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. But with great power comes a greatly decreased drop rate. It's pretty rare to wrangle one of these, and its more rare to find a Sacred or Ancestral variant. And it's even more rare to find one of the seven "Uber Unique" items.
One good way to get Unique items can be during Helltides or as part of Nightmare Dungeons, plus Blizzard added some endgame bosses in the Season of Blood that allow you to farm Uniques. 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—most recently, I added the new Unique items for the second season, plus info about targeting farming Unique items with endgame bosses.
How to get Unique items
Unique items drop as potential loot once you get to Nightmare and Torment world tier. You can get them in dungeons, events, Grim Favor caches, 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 tier. Another decent method is summoning the ancient elites using the three altars at the centre of the Blood Harvest event by spending Blood Lures. Once you get to Nightmare and Torment world tier, you'll be able to get Sacred and Ancestral Unique items as well.
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.
If you're looking for something specific, it's worth noting that you can now target farm Unique items with endgame bosses. Check out our Diablo 4 boss loot table if you want to know who drops what.
Uber unique items
Although they're still classified as Unique items, Diablo 4 has seven "Uber Unique" items with an incredibly low drop rate, like so low that it's still unclear how many people even have them. Each of them drop at item power 820, can be equipped by any class, and, just like any other item in the game, the stats on them change based on what level you get them.
According to Blizzard, these ultra rare Unique items drop anywhere you can get a regular Unique, and they can drop from enemies who are level 85 and up.
To increase your chance at getting one of these, you should run Nightmare Dungeons at tier 31 and above so you can either get a drop off of the level 85 enemies or through the final reward. Since the Season of Blood launched, there's also increased chance for Uber Uniques to drop from the endgame Duriel boss you can access in Torment world tier.
There were six Uber Uniques when Diablo 4 launched, and a seventh was added in patch 1.1.0a. Here are all seven of Diablo 4's Uber Unique items, which are also marked with a ⭐ in the tables below:
- Doombringer (one-handed sword)
- The Grandfather (two-handed sword)
- Ring of Starless Skies (ring)
- Andariel's Visage (helm)
- Harlequin Crest (helm)
- Melted Heart of Selig (amulet)
- Ahavarion Spear of Lycander (staff)
