Before you can have a chance of getting any Unique items, you need to complete a few steps first. The chance for Uniques to drop depends on the World Tier you’re playing in, and only starts after reaching World Tier 3: Nightmare

To be able to do that, you’ll first need to complete the Cathedral of Light Capstone Dungeon after finishing the campaign. Only then will you be able to increase the World Tier, where Unique items and those of the Sacred variant can drop.

Similarly, World Tier 4: Torment provides a higher chance of Unique drops, and only there will you have a chance to get Uniques with the Ancestral quality.

Helltides

The Mystery chests that you get at the end of Helltide region events are another great source of Unique items. These events are pretty easy to do with other players, making them a worthwhile place to farm Uniques.
