If you want gifts , you ’re gon na have to take them
Even though it ’s a blighted hellscape , Sanctuary is n’t exempt from some holiday cheer . And by vacation cheer , I mean an eternal , freezing winter that spot out the sunshine .
What (and When) is Midwinter Blight in Diablo 4?
Midwinter Blight , a new holiday event coming to Diablo 4 from December 12 to January 2 , will contribute a storm over the Fractured Peaks zone . In this storm , fresh enemies , called Blightfiends , led by the “ Red Cloaked Horror , ” will emerge .
We do n’t know the specifics of how this event will work , but there ’s a new questline that begins in Kyovashad . A currency drop by the Red Cloaked Horror will appropriate the purchase of items and cosmetics back in township .
Diablo 4 Midwinter Blight’s New Cosmetics
We ’re getting fresh back cosmetic for each class during the event , as well as some Modern weapons , which can presumably be purchased with whatever seasonal currency the foe drop :
We ’ll get an article from the devs closer to the event ’s release detailing how precisely it will work , but I ca n’t imagine it being terribly convoluted . The worst - case scenario I can call up of is that the storm in Frozen Peaks will only come at times , but since we ’ve get so many quality - of - life change to limited - time farms , like Helltides , I do n’t think it will be overly restrictive .
This event will hunt down within the Season of stock model , so if you ’re playing a Seasonal character , you do n’t need to do anything particular to get at it . As to whether it ’ll make its way to the Eternal Realm , well .. We ’ll have another guide with the juicy details when the dev clause goes live . Until then , why not check by ourSeason of Blood tier list ?
