And this suggestion is also for Blizz themselves because it will make people keep playing the game instead of dropping out. Now players can feel that the time they infested may mean something for getting an Uber.
I do not mean challenge in the “difficulty” setting. I meant challenging mentally.
It would be difficult to mentally deal with all the monotonous grinding it would take to meet the requirements of that system.
Some would say that this is one of the more difficult games in that respect. Some people just do not have the mental toughness to complete this kind of grind.
There are many forms of difficulty, it isnt always about playing skill.
And the cure for this is to make the gameplay loop fun or at least somewhat engaging. Helltide and Whisper farming is the opposite of this.
Bro, F rob. The system is crap and Rob’s is even worse.
I am not arguing with you.
But wouldnt that make the game easier and take the mental game out of it?
All i was saying IF they were to implement robs idea, having low numbers would be a joke. There needs to be some kind of challenge, whether it be skill or mental challenges.
The problem is, these days no one wants to earn anything. They want it given to them. I am not one of those kinds of people i guess.

I mean, there’s grind, then there’s this… As I mentioned, a season is 90 days, tipically. Most of us have limited time to play. Grind is not always optimal. I think, and this is personal opinion here, grinding would be more fun if you were competing with other players, or even testing yourself to see how much you could push, then to grind like this to get a chance to get an item… But that’s just me. Game play should be engaging and fun, even if it’s a loop. What we currently have, is nothing but frustrating for the majority of the community.
Thus the solution being somewhere in the middle, and not relying on RNG maybe, because if you make those numbers for instance, 200 uniques I almost guarantee you that it would be the same as today - almost nobody would have an Uber item. Even if you make 40 it would still be meh.
With that being said, I agree with you, don’t just hand out things. But maybe if you had a system where, anything you do endgame - for instance, open a living steel case and you get living steel and a shard, kill an uber boss you get a shard, complete a whisper you get a shard, finish a 100 NMD or 100 Vault you get a shard - then you can make this and say 200 shard = 1 Uber, and you can even make it random. It’s a much better idea, an you still grind, but, you’re not stuck in a stupid loop of killing 2 bosses to be able to kill a boss.
Let us also turn in the mats themselves for shards for later use so we dont have to play the Duriel slot machine.
Gives a direct, albiet longer path to uber uniques, and gives a realer reason to farm mats if you are an average player.
People like to login & be able to see they have advanced in some way.

For people that already got their ubers this update makes their effort null…
For me trying to get ubers this update still makes me want to log out sooner than play more.
I was still enjoying my time grinding before this… Sure I can ignore it right now but it just leaves a bad taste.
ahh forgot about those 
fair enough
I keep seeing the same mindless conjecture.
You and numerous others claim that Blizzard designed this new uber crafting system to appease people who’ve RMT’d/duped mats and spammed Duriel enough times to obtain 5 ubers.
Riiiight… Why in the hell would they do that? Let’s reward RMT and exploits. Btw, a lot of hardcore ARPG players already stopped playing this game a long time ago. Only ones left are CASUALS and STREAMERS.
I’ll Necro this, because it needs an actual answer.
You can craft an Uber at lv 35, and the level requirement will be lv 35. You can even Masterwork it, and it will retain the lv. 35 requirement. It does require 4x Sparks and 50,000,000 gold.
HOWEVER - IF YOU DARE SOCKET A HIGHER LEVEL GEM: the level requirement will increase to that gem’s level.

oh, thanks, thats good to know. so get a char up to 35 real quick and craft an uber.
If you have the 50,000,000 and 4x Sparks. 
We got posters on here complaining about just 5,000,000 lol
I’ve said for a long time the entire level req thing needs to go away on gear that is bound to account. I’ve never cared that some other player rocks a Shako on lv 1 if they found one and moved it to an alt.
