How To Find the Black Market in Devil Hunter?
Finding the Black Market requires meeting specific requirements and knowing the exact location. Let me break down the precise steps.
Step 1: Meet the Prerequisites
Before accessing the Black Market, you must:
Level Requirement: Reach Level 25 minimum. If you haven’t reached this, focus on:
Main story quest completion
Daily mission grinding
Farming in Demon Wastelands for optimal XP
Joining parties for dungeon runs
Quest Requirement: Complete “Shadow’s Calling” questline (unlocks around Level 20-22):
Finish all Chapter 3 main story missions
Talk to Mysterious Hooded Figure in Central Hub
Accept “Whispers in the Dark” quest
Complete three-part investigation mission
Defeat Shadow Beast boss (15,000+ combat power recommended)
Return to Hooded Figure for completion
Once “Shadow’s Calling” is done, you’ll get a notification that Black Market access is unlocked.
Step 2: Navigate to Demon Realm District 3
The Black Market sits in a hidden area within Demon Realm District 3.
From Central Hub:
Open world map (M key on PC, map icon mobile)
Select “Demon Realm” from region list
Choose “District 3” (purple-tinted eastern area)
Teleport to “Forgotten Plaza” waypoint
Alternative Route: If you haven’t unlocked Forgotten Plaza waypoint, travel on foot from District 2. Follow the main road eastward until you see the large broken fountain.
Step 3: Locate the Hidden Portal
This is where most players struggle. The portal isn’t marked on your map.
Exact Location:
From Forgotten Plaza waypoint, face northwest
Look for cluster of three dead trees near crumbling stone wall
Walk between the middle tree and the wall
You’ll see faint purple shimmer in the air – that’s the portal
Walk directly into shimmer to enter Black Market
Visual Landmarks:
Broken cart with scattered barrels nearby
Purple mushrooms at tree bases
Dark mist pooling around area
Ambient whispering sounds (increase volume to hear)
The portal only appears if you’ve completed “Shadow’s Calling”. If no purple shimmer is visible, verify quest completion.
Step 4: Enter the Black Market
Walking through the portal transports you to the Black Market realm. First visit includes brief loading screen and cutscene introducing Malachar, the Black Market merchant.
The Black Market appears as mystical underground cavern with floating platforms, glowing crystals, and mysterious vendors:
Weapons Vendor (left side, red banners)
Armor & Accessories Vendor (center, purple tent)
Consumables & Materials Vendor (right side, blue crystals)
Limited-Time Deals Vendor (back area, golden glow)
You’re now free to explore and purchase! The Black Market remains accessible from this point forward using the same portal.
Alternative Access Methods
After discovering the Black Market traditionally, quicker access options include:
VIP Pass: Level 3+ VIP members access directly from menu
Guild Perk: High-level guilds unlock guild hall portal
What Makes the Black Market Special?

Optimization Strategy
Daily Routine:

6 PM reset: Last daily rotation chance
Weekly Planning:
Save Blood Tokens for weekends (better items)
Stock Dark Crystals mid-week for weekend shopping
Check announced special events for exclusives
Monthly Goals:
Target 1-2 legendary items/month (realistic)
Budget currencies – don’t blow first week
Track item rotation frequency
Common Mistakes to Avoid
Save yourself from these pitfalls I’ve seen repeatedly.
Mistake 1: Spending Currency Hastily
Biggest mistake: spending all currency immediately on first decent item. Inventory rotates every 6 hours! That 5,000 crystal sword might be replaced by something better next rotation.
Solution:
Observe rotation patterns 2-3 days
Create item wishlist
Only impulse buy with <1 hour remaining
Keep reserve: 2,000 Dark Crystals + 500 Blood Tokens
Mistake 2: Inefficient Currency Farming
Wasting time on low-yield activities while ignoring high-yield sources.
Decision Framework: Item costs 5,000 Dark Crystals = 500 mins (8.3 hrs) farming Same item 250 Blood Tokens = 5,000 mins (83 hrs) farming → Obviously buy with Dark Crystals!
Bulk Buying Strategy
Some items worth buying in bulk during specific rotations.
Best Bulk Buys:
Skill Reset Tokens (33% discount bundles)
Enhancement Stones (when legendaries appear)
Summon Tickets (25-30% savings)
Consumable Bundles (discount rotations)
Storage:
Max stackable items: 999/slot
Use bank storage (unlocked Level 30)
Don’t bulk buy equipment (limited space)
Sell old gear regularly
Partnership Farming
Teaming dramatically increases efficiency.
Form Farming Group:
Join active guild or find partners (global chat)
Create 4-person party (optimal for bosses)
Rotate farming locations for multiple bosses
Use voice chat (Discord recommended)
Share rotation information
Group Benefits:
Kill bosses 3-4x faster
Cover ground during respawn timers
Share Black Market deal info
More enjoyable grinding
Our Route: Demon Wastelands boss → Shadow Peaks boss → Corrupted Forest boss → return to Demon Wastelands (respawned). 45-min circuit = 800-1,200 Dark Crystals each.
Event Optimization
Events boost currency drops or add exclusive items.
Event Types:
2x Dark Crystal Events (farm heavily)
Blood Token Bonus Weekends (Nightmare dungeons)
Limited Black Market Expansion (new exclusives)
Anniversary Events (huge discounts)
Event Calendar:
Check official social media weekly
Events typically Friday-Sunday
Major updates include 1-2 week events
Seasonal events have unique items
Maximizing Events: During 2x currency events:
Clear schedule for maximum playtime
Stock boosters/farming consumables
Coordinate farming group advance
Set currency targets (e.g., 20,000 crystals weekend)
Avoid spending until event ends (better deals may appear)

