Quick Answer
Answer first
Ether Points are progression points spent in the Ether Tree. The official system notes describe Ether quests as special quests on Hell difficulties and Inferno, while Season 10 patch notes add much more Ether Tree space and better quest visibility.
Current practical flow: reach post-campaign progression, hit level 100, enter Hell+ content where Ether quest progress can appear in the pause-menu Quest Log, complete the relevant Ether quests, then spend points in the Ether Tree.
If Ether Points do not appear, it is often a progression or UI-state issue rather than a bug: check level 100, difficulty, Quest Log visibility, completed/uncompleted Ether quest state, and whether your source is using the latest Season 10 patch numbers.
Basics
What Ether Points are
Ether Points are not ordinary skill points. They belong to the Ether Tree progression layer, which lets players invest in endgame mechanics and farming targets.
Season 10 did not remove that idea. Instead, it expanded the system: official patch notes add more than 100 Ether Tree nodes and hotfix notes improve the visibility of completed and uncompleted Ether quests on Hell+.
How To Get Them
Current acquisition path
- Reach the later progression stage instead of expecting Ether Points during early Normal campaign play.
- Hit level 100, which current community guides and developer-announcement mirrors identify as the start of Ether visibility or starter points.
- Enter Hell+ content. Official older Ether-system notes describe Ether quests on Hell difficulties and Inferno, and Season 10 patch notes say Ether quest status is visible in the pause menu on Hell+.
- Complete the Ether quests shown for your current difficulty or progression state.
- Spend points in the Ether Tree and adjust the tree when your farming target changes.
Ether Tree
Ether Tree, Incarnation Tree, and points
Think of Ether Points as the currency for the Ether Tree. The tree changes which endgame mechanics you can force, improve, or build around, depending on current node wording.
The Incarnation Tree is adjacent but separate. Season 10 added more than 600 Incarnation nodes, while the Ether Tree received more than 100 new nodes. Do not mix the two point systems when following guides.
Troubleshooting
When Ether Points do not appear
- Confirm your character is level 100 or otherwise in the current Ether unlock range shown by the game.
- Confirm you are in Hell+ or another difficulty where Ether quests are expected to appear.
- Open the pause-menu Quest Log and look for completed or uncompleted Ether quests; Season 10 hotfix notes specifically mention this visibility.
- Check whether you already spent points in the Ether Tree, reset the tree, or are looking at Incarnation progression instead.
- Compare exact point totals carefully. Community sources around launch mention different starter amounts, while developer-announcement mirrors later report a base level-100 amount.
Not Always A Bug
Common false alarms
- You are below level 100 and expecting the Ether Tree too early.
- You are still in Normal or Nightmare campaign progression and not in the expected Hell+ quest state.
- You are checking the wrong tree, especially confusing Incarnation nodes for Ether nodes.
- You are reading a Season 9 or launch-day guide with a starter-point number that changed in a hotfix.
- You completed a quest but have not refreshed the UI, reopened the Quest Log, or checked whether the point was already spent.
Decision Guide
What to check first
No quest progress
Check Hell+ Quest Log visibility and whether the Ether quest is completed or uncompleted.
Wrong point total
Treat exact amounts as patch-sensitive and compare against the latest current-version notes.

Needs Manual Review
Before publishing exact details
- Exact starter Ether Point amount and exact timing, because launch-era community guides and later developer-announcement mirrors disagree.
- Exact repeatability and point amounts for each Ether quest on Hell difficulties and Inferno.
- Any claim that missing Ether Points is a confirmed bug rather than a level, difficulty, Quest Log, or spent-point state.
