How to Get Skull Gems in Diablo 4
Skull Gems will drop once players defeat enemies in Diablo 4 or when they go through the chests in the dungeons. While a specific location is not necessary, the level of Skull Gems that you get depends on your current level. If you have completed the campaign and have already gone through Nightmare Dungeons and unlocked World Tier, you might get a Skull Gem that is rarer and more useful while playing.
