Crush Goblins on the Slay Ride to Hell
The undergrowth in Sanctuary is rife with creatures of the greediest inclinations. As these vermin scurry, the scarlet fur-lined bags on their backs jingle with loot ripe for the taking. Treasure Goblins are appearing in larger numbers, and it seems a hauntingly festive cheer has influenced their packs.
Starting on December 17, 10 a.m.—January 2, 10 a.m. PST, fight with your fellow wanderers across the globe to beat back the incursions of greedy mongrels for a heap of rewards. Band together with the entire Diablo IV community to reach global goblin slaying milestones, and tantalizing rewards will be yours for the taking.
While eviscerating packs of greedy goblins, don’t forget to use the Winback Booster in the Eternal Realm for an instant boost to Level 50, with included Legendary Items, powerful builds to use, and more. For more information on the Welcome Back Booster, read our blog here.

An alluring glow descends across the land, increasing the clarity and temperament of all stalwart demon slayers. The stars have aligned this holiday season to give a rare duration of Mother’s Blessing for all.
