Season 5, which has been long awaited by Diablo 4 players, is about to be released. Before that, I believe many players have learned about some fresh changes in the game, such as Classes and Uniques. But not only in these aspects, Season 5 has also made some changes to some bosses.
For example, Beast in the Ice, in previous games, players thought it was very easy to defeat. But don’t take it lightly in Season 5, because it has changed. But what remains unchanged is that the level of Beast in the Ice has always been Level 85, and you can only summon it in World Tier 4.
This guide will show you how to find Beast in the Ice in Season 5 and how to defeat it, so that you can know all the information in advance and get ahead of others!
Location Of Beast In The Ice
As in the previous game, you can still find Beast in the Ice in a Level 85 dungeon called Glacial Fissure. The entrance to Glacial Fissure is on Fractured Peaks, which you can find near its capital, Kyovashad.
How To Summon Beast In The Ice?
It is important to note that you do not need to reset Endgame Boss dungeons in Season 5 to spawn the monster repeatedly. You can just use your summoning materials again in the same dungeon.
In addition, you do not need to craft and use Glacial Fissure Sigils to enter Beast in the Ice dungeon, which will greatly shorten your time and save you Diablo 4 Gold.
Normal Beast In The Ice
If you want to summon Normal Beast in the Ice in Season 5, you need to make sure you have 9 Distilled Fear in World Tier 4. These Distilled Fear can be obtained by completing Tier 30 or higher Nightmare Dungeons.
You will get at least one Distilled Fear in Nightmare Dungeon Tier 30. The chance of Distilled Fear dropping increases every 10 Tiers of dungeons. So you can run these dungeons with confidence and you will definitely collect enough Distilled Fear.
You will get 3 Distilled Fear when you complete Tier 90 Nightmare Dungeons and higher, that’s for sure. In addition, this Diablo 4 Item can also be obtained from World Bosses and activities in Helltides.
Torment Beast In The Ice
Torment Beast in the Ice is a more powerful level 200 version of the endgame bosses in Diablo 4. Although it requires three times the summoning materials of Normal Beast in the Ice, the loot and D4 Gold you get after defeating it will be 5 times that of the normal ones! So take it seriously.
The materials required to summon Torment Beast in the Ice are 27 Distilled Fear in World Tier 4 and 1 Stygian Stone Stygian obtained by completing The Pit within the time limit.
It is important to remind you that these Diablo 4 materials will be used every time you fight the boss, so when you are exploring outside of battle or traveling through Sanctuary, be sure to protect your remaining summoning materials.
After you defeat Beast in the Ice, you will get a Pincushioned Doll as your reward, which will be used when you summon Uber Andariel. So you must do everything you can to defeat Beast in the Ice in World Tier 4.
Battle Strategies And Techniques
In the above, we have learned the importance of defeating Beast in the Ice. Now we need to learn the strategies and techniques to fight it.
First, if you can’t reach 70% Cold Resistance cap, you must bring Potent Elixir of Cold Resistance to increase your cold resistance. In addition, it can also increase your defense against the magic released by Beast in the Ice.
During the battle, you must always hide behind Beast in the Ice, because its frontal slashing attack will cause unimaginable damage to you. Also note that you must avoid standing in the circular ice area in the arena, which will slow you down and make you more vulnerable to damage.
When Beast in the Ice reaches 70% health, it will fly into the air and create a linear ice area on the ground, which you need to avoid as before. During this phase, Beast in the Ice will also spawn multiple waves of normal adds.
After it lands, it will immediately kneel down and summon a star-shaped linear ice area around it, which you also need to avoid. When its health drops to around 30%, Beast in the Ice will rise again and spawn two elite adds outside the ice area.
At this time, what you need to do is to use some ranged weapons or Diablo 4 items to attack them from a distance, so that you can successfully defeat Beast in the Ice while ensuring your own safety.
Beast In The Ice Loot
Good news! Starting from Season 5, all Tormented Bosses have a 7.5% chance of dropping Uber Unique. In the previous PTR, some players found that in the actual game, every time a Tormented Boss is defeated, 5 items will be dropped, and each item has a 1.5% chance of being a Mythic Unique, so the total probability is 7.5%. This is not a big problem.
In addition, all Tormented Boss loot has been dispersed by the developers, so you don’t need to choose a specific Tormented Boss farm for a unique one. Here are some of the loot you can get after defeating Beast in the Ice.
- If you’re playing as a Barbarian, you get Fields of Crimson, 100,000 Steps, Ancients’ Oath, Battle Trance, Hellhammer, and Ring of the Ravenous.
- If you’re playing as a Druid, you get Insatiable Fury, Hunter’s Zenith, Waxing Gibbous, Storm’s Companion, and Unsung Ascetic’s Wraps.
- If you’re playing as a Necromancer, you get Bloodless Scream, Howl from Below, Deathspeaker’s Pendant, Ring of Mendeln, and Mutilator Plate.
- If you’re playing as a Rogue, you get Condemnation, Word of Hakan, Windforce, Eaglehorn, and Beastfall Boots.
- If you’re playing as a Sorcerer, you get Staff of Lam Esen, Esu’s Heirloom, Gloves of the Illuminator, The Oculus, and Starfall Coronet.
Finally, no matter which Class you use, you get Frostburn, Mother’s Embrace, Fists of Fate, Tassets of the Dawning Sky, and Paingorger’s Gauntlets. In addition, Beast in the Ice will also drop two Mount cosmetics that are exclusive to Season 5 – Skull Torch and Binding The Fell Steed.
That’s all about how you can face Beast in the Ice in Diablo 4 Season 5. I hope you can have fun in the upcoming Season 5! Let’s look forward to facing Beast in the Ice in Season 5!
