If you’ve learned a bit more about Season of the Construct for Diablo 4, have you heard about all the new Governing and Tuning Stones coming?
Well, if you haven’t, these little Stones can help augment your Seneschal Companion and make it stronger. There are many different types of these Stones, so here they all are.
Diablo 4 Season 3: All Governing and Tuning Stones
We now know a lot more about this Season before it has even begun due to this helpful blog post. During Season 3’s duration, you’ll get the chance to have a little robot companion follow you around. But it needs some upgrades, so if you’re preparing to go hunting, here are all the Governing and Tuning Stones in Diablo 4 Season of the Construct.
Governing Stones
You can equip two Governing Stones to your Seneschal Companion, and each one will give your robot a different attack or ability. There are a few different ways you come across these Stones, typically through random drops while exploring the ruins underneath Kehjistan, a new area for this Season. Here are all 12 Governing Stones and what they do.
- Autodefense: The Seneschal Construct activates an antimaterial field around itself shooting down enemy projectiles. Can not shoot down Boss or Player projectiles.
- Bushwhack: Quickly ambush dealing damage to each target. May strike the same target multiple times.
- Firefly: Deploy a small construct that lands on the target and explodes three times, dealing damage.
- Focus Fire: The Seneschal Construct channels a ray of fire onto targets dealing damage to each over time.
- Gyrate: The Seneschal Construct whirls its legs around quickly dealing damage to all surrounding enemies.
- Impale: Perform a line attack on all enemies in front of the Seneschal Construct dealing damage.
- Lightning Bolt: Launch a bolt of Lightning at the target dealing damage. Arcs to other targets dealing a portion of the original damage.
- Protect: The Seneschal Construct materializes a protective Barrier on the player for a portion of their Maximum Life.
- Reconstruct: The Seneschal Construct channels a reconstruction beam Healing the player for a portion of their Maximum Life over time.
- Slash: Pummel enemies in front of the Seneschal Construct dealing damage.
- Tempest: Electrically charge an enemy causing it to deal damage to themselves and additional enemies each second over time. If the enemy is killed, Tempest spreads to another enemy gaining additional time and bonus damage. These bonuses are also applied if Tempest is reapplied to the same enemy.
- Flash of Adrenaline: Administers a quick flash of adrenaline into the player, granting bonus damage for a duration.

There are even more Tuning Stones. You can find 27 different ones throughout Sanctuary, such as inside Vaults or Wardwoven Chests. Your Seneschal Companion can equip six Tuning Stones, each set of three augmenting a Governing Stone. Here are all of the support abilities that the Tuning Stones provide.

- Mockery Support: Damage done by the supporting Skill Taunts enemies hit for a limited duration of time. This can only occur once every so often per enemy. Does not work on bosses.
You should also know that there are two secret Tuning Stones that are fabled to exist. I’m guessing that these two are extremely rare to find, and all we know about them are the names: Evernight and Genesis. If you come across these two, know that they’re probably ones to keep around.
Now that you’ve learned a lot more about the Governing and Tuning Stones available, you should learn about The Gauntlet arriving soon in Diablo 4.
