Diablo 4 Season 7: Witch Powers List and Guide

Season 7 of Diablo 4 brings a vast array of Witch Powers across three schools of magic, plus a hidden fourth school called Lost Powers. Players can select up to six powers, which include five normal powers and one unique power per build. Each school offers its own set of devastating abilities, and they can be upgraded as you progress through the season.

Here's everything you need to know about Witch Powers and how to master them:

Witch Power Schools

Eldritch Magic - Harnesses destructive forces of chaos and energy.

Psyche Magic - Focuses on the mind and spirit, providing defensive and control abilities.

Growth & Decay Magic - Manipulates life and death forces, healing allies or harming enemies.

Lost Powers - A hidden fourth school with unique, powerful abilities that require exploration to uncover.

How to Learn and Upgrade Witch Powers

Learning Powers: Witch Powers are unlocked through three Alters located at the Tree of Whispers. Each school of magic corresponds to one of these Alters:

Eldritch Powers: Learned at the Altar of the Eldritch.

Psyche Powers: Learned at the Altar of the Psyche.

Growth & Decay Powers: Learned at the Altar of Growth.

Lost Powers: These are acquired from Forgotten Altars hidden throughout random dungeons in the Sanctuary. These altars are harder to find, making Lost Powers a rare and exciting aspect of the season.

Upgrading Witch Powers: You can upgrade each Witch Power using a new seasonal currency called Restless Rot. This currency is primarily earned through activities like Headhunts, which are similar to Helltides and spawn in random zones across Sanctuary.

Upgrades: Witch Powers can be upgraded from rank 1 to rank 15, with each rank providing additional effects and power. As the power's rank increases, it becomes more potent, offering new abilities or enhancements to the original power.
