How to Get Bitter Infection

Appears Randomly on Legendary Gear

Diablo 4 - Aspects

Aspect of Bitter Infection has a chance of appearing randomly on Legendary item drops. We recommend farming Dungeons, World Events, and World Bosses if you want to get this Aspect.

When trading Obols for Legendaries at the Purveyor of Curiosities, Offhands are the best item type to select to farm for Aspect of Bitter Infection as they only cost 40 Obols and can only have Offensive Aspects.
