Diablo 4: 10 Most Powerful Weapons & Gear You Must Find

Roll, roll and roll again.

Diablo 4 hasn't been with us very long, but players are already figuring out what's overpowered at the upper levels of the game. Necromancers, Rogues and Sorcerers are at the top of the pile of the strongest classes, with all three boasting an array of skills and builds doing the rounds online.

And, when it comes to pairing up these with the best items and weapons in the game, things become even more mouthwatering.

Diablo 4 houses a number of different unique items that have been specifically designed as the most powerful pieces of gear a player can own.

Spawning with incredible rarity and only at the highest difficulty levels, these items have their own names, designs and the ability to completely dominate how a character build is defined, thanks to various unique traits.

They may take hundreds upon hundreds of hours to find, but these weapons and pieces of armour offer the most meta-breaking Diablo 4 experience (so far).

10. Blood Artisan's Cuirass

The Blood Artisan's Cuirass is a unique piece of chest armour that can only be equipped by Necromancer builds. The item gives players 875 armour, but its power comes from just how versatile it is, be it offensive or defensive. The Cuirass works especially well in synergy with Blood Orbs, improving damage output (4.5-8%) and healing (6.5-10%) whenever you pick one up.

The item's unique ability allows players to summon a free Bone Spirit whenever they pick up 5-10 Blood Orbs too. The Bone Spirit will then deal bonus damage depending on their life percentage. For a skill that would normally consume all of a player's Essence, this represents an incredible amount of value.

This is one of those RPG items that once a player picks up, they'll never take off. Not only does it look absolutely incredible, nailing the bloodily terrifying vibe of the Necromancer, but its effects are so well-rounded, few pieces of gear are considered an upgrade.

In order to get it, players should brave World Tier 4's Torment difficulty and begin grinding through Nightmare dungeons, which should produce two items of at least Legendary value, with this hopefully being one of them.
