The Season of Witchcraft in *Diablo 4* introduces a wealth of new content, but to truly maximize your experience, you'll need to get your hands on a scarce new resource: Fugitive Heads. Here's everything you need to know about obtaining Fugitive Heads in *Diablo 4* Season 7.
What Are Fugitive Heads in Diablo 4 Season 7?
Season 7 of *Diablo 4* is packed with exciting features, but the highlight for many players is the introduction of Witchcraft Powers. These powers enhance your gameplay with unique abilities, yet they require a special resource to fully unlock their potential: Occult Gems. These gems grant 160 Armor and 8% Resist All, making them a valuable asset. However, crafting Occult Gems is no easy task; it requires Fugitive Heads, which you can only obtain by bringing them to Gelena at the Tree of Whispers. To craft more Occult Gems, you'll need at least one Fugitive Head, 1,000 Restless Rot, and 50,000 Gem Fragments. Understanding how to acquire Fugitive Heads is crucial for progressing in *Diablo 4* Season 7.

How To Find Fugitive Heads in Diablo 4 Season 7
Blizzard has made the quest for Fugitive Heads a challenging one. To start, you must complete Whisper bounties in the newly introduced Headhunt zones. Upon completion, there's a small chance that an Uprooted Cocoon will spawn. However, opening the cocoon isn't straightforward; it triggers the appearance of Headrotten Bosses. Defeating these bosses might reward you with a Fugitive Head, but it's largely a game of chance.
Fortunately, there are ways to increase your odds. The Draught of Whispers Elixir, which can be obtained from Exposed Roots, Whispers Cache, and Coven’s Cache, boosts the chance of Fugitive Heads spawning by 50%. It also increases the likelihood of encountering Forgotten Altars, adding another layer of excitement to your hunt.
The difficulty level plays a significant role in your chances of finding Fugitive Heads. They have a very low spawn rate on difficulties below Torment, so it's advisable for casual players to gradually acclimate to Torment before embarking on a Headhunt. With Season 7 running until April, there's ample time to explore and gather plenty of Fugitive Heads.
That's how you can obtain Fugitive Heads in *Diablo 4* Season 7. For more tips, check out our guide on how to solve and complete Poison in the Roots.
