Diablo 4 Season 3: How to Open Wardwoven Chests

Diablo 4 Season 3 is well underway, and players can now explore all of the new mechanics added to the game. Playing around with the Seneschal Companion has been a highlight of the update, and the new Arcane Tremor events and Vault dungeons are also fun activities to do while leveling up. Vaults, in particular, have been a big talking point within the community, with players debating whether or not the traps and hazards have a place within the game. In this article, we will be going over the reward for avoiding these traps called Wardwoven Chests, which can be found at the end of all Vault dungeons.

What Are Wardwoven Chests in Diablo 4 Season 3?

Wardwoven Chests are one of the new additions added with Season of the Construct. These chests can be found at the end of the new Vaults activity, as a bonus reward for players who were able to complete the dungeons while avoiding many of the traps and hazards. Wardwoven Chests contain many rewards, and opening them will also progress your Seasonal Journey, as it has a couple of tasks that involve them. Here is a list of rewards that can be found within the Wardwoven Chests in Season 3:

• Rare & Legendary Items
• Gold
• Nightmare Dungeon & Vault Sigils
• Crafting Materials
• Governing & Tuning Stones
• Journals of Zoltun Kulle

How to Open Wardwoven Chests in Diablo 4 Season 3

Opening Wardwoven Chests in Season 3 is going to require a certain amount of the Zoltun's Warding status effect. You can gain this effect at the start of any Vault dungeon by interacting with the Statue of Zoltun Kulle. Ten stacks of this buff are going to cost you one Pearl of Warding, which you farm from Arcane Tremors and the regular chest at the end of the Vault dungeons. You will also lose a stack of this status effect every time you get hit by any of the traps and hazards present within the Vaults. This creates a small mini-game of clearing the dungeon while trying to avoid the traps, which will earn you a lot more loot in the end.

Each World Tier will increase the amount of Wardwoven Chests that are present at the end of the Vault. Completing a Vault in World Tier 4 will provide players with one regular chest, as well as three Wardwoven chests, opening all of which will result in a glorious loot explosion. The three Wardwoven chests will cost you a different amount of Zoltun's Warding stacks:

• Regular Chest: Does not require any Zoltun's Warding stacks.
• World Tier 1 & 2 Chest: 1x Zoltun's Warding to unlock.
• World Tier 3 Chest: 4x Zoltun's Warding to unlock.
• World Tier 4 Chest: 10x Zoltun's Warding to unlock.

Playing on the World Tier 4 difficulty will provide you with 4 chests to open, and if you want to unlock all of them, you will need to have 15 stacks of Zoltun's Warding at the end of the Vault. Keep in mind that you can use as many Pearls of Warding as you want if you are not interested in trying to avoid any of the traps. All that matters is reaching the end of the Vault with 15 stacks of the status effect.

That covers everything you need to know about the new Wardwoven Chests in Diablo 4's Season of the Construct. Opening as many of these chests at the end of a Vault dungeon is going to provide you with a satisfying loot explosion that will keep you coming for the rest of the season.
