Diablo IV WoW Crossover Event: Greedy Emissary
Introduction to the Emissary Diablo Themed Event
Welcome, gamers! Today, we are diving into the thrilling, loot-filled world of the Emissary Diablo themed event in World of Warcraft. As part of the hype build-up for Diablo 4, this WoW event offers a myriad of exciting activities, primarily focused on slaying treasure goblins and acquiring unique event Loot and buff charms. The event commenced recently and is set to run until June 14th.
Event Mechanism
Every 30 minutes, a treasure goblin will spawn in a specific zone. Your mission? To defeat it and seize the sweet loot it drops. Conveniently, a portal appears in the zone every half an hour, giving you the perfect opportunity to hunt down the goblin. Five minutes after each portal opening, expect the goblin to show up – so keep your weapons at the ready! A countdown is also displayed on the portal, ensuring you are always aware of the timeline.
Loot and Buff Charms
Let's delve into the treasures you can acquire. Among the loot are Diablo-style buff charms, which, when carried in your bag, grant you the associated buff without the need to equip or activate anything. Note, however, that these charms have recently been disabled in instances according to a blue post, so there's no need to collect them for your raid night. That said, having these charms in your bag will make you stronger in outdoor activities.
Mounts, Bags, and More
This event isn't just about buff charms – there's a ton of other incredible loot to get your hands on. For instance, there's the Tyrael's Charger mount, once exclusive to the old annual pass promotion and later available in the shop, now up for grabs for free if you don't already have it.
Additionally, there's a 36-slot bag known as the Horadric Haversack – though it's unique-equipped, meaning your character can only use one.Increased Drop Rates
A noteworthy piece of information from a blue post states that Tyrael's Charger and the Haversack have a higher chance to drop on the first kill per day, per account. While the drop rate for all other items remains constant for each kill, these two items are a bit luckier on your first victory. You can definitely snag goodies from Treasure goblins after your first daily kill, but if you're hunting specifically for the Charger or the Haversack, your odds are better on your initial kill of the day.
Toys, Pets, and Transmogs
To further enhance your gaming experience, this event offers a pet called Baa'lial, three different toys (Tome of Town Portal, 12-string Guitar, and Nightmare Banner), and a variety of transmogs including the Enmity hood and cloak, Treasure Nabbin bag, Livestock Lockable Axe, and three different Wirt's legs. There's something for everyone!
Tips and Tricks
Goblins follow a fixed schedule, which can be tracked via a weak aura (US/EU) or a spreadsheet. A community Google doc, as well as a weak aura, display both North American and EU times, helping you predict the next Goblin's location. Remember, you can acquire loot even after your first kill of the day. If you encounter a pile of gold instead of items, don't lose heart – luck plays a role in this too. Notably, these goblins can be tagged and looted even by low-level characters.
Creating a Targeting Macro
If you're having trouble targeting the treasure Goblin, a handy tip is to create a simple macro like slash tar treasure Goblin. An interact key can help you loot the goblin even in a crowded area. To use it, you can enable it in your settings and assign it to any key of your choice.
Speed and Haste Buff
Additionally, you can step into treasure piles to receive a haste and movement speed buff, an excellent strategy if you're trying to maximize your performance on the Goblin.
Future Event: Experience Bonus
As part of this event series, an Experience bonus event will take place after the conclusion of the treasure Goblin event. This next event will offer a 50% increase in experience and reputation (excluding the Niffen), beginning on June 15th and running until approximately July 11th.
Closing Thoughts
All in all, the Emissary Diablo themed event offers an engaging and rewarding experience for World of Warcraft players. It serves as a thrilling prelude to the upcoming Diablo 4 game. With a wealth of loot, charming toys, and the promise of more fun to come, there's plenty to look forward to.
