Rage of Harrogath in Diablo 4: How to get, unique effects, affixes, and more

The Rage of Harrogath is a unique chest armor in Diablo 4 that can only be equipped with the Barbarian class, which is known for a direct playstyle that can equally inflict and absorb large amounts of damage from enemies. Typically, one will associate the armor with its defensive capabilities, but its ability to cause bleed-type damage, in particular, sets it apart.

Any form of bleed damage in Diablo 4 can be extremely overpowering when utilized correctly. It allows you to damage bosses and ignore them for a while, but the enemies keep losing health due to the constant bleed effect. It’s for the same reason why the Rage of Harrogath is so high on the wishlist of many players. While the equipment is pretty effective by default, you can improve it with the correct build.
