Unique Rings and Unique Amulets in Diablo 1 and Hellfire.
Unique jewelry in Diablo isn't very good, compared to the better rolls on magical jewelry. Uniques are mostly worn by low level characters, or for some special purposes. Several of the rings and amulets are only found in Single Player, where they are granted as the reward for various quests.
Scarcity:
Due to a bug, it's almost impossible to find multiple Unique items of the same type (such as rings) in Diablo I or Hellfire. When the game rolls a Unique Ring/Amulet, it will always choose the same one to drop first. Thus every Unique Ring in a Diablo 1 multiplayer game will be the Ring of Engagement. Only in Single Player is it possible to find the 2nd, 3rd, etc rings, and only if one unique ring (or two, or three) has already dropped in that game.
Quality:
Magical rings with good stats are better than any of the Unique Rings, especially for end game characters.
- The infamous Ob/Zod or Obsidian Ring of the Zodiac is not a unique ring. It's just a magical item with "Obsidian" (+30-40 All Res) for the prefix and "of the Zodiac" (+16-20 to all Stats) for the suffix.

Hellfire Unique AmuletsEdit
All the uniques found in Diablo can also be found in Hellfire. These are uniques that can only be found in Hellfire.
Auric AmuletEdit
This item is given by Lester the Farmer as a reward for the Farmer's Orchard quest. When equipped, it allows up to 10,000 gold (5000 is the max in Diablo) to be carried in each inventory space.
Item: Auric Amulet
Qlvl: N/A
Availability: SP and MP, Hellfire only.
- Enables up to 10,000 gold per inventory space.
Acolyte's AmuletEdit
This amulet seems amazing, but it turns out to be largely a novelty. A Sorcerer would easily bump 450 or 500 points to his health, but since he benefits so much more from Mana Shield, it's not clear why he would want to. Barbarians and Warriors, who could use the added hit points, don't generally have enough mana to make this item viable. Rogues and Monks and Bards can gain 150 or more life, but will cripple their spell casting in the process.
Item: Acolyte's Amulet
Qlvl: 10
Availability: SP and MP. Hellfire only.
- 50% of base mana transferred to Health
Amulet of WardingEdit
A very poor man's Obsidian amulet.
Item: Amulet of Warding
Qlvl: 12
Availability: SP and MP. Hellfire only.
- +40% Resist all
- -100 Health
Hellfire Unique RingsEdit
All the uniques found in Diablo can also be found in Hellfire. These are uniques that can only be found in Hellfire. Most of these rings are unfindable in multiplayer and almost unfindable in single player, due to a bug in the item generation routine. See the Uniques main page for more details.
Gladiator's RingEdit
The converse of the Acolyte's Amulet, and about as useful. Can be helpful to mixed build characters who wish to greatly increase their mana if they're going to play in spell casting mode, for instance.
Item: Gladiator's Ring
Qlvl: 10
Availability: SP and MP. Hellfire only.
- 40% of base life transferred to Mana
Ring of MysticsEdit
When magic resistance is a must, and fire/lightning are irrelevant. An all witch level, for instance.
Item: Ring of Mystics
Qlvl: 8
Availability: SP and MP. Hellfire only.
- +60% Magic Resistance
- -30% Fire Resistance
- -30% Lightning Resistance
Ring of ThunderEdit
When lightning resistance is a must, and fire/magic are irrelevant. Since lightning is so much less damaging in Diablo and Hellfire, it's hard to see many situations when this would be necessary. Levels with lightning mages and melee attackers, perhaps.
Item: Ring of Thunder
Qlvl: 8
Availability: SP and MP. Hellfire only.
- +60% Lightning Resistance
- -30% Fire Resistance
- -30% Magic Resistance
Giant's KnuckleEdit
When strength is the answer. Can be useful to melee characters who have enough to/hit that they won't miss the 30 dexterity.
Item: Giant's Knuckle
Qlvl: 8
Availability: SP and MP. Hellfire only.
- +60 Strength
- -30 Dexterity
Karik's RingEdit
Good for a huge hit points bonus, especially for Warriors and Barbarians, who gain more hit points per magic point than the other classes.
Item: Karik's Ring
Qlvl: 8
Availability: SP and MP. Hellfire only.
- +60 Vitality
- -30 Magic
Ring of MagmaEdit
When fire resistance is a must and magic/lightning are irrelevant. Level 16, for instance.
Item: Ring of Magma
Qlvl: 8
Availability: SP and MP. Hellfire only.
- +60% Fire Resistance
- -30% Lightning Resistance
- -30% Magic Resistance
Mercurial RingEdit
Good for a huge boost of to/hit and armor class. The loss of strength will cost all chars but the Rogue a lot of damage.
Item: Mercurial Ring
Qlvl: 8
Availability: SP and MP. Hellfire only.
- +60 Dexterity
- -30 Strength
Xorine's RingEdit
An exceptionally useful ring for every character but the Sorcerer, simply to boost magic levels to assist in spell book reading.
Item: Xorine's Ring
Qlvl: 8
Availability: SP and MP. Hellfire only.
- +60 Magic
- -30 Strength
