How to Begin Slay Ride to Hell in Diablo 4

Prepare for Action

Treasure Goblin Slay Ride to Hell Event — Blizzard

Starting your adventure in the Slay Ride to Hell event is straightforward. Simply log in during the event period and commence your hunt for Treasure Goblins. As players achieve new kill milestones, rewards can be collected at Goblin Square in Kyovashad, before resuming the hunt. Since this event thrives on teamwork, it’s beneficial to employ strategies for efficiently farming Treasure Goblins, while also accepting that some elusive goblins might escape.

Treasure Goblins spawn at random locations and times, but players can enhance their chances by focusing on specific areas. Locations like Fractured Peaks’ Cellars and Novek’s Treasure Trove appear to have a higher likelihood of goblin appearances. Moreover, Nightmare Dungeons and Greed Shrines are also prime spots for encountering these elusive creatures.

Be mindful that Treasure Goblins are known for their flight instinct, often leading them to dash away from danger. This not only prolongs the chase but also risks attracting other enemies, making it crucial to maintain damage output when engaging these goblins. Continuously attacking a goblin will hinder its escape, increasing your chances of a successful hunt.
