Sells Items of Random Rarities in Exchange for Obols
The Purveyor of Curiosities is a special type of NPC that allows players to exchange Obols for a type of weapon or armor of random stats and rarity. Do note that while you can get Legendary equipment by trying your luck at the Curiosity Vendor, it is not guaranteed that you will get one within the first few rolls.
| Item Type | Cost |
|---|---|
| One-Handed Weapons |  50 Obols |
| Two-Handed Weapons | 100 Obols |
| Off-Hand Weapon (Focus and Totem) |
50 Obols |
| Cap | 50 Obols |
| Tunic | 25 Obols |
| Gloves | 50 Obols |
| Boots | 25 Obols |
| Pants | 25 Obols |
| Ring | 50 Obols |
| Amulet | 100 Obols |
| Whispering Key | 10 Obols |
Obols Have a Max Cap so Make Sure to Spend Them at the Curiosity Vendor
As with any type of currency, the temptation is there to save it for rolls later on. However, Obols in Diablo 4 will have a maximum capacity unlike Gold. Make sure to spend them before hitting max cap so you don't miss out on acquiring more Obols as you explore the open world. The max cap can be increased by raising your Renown.
Sells Whispering Keys to Open Silent Chests
One unique item that players can purchase from the Purveyor of Curiosities is the Whispering Key. These special keys that cost 20 Obols are used to open the Silent Chests you find in the open-world. Much like the items purchased from the Curiosity Vendor, these chests contain a random pile of loot, with a chance to drop Legendaries if you are lucky.
Targeting Legendary Aspects
Purchase Certain Item Types
Each Equipment slot is associated with certain Aspect types, and you can increase the chances of obtaining specific Aspects this way. Below is a list of Equipment types that cost the least Murmuring Obols and have the smallest possible number of matching Aspects.
| Aspect Type | Best Equipment Type to Purchase |
|---|---|
| Offensive | ・Offhand (only rolls Offensive Aspects) |
| Defensive | ・Pants (only rolls Defensive Aspects) |
| Resource | ・Ring |
| Utility | ・Boots (Utility or Mobility) |
