Diablo 4 Paladin Players Should Drop Everything and Farm for this Season 11 Unique Immediately

When gearing up for the endgame, Diablo 4 players will likely want to farm for key Uniques to take their build from solid to unstoppable. The release of the Paladin in Diablo 4 Season 11 adds a brand-new crop of Uniques tailored specifically to support the class’s tanky playstyle. With a few standout build options for the Paladin in the Diablo 4 Season 11 meta, players should make farming the game’s best Paladin Unique a top priority to complete what is one of the class’s most broken builds.

The unexpected announcement and subsequent release of the Paladin for those who pre-purchased the upcoming Lord of Hatred expansion left players with little time to plan out their builds. Although the Paladin of Diablo 4 looks very similar to the class’s iconic Diablo 2 version, with an emphasis on passive Auras and the “board and sword” weapon archetype, the lack of knowledge of the class’s Uniques meant many players were jumping into the new season without a clear build in mind. Now that the dust has settled on Season 11 and the Paladin, it’s clear that the best Unique for Diablo 4 Paladins this season is the Argent Veil, since it can supercharge an already overpowered mechanic.

A major part of the Paladin’s mechanics is the Oaths system, which allows the class to lean into a particular playstyle with bonuses for specific types of skills. In particular, the Paladin’s Disciple Oath is an incredibly powerful choice for most of the class’s best builds, such as the classic Hammerdin Paladin and Blessed Shield Paladin builds. The key to unlocking these builds’ full power is adding the Argent Veil into the mix, which makes it a must-have Unique that Paladin players will want to start farming as soon as possible.

What Makes the Argent Veil Such a Powerful Unique in Diablo 4 Season 11

Argent Veil Unique Ring
- +[1-2] to Core Skills
- +[107-121] Strength
- +[489-526] Maximum Life
- +[40.0-50.0]% Vulnerable Damage
- Unique Affix: Arbiter’s Evade triggers a random equipped Core Skill for every 2.0 meters traveled. Core Skills deal [40-60]%[x] increased damage during Arbiter’s Evade and for 4 seconds after.

The Argent Veil is all about powering up the Paladin’s Core Skills, which makes it perfect for builds that put these skills at the forefront. Blessed Hammer and Blessed Shield are both fantastic skills to pair with this Unique, since both hit multiple times and can use the damage boost from this Unique Affix to quickly dispatch hordes of enemies.

The Argent Veil has a chance to drop from Lair Bosses Varshan and Duriel, so players farming for this Unique will want to target these bosses.

Argent Veil Makes the Paladin’s Arbiter Form Even More Broken

On its own, the Paladin’s Disciple Oath is a powerful tool in this Diablo 4 class’s kit, as it allows the Paladin to adopt the Arbiter form for 4.5 seconds after using a Disciple Skill with a cooldown. While in this Arbiter form, the Paladin’s Disciple Skills deal 50% increased damage. When upgraded to Disciple’s Halo, Blessed Hammer becomes a Disciple Skill, which allows it to benefit from the Arbiter form’s damage increase.

With the Argent Veil, casting Evade while in Arbiter’s form triggers a random equipped Core Skill every 2.0 meters traveled. This means players can essentially get a free cast of skills like Blessed Hammer or Blessed Shield as the move. With Blessed Hammer upgraded to Disciple’s Halo or another Disciple Skill equipped, players can continuously enter the Paladin’s Arbiter form, then simply Evade to spam Core Skills and mow down enemies without having to worry about precision aiming during Diablo 4 Season 11.
