I am a Mom playing with my 2 adult kids and Im explaining to them what to do, thanks to you, Rax!! You're an excellent teacher, which is a skillset not everyone has. Thank you so much!
As someone new to the game, literally never played any Diablo just started this week, this has been really informative. Well done. Thanks for the video.
Commenting for solo players. I’ve pushed multiple characters to 100 since s0, can easily clear nm100, pit 80 or so, and depending on the season, can solo some uber bosses. I’ve yet to see one uber/mythic unique since launch. It makes sense that I should hop on discord and find a group, but it’s kinda insane that for a mostly solo player experience, I’ll never see the best armor in the game without crazy luck.
@@Boost400 please good sir share your secret, Since launch I've only got one uber unique, the second was forged becuse I leveled 4 characters to get enough material and I won't ever do that again.
@@corinabasurte1406 what I did was finished the campaign with 2 characters (2 sparks) kill one tormented boss and had one spark from killing lilith previous sessons. I saved up all the boss mats, crafted andariel for my rogue and started farming the bosses. With barely any farming I had like 30 or so tries and 4 mythics drops, my advice is not waste your mats early and only do tormented bosses. After i crafted my andariel i went from struggling on hordes 4 to easily doing level 7 for styg stones
Thats what i was talking with a friend, the D4 social System really sucks, lots of bugs, invites error, no community groups, etc. Will be a great upgrade if they fix that.

Mythic Uniques are brutal for solo players. To stand a chance at obtaining them, you need to find a group and do a rotation. I wish Blizzard would make it so that people who play the game solo stand just as much chance as those in 4 player groups.
So nerf the benefit of grouping in a multi oplayer game? Its cool to have something to look forward to, game is pretty easy, i understand wanting the purple graphic but in reality, what does it matter?
If it cost less to summon bosses for solo players that would be a start. The void between group and solo is shocking. Also pit bosses over a certain level should have drops similar to tormented bosses
It's funny, one dropped every time for my first 2 uber kills. So I thought they were normal drops and salvaged them to create another. Then never saw one again since (think I've done about 40 more solo runs). Actually I don't think I've gotten anything decent from any of those runs, not even half decent greater affixes
You know out of all the d4 creators you are the first to actually explain everything easily. That earns a sub. I haven't played d4 since season 0. Thanks for the information
It's my first time playing Diablo 4 and I'm having such a great time, loved the campaign and played 2 or 3 days without helps or guides of the endgame but decided I needed a little help to understand exactly what I needed for mythics. You explain in a marvelous way that anyone can understand, the way you talk is really good and it helped me a lot, just got my first mythic with the help of some good people from the maxroll discord. Thanks a lot and keep doing some great videos :)
How is it that you talk to us the exact way we need to understand? Everyone else is so fast like we know the little details. I am an hour a night kinda guy. I used to play Ultima Online all hours, day and night back in the early 2000's. So, I understand grinding. People like you are a savior. Thank you.
Raxx YOU ARE THE MAN DUDE THANK YOU FOR THESE GUIDES THEYRE SO DETAILS AND EASY TO UNDERSTAND. blizzard really needs to see how much info they need to provide to players in this game.
You're the best. I already knew pretty much everything you said but even though it seems like a simple topic you still add a lot to the conversation and really simplify the steps for people. You made a good point about farming the boss that has uniques you need the most, it's a good way to hopefully get those greater versions. I normally just farm Zir because he's so easy. Luckily he also has a unique I want so I was killing two birds with one stygian stone without really thinking about it.
I love rax because the way he explain stuff. Its like you lack brain and he explain detail by detail even the tiny things, step by step, so you cant get lost😂
lmao, right? he covers it all, i'm sure at one point he use to be like that and now he gets ask all those questions on stream so he knows what to incorporate. Wisdom in his trade. aha
Note: Also if you're leveling alt characters they do NOT get a spark for doing lilith, or tormented bosses; its only a one time thing, however they do get a spark from the reputation. If doing helltide also ensure to do any whisper's content within it as its two birds one stone, any boss mats your not using you could potentially sell and then buy the other mats you do use if you're target farming specific uniques. World Bosses can also drop stygian stones but focus on infernal hordes as it is the best place. As always Raxx great video!
A small side note: all mythic uniques have a level requirement of 35, so if you want to level a new character, every mythic unique will power you up to no end.
Rax with another helpful video for the newer/casual players. Keep it up man and thanks a ton for the Lilith kill and 2GA Fireball staff the other night! You da real MVP!
Love your content. So straight to the point, super clear, the video gets the length that it needs with no fillers. Not even losing time with "please subscribe and activate the notifications".
