All Diablo 4 Unique items and how to get them
Diablo 4 Unique items are some of the most powerful pieces of gear you can get in the game, enhancing your class abilities, or providing strong secondary effects as with the Unique items that can be equipped by all classes. But with great power comes a greatly decreased drop rate, and it’s pretty rare to wrangle one of these special items, especially a Sacred or Ancestral variant.
One good way to get Unique items can be during Helltides or as part of Nightmare Dungeons, even if they are a little strange to unlock. Either way, here’s every Diablo 4 Unique item, plus the best ways I’ve found of farming them in the game. If any more show up, I’ll be sure to add them to the list.
How to get Unique items
Unique items drop as potential loot once you get to Nightmare and Torment world level. You can get them in dungeons, events, and from Helltide chests, but the two best ways I’ve found are as rewards at the end of Nightmare Dungeons, and for doing world bosses on Torment world level. I’ve gotten loads of Uniques from Torment world bosses, and the advantage of doing Torment level activities is you have a chance to get Ancestral Unique items, which are even better than the Sacred Unique items you can get from Nightmare.
Sometimes you’ll get a Unique item from a Nightmare Dungeon as its fixed reward once you complete it, so it’s well worth pushing forward with them and trying to raise your tier if you’re trying to get all your class Uniques. Also, make sure you have a couple of spare spaces in your inventory when you complete a Nightmare Dungeon, since it seems like these items are lost if there’s nowhere for them to go.
