Jump to a Section



Will Drop from Enemies and Chests

Diablo 4 - Runes drops

Mot can randomly be obtained from chests and other activities in the game but we recommend doing activities with high Elite mob density such as The Pit, Nightmare Dungeons, or Kurast Undercity.

Can Be Crafted at the Jeweler

Diablo 4 Vessel of Hatred - Rune Crafting

Crafting three runes of the same type will produce a random rune, allowing you a chance at obtaining Mot. You can craft runes at the Jeweler.

All Jeweler Features

Trade with Other Players

Diablo 4 - Invite To Trade

You can also get Mot by trading with other players. Since the other player will need to select which items to trade, you can use the in-game chat to coordinate which rune or item you wish to trade.
How to Trade

Only Obtainable in Vessel of Hatred Expansion

Diablo 4 - Vessel of Hatred Expansion

Similar to other runes in the game, Mot can only be obtained if you own the Vessel of Hatred Expansion. Players that have the base game and don't own the expansion may purchase it separately to access runes.