Great video Raxx. I love how you targeted the broader audience by giving the complete information. This helps a lot of people, especially those who are returning for the first time since last year. Gotten 5 mythic so far, still don’t have a Shako 😂. I’m sure one will show up!!
There are only two phases to the game. The fun phase leading up to level 100, NM 100, Pit 100+ and getting the mythics you've been wanting. And then there's the hair-pulling mind-numbingly enraging phase of spending countless 100's of hours trying to get a single GA version of any of them. This 2nd phase lasts until the last black hole in the universe evaporates.
I’m so thankful for the information you share with us in clear way. My husband is a gamer and always points me to your guides. Typically I don’t play these types of games, it can be confusing with all the working parts. However I’m having a blast with D4.
Thank you VERY MUCH on this guide, im new to diablo and even with all the guides on maxroll, im SUPER HAPPY that you made this video very clear and stright to the point on what to do, how to farm, what to get, etc.. super appreciate it! wish more guides were like this to all of the "newest players" thanks alot!
It’s also important to mention that tormented beast in ice has been bugged since the launch of the season and only drops 1 pin cushion doll instead of 5 like he’s supposed to im really surprised no one has mentioned this yet
Yeah I only run the lvl 85 version of him so I can still farm andariel and get the most out of my mats. Sucks you get less chance at mythic uniques than you would if he dropped as many mats as he was supposed to but all we can do is play the game we have and report issues and hope blizzard fixes it 😢
what’s funnier is he’s also supposedly bugged and has the highest mythic drop rate in the game right now. from what i’ve seen he’s got a higher drop rate, higher dmg and he’s a glass cannon (dies quickly)
@@rking359 I’ve done about 100 tormented runs of beast in Ice he has the same drop rate as every other boss if anything I get far less mythics from him than I do from any of the others lol that shits all in your head it’s just rng
I was in a group farming tormented bosses yesterday and am fireball sorc with melted heart and shako, I literally can face tank anything because as fireball I keep my resource at max and the enemy does dmg to my resource which is always at max. Melted heart is severely underrated and as soon as I left the group they begged me to come back later to tank for them. I don't even have Tyraels yet.
Last night I was thinking how it would be nice if you made a boss farming guide...and here it is! I already spent all my S5 luck though. I got an Andarials on regular duriel the 2nd time I fought him.
I haven't done a T6 but I have some can't recall if it was from the infernal hordes or from something else. I think that you get some from the reputation track and maybe from the season challenges.
@@andrew177100 Yeah, you get ~12 stygians from reputation caches (I believe 2 in one midway through and 10 or so in the final one), besides there is still a chance in the Pit of course, but Pit is still bugged (fragments are not dropping in NM, so you run out quickly and can't start new pits anymore). If someone can do 6 comfortably, that's 1-2 stones per run.
@@astroape25 I started getting runeshards to drop. No idea how. I didn’t play last season so I’m not sure how many you normally got, but I’m at least getting 3 per clear of NMD 100.
I returned to D4 recently and found this channel. Great explanations and very impressed how you explain everything, so now I got a clear route to play on. Thanks.
Another great video man. I was just sitting here with my lv75 sorc going "man where the hell do I even start with mythics" and you answered every question I have in 20 min. You're awesome 🎉
Thanks, Raxx, for this incredibly informative video. I haven't played since season 2, and when I came back, I was completely lost. I ended up googling everything and asking around on Discord. I wish this video had come out sooner, but I'm glad I watched it all the way through. Super helpful! 👍🏻
Hi Raxx. New to your channel and I think you do the best job thoroughly explaining every step to take and I appreciate that you take the time to explain all the D4 acronyms and do not assume all players here are advanced players. Thank you so much, I learned a lot from you!
Depends on your char and depends on the boss. Beside raw survivability and DPS required, some bosses have more difficult core mechanics which you need to dodge (those mechanics are special attacks which give you a stacking debuff of more damage taken, where usually after 3-4 you will get 1-shot by most things boss does). Zir and Duriel seem to be the easiest in this department, with Beast and Andariel being the toughest, dishonorable mention going to Varshan and his stupid dance routine...
I’ll summarize for you casual players: 1) you have virtually no chance without a group which you need a 3rd party tool to find. 2) you have no chance of killing an uber boss with non Uber gear, so you will need someone to carry you, at least at first. 3) even if you have #1 and #2, you will need many many hours of grinding mats to get your mythics, far beyond what a casual player has time for.
