in a 1-100 run you have a 0.000000000000000001% chance to drop.
in a season you have a 0.00000000000001% chance to drop.
in 5 years of playing you have a 0.000000000000001% chance to drop
so, nothing changed, the ones that came from helltides might as well be bugged items, because thats the only way anyone would get one…
who makes these decisions? not gamers… accountants… for accountants by accountants.
You have more of a chance finding and befriending a real life dragon then getting one of these ultra-rare-uniques. Basically, they do not exist. They could be turned 'on" or turned ‘off’ the end result is the same; and if the end result is the same, what’s the point? Just delete them all from the game.
Uh… yes something certainly changed. They disabled it dropping so people couldn’t continue to abuse the “bug.”
What don’t you understand?
Sure, you won’t find it through normal means, but now people can’t further abuse the bug until that part is fixed
maybe you didnt get the gist of what i was saying… if you read the pop up in the blizzard launcher… it says Uber Uniques have been disabled and players wont find them anywhere.
what im saying is players dont find them anyways…
no need to point out they’re disabled… just fix the bug and nobody will have them anymore…
thx for the troll tho,
They’re pointing out that you can no longer use the helltide abuse to obtain one. I still don’t get what you’re confused about
Not trolling. Trying to help you understand why the post is there. Yes you won’t find one through normal means but you also won’t find one in a helltide chest. That’s the whole point of the post, given the absurdly low drop % elsewhere
not confused bud… pointing out the lunacy of not having something possible to drop, and calling it disabled for a while.
stop being a jerk
Players will not be able to obtain the 6 Uber Unique items until a hotfix which we expect to be implemented on Friday afternoon Pacific Time.
Well the HOTFIX 1 - JULY 7, 2023 - 1.0.4 is out but no mention in notes about renable them. So are they enabled or not?
The decision to lower drop rate is likely a choice proposed by the marketing team. They want to create a hype and reason for people to go on hunting for these extremely unlikely odd like playing the lottery; And they are hoping this feeling would keeps the player playing the game longer.
with the drop rates being effectively 0… it doesnt matter if they are enabled or disabled.
I think season 0 eternal is the best chance to get the UBER uniques we have today.
If unique drops, it has to compete with other uniques to be selected.
Because the moment they introduce more unique, its virtual impossibility shoots UP A TON.
Because in the unique pool the weight of this uber drop is 1, while other MANY unique is 800.000 (Hundreds of thousand chance to get rolled).
So when season 1 hits in and they add more useless uniques that also i assume gonna get 800.000 weight. The 1 weight is in the realm on heck ton of zeros because it was getting swamped by a ton useless unique with 600.000 average chance.
Even if it rains unique, its still extremely rare to get.
Very true, I didn’t even think of that…
i have played D2 for 9 years man… 9 YEAR… 5 days a week , at least 7 hours per day… and never drop 1 shako.
this is HOW blizzard made this games. this is intentionally… people have to hope… hope hope.
In d2, it makes at least partial sense,
there was/is a trading ecosystem, and showing off your gear matters. players in your game are actually there, and dont dissapear as you leave a town, its not instanced.
also in diablo the lowest odds are 1/500k for tyreals might… all the uber uniques are 1/800k.
nobody will get one for a season, for their eternal char for any reason. it just wont happen… the lotto has higher odds. and they expect people to just sit there at lvl 100… with no reason to play anymore except to get an item that makes it no easier bc you already are maxed out…
unless are you are one of the 100+ people that lucked into one who now spend some time in game letting folks know that they have one while waiting to kill a world boss. Blizz breeds and encourages toxicity.
Yes nothing changed when they disabled the ultra rare uniques in Helltide chest…SINCE THEY WERE NEVER ENABLED IN HELLTIDES IN THE FIRST PLACE.
they were disabled all over the world, not just helltides
I found a Dragon in Real Life and married her.
being thanos, you can just snap and make it better…
They aren’t going to listen to the community. They will make sure rare uniques will be a pipe dream. Our options are commit to season 1 or play something else. Devs said they are fine if we don’t play their game. I suggest people don’t play it and force their hand to make drastic changes.
Just wait for the next bug, exploit it until your hands bleed.
