+The '''Purveyor of Curiosities''' is the gambling vendor in Diablo 4 and can be found in major towns.  In exchange for Murmuring Obols that you collect completing tasks they will give you a particular unidentified piece of level-appropriate gear which could be normal, <span class="magic">magic</span>, <span class="rare">rare</span>, <span class="legendary">legendary</span> or <span class="Unique">unique</span>.
-The Purveyor of Curiosities is the gambling vendor in Diablo 4 and can be found in major towns
+== How to get Murmuring Obols ==
-This vendor utilises its own [[currency]] to gamble called [[Murmuring Obols]]. The [[Murmuring Obols]] can be acquired from completing events and cleansing shrined and cursed chests in dungeons.
+Murmuring Obols are an account-bound currency that is mostly used for gambling but can also be used to buy Whispering Keys which are used to open Silent Chests.
-Players can choose a specific item slot and gamble for a randomised unidentified item in that chosen slot.
+Murmuring Obols are acquired by:
+* Completing [[World Events]]
+* Cleansing cursed chests
+* Cleansing cursed shrines
+* Drops in Dungeons (as a Mumuring Cache automatically placed in your inventory)
+* Completing [[Legion Event]]s
+* Chests in [[Helltides]]
+* Can drop at the end of [[The Pit|Pit Runs]]
+** Pit Tier 1 - Can drop 52 Obols
+** Pit Tier 50 - Can drop 150 Obols
+** Pit Tier 200 - Can drop 250 Obols
+==How to increase your Max Carrying Capacity==
+Like [[gold]], Obols do not take up an [[inventory]] slot, they are collected virtually in the inventory along with gold. You can see the amount you have when you expand your inventory screen.
+[[File:Murmuring Obols inventory.jpg|alt=Murmuring Obols inventory|center|thumb|Murmuring Obols in inventory]]
+To begin with, the maximum number of Obols you can carry in your inventory is 500, however, this can be increased by earning [[Renown]] and visiting certain [[Altars of Lilith|Altars of Lilith]]. Doing so will increase the Obol carrying capacity by 5 for each Altar and as there are 20 Altars that adds 100 more capacity.  Below is a map showing all the Altars with that reward and the closest Waypoints to help you quickly navigate between them.
+[[File:Altars of Lilith that Reward Obols.jpg|alt=Altars of Lilith - Obols Carrying Capacity|thumb|Altars of Lilith that reward max Obol carrying capacity and the nearest Waypoint to reach them|center]]
+You can add a further 400 to your max carrying capacity by achieving 500 Renown points in each of the 5 zones of Sanctuary (80 Max Obols each).  The Maximum carrying capacity is 2,500.

+File:Obols-carrying-capacity.jpg|See what your Obols carrying capacity is
+</gallery></center><br>
+When you open any <span class='white'>Murmuring Caches</span> the Obols will be added to your total however, if you're at or near your Max you can leave the Caches in your Bag/Stash and open them later. If you have reached your maximum capacity and are rewarded some Obols as loot in an Event you can return to town to spend some of your Obols and the Obols on the ground at the Event location will be there waiting for you to pick up.  Be quick though, they do disappear.
+==Uses for Murmuring Obols==
+=== How to Target Farm Gambling ===
+Gambling will reward you with either Normal, <span class="magic">Magic</span>, <span class="rare">Rare</span> and <span class="legendary">Legendary</span> items so it's a long shot you'll get the exact [[Legendary Aspect]] you are looking for. However, you can improve your chances by focusing your gambling on the cheapest item type that Aspect can appear on. For example, the [[Aspect of Hardened Bones]] can '''only''' appear on a '''Helm''', '''Chest''', '''Pants''', '''Shield''' and '''Amulet'''.  All of those items cost 40 Obols but to gamble on an amulet would cost you 60 Obols so you wouldn't choose that item.
+You'll see on each [[Legendary Aspect]] entry on PureDiablo which items the Aspect can be found on in white text.  Pick the cheapest by using the table below.
+{| class="skillfeatures" style="width:100%;"
+{{:Aspect of Hardened Bones}}
+|}
+===Keys===
+The Purveyor of Curiosities also sells Whispering Keys which are used to open Silent Chests which can be found all around Sanctuary.  When purchased they are stored in the Consumables tab of your inventory.  Simply click on the chest and you will automatically use one of your keys to unlock it.
 == Gambling Costs ==
-{| class="wikitable" style="width:50%; margin: auto;"
-!Item Type
+Every item has a cost and it's the same at each Purveyor.  You can not gamble for things that your class can not use, for example, a Barbarian can not gamble for a Scyth or a Shield and a Necromancer can not gamble for a bow.
