Astaroth boss Location
Astaroth can be found as the final boss of the Escalating Nightmare Dungeon chain.
Step-by-Step Guide to Finding Astaroth:
1. Obtain a Sigil: You need an Escalation Sigil, which drops from the Great Horadric Cache at the end of a Horadric Strongroom event.
2. Run the Dungeons: Open the Escalation Sigil from your inventory and complete the dungeon sequence. Astaroth awaits at the end of the chain.
3. Beat the Boss: You will fight him mounted on the Amalgam of Rage. Once the Amalgam drops to low health, it will submerge to regenerate while Astaroth fights on foot. Defeat him before the Amalgam revives.
