Diablo 4has officially launched Season 7, which is the Season of Witchcraft. During this season, you can access extra perks, such as Witchcraft Powers, that give you various abilities, such as flaming crows coming to attack your enemies every few seconds. On top of that, you can also craft and use Occult Gems, which providebonuses to your Witchcraft Powers. Because of this, the Tree of Whispers will be your hub during this season since it’s where you can access and craft most of your seasonal perks.

However,Paragon points from Season 7 will transferto your normal characters once the season ends.
