Clear Chaos Rifts
As of Season 10, the best way to farm Nightmare Sigils is by clearing Chaos Rifts. These rifts can spawn randomly between Helltides and Infernal Hordes, and can only spawn in Nightmare Dungeons if they have the Chaos Rifts affix.
In order to clear Chaos Rifts, you will have to eliminate all the Chaos monsters that spawn and eventually destroy the portal to seal the rift.
Initially Earned by Completing Whispers of the Dead
The quickest way to get your first Nightmare Sigils is by completing Whispers of the Dead bounties, as the Grand Caches they provide have a high chance of dropping Sigils.
You can unlock Whispers of the Dead bounties by finishing its respective Priority Quest after completing the campaign, granting you access to the Tree of Whispers.
Frequent Drops Inside Nightmare Dungeons
After obtaining your first few Sigils from the Tree of Whispers, the best way to farm more Nightmare Sigils is through Nightmare Dungeons. Monsters in Nightmare Dungeons have a moderate chance of dropping Sigils of equal or higher tiers, so take down as many as you can while completing Dungeon objectives.
Crafted with Sigil Powder at the Occultist
You can also get Nightmare Sigils of varying tiers by crafting at the Occultist. You would need to use Sigil Powders and Gold to craft Nightmare Sigils.
How to Salvage Nightmare Sigils
Salvage Sigils at the Occultist
Aside from crafting sigils, you can also salvage them at the nearest Occultist to get Sigil Powder, which can then be used to craft other sigils. It's best to salvage a sigil with an affix that won't favor your current goal or build.
What Are Nightmare Sigils?
Consumables That Open Nightmare Dungeons
Nightmare Sigils, formerly known as Dungeon Keys, are consumables that, once activated, open and transform their title's corresponding Dungeon into a Nightmare Dungeon.
They also limit the number of allowed revives in Nightmare Dungeons and feature positive and negative Affixes, which are various modifiers that affect the Nightmare Dungeons they open.
