Diablo 4 World Boss spawn times & location

Here's what you need to know about Diablo 4's World Bosses

Diablo 4's World Bosses provide you with changes to get your hands on some of the best loot in the game. However, they are not always active, usually due to having been killed some time prior. Plus, these bosses have a lengthy time before they respawn. Here are the Diablo 4 World Boss spawn times and locations so you can prepare for each fight ahead of time.

All Diablo 4 World Boss spawn times

Diablo 4 features three World Bosses:

  • Ashava the Pestilent
  • Avarice, the Gold Cursed
  • Wandering Death, Death Given Life

While you may expect these three bosses to spawn on a set timer, that is actually not the case. However, there does seem to be a time window of every four to six hours, where one of them will spawn somewhere within Sanctuary. Note that this isn't an exact time, as there is no in-game indication of a World Boss spawn. However, due to the nature of the game always being online, calculated measures have narrowed the spawn rate to the mentioned time above. This does mean you'll still need to be on the lookout for a spawn, even if you're within the timeframe. It isn't exact, after all.

All Diablo 4 World Boss spawn locations

World Bosses in Diablo 4 can spawn in a few different locations. While each one has at least one unique spawn location, they generally overlap due to the fact that only one can be active at a time:

  • Ashava the Pestilent - The Crucible, Fields of Descration, Caen Adar, and Sarann Caldera
  • Avarice, the Gold Cursed - Seared Basin, Fields of Descration, Caen Adar, Sarann Caldera
  • Wandering Death, Death Given Life - The Crucible, Fields of Descration, Caen Adar, Sarran Caldera

Before heading over to a World Boss location, note that they can deal huge amounts of damage very quickly. Be sure to be somewhat geared so you do not get one-shot by their attacks in the unlikely chance you become their target. This isn't to say that these encounters are difficult, but still, getting one-shot sucks.
