How to Get Ancient Puzzle Ring in Diablo 3 – Guide

One cannot simply walk into The Vault.

Accessing vaults to get more wealth in your pocket or getting rare items at your disposal is something that not only sounds too good to be true, but it actually is. And all thanks to one ring to rule them all, one ring to find them, one ring to bring them all, and in the darkness bind them. The thing is that there is more than one ring available in Diablo 3, but chances are that you will have a harder time finding it than Frodo and Sam destroying it. Here is how to get the Ancient Puzzle Ring in Diablo 3.

How to Get Ancient Puzzle Ring in Diablo 3

A Puzzle Ring is a Legendary Ring that you will be able to find across the world of Diablo III. However, it has suffered many changes throughout the years in terms of its functions and how it is used. Nowadays, it is used to summon a Goblin which will drop Rare Items that have 6 affixed. Its counter stays after death, location change, and the unequipping of the ring. Not only that, but you will also be unable to collect common items for crafting. Finally, if you transmute the ring by using the Kanai’s Cube, which destroys it in the process, you will open a one-time portal to the Treasure Realm. It is most commonly known as The Vault. So, it is a great way to become wealthy.

How do you get the Ancient Puzzle Ring you say? Well, just like the normal Puzzle Ring, the Ancient Puzzle Ring is a drop item. You must be at level 29 and above to find it. The bad news is that it can drop from any monster and enemy in the game, anywhere. It doesn’t have any specific drop location. Your best chance to get it is to, well, farm for it, using your favorite farming strategies. You can play Adventure Mode and play in Torment Difficulty. Moreover, you can run Greater Rifts at the highest level possible, which is a challenge more difficult than even Torment difficulty. But, if you are an experimented player, you could get through the Rifts in minutes. Repeating the process will ensure you will get a Puzzle Ring, and hopefully an Ancient Puzzle Ring.

There is also a possibility that, by reforging Puzzle Rings with Kanai’s Cube, you will be able to get an Ancient Puzzle Ring, but reports from users have been less than encouraging. Unfortunately, the best chance you have is to find it in the wild. I wish that the RNG gods shine upon you, my friend.
