The Treasure Goblin event in Diablo 4 is now live, running from July 29 to August 5. During this limited-time event, Treasure Goblins spawn much more frequently across the game world, giving players a great opportunity to earn large amounts of Diablo IV gold, Obols, crafting materials, and even legendary gear. If you’re looking to boost your loot, now is the perfect time.
One important note: the event timer says “13 hours” instead of showing a clear end time, so it may end around 9 a.m. in your local time zone. Keep that in mind if you're farming late in the final hours.
What Is the Goblin Event?
This special event increases the spawn rate of Treasure Goblins in Diablo 4. These goblins normally appear randomly and are rare, but during the event, you’ll encounter them much more often, especially in certain areas.
Killing goblins during the event gives you loot bags that may contain:
· Gold
· Magical treasure (including legendary items)
· Murmuring Obols
· Crafting materials like Obducite and Optoxide
· Gems and runes
Best Places to Farm Goblins
1. Open World Zones (Best Option)
The best goblin farming method is simply running around certain open world zones where goblins appear frequently.
The top area to farm is Nahantu, which has narrow paths and maze-like layouts that encourage more goblin spawns. Kehjistan and PvP zones are also great, especially if you avoid the busiest areas.
Tips:
· Ride a mount to cover ground quickly.
· Look for white icons on the minimap, which indicate goblins.
· Disable cross-play in settings if you want fewer players competing for goblins.
· Prioritize Greed Shrines, which instantly spawn multiple goblins.
2. Repeatable Dungeon Near Cárigar
There’s a specific dungeon near Cárigar in the Kyovashad region that works well for goblin farming.
How it works:
· Enter the dungeon and complete the first phase.
· In the second phase, look for the Greed Shrine, which spawns 4–5 goblins when activated.
· Kill the goblins, then exit the dungeon using the emote wheel → "Abandon Dungeon."
· Re-enter and repeat as many times as you like.
This method is fast and reliable, especially for solo players.
3. PvP Zones
Surprisingly, PvP zones are also a good place to farm goblins. There are fewer players in these zones, which means more goblins for you. Just be prepared for occasional fights with other players.
Tips:
· Do a full circuit around the zone.
· Grab bounties while farming.
· Use teleport or fast movement skills to spot goblins quickly.
4. Nightmare Dungeons
These dungeons can spawn goblins, but it’s inconsistent. They only really shine when a Greed Shrine appears inside.
You can try farming here if you're running dungeons anyway, but it's not the most reliable method for goblin hunting.
What’s Inside the Goblin Loot Bags?
Each goblin can drop different types of bags:
· Green Bag: Crafting materials like Obducite
· Gold Bag: Gold only
· Blue Bag: Magical treasure — usually 2 legendary items + gold
· White Bag: Runes and gems
· Purple Bag: Murmuring Obols for gambling
These drops make goblin farming extremely rewarding during the event.
Best Builds and Classes for Goblin Farming
Speed and area damage are key. The best options include:
· Sorcerer: Great for teleporting and clearing fast
· Rogue: Good mobility and burst damage
· Druid/Necromancer: Slower, but still workable with the right setup
· Barbarian: Can work, but needs movement skills to keep up
Summary
The Goblin Event in Diablo 4 Season 9 is a great chance to farm Obols, gold, legendary loot, and Diablo 4 Items. Stick to open world zones, prioritize Greed Shrines, and repeat the Cárigar dungeon for the best results. The event only lasts until August 5, so don’t miss out on the loot while it lasts.
Good luck, and happy goblin hunting!
