In Diablo 4, you can level up your world levels for better rewards and more experience. But you have to pay for this, and this price is to fight terrible enemies. Don’t worry, as you level up you’ll get better gear that will allow you to better deal with them. So, without further ado, here are 5 difficulty settings in Diablo 4 and how to change them.
How to level up the world in Diablo 4
You can increase your world level by using world level statues. One of them is in Kövashad, but you can also find it in other major cities. Apart from this, you can also start directly from World Tier 2: Veteran when creating your character. Initially, you only get two difficulty options, but by choosing veteran mode, you can unlock the next world level. Finally, you can also change your world level on the character select screen by clicking the “Change World Level”button on the right.