FAQ
Where exactly is the Black Market located in Devil Hunter?
The Black Market is accessed through a hidden portal in Demon Realm District 3. From the Forgotten Plaza waypoint, head northwest to find three dead trees near a crumbling stone wall. Walk between the middle tree and the wall to find the purple shimmer portal. You must be Level 25+ and have completed the “Shadow’s Calling” questline to see and access it.
What are the best items to buy from the Black Market?
The top priority items are Shadow Reaver legendary sword (5,000 Dark Crystals), Abyssal Hunter Set (3,000 Blood Tokens), Blood Moon Pendant (1,500 Blood Tokens), Legendary Summon Ticket bundles (7,500 Dark Crystals), and Skill Reset Token bundles (2,000 Dark Crystals). These offer either exclusive power or significant discounts compared to regular shops.
How do I farm Dark Crystals efficiently?
The most efficient method is elite boss farming in groups, yielding 150-300 crystals per boss with 30-minute respawns. Always complete your daily missions (500 crystals guaranteed) and weekly missions (1,000 bonus). Participate in demon hunt events every 2 hours (200-400 crystals each). A solid daily routine can net 3,000-4,000 Dark Crystals in 2-3 hours.
How often does the Black Market inventory reset?
The Black Market resets every 6 hours at 12 AM, 6 AM, 12 PM, and 6 PM server time. Each reset completely refreshes the inventory, changes limited-time deals, and may introduce new legendary items. Some purchase limits reset every 24 hours at midnight, while others reset with each 6-hour rotation.
What’s the difference between Dark Crystals and Blood Tokens?
Dark Crystals are more common and earned from elite bosses, daily missions, and demon hunt events. They’re used primarily for legendary weapons and consumables. Blood Tokens are rarer, obtained from nightmare dungeons, world bosses, and guild wars. They’re used for exclusive accessories and limited items. Blood Tokens take approximately twice as long to farm per unit compared to Dark Crystals.
Can I access the Black Market on mobile?
Yes, the Black Market is fully accessible on mobile devices. The process is identical: reach Level 25, complete “Shadow’s Calling,” travel to Demon Realm District 3, and find the hidden portal. Mobile players may need to zoom in to see the purple portal shimmer clearly. Enable push notifications for reset timers and use landscape mode for better visibility.
How do I unlock the Shadow’s Calling questline?
Shadow’s Calling unlocks around Level 20-22 after completing all Chapter 3 main story missions. Talk to the Mysterious Hooded Figure in the Central Hub to accept “Whispers in the Dark.” Complete the three-part investigation, defeat the Shadow Beast boss (recommended 15,000+ combat power), and return to the Hooded Figure to finish the questline and unlock Black Market access.
What happens if I miss a limited-time item in the Black Market?
Limited-time items rotate back eventually, though timing varies. Weapons tend to reappear more frequently during 6 PM resets, while armor sets favor midnight and noon rotations. Track the items you’ve seen over 2-3 weeks to identify patterns. Alternatively, some items return during special events or can be obtained through alternative methods like world boss drops, though the Black Market typically offers the best rates.
