Specific character classes in Diablo 4 will need to use more creative ways to mitigate incoming damage to ensure survivability. Barbarians and Druid don't have this problem, but Rogues certainly need some extra protection that, thankfully, their skills are perfect at providing. Boosting that protection will be a great way to make a powerful character out of your Rogue, and some Unique items help with that.
That is where the Shroud of Khanduras comes into the equation, providing immunity from incoming damage and also having an explosive effect — to the detriment of your enemy's well-being. This guide will focus on the many ways you can get and farm the Shroud of Khanduras Unique chest armor, but be prepared to complete old and new endgame activities in Diablo 4.

How To Get Shroud Of Khanduras Unique In Diablo 4
Since the Shroud of Khanduras Unique is one of the 15 different Unique items introduced in Diablo 4 Season 5, then the best way to farm and get the Shroud of Khanduras is to run the Infernal Hordes wave-based activity. To unlock it, you must complete the seasonal questline named "The Eyes of the Enemy," which will reward you with your first Infernal Compass, which will open up the portal to the Infernal Hordes.
The specific farming method in the Infernal Hordes in Diablo 4 is to open lots of Spoils of Equipment or Spoils of Greater Equipment chests at the end of the Infernal Hordes activity. You will need Burning Aether to open these (20 and 60, respectively), which act as currency for the Infernal Hordes. During each wave, you'll need to defeat a set number of enemies to trigger Aetheric Events, which will summon powerful enemies. Defeating these will grant you Burning Aether, which you will spend once defeating the Fell Council bosses at the end of the activity.
To increase your Burning Aether income, use Abyssal Scrolls — dropped from Spoils of Materials chests after completing the Infernal Hordes activity — to upgrade your Infernal Compasses. Higher-tier Infernal Compasses will trigger harder versions of the activity with more powerful enemies, but also more waves — and therefore, more Burning Aether.
Spoils of Greater Equipment chests only appear in Tier 3+ Infernal Compasses in Diablo 4.
If you wish to farm the Shroud of Khanduras Unique elsewhere in Diablo 4, open chests and defeat enemies in World Tier 3 and World Tier 4, or attempt to get it by completing endgame activities such as defeating World Bosses, completing Gathering Legions, or successfully running Nightmare Dungeons. Finally, facing Grigoire, the Galvanic Saint, will give you a better chance of getting the Shroud of Khanduras, since it is part of his loot pool. Tormented Grigoire — which needs Stygian Stones to summon — provides the best drop chances of them all.

Shroud Of Khanduras Unique Effect & Affixes In Diablo 4
If your Rogue equips the Shroud of Khanduras Unique chest, you will become Immune for 2 seconds after casting Dark Shroud, but it increases your Evade cooldown by 9 to 3 seconds. However, if you Evade while Dark Shroud is active, you'll leave an explosion behind that will deal 450 to 1350 shadow damage, pulling enemies in. Your stats will also receive the following boosts thanks to the Shroud's Affixes:
- Evade Grants +[16-25]% Movement Speed for 1.5 Seconds
- +[57.0-75.0]% Non-Physical Damage
- +[2-3] to Dark Shroud
- +[46.5-60.0]% Shadow Resistance
