Sanctuary will once again bask in Lilith's favor as Diablo IV's Mother's Blessing event returns from March 18-25, 2024. Players can look forward to significant experience and Gold boosts, along with additional rewards from the Tree of Whispers during this limited-time event.
Mother's Blessing Returns With Substantial Rewards
The Blessed Mother's generosity will soon flow through Sanctuary once again. Blizzard Entertainment has announced that the popular Mother's Blessing event is making its return to Diablo IV from March 18 through March 25, 2024, bringing a wealth of benefits to players across all realms.
During this special week-long period, all adventurers in Sanctuary will receive multiplicative bonuses that significantly accelerate progression: a 35% boost to experience gains and a hefty 50% increase to Gold acquisition. These bonuses will be active regardless of whether you're playing in the Seasonal or Eternal Realms, and they apply across all World Tiers.
Bonus Rewards From the Tree of Whispers
Beyond the universal XP and Gold boosts, the Tree of Whispers is feeling particularly generous during the Mother's Blessing. When returning Grim Favors, players will receive additional Gift of the Tree caches containing Collection of Chaos items, effectively doubling down on rewards for completing these activities.
The event's timing is perfect for players working through the current Season Journey, as the accelerated progression can help unlock Dorian the Raven and other seasonal rewards more efficiently. Veterans with multiple characters will also find this an ideal time to level up their roster.
How Will You Know When Mother's Blessing Is Active?
Players won't need to guess whether the event bonuses are active. Diablo IV will display a special icon above the experience bar indicating that Mother's Blessing buffs are currently in effect, making it easy to confirm you're receiving the benefits.
Maximizing Your Mother's Blessing Benefits
What makes this event particularly powerful is how these bonuses interact with other buffs in the game. The 35% experience and 50% Gold increases are multiplicative, meaning they stack efficiently with other bonuses like Elixirs and the Urn of Aggression. For efficiency-minded players, combining these buffs creates an exceptional opportunity to maximize progression.
Here are some ways to make the most of the Mother's Blessing event:
- Focus on Battle Pass progression to earn rewards more quickly
- Push characters to higher World Tiers
- Complete seasonal objectives for exclusive rewards
- Level alternate characters to diversify your gameplay options
- Farm Gold for expensive upgrades and crafting
Event Lore: The Blessed Mother and the Tree
The event ties into Diablo IV's lore, with the theme revolving around Lilith (the Blessed Mother) and her complex relationship with the Tree of Whispers. During this period, the Tree is said to be searching for lost Fugitive Heads, explaining the increased rewards for those who assist with Grim Favors.
The Mother's Blessing event begins on March 18, 2024, and runs for exactly one week, ending on March 25, 2024. Mark your calendars and prepare to make the most of Lilith's temporary generosity before the darkness of Sanctuary returns to its normal, unforgiving state.
