Honorable Mentions
Before getting into the top 10, here are a few other notable unique items worth pursuing in D2R Season 6:
- The Oculus - Socket this orb with high Diablo 2 Resurrected runes like Um or Pul for massive skill boosts.
- Occulus - Great weapon for Fire Blast or Frozen Orb sorceresses with its + skills and FRW.
- Guillaume's Face - Popular helmet for physical damage characters with its crushing blow and open wounds.
10. Sandstorm Trek
These boots are a mainstay for any whirlwind or frenzy barbarian thanks to offering up to +40% increased attack speed. The magic damage reduction is also appreciated by melee characters. Finding a pair with good defensive stats further boosts their usefulness through Hell difficulty and beyond.
9. The Torches
Whether you find a Necromancer, Amazon, or Barbarian Torch, these provide some of the best all-around stats in the game. The +skills they grant are invaluable for any character and class, and late-game builds absolutely require at least a low torch to reach full power. While pricey to buy, torches are BiS for any character.
8. Verdungo's Hearty Cord
This unique sash becomes an essential item for melee and physical damage characters once two sockets are added. Loaded with two Um runes provides massive boosts to vitality, life, and attack rating. Most popular on martial artist assassins or frenzy/berserk barbarians for dueling.
7. LoH
Considered one of the best runeword weapons, Last Wish grants absurd attack rating bonuses along with deadly damage modifiers. Any physical Amazon, assassin, or smiter becomes almost unstoppable with this massive weapon equipped, making it one of the rarest and most prized items to find or trade for.
6. Grief
Not only is Grief one of the ultimate runeword weapons, but it's also incredibly useful for a variety of build types. The massive damage boost from enhancement along with the Deadly Strike modifier make this a perfect fit for fast-attacking physical characters. Barbs, assassins, and even Paladins are beastly with a Grief in hand.
5. Shako
A essential farming helmet for the power it provides any character at a very reasonable price. The all skills and magic find bonuses make it effective for leveling and grinding from Normal through Hell. Socketing with a P Topaz further increases monster slaying efficiency by boosting vitality. Almost an auto-include in any caster or melee build.
4. Mara's Kaleidoscope
For casters, few amulets can outperform Mara's. The massive mana boost it grants makes spell spamming far easier, allowing faster farming. Combined with +skills, all resists, and magic find, this becomes the go-to amulet for Cold Sorcs, Hammerdins, and other mana-heavy builds.
3. Enigma
All characters benefit greatly from Enigma's teleport ability, making it one of the most desired uniques in the game. Whether for farming efficiency or dueling power, the massive strength bonus along with magic resistance and other stats make this runeword Armour a game changer. However, the high rune cost means Enigma ownership is end-game level stuff.
2. Death's Fathom
For magic-oriented characters, few weapons can outmatch Death's Fathom. The massive +skills make it useful for all types of sorceresses, and a well-rolled version with +3 Lightning Skill adds unmatched power for Lightning builds. Combined with bonus skills, magic find, and damage, this remains a top unique even late into Season 6 and beyond.
1. Hoto
Offering up to +40% faster cast rate and useful resistances, Spirit is the go-to weapon runeword for most non-melee builds. However, Heart of the Oak surpasses it in pure power by adding massive +skills along with increased attack rating, life stolen per hit, and even more resistances. It's the ultimate weapon for Hammerdins and other mana-oriented builds.
Buying or Trading for the Best Items
Finding some of the rarest and most powerful uniques in Diablo 2 can take an enormous amount of luck or grind time. That's where trading with other players comes in - you may have better luck to buy D2R items you want or need, especially early in a new ladder season. Sites like MTMMO allow safe trades between players and provide a large marketplace of available high-end loot. This can help speed up your ability to equip powerful items for reaching end-game content more quickly.
