To open a Silent Chest in Diablo IV, carry a Whispering Key and interact with the chest. You can buy a key from a Purveyor of Curiosities for 20 Murmuring Obols, according to gameplay guides published in 2023. Silent Chests are reported to appear randomly around Sanctuary, so listed locations are places to check—not guaranteed spawn points.
How to open a Silent Chest
- Check your character’s inventory for a Whispering Key.
- If you do not have one, buy it from a Purveyor of Curiosities for 20 Murmuring Obols, as reported by Game8’s guide, updated July 19, 2023.
- Interact with the Silent Chest while carrying the key. The guide describes the key as being used on interaction; it does not say you need to equip it separately.
It is useful to carry a key while exploring rather than leave to shop after spotting a chest. PC Gamer’s 2023 guide reports that Silent Chests appear randomly and may not remain available indefinitely. That behavior is guide-reported, not a guaranteed timer for every current patch.

Where to get Whispering Keys
Buy from a Purveyor of Curiosities
Purveyors of Curiosities in settlements, including Kyovashad, sell Whispering Keys for 20 Murmuring Obols each, according to the 2023 guides from Game8 and PC Gamer. PC Gamer associates earning Murmuring Obols mainly with world events. The cited guides are not official game documentation, so check the vendor’s current price in your version of the game.
Silent Chest locations to check
Guides describe Silent Chests as random open-world appearances around Sanctuary, potentially in places where ordinary chests spawn. A fixed route therefore cannot guarantee a chest will be waiting at a particular spot.

- Diablo IV is the next-gen action RPG experience with endless evil to slaughter, countless abilities to master, nightmarish Dungeons, and legendary loot.
- Embark on the campaign solo or with friends, meeting memorable characters through beautifully dark settings and a gripping story, or explore an expansive end game and shared world where players can meet in towns to trade, team up to battle World Bosses, or descend into PVP zones to test their skills against other players - no lobbies necessary - with cross-play and cross-progression on all available platforms.
Hawezar near Backwater Waypoint
Game8’s Silent Chest location guide gives an example in Hawezar, southwest of the Backwater Waypoint. Treat it as a possible place to look, not a confirmed or exhaustive spawn list. The guide also reports that a chest can revert to a regular chest if left too long; it does not establish a universal timer or current-patch rule.

- Carry a key before exploring: this avoids having to return to a vendor if you find a chest that may not persist, as PC Gamer reports.
- Use locations as leads: check suggested areas while exploring, but do not assume a chest will always spawn at the same coordinates.
- Buy only what you expect to use: the cited sources establish a cost of 20 Obols per key, but do not establish an ideal number to stockpile.
The location and persistence details come from guides published in 2023 or with no publication date established here. Seasonal and patch-specific spawn behavior has not been verified against current official documentation.
