Just wondering what’s the point of getting single unique drop if you know for a fact that it’s not gonna be an Uber?
It’s like you’re required to get a double drop just to have a chance on getting an Uber.
It removes the excitement whenever you get a single drop from Duriel.
This sh*t needs to get fixed!

No , its not … Some build still need the single drop , ie Godslayer, THibault, Talisman , etc ,
The uber uniques is special its hard to get , the chance is low and it required 2 drops to maybe get an uber uniques ,
So just play the game ,
Don’t need any of that.
And it doesn’t require a double drop to get. Why would u claim that nonsense. No wait, don’t tell me. Let’s not have a discussion, actually. Just go play the game.
Last double drop got me excited it was a helm and pants.
Turns out double trash.
It’s a different and separate roll. Rolls chance to get an uber and then rolls for which one, separately from the normal loot table. That’s why it’s always a second unique, though there is a chance to get 2 non-uber uniques from another separate roll.
First roll very high chance to get unique, 2nd roll much smaller chance to get a second unique, 3rd roll smaller still chance to get an uber. It’s kind of like the rune drop on D2 mobs. It’s a different category.
Right, so now I know that if it’s not a double drop it’s trash. Great.
The drop rate isn’t the issue with this, at least not for me. It’s that it’s boring, awfully boring. The boss itself is bad and the items it drops are also bad. Only item worth mentioning is the pants, tibault’s. But I got me a good pair. And I got practically perfect of all the other junk too. Junk I don’t use. It’s fun the first 50 runs, sure. But after a few hundreds I just wanna puke all over that literal giant maggot. But instead it pukes all over me as I stand there to collect the garbage it regurgitates.
I am here to kill monsters, that’s what I like. Hordes of monsters, that’s the theme of the game. Not bosses, and in particular not bad bosses. Duriel is boring af with low damage and also boring with high damage. It’s boring to one shot it and it’s boring to wear it down. Worse is wearing it down but the one shot stuff is a big bore too. Just stand there while some conan barb one shots it in his underpants… jesus almighty.
Idk how they came to the conclusion that players want to run bosses hundreds and thousands of times. It was never a good feature. Not in d2 and not in d3. The draw of the game is to kill many monsters, not hammer on singles. d2 bosses owns this though. Honestly, I’ve never had a worse experience from bossing and am actually upset I am paying for a beta test on how their gameplay cycle should look. Cuz this does not hold, not even close to holding.
And the helltides + blood harvest fails also because they’ve tinted the game red and green, respectively. It’s fun for a little bit, atmospheric, but when u run that every day all the time and only that, you get sick of it af. Which is why games are made with normal lighting, to see the world’s colors proper. Another oversight making the game worse when it doesn’t have to be.
So what we got: Red and green for some days or a week with world bosses and legions mixed in (not because it’s fun or useful but because you have to get out), and then it’s bossing for hours. Then do it again. And don’t forget to go to town every 4 minutes to dispose of the garbage you’ve collected. You will need that gold for your failed rerolls, so there’s no escape. And you get to visit the tree every fifteen minutes also, who gives loot to enter Duriel. But first yet another failed boss. At least that one u can do alone without regrets.
Yea, I’m filling up on this.

I got 2x Harlequin Crest and 2x Ahavarion, Spear of Lycander.
All my 4 Uber uniques came from a “Double Unique Drop”
I did maybe, 500+ runs already.
All my friends got their Uber thru a “Double Unique Drop” also.
All I’m saying is that if you get only 1 Unique drop, it’s gonna be 100% sure that is not an Uber.
Yeah people need those normal Uniques, I get it. But if you farm Duriel for those Uber, chances are you’ll get tons of those normal Unique items.
Single Unique drop needs to have a chance on being an Uber.

Just face it. If you play casually, couple hours here and there, you’ll likely never see an uber unique. Uber uniques are for those who treat this like a job, endlessly farming mats to do 300-500 farm runs. Everyone else just level to 100 and call it done.

I think you’ll find this is not the case. Now getting the Uber Unique you want is a completely different story. However as a casual player myself I have gotten an Uber Unique, I want to say within my first 30 runs of Duriel. Now it’s not an item I plan to use, but I did get one. RNG is just a cruel mistress sometimes, it’ll give you what you want, it’s just not very specific 99.99% of the time.
Everyone should have a fair chance of scoring the loot. In particular those who put in a lot of effort should. But Duriel in itself is a god damn awful stinking turd of pure boredom. U go figure if that’s a “casual issue” or if it’s straight bs game construction.
It’s not even about getting the loot or not getting it, at least not to me. It’s that the destination is Duriel. I’m farming to get bored and disappointed.
I agree. I am also getting bored now.
They should give us at least an Uber unique progress bar. like if we don’t get it maybe in a 1000 duriel runs, the next duriel is a guaranteed uber unique. Also they should not change how we acquire the current uber uniques in the future, otherwise it will feel like am I wasting thousands of hours now and maybe in the future thy will make it weasy for us?
It’s not a waste if you enjoyed playing the game. Personally, I picked up Diablo to try new builds. I don’t find gambling with my lifespan as the endgame enjoyable so the easier they make Ubers to get, the better.
I’d be happy if they increased the drop rate by 10x and character locked it (assuming they NEVER allow trading) so the focus is on making the target farm more engaging than it is farm-like.
Yea, I also like building. Remember d3 “billions of builds”? didn’t really work out.
Those ubers are part of building, they’re actually the most important pieces of gear to possess from a builder’s standpoint when looking at the fringes of what can be done and what can’t. Since they’re inaccessible unless durieling, we just gotta go there. And that’s not enjoyable. I enjoyed the first 20 runs there. Ten times later I am sick of it and contemplating putting the game on the shelf until they deal with this.
also thinking of just going out into the woods (no, not the literal woods omg) and kill some stuff there for fun. Only problem it’s not getting me anywhere closer to finished builds, which is a big reason I’m playing: To see how this can play.
Just wait until you get double uniques and neither of them are uber. Terrible feeling.
Except a perfect rolled Tibaults is more useful than most ubers not named Shako. And even the Godslayer and Tuskhelm are nice drops to have if high rolls.
