I suggest to just play the game and not farm any items if there is no fun for you.
It is just psychological trap.
Today is this ring, the other day is another item and you may end up in such worker loop instead of playing the game.
Just imagine that such ring does not exist, because if not that quest and idea of this specific loot, then you would not pursue it.
Solid Fog:
- check jewelry merchants under bridge in market place, I sometimes see this spell effect clickie there
- check auction house 2 times per day, at morning and evening
- blur/displacement spells are alternative, but it gets -5% and extra -5% per skull on reaper (you get 10% instead of 20% on R1)
- other alternative is using experimental tumble (you need to put only 1 point during level up once) for high dodge bonus (it is short, but can be life saver and helps me all the time on spell casters)
Deathblock:
- important around level 8-10
- auction house
- yellow augment level 12, but rare to buy
- deathward spell or rare potion, but can be dispelled
- cannith crafting
Spell Power:
- auction house
- potency for universal spell power or spell lore for universal spell critical, but is lower
- red augment (red/orange/purple slots - usually on weapons and orbs), monster hunter in hall of heroes sells level 4/8 +55/70 spell power of your choice for 200/400 remnants
- alternatively, collectors in market place sell level 4/8 red augments of your choice for astral shards
- cannith crafting allows you to craft rings with combination of any spell power and critical
RNG:
- named item has about 10/20/30% declared chance on normal/hard/elite+reaper, but each possible named item makes it lower
- it is not unusual that even with 50% probability, you would get nothing many times in a row, because there is no memory and every drop is independent, but I am not going to discuss probability in details
If you can not find what you need, then use /trade or lfm to ask people for help and there is high chance someone will contact you (it worked everytime I needed some ingredients for crafting and sometimes for other unbound things).
If you are on Moonsea, then I can give you any red augment you need, because I have a lot of remnants.
