Bandits are a lucrative enemy type in Diablo 4. They drop some of the game's more sought-after Uniques and are known for generous loot tables when targeted correctly. If your build benefits from Diablo 4 Gold gear that drops from Bandits—or if you're trying to target-farm certain Diablo 4 items—then you need to focus your efforts where they appear most.
- Maulwood
Location: Fractured Peaks
Why It's Great: Maulwood is absolutely packed with enemies. While Bandits aren't technically the main enemy type here, they show up frequently and in large clusters—especially in both objective phases.
Best Use Case: High-density clearing builds (think Sorcerer Chain Lightning or Barbarian Whirlwind) will love this dungeon due to the volume of enemies.
Bonus Tip: Run this dungeon at higher Nightmare tiers to increase the odds of Ancestral and Unique drops.
- Renegade's Retreat
Location: Dry Steppes
Why It's Great: Renegade's Retreat features Bandits as the main enemy group, though the dungeon is slightly less dense than Maulwood.
Best Use Case: If you specifically need Bandit-targeted loot, this one has a more focused enemy composition, making it a great dungeon for targeted Unique farming.
If you're short on Nightmare Sigils for these top two dungeons, don't worry. There are backup options that still get the job done: Maugan's Works and Raethwind Wilds.
- Maugan's Works
Location: Hawezar
Why It's Good: Maugan's Works is often overlooked but features a decent number of Bandits, especially in the second half of the dungeon. It's a solid choice when your best Sigils are on cooldown or unavailable.
Bonus: This dungeon also has decent gold and item drops, making it a two-for-one when it comes to farming Diablo 4 Gold and gear.
- Raethwind Wilds
Location: Scosglen
Why It's Good: It has moderate Bandit representation and isn't overly long, making it ideal for Buy Diablo 4 materials fast clears. Not as effective as the others, but a good fallback.
