News Tag: Diablo 4 Uniques

This Campfire Chat about the game content of Diablo 4 Season 9 was held on May 22, in which some new game content such as skills and items, as well as improvements, which are expected to meet many players on July 1, were announced, which made all players very interested in it.

Although Diablo 4 Season 9: Sins of the Horadrim is one of the three Borrowed Power seasons in the roadmap released by the developer at the beginning of the year, Spellcraft system added here is very worth looking forward to by players. It will allow players to obtain some Uniques that can be used to cast spells, which are not available in previous seasons.

According to Campfire Chat and some published information, each class will have a dedicated new Unique in Season 9. Although there are no Uniques or Mythic Uniques for all classes in this D4 season update, the following new items will change the gameplay of most character builds in a subtle way.

It’s worth reminding you that the item potencies and stats shown here are based on Season 9 PTR that will probably be released on May 27. They may change as the season approaches, so everything is subject to final release.

1. Hooves Of The Mountain God - For Barbarian

In the past few seasons, Barbarian has been a tepid player in Diablo 4, as it has strong survivability, but its slow movement speed makes it unsuitable for combat that requires high mobility. But with the addition of Hooves of the Mountain God, things may be changing.

Not only does it bring some movement speed, basic attack speed, Fury generation efficiency, and Belligerence skill level gains to this slow character, it also provides some unique effects for frequently used basic skills: when you have the most Fury, all basic skills will slash and deal 70%-100% additional damage.

For players who are keen on Barbarian builds with Bash as the core skill, no matter how many Diablo 4 Gold you need to spend on this boot, it is worth your effort to get it, because with its help, those enhanced basic skills are enough to quickly defeat early game enemies.

2. Noxious Spine-Breaker - For Druid

After the developers added some skills and exclusive items for Druid that can cast poison damage effects in the last season of Diablo 4, the number of players exploring with this class has increased significantly compared to previous seasons.

Seeing this, the developers seized the opportunity and added a Noxious Spine-Breaker Two-Handed Mace in Season 9, which not only increases the subsequent damage to enemies that have been damaged by poison, but also increases the possibility of Pulverize’s new damage effect to the enemy.

Every ten seconds, Pulverize will create a puddle, and its damage effect for 6 seconds is equivalent to 200%-400% of the poison damage in the entire build.

Most importantly, it will also indirectly reduce your resource consumption. Of course, if you have enough gold coins in stock, it is highly recommended that you invest some in it to get a higher chance of Pulverize causing damage twice.

3. The Hand of Naz - For Necromancer

When The Hand of Naz appeared in the public eye, players said they did not understand the developer’s operation: Why does an item specially built for minion building need to sacrifice its own minion?

In fact, the ultimate purpose of this unique glove focusing on the damage, mastery level, attack speed and maximum health of the Skeletal Mage is to allow loyal players who have experienced multiple seasons of Diablo 4 to get rid of those Skeletal Warriors and Golems that are not very useful.

For each minion sacrificed, you can get an additional Skeletal Mage. And when it attacks the enemy 25 times without casualties, it will upgrade to a Skeletal Arch-Mage, which will teleport to a safe area when attacked and when its attack is broken by impact, it will cause 50%-100% additional damage to the target, up to three targets.

From what the developers have described, The Hand of Naz is perfect for builds that have Bone Prison, Iron Maiden, and Decrepify abilities, so they can use the Skeletal Mages you cast to create a wave of attacks that can level everything.

4. Deathmask Of Nirmitruq - For Rogue

While the competition for the best helmet in Diablo 4 is fierce, as they all provide very useful buffs to players in different aspects, such as Andariel’s Visage, which can give you very solid defensive capabilities.

But in Season 9, the helmet you should choose for Flurry Rogue build is Deathmask of Nirmitruq, because it increases the level of this skill by 2-3 levels, and the buffs to your movement speed, armor and maximum health are very considerable.

