The boss is easy but clearing the four mini vaults solo is way too time-consuming. A 4-man party can split up and clear all four at the same time.

yeah, he plays so he can dominate the leader board of course. Thats the only reason he bought all those mats to get all the uber gears before the leaderboards come out.
I see, let us know ur fren ID.
wanna see if he really can dominate, wish him gl from me.
game loops are best when u dont realize your in a loop, the mats grind is getting old, maybe add the uber bosses to vaults and other bosses to nm dungeons, maybe once u reach tier 75 or 85-90 something like this, or introduce solo raids and put them in there, doesnt seem like mat grinding to unlock ubers is a fun loop long term

I love how in the material discussion threads everyone seems to know someone that bought 1000000000 kills.
Maybe Blizzard will figure out this wasnât ideal after all.
I only got 1 unique that I believe and that was in my 70âs and of 0 value to my character. Only way I was able to get the uniques I needed was from a 100 barb killing duriel, and the beast in the ice.
Iâve had Malphas drop a Mucus-Egg multiple times but with rng of course. If they make it where salvaging uber uniques gives you some sort of âuber materialsâ, an element of rng for duriel boss materials to drop with it would be a nice touch.
well they did just announce something coming to uniques and we should save our uniques atm, maybe this will be what they are doing. I am curious if the mats paywall to access uber bosses is temporary and once all the end game systems are in place the ubers will be moved to maybe vaults, nm dungeons, raids, etc⌠I like the game but the way they have us finding early game systems to obtain mats to unlock ober bosses is kinda starting to get old, we will see
Everyone is buying these materials, personally I think even the streamers are. If blizzard was to do a ban wave they would probably delete 65% of the player base of this game lol.

honestly the dupers are the ones propping Diablo 4 up.
Without dupers people would waste few days farming Duriel mats and when they get to Duriel and get nothing, how many of them will dedicate/waste another few days farming for the likelihood of obtaining nothing in return again?
There needs to be end game content where you actually feel like youâre progressing. Right now Duriel is a gacha machine, where your time is the cost.

and they are so open about it. its surprising to me how blizzard notice and dont care
i think its obvious that they will not ban anyone because they dont want to lose a fan base.
absolutely right!
maybe they should sell them on the shop but even that doesnt refresh/work properly

This forum was littered with so many similar posts. Almost EVERYONE was screaming for another way to earn Ubers.
The devs didnât look or care. They gave you Duriel again⌠even after all of the complaints.
Nothing is going to change.
As a SSF player I did 5 duriels for the season journey and 1 loom and calling it a season. Hopefully season 4 adds some more solo friendly end game content.

As they add more bosses they seem intent to add more summoning mats. An entry fee is OK, but that entry fee needs to be 1 to 1. Varshan needs to be a single malignant heart and not 4 mats to enter. 1 to 1 on living steel also. Duriel is OK to be 1 to 1 but require 2 mats because he has the chance to drop Ubers. Beast in ice and Zir also need to be 1 to 1 with the poor drop rate of their mats.
And finally summon mats need to go into the materials tab and off the consumables tab. Another 3-4 seasons of this and 1/3 of the tab will be summon materials.
And I donât know that blaming developers is where the blame lies. I would look higher up the food chain. Extending the grind in this manner is meant to do one thing only and that is to drive engagement numbers. These games are competing for your time and as much of the market share as they can get. Investors and shareholders want to maximize profits. They tell the board of directors what they expect and a bunch of people in suits have the final say on what really goes into a game. Most profitable is what most often wins, no matter how predatory.

And Blizzard just keeps adding summoning mats to fill up the already full material tab. Horrendous system that shows just how bad these Blizzard devs are at their job.

After reading through this string I agree with the vast majority calling for change, the fans boys that have nothing else to do but grind content they hate to get mats are by far the exception. The truth is after season 3 people are burning out on the end game grind much quicker this season. Blizzard can change or lose their player base to games that provide a better QOL, Last Epoch and POE2 both appear to do it better.
oh yeah, agreed 
that is indeed faster in group
This new announcement is even worse so everyone that RMT duriel materials will now be able to do something about their many many uber unique duplicates. This does nothing to fix the problem but reward the folk who RMT (real money transaction).

I donât think removing them entirely is the right move. But perhaps free duriel runs with an hour cool down than can be reset with the summon mats. That way you can chose to just take your freebee and do something else with the time or choose to knockout several back to back.
It seems hard to logically justify having the system at all if youâre fine with streamers and traders entirely bypassing the system.
They added the system as a long obnoxious time-gate, yet some players can just entirely ignore it. If itâs not a problem for them, why does the time-gate need to exist for any of us?
