The Beast in Ice used to be one of the most annoying bosses to farm in Diablo 4, mainly due to his boss mat, Distilled Fear, being such a pain to acquire. If you wanted to fight this boss previously, you used to have to grind Nightmare Dungeons and pretty much hope that you'd get some, since it wasn't a guaranteed drop back then.
