There’s an old tome you’ll find in the Amber Sands, along the western coast. Interacting with the book will start the quest, much like another side quest, The Traveler’s Superstition.

  1. Read the Old Book in the Amber Sands.

    Like many of these riddles, it starts with a bit of reading. You’ll find an Old Book on the ground. Reading it will start Pilgrim’s Footsteps. Mark it as your active quest and head to the location.read the old book to start the pilgrim's footsteps in diablo 4

  2. Stand in front of the statue of Akarat and open the Emote Wheel.

    If you’re using a controller, it’s ‘Up’ on the D-pad, but ‘E’ on the keyboard to bring up the Emote Wheel.

  3. Select the ‘Follow’ emote.

    The ‘Follow’ emote should already be an option by default, unless you’ve made changes yourself. If you choose to customize your Emote Wheel, you can add the emote back in.use the follow emote to complete pilgrim's footsteps in diablo 4

After you’ve made the proper sign, a chest will appear nearby containing some loot and elixirs. This is in addition to gold and experience for completing the quest, though the amount varies based on your level.
