The Season of Witchcraft in *Diablo 4* introduces a wealth of new content, but to fully enjoy the latest season, players need to gather a scarce resource known as 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 new elements, but the highlight for many is the Witchcraft Powers. These powers offer diverse abilities that enhance gameplay, yet they require additional resources to maximize their potential. One crucial resource is the Occult Gems, which grant 160 Armor and an 8% Resist All boost. However, crafting these gems is no easy task.
To begin crafting Occult Gems, players must first acquire a Fugitive Head and deliver it to Gelena at the Tree of Whispers. Following this initial step, crafting subsequent gems requires at least one Fugitive Head, 1,000 Restless Rot, and 50,000 Gem Fragments. Clearly, understanding how to obtain Fugitive Heads is essential for success in *Diablo 4* Season 7.

How To Find Fugitive Heads in Diablo 4 Season 7
Blizzard has made the acquisition of Fugitive Heads a challenging endeavor. To find these rare items, players must complete Whisper bounties in the newly introduced Headhunt zones of Season 7. Upon completion, there's a small chance that an Uprooted Cocoon will spawn. However, opening these cocoons isn't straightforward; they release Headrotten Bosses. With a bit of luck, some of these bosses will carry a Fugitive Head, which players can obtain by defeating them.
This process is inherently lengthy and relies heavily on chance. Fortunately, players can increase their odds of encountering Fugitive Heads by using the Draught of Whispers Elixir. This elixir, available through Exposed Roots, Whispers Cache, and Coven’s Cache, boosts the spawn rate of Fugitive Heads by 50% and increases the likelihood of Forgotten Altars appearing.
The difficulty level also plays a significant role in the spawn rate of Fugitive Heads. On difficulties below Torment, the chance of finding these resources is exceedingly low. Therefore, it's advisable for more casual players to gradually acclimate to the Torment difficulty before embarking on their Headhunt. With Season 7 running until April, there's ample time to explore and gather Fugitive Heads at a comfortable pace.
And that's the complete guide on how to get Fugitive Heads in *Diablo 4* Season 7. For more tips, check out our guide on how to solve and complete Poison in the Roots.
