Source: IGGMDiablo fans, the exciting March of the Goblins Event is back! After a false start with Mother’s Blessing and Patch 1.5.1, the developers needed a fun new event to rekindle excitement, which is why they’ve brought back the much-praised Goblins Event from Season 4.
In this guide, we’ll quickly cover all the details of March of the Goblins Event, including the event time and the rewards you’ll get from it. In addition, we’ll talk about how to maximize the number of Goblins you kill during Goblins Event that just went live in Season 5.
Event Time
March of the Goblins Event runs from 10 AM PDT on August 27th to 10 AM PDT on September 3rd. The event will last for seven days, so you’ll have plenty of time to slay Goblins and collect plenty of loot and Diablo 4 Gold.
In addition, Mother’s Blessing event has also been extended for two days, which means that in the early stage of Goblins Event, you can still enjoy more than 35% XP gain and more than 50% gold coin farming gain. But even if you miss out, the hordes of monsters you’ll kill during the event will still make you a lot of money!
Event Details
Just like last time, Sanctuary during March of the Goblins Event will be filled with Treasure Goblins. In some cases, you’ll even see them wandering around in pairs.
In addition to the increased presence of Treasure Goblins, you’ll also be more likely to find Greed Shrines during the event. As part of the event, activating Greed Shrines will spawn Treasure Goblins, and if you’re quick enough, you can get a lot of gear from them.
On top of that, the developers have added a new twist to March of the Goblins Event. Kill World Boss, Avarice the Gold Cursed, and you’ll be able to see a horde of Treasure Goblins pouring out of the portal, which will give players more reasons to defeat Avarice the Gold Cursed outside of the weekly cache.
How To Kill More Goblins?
This Goblins Event is similar to last season. Any Goblins at level 80 or above will drop Item Power 925 loot, which is the dream item for every player who wants to optimize their build. On top of that, you can also get rare items by farming them, and even have a chance to get Legendary loot bags. So now, if you farm Goblins the right way, you can get a lot of loot, boss materials, and more from there.
Next, we’ll explain how to maximize the number of Goblins, Treasure Bags, and Legendary items you can farm as quickly as possible.
Crafting Nightmare Sigils
To start, all you have to do is craft Nightmare Sigils between level 26 and 30, but higher level Sigils require more Sigil Powder. You’ll need to unlock Nightmare Sigil crafting and higher level Nightmare Dungeons before you worry about Sigil Powder.
Once you’ve fully unlocked Occultist ability, you’ll notice a “Salvage Sigils” button on the menu. Click it, and you’ll be able to dismantle any Nightmare Sigils you don’t want. You’ll get some Sigil Powder this way, depending on the level of the original Nightmare Sigils.
As for which Nightmare Sigils you should dismantle, prioritize those that are either of a suboptimal level or are too hard for your build to handle. If you need to dismantle more Nightmare Sigils, just run some Nightmare Dungeons and you’ll come back to town with more Sigils.
Find Sigils With Extra Shrines Affix
Next, look through Nightmare Sigils you made, check Green Affix on Sigils, and find Sigils with Extra Shrines Affix. Like I said before, you can recycle all Sigils you don’t need, make more Sigils, check their Green Affix, and repeat.
Run Nightmare Dungeons Fast
Once you have a bunch of these Sigils with Extra Shrines Affix, all you have to do is open and run the corresponding Nightmare Dungeons, completing the objectives. But you only need to kill the minimum amount of monsters to advance the dungeon to Boss stage and don’t forget to look for Greed Shrine in the process.
Greed Shrine Buff
I can’t stress enough that you only need to kill the minimum amount of monsters required to complete the objectives and run through the dungeons as fast as possible. Because during March of the Goblins Event, if you have Greed Shrine effect on you, you have a chance to spawn Treasure Goblins when you kill enemies. So don’t waste time, try to maximize your kills only when you have Shrine effect on you.
The best result is still to have a Cursed Greed Shrine, because in this case enemies will constantly spawn above your head. You can also try to lure many monsters to Shrine before activating it. However, this works better in group battles.
Killing Pairs Of Treasure Goblins
In addition to this, you can also find pairs or even triples of Treasure Goblins randomly in dungeons. These Goblins will drop Rare and Legendary loot bags containing Item Power 925 Gear.
Once you reach Boss of the dungeon, you can kill it for the loot and glyph leveling, or you can just teleport out and start the next Nightmare Dungeon and repeat.
All in all, this method is not as strong for Sigil Powder as you might think, since you will get a free Sigil after completing the boss, and Goblins themselves have a high chance of dropping Nightmare Sigil, so you should be able to do this an unlimited number of times without running out of Sigil Powder.
