Season 13's endgame has plenty of ways to chase gear, but Echoing Hatred is the one people keep talking about for a reason. If you're trying to stack upgrades, farm materials, and sort out your next build without wasting half the night, this gauntlet can feel like opening a vault of D4 items after one hard push. It's not casual content, though. You need the right key, a strong character, and enough patience to deal with a fight that gets nasty once the waves start climbing.
The annoying part comes before the event even starts. Entry keys only drop from Undercity runs on Torment 10 or higher, and they don't show up often. Some players get lucky after a few runs. Others grind for ages and see nothing. That's just how it goes. If your build can't clear high Torment fast, it's worth fixing that first, because slow Undercity farming makes the whole process feel rough.
| Activity | Main Purpose | Player Concern |
| Undercity Torment 10+ | Key farming | Very low drop rate |
| Echoing Hatred early waves | Build rhythm and setup | Keep moving and save cooldowns |
| Echoing Hatred high waves | Best loot potential | Enemies become much tougher |
| Reward phase | Chest and Goblin bags | Depends on goblins killed |
Once you're inside, Echoing Hatred is simple on paper. Kill demons, push the tier higher, and stay alive. In practice, it gets messy. Around wave 110, monsters stop falling over and start soaking hits like they've got somewhere else to be. A glass cannon build can clear the early part, then suddenly get deleted. You'll want steady damage, solid defenses, and a way to recover when the screen turns into chaos.
The biggest mistake is treating goblins like a side target. They aren't. Every Treasure Goblin you kill changes the payout at the end, because each one adds a Goblin Plunder bag to your rewards. Let one slip away and you've basically thrown loot on the floor. It sounds dramatic, but that's how the event feels when you finish a run and count the bags. During hectic waves, it's better to break off from regular enemies and chase the goblin down first.
A clean Echoing Hatred clear takes about eighteen minutes, give or take. That's a long fight, but the reward screen explains why players keep doing it. You get the main chest, extra loot bags, gear to inspect, and plenty of pieces that can be salvaged for materials. For players comparing farming time against outside options like D4 items cheap, the event still stands out because one strong run can help gear a main character and give an alt a serious head start.
