The Essence of Anguish provides powerful effects, and is especially strong on Witch Doctors. (Picture: Blizzard)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\nTo get the Essence of Anguish in Diablo 3 Season 30, the best way is to farm Act I bosses (Skeleton King and The Butcher) on the highest Torment difficulty level you can easily kill them on. <\/p>\n
Alternatively, you can run Greater Rifts, as Rift Guardians have a chance of dropping any of the Soul Shards. However, if you go down this farming routine, you can’t target-farm specifically for the Essence of Anguish. At Greater Rift Tier 75 and above, the chances of getting Soul Shards to drop become much higher.<\/p>\n
Once you get an Essence of Anguish, you can add it to an open gem slot on a weapon only, as with other Lesser Evil Soul Shards.<\/p>\n
Please note: <\/strong>Soul Shards are only available on Seasonal realms and do not form part of the Eternal Realm loot table. You can get Soul Shard drops below level 70, in case you were wondering.<\/em><\/p>\nDiablo 3 Essence of Anguish Powers & Stats<\/h2>\n
