- Dedicated Diablo 4 fans finally uncover the mystery of the Lucky Coin with the rare Ring of Misfortune.
- Obtaining the Ring of Misfortune requires all five classes to toss the Lucky Coin into the Wishing Well.
- The powerful ring gives a significant stat boost but comes with a major drawback of potentially losing all resources.
A group of dedicated Diablo 4 fans has managed to find the Ring of Misfortune, by completing the elusive “Wishing Well” event. This achievement marks the end of fan theories regarding the Lucky Coin’s usage, which has lasted almost since Diablo 4‘s release.
Secrets are no stranger to fans of the Diablo franchise, with the famous secret cow level in Diablo spanning multiple titles. For fans of Diablo 4, one of the greatest in-game mysteries was the usage of the rare item called the “Lucky Coin.” The item in question could only be looted by players from the corpse of an NPC that gets killed by a monster during a random world event, while the players themselves are under the effects of the Greed Shrine. Because of this, the item was a rare find and even the requirements for its drop were unknown, much less what it was used for.

Diablo 4 Fans Find the Ring of Misfortune
This achievement marks another rare item found in Diablo 4, and a mystery resolved. The Ring of Misfortune gives a plus 13 to all stats, but comes with a major drawback. It’s not tradeable, and its Lucky Hit is that there is up to a 100% chance of losing all of the character’s Resource. This prompted fans to dare the OP to try masterworking the item, while others theorized that it leads to the cow level in some way.
One thing fans pointed out is the trickiness of the developers when designing the quest. There are five classes in Diablo 4, all of which are needed to toss a Lucky Coin into the Wishing Well one after the other to fulfill the requirements. While this seems straightforward in hindsight, the maximum party size in Diablo 4 is four party members. Players had the last laugh, however, as it seems that the quest could be completed by one player with multiple Diablo 4 accounts.
