Mantle Of Mountain’s Fury: Affixes & Unique Effects
Mantle of Mountain’s Fury is a Unique Barbarian’s Chest Armor that revolves around Hammer of the Ancients (HotA). The 2-6 additional ranks of HotA are hard to beat out as a BiS for any build utilizing the ability, but the real damage comes from triggering Earthquakes immediately before casting HotA.

The Best Way To Farm Mantle Of Mountain’s Fury Unique Chest in Diablo 4
The Mantle of Mountain’s Fury is a Unique Item, which means it is most effectively farmed via endgame bosses, Infernal Hordes, or the Purveyor of Curiosities. In the case of this particular Unique Chest Armor, players will want to target farm it from The Beast in the Ice.
How To Summon The Beast In The Ice
The Beast in the Ice can be summoned at the Glacial Fissure found just outside Kyovoshad. To do so, players must be in Torment 1 or higher. They must also have 12 Distilled Fear to sacrifice. Farming The Beast in the Ice at the highest possible World Tier increases the chances to receive Mantle of Mountain’s Fury, as the boss drops more items at higher tiers.
How To Farm Distilled Fear
The Farming of Boss Summoning Materials has changed a bit since Season 7’s launch. While players looking to farm large amounts of Distilled Fear can still focus on Nightmare Dungeons, it can now also be farmed using a Tribute of Titans in Kurast Undercity, or by opening Tree of Whispers Caches (especially the new cache of Boss Materials that occasionally pops up).
Due to the ease of farming Grim Favors in the Season of Witchcraft using the new Headhunting zones, this is currently the most efficient activity for Distilled Fear.
