Diablo 2 Resurrected SOJ Farm Guide - Best Place, Magic Finding, Class To Farm Stone of Jordan Ring

In this guide, we are questing for the legendary Stone of Jordan Ring which is a super useful ring (plus 1 to all skills, increase maximum mana 25%, and even a bonus 20 to mana). This very powerful end game ring can actually surprisingly be found in the mid-game actually and that's the best place to look at it. Here we are going to talk about different places and the best way to look for the Stone of Jordan. Let's jump into it now. 

1. Best Place & Game Mode To Farm SOJ Ring

Andariel is always the best spot to farm SOJ rings with the highest chance in D2R runes of dropping the Stone of Jordan, she is the act 1 boss found at level four of the catacombs. In order to find Andariel, what you should do is: grab a wall, and stick to that wall and follow the wall along. This is the easy way to find your way through the catacombs level two, level three, then on to level four where Andariel is found. 

This is where things have been updated with Diablo 2 Resurrected, the Andariel quest bug no longer works that being said it never worked in the first place quite as it was thought to work. 

With the quest bugged on Andariel, in normal, it would have a probability of 1:3813 chance of dropping the Stone of Jordan ring; in nightmare difficulty, it would have a 1:8800 chance of dropping the Stone of Jordan rings. But the point is that in Diablo 2 Resurrected both the quest Andariel and the normal in Andariel have the same probability of dropping the Stone of Jordan which happens to be the same probability as the quest bugged Andariel. So you could say that every Andariel in Diablo 2 Resurrected is a quest bugged on Andariel, but other people have said that this was actually always intended by the developers that Andariel was always meant to have a higher probability of Diablo 2 runes dropping loot, it's just that sometimes she got bugged to not have that higher probability unless you quest bugged her, so we are not exactly sure what the facts are on that, but in Diablo 2 Resurrected you do not need to quest bug on Andariel anymore, you still get the same probability of loot drops. 

Nightmare Andariel has the best chance of dropping the Stone of Jordan with a 1:3800 probability compared to Hell Andariel which has 1:6400 probability and Normal Andariel has no chance of dropping the Stone of Jordan, that is because in hell difficulty you will encounter a wider variety of unique rings that can drop from Andariel. So basically in nightmare difficulty, you narrow the field of possibility in terms of what can drop and thus increase your chance of what does drop being a Stone of Jordan.

2. Best Magic Find Percent For Farming SOJ Ring

The next part of this equation is your magic find. At 1% magic find, you will have a 1:3777 probability; and at 200% magic fin, you have a probability of 1:1808; at 400% magic find, you have a probability of 1: 1509. The sweet spot is actually right around one in three hundred or three hundred percent magic find, you don't get a lot more when you bump up to 400 magic find and that is because of the diminishing returns on magic find for unique set and rare items. So the maximum actual percent chance of improving your unique magic find is actually only 200%, so if you stack a 1000% magic vine, you're actually only getting a 200% better chance of finding D2R runes. So around 300%-350% magic find is where you want to be for farming SOJ.

3. Best Class To Stack Up Magic Finding For Farming SOJ Ring

Your best class for Andariel's magic finding is of course the sorceress, because of her teleport. Let's look at the sorceress really quickly and see how to stack up around 300 magic find:

• - You would definitely want to find one of the grand charms - Gheed's Fortune which can roll up to 40 vegemite better magic find and as low as a feeble miserable 25. 

• - You will also need a Blade of Ali Baba or a Gold D2R Dagger that will give you right around 100 additional magic find for the gold dagger or 1% per level for the Blade of Ali Baba, you can also socket that with a couple of jewels or east ruins. 

• - You'll also want some chance guard gloves and some more traveler boots, additionally, it would be good to wear a nice gold wrap belt that's also very helpful.

It is easy to create a character with nice decent magic find, now go to create a game in nightmare difficulty, head on over to the catacombs level 2, teleport your way down to catacombs level four, kill Andariel and repeat 1600 times give or take, and now you should have your SOJ.If you need to buy cheap D2R magic daggers online, Aoeah.com is a reputable store you can trust!
