Diablo 4 Rifts – Why You Might Never Get That Guaranteed Mythic

Diablo 4’s Mythic Chaos Rifts are extremely rare, but incredibly rewarding. Each one guarantees a mythic item drop. If you spot a rift on the map, make sure to mouse over it and check the description, the word “mythic” will confirm it.

The Problem – Other Players

Yes, these rifts are amazing, but the community has noticed a major issue. If other players reach a rift before you, it can disappear before you even land a hit. You check out a few Reddit posts about it, such as this one:

Many T1 players have reported being “robbed” by faster, high-tier characters who farm lower-tier rifts, making it frustrating to reach these rare mythic rewards.

In crowded Helltides, rifts can feel like a chaotic free-for-all, with multiple players racing to claim the loot first. There is also the rumor that mythic rewards are shared among group members, meaning that in a party, only one person gets one. But from what we know, each player should actually receive their own guaranteed mythic.

If this is true, then teaming up can still be advantageous, not for sharing loot, but for increasing your chances of completing the rift before it disappears.

Redditors have also shared some interesting stats. For example, after running 100+ chaos rifts, one player found just one mythic. This is highlighting just how rare these events are. Meanwhile, the chaotic multiplayer element adds tension. Will you reach the rift in time, or watch it vanish in the blink of an eye?

Tips for Chasing Mythics

• Keep an eye on your minimap, and hover over rifts to spot any mythic ones.
• Consider teaming up. Either way, a party will increase your chances of actually completing the rift.
• Be quick! Speedy characters often claim rifts before you even arrive.
