How to complete the Chapter 1 Season Journey in Diablo 4
Season of the Malignant is finally here, and with it comes so much content for Diablo players to enjoy in the game - including the new Season Journey Chapters and their respective challenges.
Below you'll find everything you need to know if you were wondering how to complete Chapter 1 of the Season Journey in Diablo 4, as there are plenty of rewards waiting for you on the other side that make it well worth the effort.
How to complete Season Journey Chapter 1
In order to complete Chapter 1 of the new Season Journey in Diablo 4, all you need to do is finish seven of the nine available objectives. This is perfect if you're struggling with one or two particular challenges, as you can then just skip them over in favour of the other easier options.
You can choose any seven of the nine objectives available listed below, and they don't need to be completed in order either:
| Objective Name | Objective Requirement |
| The Hangman's Garden | Collect 15 Gallowvine |
| Heart of Corruption | Collect a Malignant Heart, which is available after completing or skipping the campaign |
| Den of Evil | Complete any Dungeon found on the map |
| Trouble in the Wilds | Complete any World Event found on the map |
| Into the Frozen Dark | Complete three Dungeons in Fractured Peaks |
| What Lurks Below | Complete a Cellar found on the map |
| Kind Stranger | Complete five priority or side quests |
| Keeper of the Keys | Collect a Whispering Key, sold at the Purveyor of Curiosities |
| Waste Not | Salvage 10 Normal items at the Blacksmith |

If I were to recommend two that you should skip, it would probably be Kind Stranger and Into the Frozen Dark, purely due to the longer time they would both take.

- Large Favor Drop
