Diablo 4 is home to some extremely powerful gear and unique effects called Legendary Aspects that can be used during combat. As the game throws innumerable monsters at you, your damage and attack speed are highly important stats, so here’s how to get the Accelerating Aspect in Diablo 4.

Diablo 4 is full of demonic surprises that can wipe out any player who isn’t prepared for harder World Tiers. One key feature of creating your best build to explore Sanctuary’s map after finishing the main campaign is farming Legendary Aspects.

The Accelerating Aspect is one of the most powerful unique effects in Diablo 4. As it is an offensive Aspect, you can use it against hordes of enemies, and is extremely useful in Season 2. Here’s everything you need to know about the Accelerating Aspect and how to find it in Diablo 4.

What is the Accelerating Aspect in Diablo 4?

The Accelerating Aspect in Diablo 4 is a rare enhancement that increases a player’s Attack Speed by 15-25% after landing a Critical Strike with a Core Skill for five seconds.

This offensive Aspect can be used by any class and can be imbued on Weapons, Gloves, Rings, and Amulets.

Where to find the Accelerating Aspect in Diablo 4?

Finding the Accelerating Aspect in Diablo 4 isn’t easy since you’ll need to salvage it from an item that already has it before being able to use it.

This means that the best way to get your hands on the Accelerating Aspect is by farming Legendary Items. You can do this during Helltides, where the demon density is multiplied and you’ll find more elites roaming in the area.

During Helltides, you’ll also be able to open Tortured Gifts of Mysteries when collecting Aberrant Cinders. These chests usually drop up to five Legendary items when opened, or even Sacred or Ancestral objects depending on the World Tier you’re playing.

You can also try your luck with the Curiosity vendors in each town, which may give you Legendary items in exchange for Murmuring Obols.

How to get the Accelerating Aspect in Diablo 4?

In order to get the Accelerating Aspect in Diablo 4, you’ll need to extract it from a Legendary Item by visiting the Occultist.

If you’re lucky, you won’t need to salvage many Legendary items to get it; but if luck isn’t on your side, you might need to keep destroying objects until getting the Accelerating Aspect.

Remember that you’ll need to extract this Aspect for every piece of gear you want to imprint this Aspect onto.