Most importantly, it can maximize your Flurry skill: you will no longer be restricted when casting this skill. When you are low on energy, it will consume 10% of your health, but in the process your damage ability will increase by 30%-50%, and your attack speed will also increase by 50%, and it will last for 5 seconds.

Although this helmet allows Flurry, an offensive skill, to be cast for a longer time, it still cannot be cast if you are low on energy and health. So make sure you max out your build’s health and energy generation by spending D4 Gold before using this item.

5. Ophidian Iris - For Sorcerer

The Conjuration Fire spell Hydra made Sorcerer one of the most popular classes in the first few seasons of Diablo 4, so it was only natural that Ophidian Iris would be able to increase the levels of the glass cannon’s elemental resistance, intelligence, critical strike chance, pyromancy damage, and devouring blaze.

Not only that, but this Amulet can also add two heads to the three-headed Hydra, and deal 50%-100% more damage. Honestly, I can’t wait to see the giant Hydra smashing a screen full of enemies and scattering loot and Diablo 4 coins.

6. Balazan’s Maxtlatl - For Spiritborn

Among many Spiritborn builds, the most popular one may be the Thorns Spiritborn build, so the developer added a pair of Balazan’s Maxtlatl pants that can increase the damage and defense capabilities of the build at the same time.

It will not only increase the level of Bastion skill, maximum health and Dexterity, but also make your melee attack cause 200%-300% more damage than before, and the poison damage you cast is the same as Thorns you cast.

Here is a new construction idea for you: if you combine this Balazan’s Maxtlatl with Razorplate Unique Chest Armor, you will get a double damage build with super thorns effect and poison effect, so that you can defeat some enemies or bosses that are not resistant to these more quickly.

These are Uniques for each class that have been confirmed to be added in Diablo 4 Season 9 Sins of the Horadrim and their specific effects. In any case, the developers have spent a lot of time updating each season of Diablo 4, and are also actively listening to players’ opinions and suggestions on the game content, so the new seasons to be released later are worth looking forward to for all players. I wish you a happy game!

As April 29, the release of Diablo 4 Season 8 draws near, players are increasingly anticipating it, and one of the most concerning things is probably the tradition of each new season, what Uniques and Legendary Aspects will the developers add to the game.

The developers recently released a new announcement on this issue, stating that six different Uniques and six different Legendary Aspects will be added in this upcoming season, belonging to the six existing classes with different play styles.

In order to give you a clearer understanding of their effectiveness in Diablo 4 Season 8 and how they will affect your exploration in the future, this guide will give you a detailed introduction to the new items that each class has. However, it should be noted that since the new season has not yet been released, the statistics or properties of the items may change, and everything is subject to the final release.

For Barbarian

The developers wanted to enhance the damage capabilities of this already very powerful Barbarian class, so they added a new Bane of Ahjed-Den Unique Gloves, which can increase your build’s critical damage by 114%-150% and increase your Fury generation by 7-10 points per second.

Not only that, Mighty Throw skill you put in the build will increase by 4-6 levels, and every 12 seconds of combat, your next Mighty Throw will detonate a pulse, causing unpredictable fire damage to the enemy. In addition, when this glove is equipped, the cooldown time of all your skills will be reduced by 8%-12.5%.

With the help of this Unique, the shortcomings of Barbarian build’s poor offensive capabilities that were previously criticized by players will be solved. If you pair this item with the newly added Aspect of Delayed Extinction for this character, the damage of both Mighty Throw and Steel Grasp will be increased by 125%-250%.

For Druid

As the only class in Diablo 4 with two forms, there is surprisingly only one Gathlen’s Birthright Unique Helm in Season 8, but the potency and affixes it brings may make it more popular with players who prefer a build with strong attacks and solid survivability.

It will allow your character to use Nature Magic to deal 200-400 critical hits to enemies in human form, and will give you Anima of the Forest for 15 seconds, which adds a fixed 15% buff to your movement speed in your build and grants you Perfect Storm and Earthen Might Key Passives.

