Best ways to farm Primal Chaos in WoW Dragonflight

Unlike other reagents in previous expansions, Primal Chaos is primarily found through drops and reputation rewards. The wide-spanning reagents can be obtained by players for completing a variety of tasks, though Primal Chaos specifically is rarely guaranteed to drop.

Primal Chaos from Expedition Scoutpacks & World Quests

Players can first obtain Primal Chaos through Expedition Scoutpacks, which are earned by increasing their renown with the expansion’s major factions, namely the Dragonscale Expedition. World Quests are another way players can guarantee that they obtain the reagent since world quest rewards will be posted on the map.

Primal Chaos from Completing dungeons

Completing Dungeons of any difficulty, including normal, Heroic, Mythic, and Mythic Plus, will reward players with several items, though players are not guaranteed to receive Primal Chaos through this method. The essential item can also drop through World Bosses and Raid Bosses once you’re strong enough to face off against Dragonflight’s hardest foes.
