The Season of Witchcraft in *Diablo 4* introduces a wealth of new content, but to fully immerse yourself in the latest season, players must navigate the challenge of acquiring a scarce new resource: Fugitive Heads. Here's a comprehensive guide on how to obtain Fugitive Heads in *Diablo 4* Season 7.
What Are Fugitive Heads in Diablo 4 Season 7?
*Diablo 4* Season 7 is packed with exciting features, but the spotlight shines on the Witchcraft Powers. These abilities enhance gameplay uniquely, yet they require more than just their own strength to shine. A new resource, Occult Gems, plays a crucial role, offering 160 Armor and 8% Resist All. However, crafting these gems is no easy feat.
To start crafting Occult Gems, players must first acquire a Fugitive Head and deliver it to Gelena at the Tree of Whispers. Subsequent crafting requires at least one Fugitive Head, 1,000 Restless Rot, and 50,000 Gem Fragments. Therefore, understanding how to obtain Fugitive Heads in *Diablo 4* Season 7 is essential for any player looking to maximize their seasonal experience.

How To Find Fugitive Heads in Diablo 4 Season 7
Blizzard has designed a challenging path to obtaining Fugitive Heads. To start, players must complete Whisper bounties in the newly introduced Headhunt zones. Completing these bounties may trigger the appearance of an Uprooted Cocoon, but the challenge doesn't end there. Upon opening the Cocoon, players will encounter Headrotten Bosses. Defeating these bosses, especially those carrying a Fugitive Head, is the key to obtaining this valuable resource.
Given the randomness involved, securing Fugitive Heads can be a lengthy process. Fortunately, players can increase their odds by using the Draught of Whispers Elixir, available from Exposed Roots, Whispers Cache, and Coven’s Cache. This elixir boosts the chance of Fugitive Heads spawning by 50% and increases the likelihood of Forgotten Altars appearing, adding another layer of strategy to the hunt.
Difficulty also plays a significant role in the hunt for Fugitive Heads. The resource has a very low spawn rate on difficulties below Torment. Therefore, it's advisable for casual players to gradually acclimate to Torment difficulty before embarking on their Headhunt. With Season 7 extending until April, there's ample time to explore and collect Fugitive Heads at your own pace.
