Season of the Malignant is starting July 20, and Diablo 4 has just revealed all the cool new Uniques and Aspects that are coming to the game with the new update.
There will be a total of six new Uniques added in Patch 1.1 - one for each class, and one generally usable (but incredibly rare!). We will also get seven new Legendary Aspects - two general, and one for each class - all of which can be found in any World Tier.
Patch 1.1 that brings all of these new toys is already live, so you can find these items playing your characters in the Eternal realm. However, note that the Season of the Malignant starts on Thursday (early Friday for EU) - that's when you'll be able to start a new character on the brand new Seasonal Realm!
6 New Unique Items
| Name | Class | Type | Ability |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ahavarion Spear of Lycander | General | Staff | Gain a random Shrine effect for 10-20 seconds after killing an Elite enemy. Can only occur once every 30 seconds. |
| Azurewrath | Barbarian | Sword | Lucky Hit - Your Core Skills have up to a 20% chance to Freeze enemies for 3 seconds and deal 0.75-1.5 Cold damage to them. |
| Fleshrender | Druid | Mace | Debilitating Roar and Blood Howl deal 0.5-1.0 damage to Nearby Poisoned enemies. |
| Lidless Wall | Necromancer | Shield | Lucky Hit - While you have an active Bone Storm , hitting an enemy outside of a Bone Storm has up to a 5-25% chance to spawn an additional Bone Storm at their location. Each of your active Sacrifice bonuses increases the chance by 25% and the total number of additional Bone Storms you can have by +1. |
| Eaglehorn | Rogue | Bow | Penetrating Shot has a 30-80% chance to fire an arrow that bounces off walls and scenery. Hitting enemies from behind with Penetrating Shot will make them Vulnerable for 3 seconds. |
| The Oculus | Sorcerer | Wand | Gain the effect of the Teleport Enchantment for free. When you Evade using Teleport Enchantment, you are taken to a random location. |
Notes
- Ahavarion Spear of Lycander is an extremely rare drop - it's an Uber-Unique that drops only in World Tier 4 starting from level 85.
- The Azurewrath and Fleshrender Season of the Malignant Uniques have flat damage effects, which scale with power. For example, at 820 Item Power, Azurewrath deals between 3359-6718 damage.