But even if you don’t spawn Anima of the Forest, you’ll move 17.5%-23% faster in human form, and your Willpower will increase by 10.5%-15%, all of which will make this seemingly clunky class more mobile. Additionally, the increased armor value of 224-296 gives you more Diablo 4 Gold headroom to invest in mobility and damage capabilities with this type of build.

Druid’s new Unique looks to make its survivability and mobility stronger, so in order to ensure balance, the developers have created an Aspect of Impending Deluge for it, which doubles the chain attack targets during the Storm Strike, and increases the damage of other skills to these target enemies by 30%-50% for 6 seconds.

For Necromancer

Necromancer’s ability to summon minions and high spell damage made it one of the most popular classes in the first few seasons of D4, and the new unique two-handed sword, Sanquivor, Blade of Zir, is expected to maintain its top spot.

It will increase the chance of your minions to deal double damage by 32%-50%, and this damage will cause the enemy to be affected by Vampiric Curse. Although Vampiric Curse is very soul-consuming in Necromancer builds, now minions will contribute one soul for each corpse they devour, which can be stacked up to 20.

Not only consumption, these undead armies can also cast souls from Vampiric Curse in other combat situations, which will increase the damage you deal by 15%-25%. The rest of the affixes and effects are very conventional, such as increasing Intelligence by 214-242 and increasing maximum health by 1,060-1,142.

Since this two-handed sword also increases the level of Skeleton Warrior Mastery, Skeleton Mage Mastery, and Golem Mastery by 2 levels, the advice here is to place it in difficult boss encounters as much as possible, and maximize the effectiveness of each affix by using D4 Gold.

For Legendary Aspect, Necromancer has Aspect of Service and Sacrifice, which makes Skeleton Warriors explode on death and deal with 200%-300% physical damage to nearby enemies. And when Skeleton Warrior loses 25% of its health per second in combat, the damage taken by Skeleton Mages is reduced by 90%, and the damage caused is increased by 50%-100%.

For Rogue

Although Rogue has a smaller player base in Diablo 4, the developers have also brought a Band of Ichorous Rose Unique Gloves with powerful effects, which will increase your Maximum Poison Traps by 4 and give Poison Traps a 18.5%-27.5% chance of casting twice.

Not only that, Poison Traps will also gain some benefits from combo points and have no cooldown in Inner Sight. These effects and affixes will make its poison damage stronger. Coupled with the 10.5%-15% increase in attack speed, Rogue is very likely to become a powerful character who kills people invisibly in S8.

Aspect of Contamination, a new item available to Rogue in the new season, will also give Poison Traps some benefits: an explosion will occur when triggered, causing 150%-250% poison damage.

But if you are dealing a critical hit at this time, the poison damage will be increased by 20%-40% and last for 5 seconds. In addition, Rogue’s maximum poison resistance will also increase by 3%-5% with the help of Band of Ichorous Rose, and the regular poison resistance will also increase by 41.5%-55%.

For Sorcerer

Sorcerer has always been very popular with players who focus on freezing elemental damage, so I believe that after the new Hail of Verglas Unique Helm enters the game, they may have a very big surprise, because your build’s maximum life will increase by 10.5%-15%, and your maximum ice resistance will increase by 7.5%, and the regular ice resistance will increase by 50%.

These are all efforts by the developers to get Sorcerer out of the label of glass cannon. With such high survivability and flexibility, you can use your powerful damage to eliminate large groups of enemies and efficiently earn Diablo 4 Gold.

As for Ice Shards skill, which is essential in Sorcerer build, this helmet also enhances it: it will increase the level of this skill by 4-6 and allow it to generate 2 additional fragments. After causing some damage to the enemy in the current period, the damage you can cause in 5 seconds will increase by 1-1.5%, up to 50%-75%.

