Blizzard has stepped in to clear up the confusion surrounding the missing items in Diablo 4, confirming the six that are currently available. However, players find it almost impossible to find one.
After nearly a month of players wondering about the status of Diablo 4’s extremely rare items due to limited availability, Diablo 4 lead artist Adam Jackson took to Twitter to confirm that six of the rarest items are in the game:
- Doombringer (special sword cut)
- The Grandfather (slashing two-handed sword)
- Ring of the Starless Heavens (special ring)
- Andariel’s Visage (special helm)
- Harlequin Crest (special sponsor)
- Selig’s Melting Heart (special charm)
Hello! I wanted to clarify some things that are not available in Diablo 4.
1. Can drop from level 85+ enemies
2. You can find them anywhere you can find a regular Unique, and they always come down to 820 ipower
3. We currently have 6 of them in the game
4. It’s really rare! pic.twitter.com/pVVj5DTEaU— Adam Jackson (@AZJackson85) June 24, 2023
According to Jackson, these rare items only drop from level 85 plus enemies, always drop by 820 power, and can be found anywhere you can find rare items. Jackson also confirmed that the most unusual “is really rare”, and it is the last point that has made the cat among the pigeons in the Diablo group.
Blizzard has not yet confirmed the exact descent of this very strange thing, so Diablo 4 players are currently trying to prepare themselves, which is not surprising because they admire it. As redditor Sloppy_Donkey points out, not only do you need to grind until you can take down at least 85 enemies (Blizzard himself has said that most Diablo 4 players could have completed the campaign), but based on a few drops that were confirmed to be very rare about a month into the game’s life, it seems that we are talking hundreds of hours, maybe even thousands of hours of play before it crashes.
Players call this extremely rare risk “lottery scarcity”, and the items are “not available” because of this. And while previous Diablo games had very rare items at low prices, they had trading systems that allowed players to acquire these items from others. Diablo 4 has no such marketing strategy, leaving players at the mercy of a brutally low-level game.
“I am not sure what the motive was for making this,” wondered the writer Aetiusx. “We’re talking rarer times than Mageblood [Path of Exile] or Mirror [Path of Exile] for non-commercial games. Some of the items are not very good, so it adds to the confusion. ” “Such low standards are not for non-commercial sports,” Yasuchika agreed.
Some players say that the situation is made worse because these rarities can be “dropped”, meaning that even if you are lucky enough to get one, it will not have the best stats. Redditor Ok_Excuse1908 said that Blizzard adds stats and bonuses to these rares to avoid disappointment: “What’s wrong with giving people who are using 200+ hours of Season 1 before seeing one of these?
“I’m not saying that they should stop trashing WT3 [World Tier 3]. But what about the horrors of T40 + WT4? This should be more common and the reward for completing the hardest part of the game and being the player with the most money. “
As the argument continues, Jackson continued on Twitter giving players instructions to search for these special rare items on the ground. Any time you find something special, there’s a chance it’s going to be one of those rare, Jackson said. Because of this, the best way to farm them is to play the ones that give you the “most special x amount of time”. This will be a popular way to finish Diablo 4 players who will no doubt already be farming in the best possible way.
Some players of Diablo 4, however, are happy that this is a very rare feature found in the game as they do, showing their absence that causes excitement in the community when found, and pointing to Diablo 4 was designed as a “regular game”, that is, that has been played for years, maybe even ten years, not months.
In any case, it would be interesting to see if Blizzard adds a drop in these items as part of the next patch for Diablo 4, which is coming soon.
Diablo 4 launched big, becoming Blizzard’s best-selling game of all time. It is very popular with the critics, and, in most cases, it has gone down well with the fans. However, the cost of Diablo 4’s microtransactions has raised eyebrows, and, ironically, Whoopi Goldberg called on Blizzard to release Diablo 4 on the Mac.
