The Patient Candle is a Demon Unique ring with no boss attached: it drops anywhere in Nightmare, most often from N3 up (rarer below that home difficulty, never above it), and nowhere else. Every copy is item level 100, and there 0.3% of what falls comes up Unique. It is built on Immaculate Dawnglass Ring — step 6 of the Dawnglass Ring line, item level 80 and up.

It always rolls the same numbers: +52 Ward, +54 Ward, +15% Healing Received, +55% Healing Power, +418 Maximum Health and +36% Holy Damage.

One Unique drop in 40 is a Mythical copy: the same item carrying 15–25% Mythical Energy that boosts every stat on it and can never be changed; the 15% floor is 10 times as common as the perfect 25%.

On top of that it carries The Patient Candle — Your Main heals restore 3% more of the target's max health, but its bolt flies 30% slower (healing abilities only).

“It gives less light than you want and more than you need.”
