All new Uniques in Diablo 4 Season 5 (known so far)

Diablo 4’s Season 5 is on the way, and that means it’s time to chase down new Uniques. Such equipment is easily some of the strongest gear in the entire game. While the pieces vary in power, and many are built for specific build archetypes, each class has something they’re no doubt going to want to chase down.

During the recent Diablo 4 devstream, it was stated that there were 8 new uniques on the way, and their abilities were displayed in the stream. It turns out, however, that there are quite a few more that are known at this time. At the time of writing (July 24, 2024), 15 new Uniques are coming to Diablo 4 Season 5. That said, whether they become must-have items remains to be seen.

Thanks to changes made in Season 4, it should be easier than ever to farm Uniques in Diablo 4 Season 5. These powerful items used to be quite frustrating to attain, but with improved drop rates, and lower required levels, the hope is that they won’t take forever to unlock. These items can be found in Helltides, from Elites, World Bosses, and in the new endgame content coming in Season 5.

At this time, there are 15 new Uniques, with 5 of them being generic gear that anyone can equip. The others are linked to specific classes, such as The Mortacrux going to Necromancers.

Here is a list of every Unique we’re aware of at this time.

The Mortacrux (Unique Dagger): When consuming a Corpse, there is a chance to also create a decaying Skeletal Simulacrum that seeks enemies but cannot attack. When it dies, it explodes for Shadow damage. This effect is treated as a Macabre Skill.

Rogue Uniques

Shroud of Khanduras (Unique Chest Armor): Casting Dark Shroud makes you Immune for 3 seconds, but your Evade cooldown is increased. Evading while Dark Shroud is active leaves behind an explosion that deals Shadow damage and Pulls In enemies.

The others are in the Infernal Hordes endgame activity loot table. This is also subject to change, whenever Blizzard sees fit. These Uniques can be found anywhere, but the following items have an increased chance to be found after beating the Fell Council bosses in Diablo 4 Season 5:

Crown of Lucion
Endurant Faith
Locran’s Talisman
