Meet Raxxanterax, a prominent figure in the Diablo community, who has unveiled a groundbreaking leveling method that's capturing attention and setting new records.

In a video titled “New Diablo 4 Leveling Strategy is Way Faster than Strongholds,” Raxxanterax introduces an innovative approach to leveling, capitalizing on the recent 1.1.1 patch changes to dungeons. Before the update, his record for reaching level 40 stood at a respectable three and a half hours. However, post-patch, he obliterated his own record, achieving level 40 in a mere 2 hours and 7 minutes.

The secret? Enter the “Domhainne Tunnels,” affectionately known as the “dopamine tunnels” within the player community. Previously, these tunnels were considered low-tier in terms of XP gain. However, due to the patch's density changes, they've now skyrocketed in value.

Raxxanterax reveals, “The initial section of the dopamine tunnels is teeming with monsters. By repeatedly resetting this part, you accumulate a colossal amount of XP, far surpassing anything we were getting in the strongholds before.”

His method is refreshingly straightforward: consistently run the initial section of the tunnels, leveraging the high monster density. Players should exclusively focus on this part of the dungeon for maximum efficiency, bypassing distractions like freeing prisoners. One notable perk of this method is that players won’t amass excessive loot, minimizing the need for frequent salvaging and vending.

Raxxanterax's strategy isn't just about speed; it's also about enhancing the gaming experience. He believes this new method is more engaging than the previous stronghold resets. He suggests utilizing the dopamine tunnels from levels 1 to 15, then revisiting them at level 48, and continuing until around level 55. Beyond this point, players should transition to nightmare dungeons.

With the next Diablo 4 patch slated for August 15, players are encouraged to make the most of this strategy while it lasts. Whether Blizzard will address the dopamine tunnels in future updates remains to be seen. For now, players can revel in the thrill of leveling up at unprecedented speeds, all thanks to Raxxanterax's insightful breakthrough.
