Tortured Gifts of Mystery are in-game treasure chests that you can find scattered throughout the region. Each chest costs 175 Abberant Cinders if you want to open it. And when you do, you can acquire several Legendary and Unique weapons and other rare loot.
Mysterious Chests appear during the Helltide event. However, they don’t all appear at the same time. Helltide periods have a 75-minute delay between each other. During any given Helltide period, only 2 of the Mysterious Chests will be available at any time. However, up to 3 chests can be found in Kehjistan.
If an hour passes and you enter the next hour (for instance, if the time goes from 3:59 PM to 4:00 PM), the previous chests will disappear, and new ones will spawn. This means you can get multiple Mysterious Chests during a single Helltide period if you enter a new hour.
Key Takeaways
- Tortured Gifts of Mystery, or Mysterious Chests, appear throughout Diablo 4 at key points during Helltide events.
- Only 2-3 Mysterious Chests can spawn at any time during a Helltide cycle. They reset with the Helltide cycle and also with the passing of an hour.
- There are 33 Mysterious Chests in Diablo 4, of which five are found in Fractured Peaks.
- Scosglen has eight Mysterious Chests while Dry Steppes and Hawezar both have four Mysterious Chests each.
- Finally, there’s Kehjistan with the highest number of Mysterious Chests, at 12.
- Mysterious Chests contain Legendary and Unique items along with some rare loot.
