Since Season 2, you can farm the coveted Uber Uniques from Duriel in Diablo 4. As a small Christmas gift, Blizzard has now increased the drop rates by a whopping 100%. Players are already noticing that it works.
What are these items?
- Uber Uniques are special items that are even more powerful than regular legendary or unique items.
- They can strengthen just about any build and are an essential part of most of the best builds in Season 2.
- Previously, there was controversy over the items: for how strong they are, it was said to be just too hard to obtain them. That has now changed, and for a short time, you can get them even more easily.
This is how you get the Uber Uniques: With Season 2, Blizzard introduced the ability to specifically farm Uber Uniques. The new Uber boss Duriel has an increased drop chance for the items, but you must summon him first.
With a hotfix on December 20, Blizzard increased the drop chance of Uber Uniques from Duriel by 100%. You can now farm twice as effectively. However, the “buff” only lasts until January 8, so you need to hurry.
In addition to the increased drop rate, there was also a small change to the vampiric power Metamorphosis as well as a bug fix (via Blizzard).
In line with this, you can currently also level up really well, thanks to the Midwinter Pest:
“Got my first Shako after 15 minutes”
On Reddit, players are already actively discussing the buff. There are several threads discussing the unexpected hotfix. Players immediately notice that it works.
One user notes: after 300 runs with just one ring, he got a Shako, the most coveted item in Diablo 4 after just 15 minutes with the hotfix.
However, there are also players who complain. Summoning Duriel is too exhausting and after so much farming, they don’t want to try anymore.
In a comment, it is cynically stated: “Wow, now I can get no Shako twice as fast!” Others say they will only return with Season 3. Farming again now is too exhausting for them.
The corresponding users are criticized by the community. Blizzard has introduced a buff that is literally flawless. You simply get items that nobody “needs” twice as quickly, but that are really cool. Complaining about this is totally out of line. Especially since the items are not necessary to become strong – one player even mastered the hardest content with the wrong pants.
