Gold and targeted gems from Nightmare affixes

Matching a Nightmare Sigil affix to a Gold or gem shortage makes the dungeon run serve a specific resource goal.

WHERE & HOW TO FARM

Where to farm

Nightmare Dungeons entered with sigils showing Gold Reserve or a needed Gem Reserve affix.

Use this selective route when your available Nightmare Sigils include a resource affix you need. Gold Reserve supports Gold farming, while gem-specific reserve affixes let you focus a color. The route depends on what appears in your inventory; it does not create a missing affix. Read each sigil before using it, then finish the dungeon to claim its rewards.

GET STARTED

How to farm

Before you go

  • Access to Nightmare Dungeons and usable sigils.
  • A specific Gold or gem-color shortage.
  • A build able to complete a matching dungeon.
  1. Open your sigil inventory and inspect each Nightmare Sigil’s affixes.
  2. Identify whether Gold or a particular gem color is your priority.
  3. Choose a sigil with Gold Reserve for Gold, or the matching color-specific gem affix when available.
  4. Use that sigil and enter its dungeon.
  5. Complete the dungeon objectives and required encounter.
  6. Collect the payout and inspect remaining sigils for another match.

Farming tips

  • A color-specific gem affix is more focused than a broad Gem Reserve affix when you need one color.
  • Use a sigil with manageable affixes so you can finish and collect the reward.

Repeat, collect and use

Repeat while matching sigils are available and the resource remains useful. This is a selective farm; not every sigil carries a matching affix.

Common mistakes

  • Using a sigil without reading it: confirm the reward affix before entry.
  • Choosing broad Gem Reserve when one color is the goal: prefer that color’s specific affix if offered.
  • Continuing after the shortage is solved: use later sigils for a different goal or change activities.

When to stop or switch

Stop when the planned Gold or gem need is covered, or when no matching sigils remain; resume when another suitable sigil becomes available.
