The Tree of Whispers caches in Diablo 4 are an excellent way to stock up on powerful gear and fill out your build. However, you need to make a choice to actually get the best gear - so, what should you choose?

While each cache at the Tree of Whispers in Diablo 4 will offer different rewards based on the name, you should usually pick the Greater Collection caches as they offer a guaranteed Legendary item

Every time you offer 10 Grim Favours to the Tree of Whispers, you will get the choice of three caches. These are randomly generated and can be Normal or Greater Collection caches.

There is a chance that you will get a Legendary from a Normal Collection, however, it is not guaranteed. The only reason really to choose the Normal Collection is if you are looking for a specific type of gear.

Most collections will tell you which item type it contains, like a Collection of Gauntlets, or a Collection of Two-Handed Weapons. You are guaranteed to get an item of the type shown, so if that type of item is what you need for your build, you might want to roll the dice with that collection.

If there are no Great Collection caches to choose from, you'll just need to select the Normal cache that stands out the most. You'll still get some solid gear, and the extra gems, gold, and materials are worth the Grim Favor cost.

In short, the Tree of Whispers is repeatable as often as you like. As soon as you cash in your Grim Favours for a cache of items, you can immediately set about gathering more Grim Favours for another one. There is no time limit, you do not have to wait for a reset to do it again.

If you are looking at the bounties currently available and are unimpressed by them, you can wait for those to change. Typically, the bounties reset every hour and a half, so you can wait it out for a fresh batch.
