Luckily, Wound Drinker is like many Unique items in that it can be target-farmed from endgame activities. Keep reading to learn what activities have the best drop rate for this powerful item, and which builds should prioritize Wound Drinker as their Best in Slot.

Where To Get The Wound Drinker Unique Ring

Wound Drinker Unique Ring Details page

Wound Drinker has a base chance to drop from any activity once the player reaches Level 60 and Torment 1 Difficulty. However, the base chance is pretty small. Instead, players should engage in activities that have higher Unique drop rates, such as:

  • Fighting Lair Bosses
  • Nightmare Dungeons
  • Caches of Items from Dark Citadel
  • Opening Helltide Chests of Mystery

Wound Drinker most commonly drops from monsters in the Demon or Ghost families, so dungeons with these monsters are usually better to focus on.

Target Farming Wound Drinker

While completing the above activities will likely get players a Wound Drinker while also farming other resources, the most time-efficient Target Farm for Wound Drinker is fighting Beast in the Ice.

There is no known benefit to fighting the Tormented version of Beast in the Ice over the standard summon when target farming Uniques. As a result, the standard farm is better because you get more drop chances for the same amount of materials.
