Diablo 4 Foul And Tormented Invoker Of Varshan Guide: How To Get & Use

Diablo 4 Season 1 has arrived, introducing a plethora of new content, including new resources and a formidable boss named Varshan. Defeating this boss grants players access to Invokers of Varshan, but what are these items, and how do you acquire them?

Well, that's where we come in. This guide will explain how to obtain the Foul and Tormented Invokers of Varshan in Diablo 4 Season 1, highlighting their uses in the game. So, let's dive in.

What Are The Invokers of Varshan In Diablo 4 Season 1?

Invokers are seasonal items designed to summon Malignant enemies at specific locations, with a unique Invoker enabling you to summon Varshan.

Varshan the Consumed is initially encountered as part of the main quest in Diablo 4 Season 1 and is eventually defeated by the player. After this victory, you gain access to these Invokers, which let you challenge more powerful versions of Varshan, dubbed Echoes of Varshan.

While these Echoes employ the same move set as Varshan, they are considerably more powerful, and they reward you with a wider array of valuable loot.

Now let's explore how to obtain these Invokers in Diablo 4 and their different forms and delve into their usage and how to confront the Echoes of Varshan.

How To Get The Invokers of Varshan Diablo 4 Season 1

The Invoker of Varshan is not an item you can find; instead, you receive a recipe for it and craft it yourself. After completing the Diablo 4 Season 1 questline, which involves defeating Varshan The Consumed with Cormond, you will be rewarded with the recipe for the Invoker of Varshan.

After obtaining the recipe, locate any of Cormond's Workbenches scattered throughout Sanctuary and proceed to craft it. The recipe for crafting the Invoker of Varshan is as follows:

Invoker of Varshan Recipe

• 1x Brutal Malignant Invoker
• 1x Vicious Malignant Invoker
• 1x Devious Malignant Invoker
• 1x Demon’s Heart
• 1,000 Gold

Remember, the Invoker of Varshan can only be used in World Tier 1 and 2. Avoid progressing to World Tier 3 without utilizing this item.

How To Use Invokers of Varshan In Diablo 4 Season 1

Now that you possess the recipe and have crafted the Invoker of Varshan in Diablo 4, it's time to understand how it works in summoning and defeating the Echoes of Varshan bosses. 

Here's a detailed description:

1. Locate one of the Malignant Tunnels on the map.
2. While clearing the tunnel, watch for a hidden gate secured with a padlock. Note that not all Malignant Tunnels may have such a gate, so you might need to explore different dungeons until you find one.
3. Interact with the Malignant Pustule found in the tunnel. This action will consume your Invoker of Varshan, and the boss will manifest.
4. Engage in combat and defeat the boss to acquire exciting Malignant rewards and loot.

You won't need to scavenge any further to get the Foul and Tormented versions of the Invokers of Varshan in Diablo 4. Instead, you must obtain and craft their recipes, as instructed below.

How To Get & Use The Foul Invoker of Varshan In Diablo 4

To obtain the recipe for the Foul Invoker of Varshan, you must defeat the Echo of Varshan boss using the base Invoker of Varshan in Diablo 4. Once you acquire the recipe, head to one of Cormond’s Workbenches and craft the item using the following components:

• 1x Invoker of Varshan
• 50x Sigil Powder (obtained by clearing Nightmare Dungeons)

The Foul Invoker of Varshan only functions in World Tier 3. Moreover, the process to use it is the same as with the base Invoker. Go to the secret room in the Malignant Tunnel and summon the Foul version of the boss by interacting with the Pustule. Once it is summoned, you can defeat it.

How To Get & Use The Tormented Invoker of Varshan In Diablo 4

To obtain the Tormented Invoker of Varshan recipe, you must defeat Varshan in World Tier 3 as described above. After obtaining the recipe, return to one of Cormond’s Workbenches and craft the Invoker using the following items:

• 1x Invoker of Varshan
• 5x Forgotten Souls
• 5x Fiend Roses (both items obtained through Helltides)

Using the Tormented Invoker in Diablo 4 Season 1 is the same as with other Invokers, but it works exclusively in World Tier 4. Locate the secret room in the Malignant Tunnels and interact with the Malignant Pustule to summon the toughest version of the boss.

Overview

In summary, here's how the Invokers of Varshan in Diablo 4 Season 1 work:

• Complete the Diablo 4 Season 1 questline.
