The huge map available to players in Diablo 4 offers a lot of opportunities for exploration. There are many dangerous dungeons to delve, interesting quests to undertake, and various small things to discover in Diablo 4. Cellars aren’t quite as impressive as dungeons, but they add a nice mix to the types of things players can encounter.
The Dry Steppes region is, as its name suggests, a vast, arid desert. Many terrifying creatures haunt the dunes and cliffs of the Dry Steppes, and they can be found in its cellars too. Here’s a complete list of all the cellars in the Dry Steppes, along with a description of their contents.
How Do Cellars Work in Diablo 4?
Cellars appear in every region in Diablo 4. They’re usually found in out-of-the-way places on the map, but they can also appear along the roadside. They won’t show on the map, but they can be seen on the minimap when they're nearby.
Cellars usually consist of a basic, small map that ends in a room filled with enemies. A rare few have events in them instead, and rarer still are the ones with puzzles. You can usually find the following loot in cellars:
- Gold and XP
- Crafting Materials
- Rare and Legendary Items
- Demon Hearts
- Sacred Weapons
Every Cellar in the Dry Steppes Region
