Grim Favours can be redeemed at the Tree of Whispers when 10 have been acquired. These are then turned in for loot and experience.

Complete the associated task and be met with experience, gold, and Grim Favors.

The types of Whispers a player sees on their map rotate frequently, with new ones becoming available throughout the day for you to track. Each Whisper will offer both a different set of rewards and experience for completing it.
