New XP event is alive, and there's crazy loot right now in Diablo 4 Season 9. Mother's Blessing event follows closely on the heels of the unannounced March of the Goblins, another surprise event that gave players a reason to log in and farm loot. Read this D4 Mother's Blessing event, we'll break down the rewards, drops, best build, and farming tips!
What is Diablo 4 Mother's Blessing Event?
The Mother's Blessing event in Diablo 4 is a surprise, limited-time bonus period where players earn increased experience points and gold simply by playing the game. It began without any prior announcement and is active right now, continuing until August 12. During this time, all players benefit from the boost across all game modes and world tiers — there's nothing special to activate or unlock. You just log in and enjoy faster leveling and more gold drops than usual. Mother's Blessing serves a similar purpose: it rewards regular gameplay by making progression easier and more rewarding, especially for those trying to level new characters, push higher Torment content, or amass D4 gold for upgrades.
How to Participate in Mother's Blessing in D4?
To participate in the Mother’s Blessing event in Diablo 4, you don’t need to activate anything manually — it’s a global, automatic buff that’s applied to all characters as soon as you log in during the event window. Just log in and start playing. The event is active game-wide and applies to all players, on all World Tiers and in both Seasonal and Eternal Realms.
D4 Mother's Blessing Rewards
The Mother's Blessing event offers +35% multiplicative experience and +50% multiplicative gold gains. These bonuses apply only to monsters killed directly in the open world or dungeons. They do not apply to XP or gold granted by Pit completions, quests, or turn-ins.
Diablo 4 Mother's Blessing Drops
While the raw bonuses of Mother's Blessing are XP and gold, when combined with the goblin farming event, Rob2628 pulled in:
9 Solo Mythic Tributes
4 Group Mythic Tributes
Over 100 Refinement Keys
99 Radiant United Tribute Keys
Massive stacks of Iron Chunks, Raw Height, and Oblite (most of these capped out at inventory limits)
Up to 200,000 Oblite from a single bag-opening session
Tons of d4 mythic items and runes
Dozens of Ascendancy tributes and Undercity keys
Essentially, while Mother's Blessing doesn’t directly cause goblin bags to drop, the timing of the event supercharges your farming output if you're grinding mobs or running goblin routes.
Diablo IV Best Build for Mother's Blessing Event
1. Whirlwind Barbarian
The Whirlwind Barbarian stands out as one of the best builds for the Mother’s Blessing event in Diablo 4 — especially during its overlap with the March of the Goblins. The Whirlwind Barbarian excels in exactly this type of playstyle. You’re always on the move, constantly damaging everything around you, effortlessly mowing down trash mobs, elites, and goblins alike. It lets you maintain an almost uninterrupted kill chain, maximizing the XP and gold bonuses per minute from the event.

2. Flaying Fridge
The Flying Fridge Druid build is one of the absolute best setups for the Mother's Blessing Event because it combines insane speed, infinite uptime, and efficient monster-killing, which directly translates into maximizing the event’s +35% XP and +50% gold multipliers that apply only to kills — not objective clears. By leveraging Earth Spike as a spammable, untargeted skill, and combining it with Cosmic Anomaly teleport tech (aka “floaty bubble”), this Druid can literally fly across maps at warp speed, instantly deleting enemies without stopping.

D4 Mother's Blessing Event Tips
Double Dip While You Can
For the first 24 hours of Mother’s Blessing, it overlaps with the Goblin Event. This is the best time to grind, as you’ll get bonus XP and gold plus insane goblin loot like tributes, keys, and crafting materials.
Focus on Monster Kills, Not Closures
Mother’s Blessing only boosts rewards from kills, not event completion or Pit clear XP. So the best way to maximize benefit is open world farming, elite packs, goblin hunting, or dungeon trash clear—not closing objectives.
Farm Gold Goblins and Greed Shrines
The Gilded Barren (Gold Goblin) gives huge returns during this event. Combined with Greed Shrines and the 50% gold boost, Robie was farming billions of gold in short sessions.
Don’t Sleep on Solo Farming
Solo play gives you fewer group tributes, but farming goblins solo can still yield tons of Mythic Tributes and high-value resources. In fact, Robie calculated his 200k Oblite stack just from solo goblin bag runs.
Be Ready for Overflow Loot
Loot is so excessive that you will hit caps (Raw Height, Iron Chunks, Oblite, etc.). Make sure your inventory is cleared and plan to Masterwork items or consume resources between runs so loot doesn’t get wasted.
Use Evade Builds for Speed
The new perma-evade builds available for every class to zoom through goblin farms faster. Using it on Druid (“Flying Fridge”), but Sorc, Barb, and Necro can do the same.
Stack Tributes and Run Keys Later
You don’t have to run everything immediately. Stack up Radiant Tributes, Refinement Keys, and Mythic Tributes now during the event, then run them at your own pace after
This event is especially lucrative because it's currently stacking with the extended Goblin Event, leading to insane loot returns when farming goblins.
