U4GM How to get Goblin Greedings rewards fast tips guide

Sanctuary's holiday vibe is usually all frostbite and bad news, so it's kind of wild to say this out loud: the Diablo 4 Items grind is about to feel a lot friendlier. From December 18 through January 6, Blizzard's running the Goblin Greedings event, and Treasure Goblins are popping up way more often across every realm. If you've been hovering over the login button, this is the sort of window that actually pays off—more targets, more drops, less dead time riding around hoping something spawns.

The whole event hangs on the March of the Goblins reputation board. It's not complicated, and that's the point. You spot a goblin, you chase it down, you delete it before it portals out. Each kill pushes your rep forward and unlocks tier rewards, which you pick up at Goblin Square in Kyovashad. It's got that familiar "fill the bar, claim the cache" feel, but it's way more satisfying because the progress comes from moment-to-moment hunting instead of a checklist of chores.

If you've been playing for a while, you already know what everyone's eyeing: the final board reward is a Resplendent Spark. Normally, getting one can feel like you're wrestling the game's stingiest systems, so earning it by doing what you'd be doing anyway—running around and stomping goblins—is a real win. It's especially useful if you're trying to craft those top-end uniques (call 'em Uber or Mythic, whatever). One thing to note: the last tier can be repeated for extra loot, but that Spark is a one-time payout, so don't expect to print them forever.'

There's also a nice side bonus if you're living at the Tree of Whispers. While the event's active, turning in Grim Favors gives an extra Gift of the Tree cache, the Collection of Chaos. It's basically free value stacked onto your normal route, which makes Whispers feel less like background noise and more like a smart way to round out your mats. And if you're the type who grabs cosmetics even when you swear you don't care, check the shop: the "Tackle of the First Snows" trophy lands on the 18th, "Fallow-ward" on the 19th, and the "Crook of First Snow" mount armor on the 20th.

The weirdest part of the whole announcement is the little wink about Paladins and the Light finding its way back to Estuar. Could be nothing. Could be Blizzard doing that classic thing where they toss in one loaded word and watch the community spiral. Either way, it's hard not to read into it when the phrasing feels so specific, and you'll probably see people testing theories in trade chat within an hour. For now, the practical move is simple: get your rep done before January 6, scoop the Spark, and if you still need to round out crafting materials, it's a solid moment to buy diablo 4 runes while you keep the goblin hunt rolling.
