Diablo 4 Ashava the Pestilent World Boss spawn times and location

The biggest challenge in the Diablo 4 beta is the first world boss, Ashava the Pestilent. Ashava is a tough dragon demon thing with a slew of powerful attacks that can and will take you down in one shot if you’re not prepared. You can only beat this world boss once a week, and luckily he will appear more often during the “Server Slam” beta weekend.

Ashava can be challenged by up to 12 players and will bring you legendary rewards – if you are able to take them down. Read on to find out where and when to find Ashava the Pestilent Diablo 4.


Where to find the location of Ashava the Pestilient in Diablo 4

Ashava can be found in the Melting potlocated on the east side of the Broken peaks. In Diablo 4enemies and zones usually scale with your level, but the Crucible is a level 25 zone – also the maximum level during the beta.

We recommend that you either get to max level or as close to level 20 as possible, and collect some Legendary and unique gear to match your build before challenging Ashava.
