The 7th season, Season of Witchcraft, has arrived to popular hack’n’slash Diablo 4. One of its main attractions is the new questline. It gives you access to a whole new story with additional powers, whispers and enemies. Unfortunately, some players have problems starting this event. This issue, fortunately, isn’t difficult to solve (and less stressful than Vessel of Hatred not working keys).

How to start Season of Witchcraft (SoW) in Diablo 4

To start Season of Witchcraft you must find Gelena in Gea Kul, she is by the sea, near a pier. Theoretically it’s pretty simple – all you have to do is locate the correct mission on the map and go to it. However, some players report problems. The NPC that allows you to start the story does not spawn and new missions do not appear. Of course, as a result, fans can’t start this quest.

Fortunately, Blizzard's Community Manager arrived to the rescue, explaining how the questline works. The solution to this problem is very easy.

  1. If you bought Vessel of Hatred DLC, you need to complete Prologue of this campaign (if you didn’t choose to skip it). Community members also pointed out that the quest must be completed on the character on which you want to play Season of Witchcraft.
  2. If you don’t have this DLC, you have to complete the base game prologue and then skip the campaign.

So, all you have to do is to finish one of the Prologues. It should not take you long. Good luck.
