Unique Effects of Ring of the Ravenous

Rend's duration is increased by 8.0 seconds.
Damaging enemies with your Brawling Skills applies 2 stacks of Rend's Bleed. This can only affect each enemy once every 1 second.

The unique effect of the Ring of the Ravenous allows you to create a synergy between the Brawling Skills and Rend by adding two stacks of Bleed when using Brawling skills to damage targets. This increases the overall damage output of the Rend Barbarian’s Bleed damage.

This ring rewards aggressive gameplay by allowing you to inflict multiple enemies with Bleed without using Rend on them, but it requires you to use Brawling skills.

Run Nightmare Dungeons

Nightmare Dungeons constantly throw enemies and elites at you, making it another efficient way to farm unique items in Diablo 4. They offer a much better loot flow than the outside maps. So if you are farming the Ring of the Ravenous, include Nightmare Dungeons in your farming rotation. Even if you don't get the item you are farming, you might get other unique items and crafting materials.

Helltide events have a high chance of dropping uniques

Participate in the hourly Helltide Events that take place all across Sanctuary. During these events, you can earn Cinders by slaying enemies; once you have sufficient amounts of Cinders, you can use them to open the Tortured Chests of Jewelry to target specific item drops.

Gamble for unique items using Obols

While exploring Sanctuary, you will acquire Obols, which can be used to gamble for specific categories of gear at the Purveyor of Curiosities. This method is RNG-based, and the item rarities range between magic and unique. Even if the drop rate is extremely low, it is still a viable way to acquire some good items.
