Mother’s Blessing event returns to Sanctuary this week and provides 35% bonus to experience and gold in Diablo 4

Rejoice residents of Sanctuary for this week Lilith has once again deemed us worthy of a boon to our gold and experience while adventuring. From Tuesday, March 26, 10 a.m. PDT until April 2, 10 a.m. PDT Diablo 4 players will receive 35% extra gold and XP regardless of whether they are playing on the Eternal realm or playing their Season 3 characters. This bonus extends across all World Tier difficulties, so there’s no need to move up or down to take advantage of it.

Mother’s Blessing comes at a fortuitous time as the game itself is discounted for Black Friday, so someone starting new will get an extra boost for their first character. For those already playing the game, the extra experience will help get characters ready for when the new endgame challenge Abattoir of Zir opens on December 5 — and since these bonuses stack with the experience changes implemented with Season 2 players will have an even easier time working their way to level 100 in preparation for the Abattoir. It will also provide a boon to those who have yet to tackle the new endgame bosses due to low level characters.

While it’s easy to get distracted during this holiday week with all the sales and family responsibilities, those of us still partaking in the Diablo 4 experience have a strong reason to log in. For anyone else who stopped playing during Season 1 or early in Season 2, now’s the perfect time to return to see the new features of Season 2 including Hunter’s Acclaim rewards, Vampiric Powers, and the return of the class-specific Malignant Rings from Season 1. The bonus is a great incentive to complete the Season Journey while also making progress unlocking the collectibles on the Battle Pass, or for simply enjoying your time working on unlocking options in the paragon board, discovering all of Lilith’s Altars or farming Potent Blood during the Blood Harvest events to increase your Vampiric Powers.
