Making use of your elemental skills and spells as a Sorcerer inDiablo 4will make sure that no demon army will stand between you and your precious loot. Whilecertain Sorcerer builds make use of Lightningas its main elemental damage type, the use of Fire and its explosive abilities provides some of the most powerful builds in the game.
In the case of Fireball Sorcerers, the Gloves of the Illuminator Unique will make sure that every single Fireball you cast will deal explosive results. Thankfully, getting Unique items is not as difficult of an activity as it was originally whenDiablo 4launched, but there are certain places you’re able to visit or certain enemies you can face to increase your chances of getting them and benefiting from their effects. Today’s guide will go through the many methods you can use to farm and get the Gloves of the Illuminator Unique.
How to Get Gloves of the Illuminator Unique in Diablo 4
To get the Gloves of the Illuminator Unique, you and your Sorcerer must get toWorld Tier 3 or World Tier 4inDiablo 4. While drop chances are very low, you may start opening chests or defeating enemies in the hopes of finding the Gloves of the Illuminator. However, you can also try and complete World Events such as Gathering Legions or beating World Bosses to get a better chance at getting them. The same applies to Nightmare Dungeons, so use Sigil Powder to craft Nightmare Sigils.
The methods above will drop the Gloves of the Illuminator randomly, but if you wish to focus farm them, you can choose to face two different Uber Bosses inDiablo 4: Grigoire, the Galvanic Saint, and The Beast in the Ice. The Gloves of the Illuminator are part of both bosses' loot pools, so as long as you have enough summoning materials, you can continue to face them until the Gloves drop. Check the table below to learn what you need to collect before your boss fights:
Glacial Fissure, Fractured Peaks
Tormented versions of Uber Bosses provide the best drop chances of them all, but will also be among the hardest fights you can find inDiablo 4. Not only that, butgetting Stygian Stones requires The Pit completions, with The Pit being a particularly hard endgame activity on its own. Level up your character to the max and bring some friends along with you to farm Tormented Bosses and you will eventually find the Gloves of the Illuminator Unique in your inventory.
