Unique jewelry can be gambled in Diablo II, except in patch versions 1.07 and 1.08. Different unique rings were added in various patches, as sorted below.

Ring graphics are randomly selected, and do not tie to any particular ring. There are lots more ring graphics found on the game CD, and it's unknown why Blizzard never enabled more of them, or gave any of the unique rings unique artwork.

Unique Ring Odds

These apply to v1.10+. Prior to v1.07 in D2C, the three unique rings dropped in a set order. See below for more details.

Unique Rings	Qlvl	Rarity
Nagelring	10	15
Manald Heal	20	15
Stone of Jordan	39	1
Dwarft Star	53	10
Raven Frost	53	10
Bul Kathos' Wedding Band	66	1
Carrion Wind	68	3
Nature's Peace	77	3
Wisp Projector	84	1
Total:	84+	59

The "Rarity" odds assume that the monster dropping the ring is capable of dropping every unique ring in the game. Hence, if a monster able to drop the Wisp Projector drops a unique ring, there is a 1/75 chance it will be the Wisp Projector.

If the monster's Mlvl isn't high enough to drop some of the rings, the rarity odds change accordingly. For example, an Mlvl 40 monster could only drop the first three rings, so it would have a 15/31 chance to drop Naglering, 15/31 to drop Manald Heal, and 1/31 to drop the Stone of Jordan, vs. the 1/59 chance that a unique ring from an Mlvl 84+ monster will be an SoJ. This is why it's best to hunt for some items (such as the Stone of Jordan) on lower levels.

Unique Rings

Rings found in D2C and D2X.

Unique Rings in D2X Only

Rings found in D2X only, v1.07+.

* The Contricting Ring is not and never has been droppable. We have it listed on our Unique Rings page, and the ring's full stats are listed in the game files, but it has a 0, instead of a 1, in the "completed" column in uniqueitems.txt, the actual game file that sets the properties on Unique items, which makes it undroppable.

v1.10 and Later

Unique rings found in D2X, v1.10+.

Item Name	Misc Stats	Special Properties
Carrion Wind	Item level: 68 Clvl req: 60	+(100-160) Defense vs. Missiles (6-9)% Life stolen per hit Poison Resist +55% 10% Chance to cast level 10 Poison Nova when struck Level 21 Poison Creeper (15 Charges) 8% Chance to cast level 13 Twister on striking +10% of damage taken goes to mana

Ring Generation Order in D2C

In D2C, prior to v1.07, the game always dropped the three unique rings in a preset order:

Nagelring > Manald Heal > Stone of Jordan

This meant that if the game generated a Unique ring, from a monster drop or gambling, it would always be a Naglering, if there was not already a Naglering in that game (previously dropped or possessed by one of the character). If there was a Naglering, then a Manald Heal would drop. If both, then a Stone of Jordan would drop. If all three, then the ring would sprawn rare instead of unique.

This was easily exploited, and characters soon learned to carry a Manald Heal and Naglering in their stash, so any new unique rings would drop as the very valuable Stone of Jordan.

-Rarity is expressed as items per 1000 items of that type, e.g. The Stone of Jordan is listed at 18.9/1000. This means that out of 1000 unique rings dropped that were high enough level to be The Stone of Jordan, 18.9 would be, on average. Expansion odds are listed.

+In D2C, prior to v1.07, the game always dropped the three unique rings in a preset order:
 * Nagelring > Manald Heal > Stone of Jordan
-If the game determines to drop a Unique Ring, it checks to see if a Nagelring is in the game or has already been generated in that game. If not, one will always drop. If there is a Nagelring, it does the same check for a Manald Heal, and will drop one unless there is one in the game or already generated in that game. If so, it performs the same check on the Stone of Jordan. If all three are in the game, a Rare Ring will be generated.
