Act 5 ▫ Dungeon
Icy Cellar
The Icy Cellar is a compact square-shaped dungeon off Ancient's Way in Act 5. It became alvl 85 in Patch 2.4, gaining full drop potential. The zone features Evil Urns that spawn additional elite packs, the Super Unique boss Snapchip Shatter, and a Gold Chest. However, dangerous monster types like Souls and Stygian Dolls can spawn here.
Why Farm Here
As an alvl 85 zone with no Fire immunities, fire-based builds find this particularly attractive. Evil Urns function like chests that also spawn elite packs when opened, effectively increasing the zone's density. Ghost-type monsters that spawn here have elevated rune drop rates.
Farming Tips
- No major Fire immune spawns — good for fire builds.
- Evil Urns spawn elite packs when opened. These add loot but also danger.
- Souls and Dolls can appear. Bring max Lightning Resistance and sufficient health to survive Doll explosions.
- Snapchip Shatter is always present as a Super Unique with guaranteed drops.
- More dangerous than The Pit or Ancient Tunnels. Bring a well-geared character with Enigma and Infinity for best results.
