However, entering the Abattoir of Zir isn’t a simple process, there are requirements that you’ll need to fulfill before you can step into the dungeon.

How to start the Abattoir of Zir in Diablo 4

To start the Abattoir of Zir, you first need to finish all Season of Blood Journey Chapters in Diablo 4.

Once that’s out of the way, you’ll need to craft a Bloodforged Sigil at an Occultist for 800 Sigil Powder. If you’re looking to enter Tier One of the Abattoir of Zir, you’ll need to craft a Tier One Bloodforged Sigil. When you use the Sigil, a blood portal will open in Ked Bardu.

The event itself features 25 tiers, and players will have 10 minutes to clear all enemies. When the progress bar is filled, a random boss will appear. Completing this process in Tier One unlocks Tier Two, and so on. Considering the pre-requirements and the difficulty level of the dungeon, reaching its later tiers will prove itself to be a worthy challenge for dedicated players.

I recommend getting to level 100 before attempting this event while also equipping your character with powerful gear.