On the other hand, Shivering Aspect, the new Legendary Aspect that Sorcerer will have in Season 8 Belial’s Return, will increase the damage taken by the enemy by up to 35%-55%, and increase the freezing effect you cast by 15%.

For Spiritborn

Although Spiritborn class was weakened in Diablo 4 S7, it did not prevent it from becoming the most suitable class for novices to try in the minds of players. So in order to allow novice players to get familiar with the mechanics of this game faster, the developers added a Sunbird’s Gorget Unique Amulet, which will increase your resistance to all elements by 30%.

In addition, Spiritborn build has a 16%-25% increase in movement speed, so that novice players can have better survivability and higher flexibility to explore Sanctuary more healthily. At the same time, your Potent, Furnace and Acceleration levels will increase by 2-3 levels.

When you use Storm Feather, a firestorm will form around you for 8 seconds, and it will cause 200%-400% fire damage every 0.2 seconds. If you pick up 5 additional Storm Feathers in a row, the intensity of this firestorm will increase by 100%, but the duration will not be refreshed.

Not only that, the new Rip and Tear Aspect of this class can increase the Rushing Claw skill by 10%-30%, and will provide you with some enhancements based on the number of charges you have when you cast it, such as restoring 15% of your maximum health, guaranteeing super damage, or guaranteeing a critical hit.

Although the delay in the release of Diablo 4 Season 8 Belial’s Return has made many players unhappy, the appearance of these new items may make players who had previously thought of giving up this interesting game return to the game and look forward to competing with Belial Boss that appeared in Diablo 3. I wish you a happy game!

In Diablo 4 Vessel of Hatred, the new Spiritborn class has a wide selection of unique gear. These gear not only include unique gear designed specifically for the class, but also cover other Uniques and Mythics already in the game. Based on the overall strength of the gear and how it is used in player builds, we’ve recommended the following 10 best Uniques for you.

1) Harlequin Crest

Harlequin Crest is undoubtedly a surprise for Spiritborn class. The only build that cannot use it requires a very special helmet as a replacement. Harlequin Crest not only provides 20% damage reduction and +4 ranks in all skills, but also provides top of Cooldown Reduction, more health, +Maximum Resource, and Armor.

It is definitely one of the top gear in terms of overall performance. To get this top gear, players usually need to invest a lot of time and effort, or they can choose to use Diablo 4 Gold to speed up the process.

2) Tyrael’s Might

Tyrael’s Might is an obvious choice in Diablo 4 and is one of the best items in the game as long as you keep your health at full. This armor fires a divine barrage when your health is full. Additionally, it provides 20% damage reduction and increases Movement Speed, All Elemental Resistance, and +Maximum Resistance to All Elements. This is a very solid tanking armor with durability that does not decrease.

3) Ring Of The Midnight Sun

Ring of the Midnight Sun is a brilliant piece of equipment for Spiritborn, as it increases Dexterity, Fire/Lightning Resistance, +Ranks of Mirage, and Critical Strike Damage, which are very beneficial for the fast-paced Spiritborn class.

Additionally, with this ring equipped, you automatically gain +10% Dodge chance even if you don’t have any skill ranks, and deal at least 80% more damage to enemies whenever you dodge their attacks at close range. This damage increases with rank.

4) Harmony Of Ebewaka

Harmony of Ebewaka provides significant buffs to Spiritborn. Your primary Spirit Hall selection will cause all of your skills to be converted to Spirit type. In addition, this helmet will also do the same for your secondary Spirit Hall selection.

It not only increases Velocity, Movement Speed, but also increases All Stats, and Damage Reduction. Skills also gain 10%-30% bonus damage for each Spirit type possessed. The size of these buffs depends on the player’s skill set.

5) Rod Of Kepeleke

Rod of Kepeleke significantly buffs Spiritborn Core Skills. Not only does it increase ranks of Velocity, chance for Core Skills to hit twice, Critical Strike Damage, Block Chance, and Maximum Resource, it also converts all Core Skills to Basic Skills and makes them free to cast, but deal reduced damage based on Vigor consumption.

