Update on 7 July 2023: We've updated this article with any new information and details for Diablo 4's Scosglen region.

Diablo 4 Scosglen Overview & Lore

Scosglen, situated in the northeastern region of Sanctuary, serves as the ancestral homeland of the Druids, a group of nature-oriented warrior-poets. The landscape of Scosglen is themed after the real-life location of Scotl and takes inspiration from highlands and moors characterized by rough terrains, including rocky highlands and dense, eerie forests.

The centerpiece of Scosglen is the majestic oak tree called Glór-an-Fháidha, which holds great significance for the Druids, providing them with wisdom and guidance.

Here is the official description of the area provided by Blizzard's developers:

The untamed lands of Scosglen are as verdant as they are deadly. Those who get lost in the woods seldom return, their screams muted by spine-chilling howls. The druids who dwell here will do anything to protect their way of life, including risking the loss of their humanity to unleash the beast within.

However, be prepared, as uncovering the hidden secrets of the Druids within Scosglen will not be an easy task. The untamed and beautiful landscape poses challenges, and you should not underestimate the region simply because of its tranquil appearance. The presence of Demons, Drowned creatures, and Phantoms will test your survival skills, adding a layer of danger to the seemingly serene surroundings.

Scosglen Unique Materials

Every region in Sanctuary contains a rare material or resource that players can use to craft new items or gain more power. Scoslgen is known for being the only area where Howler Moss grows, which suits the area as its moist and humid weather is prime for moss to grow in.

Scosglen Stronghold Locations in Diablo 4

Strongholds are event areas occupied by different enemies that must be defeated to convert the stronghold into a friendly part of the Region. Usually, once a Stronghold is purged of enemies, it transforms and becomes a player-friendly town. However, there are situations where it may instead become a dungeon, presenting further challenges.

In the Scosglen region, there are three strongholds that players need to locate and clear. To assist you in your journey, the following are the listed locations of these strongholds.

• Hope’s Light – Located in the Northern part of the Region.
• Moordaine Lodge – Located in the Eastern part of the Region.
• Túr Dúlra – Located in the Western part of the Region.

Upon successfully capturing a Stronghold in Diablo 4, players will receive area-specific Renown Points as a reward. However, the benefits of completing a Stronghold go beyond just Renown. Players may also unlock a range of world rewards, including access to new dungeons, quests, and Waypoints.

Certain Strongholds may even offer shortcuts to other areas as a completion reward, introducing new opportunities for exploration. Players can look forward to interacting with new NPCs that emerge as the Stronghold is conquered. Moreover, completing a Stronghold can trigger the arrival of fresh vendors, the discovery of fragments of lore, or the unveiling of paths leading to other Altars of Lilith.

Scosglen Central Town: Cerrigar

Cerrigar serves as the primary bustling town hub within the Scosglen, boasting a significant size and hosting numerous NPCs to interact with. It features a convenient waypoint that enables swift travel within the region. The town's central area is particularly notable as it houses essential vendors such as:

• Jeweler
• Gambling
• Occultist 
• Alchemist

It is worth mentioning that utilizing the town portal while in Scosglen will consistently teleport the player back to Cerrigar, ensuring a reliable return point for further adventures.
