Diablo 4 players are increasingly frustrated in season 5 due to the rare drops of Exquisite Blood necessary for summoning Lord Zir. The community notes a noticeable decrease in drop rates, although no official changes have been confirmed by Blizzard.
Exquisite Blood Troubles in Season 5
Exquisite Blood is mainly obtained by killing the Blood Maiden in Helltides and has always been one of the core elements in Diablo 4’s gameplay loop. However, players are complaining that this traditional way is not giving as much reward as before.
Alternative Ways to Obtain Exquisite Blood
In light of these reports, gamers have started sharing new ways they’ve found for farming Exquisite Blood efficiently so that people who are having trouble gathering enough can finally get some relief: one of the popular alternative methods is completing the Season Journey, where reputation rewards include potential drops. Although it is a workaround, this process also has its cons since you have to create alt characters and replay content over again, which may take a lot of time and become monotonous.

Players are going back to Helltides despite the difficulties of farming using this method. According to posts on Reddit, the Helltide Elites should be focused on while spamming chests during the event, as they can still give out required resources consistently. However, there are some issues with this plan; it might not work well for single players who may find themselves constantly farming Blood Maiden, which is expensive in terms of both time and materials.
Besides Helltides, gamers have revealed different productive methods: participating in Legion and World Boss events, especially in World Tier 4. Another recommended strategy is defeating Elites in Nightmare Dungeons, whereby some players have achieved this at higher levels of difficulty. The Whispers of the Dead quest still stands as an option, too, giving another road into Exquisite Blood for those who want it.
Despite these tactics, the lack of Exquisite Blood in season 5 remains a touchy subject within the Diablo 4 community. Players are still left to try out different things by attempting various methods that they think could work best for farming this important resource while preparing to summon Lord Zir.
