Dread Iron.

Dread Iron is a legendary mighty belt that can be found in Diablo 3 and Reaper of Souls. This item can only be worn by the Barbarian and will very seldom be found by any other class.


Dread Iron statsEdit

The belt has no legendary affix but is jam-packed with other affixes. All four Primary slots are taken by inherent bonuses to Strength, Movement Speed, Armor, and Reduces Damage from Elites. The best long term strategy is to enchant the Movement Speed bonus to something more useful, such as All Resistance, Vitality, or a Skill bonus, since MS can easily be made up with Paragon Points.

There's even an extra secondary affix, with Ignores Durability Loss, plus two random secondary affixes as well.

In version 2.1 it was updated to have 5 primary slots and 2 secondary slots.

  • All stats listed in the database scale up to the level of the belt when dropped.
  • See the sample screenshots below to see how this belt will roll at level 70.