Although it requires some strategy and planning to maximize its potential, its powerful effects are still impressive.

6) Temerity

Temerity can provide a strong survivability for Spiritborn. It adds a Lucky Hit chance to heal, increases the amount of healing received, reduces damage when healthy, and increases Maximum Life. Although it does not have much armor, it does a good job of keeping the character healthy.

When the healing effect exceeds 100% of life, Temerity will provide a barrier equivalent to 40%-100% of maximum health for 8 seconds. In addition, Healing Potions can be used at full health to set up a powerful barrier to protect yourself in an emergency.

7) Nesekem, The Herald

Glaive is a new weapon type for Spiritborn in Diablo 4. For this reason, Mythic Unique weapon Nesekem came into being. It provides a +200 bonus to all stats, increases Maximum Life, increases Critical Strike Damage by 250% and Overpower damage by 450%, and deals 400% more damage to Elites.

While you have it, you will also randomly mark nearby enemies every five seconds. These targets are vulnerable, and attacks against them will always be Crit and Overpower. If you hit a marked target 10 times, it will clear the mark.

8) Sepazontec

Sepazontec is a superb weapon for Spiritborn, especially for Centipede players. This powerful staff not only increases the chance to double damage with Basic Skills, but also increases ranks to Follow Through and gives Basic Lucky Hit Chance. Additionally, it increases Dexterity, which is extremely beneficial for Spiritborn.

While using Sepazontec, the damage output of Basic Skills is increased by 25%-50%, and the effect will also trigger three times for every three casts. For example, the third cast of Centipede Basic will cause a blast effect in a wider area, and this effect will happen three times in a row. Therefore, utilizing Sepazontec can cause a lot of damage in a short period.

9) Rakanoth’s Wake

Rakanoth’s Wake is a noteworthy pair of boots. Not only are they good-looking and durable, but they also significantly increase your combat efficiency. When wearing them, your attacks will reduce Evade’s Cooldown by 1.5 seconds, allowing you to maintain high agility.

Besides providing All Elemental Resistance, these boots also increase Movement Speed ​​and Cooldown Reduction, which is especially valuable for Spiritborn. In particular, they provide +57-75% Non-Physical Damage, which is an excellent stat across multiple builds.

10) Jacinth Shell

With Jacinth Shell, you gain Damage Reduction, Life on Hit, Maximum Life, and ranks of Endurance when you take damage. When you consume Vigor, you also heal 1%-10% of Maximum Life. However, your active Cooldowns consume 10% Maximum Life, and you are constantly losing life and need to constantly recover life by dealing damage. It’s a very cool concept.

These Uniques give Spiritborn class powerful capabilities, making it a very competitive choice in Diablo 4 Vessel of Hatred. Therefore, these pieces of gear are absolutely must-haves for Spiritborn players who are looking for excellence. Besides the above unique equipment, Giveaway channel in IGGM discord will also release some other Diablo 4 Uniques giveaway information, so you can be more active in the discord group.

In the current Diablo 4 Season 5, a ton of new Uniques have been added that can provide you with various power-ups and make your battles easier. In addition, all Uniques have been reworked to make their Affixes more powerful and have more useful statistics.

So how do you farm these powerful Uniques in the game? This guide will introduce you to several relatively simple methods that will allow you to obtain Uniques faster. Furthermore, this guide will also compare it with Mythic Uniques, helping you quickly choose the most suitable items for you.

How To Farm Uniques?

Opening Treasure Chests During Helltide Event

Since Season 4, Helltide has become the easiest way to get Uniques in the game, because you don’t need to sacrifice the rest of the quest progress. In addition, the latest patch has changed the time when Helltide spawns, and it will spawn once every hour, so when you reach World Tier 3 and World Tier 4, Helltide is your first choice for getting Uniques.

