What is Key of Terror in D2R?

The Key of Terror is one of the three "keys" required to open the portal to fight the Uber bosses in Diablo 2 Resurrected. It is obtained by killing Nihlathak, a unique monster found in the Halls of Vaught in Act 5 of the game.

To obtain the Key of Terror, the player must first complete the quest "The Ancient's Way," which requires navigating through the Matron's Den and killing the unique monster, Shenk the Overseer. After completing this quest, the player can enter the Halls of Vaught, where they will find Nihlathak. Upon killing him, he will drop the Key of Terror.

Once the player has obtained all three keys (Key of Terror, Key of Hate, and Key of Destruction), they can combine them in the Horadric Cube to create the Hellfire Torch, a powerful class-specific charm, and gain access to the Uber Tristram portal.

How To Use Key of Terror in D2R?

To use the Key of Terror in Diablo 2 Resurrected, you must first obtain it by defeating Nihlathak in the Halls of Vaught in Act 5. Once you have the Key of Terror in your inventory, follow these steps to use it:
