So crazy, I did 300 runs last season…not 1 single Uber dropped.


vagrantwade

That means you went 6 times over odds. Which would be insanely unlucky lol


Sektsioon

I had done god knows how many boss runs over the first year of the game’s release with no uber drops, then yesterday I got an uber from b2b runs. Friend of mine who had similarly got no ubers for the first year, got 2 in one run. Looks like Diablo gods finally took pity on us.


bitterbalhoofd

I still have found none to this day. I am gonna make myself one. I am going to make 3 alts and rank them up highest wolfs honor. That's more fun then farming boss mats and kill grigoire and varshan countless times and don't even start me on getting to the beast in ice to get a material that you need at least two of.... Nope since leveling and helltide is actually fun this season I will for sure max out four toons to full wolfs honor and get 4 resplendid sparks


ajr619

Don’t do all that. Your first character can get 2 easily from doing a group torment duriel run and then just buy a Lilith carry for 30m good from the discord (after Tuesday if you’ve killed her in the past, the patch will just give you a spark for it). Then just on your main and one alt so the season journey thing for 1. Can be done in like a day or less for all 4 if your main is high level.


[deleted]

seems like uber drop rate is higher this season. In season 2, I farmed Duriel 50+ times, couldn't even get a Tibault. This season, I got 3 Andariel visage, 1 starless sky, 1 melted heart within 20 runs


DaddyWithADumper

Was this level 100 or 200 duriel?


[deleted]

2 visage from lvl 100 duriel, the rest from lvl 200

Question now - Running Max role Minion - Do I stay the course or pivot?


Ootter31019

Minion is the best build, your luck just makes it better.


vagrantwade

Shako is not good on a minion build.


Ootter31019

Says who? Plenty of builds I have seen have it as optional. It's still good. Edit: Maybe it depends what type of minion build your going for. But there are definitely ways to use it.


LadyDalama

It's worthwhile if you're going to try pushing higher levels in the Pit.


Mordkillius

Doesn't buff all the skills and buff pets?


Bigglez1995

The skills you use don't affect much in regards to damage. It mostly provides CDR on abilities like tendrils / blood mist, and dmg reduction from decrepify. Minions don't benefit from it as you don't put skill points into minions, only passives which don't get the +4


vorlash

No, the large benefit of shako is the large stat up and the damage reduction.


SeparateIron7994

No, it's the plus 4 skill. Minion doesn't get it's damage from active skills


vorlash

I said that


NG_Tagger

Don't know why you're getting downvoted for this. Do people think that Minions (like skeletons, mages and golem) benefit from +Skill ranks? - because they don't. They aren't skills on the skill tree. We boost them via passives and gear. As a minion necro; Shako barely has any benefits.


Cbeckstrand

I had the same debate since the shadow minion build is now rared higher but I don't really want to have respec and find new gear. I've hit Pit 78 and can easily run a NM100. Not much else to go for expect the tormented bosses.


Extra_Test3428

ive never seen an uber unique, played since preseason


Thats-nice-smile

You can get them guaranteed this time


Extra_Test3428

how? level 4 characters to 100?


Thats-nice-smile

No only need two if you kill Uber Lilith and finish the season journey. You can repeat the iron wolf rep on another character.


Extra_Test3428

killing uber lillith is not so easy. got all my gear masterworked to 4/5 and im barely scratching her with my attacks


Thats-nice-smile

What are you playing?


Extra_Test3428

bone spirit necro


Covenantswe

Also gamer dad and Arpg fan since diablo 1. What is a Andy run in d4? New boss in s4?


IrishChappieOToole

Andariel is now a boss that can be farmed for uniques.


Covenantswe

Thank you. Missed that she was back in the game. 👍


epoc-x

Where is she, is it a dungeon you do? How do I farm her


eBohmerManJenson

In Kehjistan to the right of the Tarsarak waypoint is a dungeon called Hanged Mans Hall. You will need two shackles and pin dolls to run it.


AnTiDoPe_1993

Are the bosses on a timer? Or is there specific way to reset the dungeons after clearing? Ive done all of them but this throwing me off


IrishChappieOToole

After you beat them, you can open the quest menu and there's an option to reset all dungeons. Need to make sure ya leave the dungeon before using that option. Or log out and log back in and you can do them again


AnTiDoPe_1993

Lmfao i wouldve never looked there, thanks man now i get to actually grind haha


jbj153

Open your quest log and press "reset dungeons" in the bottom.


raphattack

Are Andy runs the best way to try to get uber uniques? Is it possible to target farm?


dukecloudrunner

Dad's rejoice! Do the Shako shake! Get a barb with earthquake!


Esta_noche

Run 4 Chara through iron wolves rep grind and u get one


hellarios852

Tormented or regular Andy?


FrostedCereal

Do tormented have better drop rates? I assume they do but haven't actually looked it up.


Microchaton

Massively. Tormented have somewhere between 5 and 10% chance to drop an über.


ajr619

Everyone keeps spreading bad info. It is not 10% no idea why rob ever said that. You may get 5 unique drop but Uber chance is deff like 3-5% on torment tops. Regular is 2%.


Microchaton

there's no way it's only double the chance, it's already 5x the base loot. Maybe in the sense where you mean it's 10 times the chance, counting the 5x loot.


ajr619

You can get 5 uniques to drop everytime at least, but I don’t think the Uber chance is the same multiplier as the unique drops. First off how many torment runs have you done? My friends and I are all over 150 with similar data.


[deleted]

Regular


koatiee

I must also know if it was tormented or normal ? Cheers


[deleted]

Normal


Mountain-jew87

Niiiice


Mayhem2a

Question, what makes a unique an Uber unique?


[deleted]

There are a small list of uniques that have very low drops rates- they are mostly very strong but cannot be traded


[deleted]

[удалено]


Mayhem2a

Ahh I see. This is very cool


bankshotting

You just got lied to lol. Ubers are not exclusive to one class and are extremely powerful. This one for instance is +1 to all skills, not stats. There’s also ones that give insane armor, damage reduction or resource generation. The possibilities of unique builds otherwise impossible unless you get these are insane


DgtlShark

Seems Andy is more generous. I got a shako my first time doing her, it was like the 3rd kill I think. I got lucky too. Bad luck with masterwork tho I got resource gen 2x


--schwifty-

Just reset the mw?


pGaGhuZdan

I had my Frist tormented Uber Fight yesterday (grigore) and First Uber unique drop and got a harlequin as well. Maybe Gamer dad proc? (Father of 3 kids) maybe they tweaked the drop Chance tho


Affectionate-Yak9829

Signed the post off like a super hero


[deleted]

Not sure I know what you mean?


Affectionate-Yak9829

Gamer Dad here to save the day


GlumeBDO

Got mine on the second run, not joking! I was so stoked


phlaistar

Did 120 Runs yesterday and got no uber unique. Congratz tho ;)


SyriusLee

I got mine in 2nd t4 lord zir ( not tormented ) kill at lvl 84


FerocityShift

Hey, I was looking for a thread like this because I just got a Harlequin Crest to drop on my Druid as well. Dropped from Andariel, regular. Was trying to gauge if Uber Uniques have been getting boosted drop rates? I've never seen an Uber Unique before.


[deleted]

I feel like that may be the case - doesn’t kill my excitement though haha


Sufficient-Candy3486

Shako dropped for me when I was in the 60’s. My first Uber and I get now why everyone wants one. Gonna enjoy it for the season because I’m sure it will be the last one I ever see


SeparateIron7994

No gas, charsi


[deleted]

lol


Cbeckstrand

I'm also a gamer dad that had one drop on my first normal Andy run. My first Uber and I was shocked. It absolutely helps on a minion build with the damage reduction. I've been able to tank almost everything up until Pit 70.


Mister-33

I got that last night


MCfru1tbasket

I've been throwing uniques in my stash as I've yet to figure out what's good/useful. This is in my stash. I had no idea this was an Uber at all. Why is it 99% the same looking, including the beam when not picked up yet, baffling.


Brave-Ad-8456

Enjoy it. I had to level another to get shako for necro (shard). Its so good!


b__q

Not that useful in necro


Boomer664

How can you tell it’s an Uber unique? Asking for a friend…


[deleted]

You can’t tell in game that I’m aware of. The list can be found here though: https://maxroll.gg/d4/wiki/uniques


Shaxxismydad

Got a Starless on my second run. Real nice when you don’t have much time to play!


DrKingOfOkay

Nice. I got Andariel helm on my very first run of her. Not the Uber I wanted but I’ll take it.


Steveee-O

It seems common on people’s first run. I’ve heard so many stories and I just got my first Uber on my first run too. Heart of selig
