higher tier worlds, such as World Tier 3 and World Tier 4.

However, there are a few different ways that players can boost their chances in finding the Flickerstep boots. These are:

1)Bosses that drop Flickerstep

Echo of Duriel and Echo of Andariel, both Uber Bosses in Diablo 4, can potentially drop the Flickerstep boots.

To summon Echo of Duriel, you must go inside the Gaping Crevasse dungeon, located south of Gea Kul in Kehjistan. Once inside the Gaping Crevasse, you will find a summoning altar that requires you to give Mucus-Slick Egg and Shard of Agony to initiate the ritual for summoning Duriel.

To summon Echo of Andariel, you must head inside the Hanged Man's Hall dungeon, located east of Tarsarak Waypoint in Kehjistan. Use the Sandscorched Shackles and the Pincushioned Dolls on the Altar of Anguish inside the Hanged Man's Hall to initiate the ritual for summoning Echo of Andariel.

As of Season 6, both Duriel and Andariel have a chance to drop Mythic Uniques as they both are now a Tormented version by default.

2)Kill drop from random enemies and chests

Unique items can be obtained by killing enemies and opening chests in the open world.

To increase your chances of acquiring Flickerstep, take part in World Events like Gathering Legions, eliminate World Bosses, or run Nightmare Dungeons as these are the best methods for acquiring high-tier loot.

3) Can be acquired from chests in Helltide Events

You can also obtain the Flickerstep from chests found in Helltide Events.

Keep an eye on any active Helltide on the map since they spawn every hour and farm as many Cinders as you need to open chests.

Note that collected Cinders will disappear at the end of the current event, so use as many of them as possible. Additionally, you will lose 50% of your total Cinders if you die during the event.

4) Gamble at the Purveyor of Curiosity

If you are feeling lucky, you can also take your chances at the Purveyor of Curiosity and spend your Murmuring Obols for purchasing gear.

Keep in mind that the rarity of gear you can get will range from Magic to Mythic, so gamble at your own risk. But you can buy a lot of cheap D4 gold to get it, MMOexp can help you.
