A Diablo 4 player just shared a surprising discovery on Reddit! They got a Mythic Chest for completing a Nightmare Dungeon, something most players skip.
The original post is definitely telling you to make sure you complete the Nightmare Dungeons when you farm for Chaos Rifts, since many players usually leave once their Rifts are done to save time. Turns out, that extra minute at the end might actually be worth it.
A Rare Reward for Full Completion
The player reported receiving a Mythic Chest upon finishing the dungeon, and that is an extremely rare drop!
Other players joined in the comments, saying that doing the Nightmare Dungeons when they are Whispers, and also completing the events inside of them, can increase your chances to get an actual Mythic.
It does not increase the drop chance, but it just opens up more content where you have a chance to get one. Once thing is sure, it is definitely not a myth, and you can really get Mythics from Dungeons! However, the drop rate is still much lower than with other content, such as Lair Bosses, so do not expect to get a Mythic every two Dungeons. If you do, it might be time to play the lottery.
So, Should You Complete Them?
If you are farming Chaos Rifts and speed is your goal, it is still faster to skip. But if you want to boost your chances at a Mythic reward a little bit, it might be time to start actually finishing your Nightmare Dungeons.
At the very least, you will walk away with a bit more gold, materials… and maybe a shot at that shiny Mythic item.
