Diablo 4: What is the Seal of the Second Trumpet?

The Seal of the Second Trumpet is an ancestral, unique ring exclusively designed for the new Paladin class in Diablo 4. The ring rolls with a solid set of stats that increases the Judgement ability of the Paladins while lowering the downtime between skill casts.

Stats of the Seal of the Second Trumpet

• (8.1 - 8.8)% Cooldown Reduction (up to 13.2% with mastercrafting)
• +(2 - 3) to Shining Armor (up to +5 with mastercrafting)
• +(31.5 - 45.0)% Chance for Judgement to Deal Double Damage (up to +67.5% with mastercrafting)
• +(424 - 457) Maximum Life (up to +685 with mastercrafting)

Ranks to the Shining Armor passive increases the amount of damage output and armor you get from equipping unique items.

Nightmare Dungeon

Since the Seal of the Second Trumpet unique ring can drop from any random enemy or loot chest, the best place to farm it is in Nightmare dungeons, which require you to fight against mobs of regular and elite enemies. This high mob density of Nightmare dungeons drastically increases the drop rate of unique items. On completion of dungeons, the reward chest often drops unique items, making dungeon runs worth it.

World events and world bosses

World bosses and events (like Gathering Legions and Helltide events) have a higher chance of yielding unique items like the Seal of the Second Trumpet. Among them, the hourly Helltide events have the highest drop rate for uniques, as you can specifically target chests with a high chance of dropping unique items.

During the Helltides, collect Aberrant cinders and use them to open the following chests:

• Tortured Gift of Jewelry: Rings (costs 75 Aberrant Cinders)
• Tortured Gift of Mystery (costs 250 Aberrant Cinders)

While the Tortured Gift of Jewelry specifically targets rings and amulets, the drop rate is pretty low. On the other hand, the Tortured Gift of Mystery costs much more but offers a much higher drop rate for unique items.

Gamble for rings using Obols

Obols can be accrued randomly while exploring the open world of Diablo 4 and by completing random activities. After acquiring enough, you can spend 50 Obols to gamble for rings at the Purveyor of Curiosities.

The drop rate of uniques is extremely unreliable, making it an extra method for gear farming if you have an excess of Obols.
