What Are Helltide Chests and Helltide Mystery Chests in Diablo IV?
Helltide Chests are a special type of chest that can only appear during the Helltide in Diablo IV. The Helltide is a repeating in-game event that can happen in some areas of the Diablo IV map. Helltide can only occur on Nightmare Difficulty (World Tier 3) or higher. During the Helltide, the affected areas will be much more dangerous to explore, filled with more powerful enemies and other hazards. However the potential rewards are also greater, and this includes the presence of Helltide Chests and Helltide Mystery Chests.
Helltide Chests, marked in yellow/gold on the above maps, are the standard quality version of these chests. They have a chance to contain one or more Legendary Items. Note that they not spawn in all possible locations all of the time. During Helltide you will need to check all of the possible spawn locations to find which ones contain a chest.
Helltide Mystery Chests work in pretty much the same way, but they are rarer and contain more powerful items. Mystery Chests can contain multiple Legendary Items. Farming these is currently one of the best ways of obtaining high quality Legendary Gear, as long as you are comfortable playing in the Helltide.
How Can I Open Helltide Chests in Diablo IV?
To open the chests, you’ll need to spend Abberant Cinder, a special currency looted from enemies you defeat in Helltide-affected areas.
Helltide Chests come in three different types, and the cost of opening them varies based on the type:
- Tortured Gift of Protection (Contains Armour) – 75 Abberant Cinders
- Tortured Gift of Jewelry (Contains Jewelry) – 125 Abberant Cinders
- Tortured Gift of Weaponry (Contains Weapons) – 150 Abberant Cinders
The Helltide Mystery Chest, also known as the Tortured Gift of Mysteries, can contain a combination of the above item types, and may contain several Legendaries. It costs 175 Abberant Cinder to open these chests.
Beware that if you are killed during the Helltide, you will lose half of the Abberant Cinder that you were carrying. So if you’re currently struggling to survive during the Helltide, you may want to balance the risk and reward of opening a lower quality chest or saving up for a Gift of Mysteries.
