Diablo 4 Shifting City dungeon: Location, how to clear, and more

The Diablo 4 Shifting City dungeon is one of the few dungeons in the game associated with a Stronghold. To access this dungeon, you'll have to clear a particular Stronghold nearby. There are many such dungeons in the game, and although they aren't particularly challenging, the fact that you have to complete a different activity to access them makes the overall process slightly tedious.

Like most of the dungeons in the game, the Diablo 4 Shifting City dungeon rewards you with an Aspect that you can then imprint on your equipment. Although this doesn't do much in terms of offense, it is a utility Aspect, making it essential for builds that rely on high skill uptime.
