The Ultimate Guide to Finding Treasure Beast Barding in Diablo 4

In Diablo 4, players have a plethora of cosmetic options available to them without spending any money. From rare drops obtained by defeating specific named bosses or participating in world events, there are plenty of unique items to be found. One of these rare cosmetics is the Treasure Beast Barding, which can only be obtained by defeating a specific enemy and requires careful monitoring of the World Boss timer. While there are other mount armors available through Stables and PvP events, horse-related cosmetics are often found in Legion events.

What Is The Treasure Beast Barding?

The Treasure Beast Barding is a stunning cosmetic addition for mounts in Diablo 4, boasting an intricate design adorned with an array of weapons and a blend of gold and silver accents. It's believed to symbolize the immense riches and loot that can be obtained from Treasure Goblins. Although equipping the Treasure Beast Barding on your horse won't grant any stat bonuses, it adds a charming touch to your mount's appearance. Interestingly, even a mount without any embellishments such as a saddle, bridle, or defensive spikes will perform identically to one that's been decked out by the player.

Some cosmetics can only be obtained as rewards for completing challenges, such as defeating The Butcher. As a result, these items can serve as a testament to a player's achievements and skill, providing a more meaningful aesthetic difference than randomly generated armor.

How To Get The Treasure Beast Barding Cosmetic in Diablo 4

To obtain the Treasure Beast Barding, players must defeat a specific world boss named Avarice the Gold. These bosses spawn every few hours, but only players in the same zone will receive a notification. To increase the chances of finding the boss, players can use a World Boss Timer. However, since the spawn is random, it's important to hurry over to Avarice when it appears, as it may not spawn again for several days.

The Gold Avarice is akin to a massive Treasure Goblin that carries a Treasure Chest on a chain, while also spawning two Treasure Goblins whenever it is staggered. The coveted Treasure Beast Barding can only be obtained from the boss's item pool or the World Boss Whisper cache, and not from the auxiliary Treasure Goblins. While the precise drop rate for the barding remains unknown, it appears to be fairly scarce, making acquiring it before others in one's clan or circle of friends a point of pride.
