Best Infernal Offerings and Combinations for Aether
|
|
The Summoned Hellborne
The Summoned Hellborne is the best Aether Event in the Infernal Hordes because they grant the most Aether. The best upgrade for this boon is The Surging Hellborne which adds another Hellborne to the Aether Event and increases each Hellborn Aether drop by 1.
Hellish Masses and Hellborne Combinations
Hellish Masses grant a chance to spawn 3 Hellborne upon completion, when paired with Surging Hellborne and other Hellborne offerings, it easily becomes one of the best offerings in the game when it comes to farming Aether.
You can also pair this with Bursting Masses, Massing Masses, and Puffing Masses. Bursting Masses allows you to start a wave with 2 Masses, while Massing Masses allows you to gain a chance of spawning another Aether Mass when you kill one. Finally Puffing Masses, increases the Aether drops of an Aether Mass depending on the number of your offerings.
The Exalted Horde
The Exalted Horde boon allows you to spawn Aether Events faster when killing mobs, ultimately allowing you to gather more Aether in each wave. This is exceptionally great when paired with other boons tied to the Hellborn offerings.
Depending on your clear speed, you can stack this offering if you ever come across more than one.
Fiendish Legions and Exalted Fiends
Fiendish Legions provide a chance for Elites to turn into Aether Fiends, combined with Exalted Fiends this offering becomes a great way for farming Aether.
Seaon 10 Changes

|
The Infernal Hordes Reborn is an upcoming rework to the Infernal Hordes systems designed to make the activity more engaging and rewarding. As of August 19, 2025 until August 26, 2025 players can experience these new features in the PTR.
Season 10 Release Date and New Features
Pre-Torment Availability
In the Season 10 PTR, the Infernal Hordes will have a pre-torment difficulty variant, known as Fleeting Hordes, This is a modified version of the Infernal Hordes, with only 4 waves of enemies and two Fell Council bosses at the end.
Adding to this, there will be a balance between Offerings, adjusted Monster populations, Chaos Waves, and immediately starting your run with an Infernal Offering.
New Boss: Bartuc
Bartuc is a new Boss that appears after the final wave in the Infernal Hordes. Upon completing the final wave of an Infernal Horde, players have the option to fight the Fell Council, or spend their Aether to summon Bartuc.
Bartuc Location and How to Beat
Chaotic Offering
Players have the option to interact with The Chaotic Offering in between waves, which has a chance of appearing in addition to the existing buff and debuff choices that appear after every wave.
Interacting with a Chaotic Offering transforms the following wave into a Chaos Wave, which introduces random effects and mechanics, creating an additional layer of challenge.
What is the Infernal Horde?
Horde-Based Dungeon
The Infernal Horde is a roguelike, horde-based game mode introduced in Season 5. In this mode, you select various buffs that come with negative effects, which can impact the battle as you confront multiple waves of enemies.
To access this dungeon, you must use an Infernal Compass, which comes in different difficulties. The difficulty of the compass depends on the Torment difficulty you're on, with Torment 1 being the easiest, and Torment 4 being the hardest. The number of waves is now randomized for each compass.
How to Unlock the Infernal Horde
Reach Torment Difficulty
You can only access the Infernal Hordes in Torment difficulties as this is where you'll obtain the Infernal Compass needed to open the dungeon. You cannot use the Infernal Compass in Standard Difficulties as the difficulty of the Infernal Horde will rely on the Torment difficulty you're on.
How to Enter the Infernal Horde
Use An Infernal Compass
To enter the Infernal Horde, you need an item called the Infernal Compass. These compasses work like Nightmare Dungeon Sigils, allowing you to open a portal to start the dungeon.
You can obtain these compasses as rare drops from completing Whisper Bounties, Nightmare Dungeons, The Pit, opening chests in Helltide in any Torment difficulty.
How to Get Infernal Hordes Compasses
Infernal Horde Rewards
Random Rewards Depending on Chest
In the Infernal Horde, defeating enemies rewards you with a currency called Burning Aether. At the end of the Infernal Horde, you can use this currency to open chests containing various rewards.
There are three different types of chests available, each offering specific items depending on what you wish to farm.
List of Burning Aether Chests
| Chest | Burning Aether | Reward |
|---|---|---|
| Spoils of Greater Equipment | 200 | ・ Guaranteed Ancestral Legendary Item ・Random Legendary Items |
| Spoils of Materials | All Remaining Aether | ・Gem Fragments ・Obducite ・Scroll of Restoration ・Crafting Materials |
| Spoils of Gold | All Remaining Aether | ・Gold |
Fell Council Drops Legendary Items
The Fell Council now drops legendary items with Infernal Hordes Affixes on them. We're still determining what these Infernal Hordes affixes are, but our team will investigate this as soon as Season 6 drops.
