Complete Nightmare Dungeons

Completing Nightmare Dungeons is a reliable way of obtaining Distilled Fear. As of Season 6 completing a Nightmare Dungeon guarantees atleast 1 Distilled Fear drop. It's best to do this activity with other party members that aim to beat The Beast in the Ice.

Open Helltide Tortured Gifts

Distilled Fear can be obtained from any Tortured Gifts found in the Helltides on any Torment difficulty, particularly from Mystery Chests.

Drops from Blood Maiden and Hellborne

You can also acquire it by defeating the Blood Maiden in any Torment difficulty. Look for an Accursed Ritual during Helltide and offer 3 Baneful Hearts to summon her.

Complete Legion and World Boss Events

Distilled Fear can be acquired as rewards upon completing Legion and World Boss events in any Torment difficulty. The drop rate for Distilled Fear is quite high, but the downside is that the events are time-gated.

Elites on Nightmare Dungeon

Elites found inside Nightmare Dungeons have a chance to drop Distilled Fear. Try to clear the entire dungeon of any events that spawns a lot of Elites to make the most out of your runs.

Defeating Treasure Goblins

Killing Treasure Goblins that you encounter throughout the map also has a chance to drop Distilled Fear. However, due to the rarity of these Treasure Goblins, this method is not the most efficient way to farm for boss materials.

Season Journey Reward Caches

You can also receive a variety of boss summoning materials by opening the Cache Rewards from completing the Season Journey. This will give you a ton of materials, so make sure not to skip this, as it can help you obtain the necessary uniques you need to progress your character as you prepare for the endgame.
