The Season of Witchcraft in *Diablo 4* introduces a plethora of new content, and to truly maximize your experience, you'll need to get your hands on a scarce new resource: Fugitive Heads. Here’s a detailed guide on how to secure them in *Diablo 4* Season 7.
What Are Fugitive Heads in Diablo 4 Season 7?
*Diablo 4* Season 7 is brimming with exciting features, but the spotlight is undeniably on the Witchcraft Powers. These powers enhance your gameplay with unique abilities, yet they require additional resources to fully shine. Enter Occult Gems, a new resource that boosts your character with 160 Armor and an 8% Resist All bonus. The catch? Crafting these gems is no easy feat.
To begin crafting Occult Gems, you must first obtain a Fugitive Head and deliver it to Gelena at the Tree of Whispers. Once you have your first Fugitive Head, you can craft more Occult Gems by combining it with 1,000 Restless Rot and 50,000 Gem Fragments. Clearly, understanding how to acquire Fugitive Heads is crucial for your progress in *Diablo 4* Season 7.

How To Find Fugitive Heads in Diablo 4 Season 7
Blizzard has made the pursuit of Fugitive Heads challenging yet rewarding. To start your hunt, you must complete Whisper bounties in the new Headhunt zones of Season 7. Upon completion, there's a slight chance that an Uprooted Cocoon will appear. But don't celebrate too soon; these cocoons spawn Headrotten Bosses upon being destroyed. It's a game of luck, as defeating these bosses may yield a Fugitive Head.
Given the randomness involved, boosting your odds can make a significant difference. The Draught of Whispers Elixir, which you can obtain from Exposed Roots, Whispers Cache, and Coven’s Cache, increases the chance of Fugitive Heads spawning by 50% and also heightens the likelihood of encountering Forgotten Altars.
Difficulty level plays a pivotal role in your quest for Fugitive Heads. The spawn rate is extremely low on difficulties below Torment, so it's advisable for casual players to gradually acclimate to Torment difficulty before embarking on their Headhunt. Remember, Season 7 extends until April, giving you ample time to master the game and collect numerous Fugitive Heads.