But you need to pay attention that these treasure chests in Helltide cannot guarantee that Uniques will be opened every time, so run Helltide as much as possible, so that your chances will increase. In addition to getting Uniques, you can also pick up some materials for summoning bosses during the process of running Helltide, which is very worthwhile.

Defeat Uber Bosses

Another way to collect Uniques quickly is to defeat Uber Bosses. Although summoning Uber Bosses is subject to some material restrictions, Uniques rewarded to you are worth it, especially in World Tier 4, because Uniques here are all high-level and high-strength.

Run Infernal Horde

I believe you have experienced the new end-game mode in Diablo 4 Season 5 - Infernal Horde, in which you can fight forces of hell to collect enough Aether. After you defeat Fell Council, you can take that Aether and redeem it for multiple Legendaries and Uniques.

This may seem like a lot of work, but this method gives you a slightly higher chance of getting Uniques than defeating Uber Bosses or Helltide chests, and they are all higher level. In addition, you can also get some rare weapons and a lot of Diablo 4 Gold while running Infernal Horde.

Run Nightmare Dungeons In WT4

Similarly, running or completing Nightmare Dungeons will give you a chance to get some Uniques, but if you want to get what you want in this method more effectively, you need to upgrade Paragon Glyphs. It should be noted here that running Nightmare Dungeons takes a lot of time, so the best way is to run Nightmare Dungeons and Helltide at the same time. In this way, you will get the highest return from both methods.

From Purveyor Of Curiosities

Since the last few patches, Purveyor of Curiosities has provided you with some Uniques and its regular randomized wares. If you find exploring too much trouble, you can bring your Diablo 4 Gold here to get Unique gear you need.

Farming Specific Enemy Types

For Unique gear, you can also farm specific enemy types. This method can be done while running Nightmare Dungeons, as there are many enemy types in Nightmare Dungeons.

However, it should be noted that this method will be very time-consuming, even if you are running Nightmare Dungeons at the same time. But you can rely on this method to learn some strategies for fighting different bosses, which is something that you can’t do in other ways.

Found In Whisper Caches

Now Tree of Whisper’s Whisper Caches can also provide you with Uniques! Although the chance is low, you shouldn’t ignore it, as it provides you with Uniques of higher levels, numerous crafting items and Diablo 4 Gold, making it a very rare but highly rewarding event.

Differences Between Uniques And Mythic Uniques

Uniques Are High-level Items With Exclusive Effects

Unlike Legendary Items in the game, Uniques are rarer and drop with fixed Aspects and Affixes. These Aspects and Affixes will help you make your build better and make you invincible in battle.

Uniques Drop In Each World Tier With Different Rarity

In the latest game, Uniques can drop in every World Tier. But Uniques in World Tier 1 and 2 will have lower Aspects and Affixes. In World Tier 3, there will be Sacred version with better Aspects and Affixes, and in World Tier 4 there will be the best Ancestral version. You can choose the corresponding World Tier according to Aspects and Affixes you need.

Mythic Uniques Are Super Rare Items With Powerful Effects

Compared to ordinary Uniques, Mythic Uniques are rarer because they have more powerful Aspects and Affixes. But you can get them in the game through target farming. For example, you have a chance to get a Mythic Unique after defeating King of Maggots Duriel.

Currently in Diablo 4, there are only 7 Mythic Uniques: Doombringer, Grandfather, Ahavarion Spear of Lycander, Andariel’s Visage, Harlequin Crest, Ring of Starless Skies, Melted Heart of Selig, which shows how rare it is.

If you have a better way to get uniques, join IGGM Discord and discuss with many players. You will also have a chance to participate in the lottery and win lots of gold and Duriel materials. The results will be officially declared on August 19th.

The above are some farming methods for Uniques in Diablo 4 Season 5, as well as comparisons with Mythic Uniques. I hope you can collect all Uniques on Season 5 as soon as possible, and I wish you a happy game!
