How to Farm Uniques from Bosses in Diablo 4 (Season 8)

In Diablo 4, players can target farm Uniques, including Mythic Uniques, by defeating specific Lair Bosses. Below, we will cover which bosses drop which Uniques and how to spawn them. You will also find details on cosmetic rewards and links to dedicated guides for each Lair Boss.

Lair Bosses

Lair Bosses are the best way to farm Uniques efficiently. You can fight them from Torment 1 to 4, with higher difficulties offering better chances for Ancestral Uniques. Keep in mind that Duriel, Andariel, and the Harbinger of Hatred have twice the drop rate for Mythic Uniques compared to other Lair Bosses. Belial guarantees an Ancestral Unique drop in his loot, and has the highest Mythic Unique drop chance of all Lair Bosses.