Not strictly true. My bash barb can solo Uber Duriel in about 45 seconds, and I don't even use any mythics on my build. Only pain gorgers.ive farmed quite a few solo now.
Not true. I'm a solo arrow storm rogue and I haven't had any problems killing Ubers. Now getting what I need to drop is a different story but as a solo it's not impossible at all. Just takes persistence and understanding your build. Also I am a dad and have a full time job as an electrician so take it for what you want but it's very possible to do and very possible to get mystic uniques. 🤷🏽
I can't thank you enough for this vid! Helped me out so MUCH! Really appreciate the effort you go through explaining the mechanics of each season for those of us who are lost XP
Not sure if the drop rate's been buffed in other areas but I found a Andy's visage in a 101 Pit and I was ecstatic! First one outside uber bosses which is insane. Hope they raise the droprate a bit for the overworld and nmds, infernal, etc. Awesome feeling.
I can kill any uber boss in seconds and I've lost count on how many I've killed this season, but it's not fewer than 50. I have yet to see an uber drop from them.
I've been group farming too, nothing yet and I've killed tormented Duriel and Andariel 30 times each. I have seen everyone else I play with get something but the hard RNG sucks. I'm done for another season. Farming malignant hearts is brutally slow.
Hello Rax, thx for all youre video. My question is: is there any possibility that mythic uniques are dropping in the open world at normal monsters ? greetings from germany
Thanks man ! This video is really helpful, I’m new to Diablo, my toon is only at lvl 79. been playing DCUO for several years and tiered of having to throw money and time for little reward. I wish Diablo had a voice feature for people to chat while playing.
Bro I stopped playing july 2023 just started playing a year later with my girl and we have like 3 characters level 70+ the shit is soo fun I do t know why I stopped I could have like 5 level 100s
Idk what people find good about these so called "features". You basically have to grind some different activities in diablo 4 to give you rng drops and not a lot of them too. Then you fight some bosses that give you rng drops to fight other bosses that give you rng drops. All that to NOT get what you need and repeat that shit. The material farming for these bosses ruins everything. These features are perfectly optimized to remove casuals from the playerbase
i am a new player and basically this is my first season on my barb. i got two mythics from the double treasure goblin event, but after i have been so confused on how to get them. I dont think my barb is strong enough to kill any of the uber bosses but i definitely have the mats as ive done nothing but stack them and not know what for. you definitely helped me out with this video and will subscribing and watching more of your videos to educate myself,likely wont get to use the mats this season as we are a week away but ill at least know what to do next season. thank you!
Raxx, as always, very great training content for all. And yes, yes, yes, being able to join a "public game" for bounties, rifts, etc. in D3 is so needed in D4 for NMD, and leveling. BTW, rolling I.F.8's on my very popular Andariels Rogue build. Thank you Maxroll.
It's cool as hell that you're helping people. We do need better social systems and the pet needs to pick up the speed. Clans need major overhaul/features.
I find the power creep in this game incredibly frustrating. Im playing rogue and i find it very hard to push the items i can get to a point where i can kill tormented bosses. Most builds people use to farm for these items require these items. It just seems i always hit a wall that is just shy of being able to solo tormented bosses. Every build i look to to push past that damage wall needs one mythic that entire build is focused around. Im sure im doing things wrong but it feels very frustrating for us casuals since we dont know where we are not making up that difference.
@@theobell2002 .my solution this season is to level Alts. I got 3 sparks for my rogue already, right? You finish your first grind and kill Lilith (i asked the carry channel on the official Diablo discord for this) and got pushed through. Now I'm levelling a sorc, and I'm about 7 mothers gift caches from the 4th spark i need. Ill craft the Andys Visage and Im off to the races on my Rogue. This is absolutely not an ideal solution. And it totally sucks that i have to work around their system to make it work. While these games are very different i think the Division did loot drops and recalibration better. Targeted loot farming and slot specific activities as an example. I think they should drop mythics on normal bosses at a lower item level. Maybe like 600-750 or something. So we can use those items with poorer stats but have access to the skill modifiers and aspects they give to make the builds function the way we need to play them. If i could masterwork Andys Visage at item lvl 750 that would give me the poison novas i need for the build to work and it would get me over that wall while still limiting the multipliers and stats to a point where im not quite ready for Tier 8 hordes or +100 pit runs. You could very well find that balance.
@@theobell2002 I don't understand how you guys find this to be the case, especially considering you clearly watch content creators like Raxx here showcasing everything. Every class has multiple builds capable of killing tormented bosses without a single Mythic unique. You just need the regular uniques required to make the builds function, along with some time investment for leveling glyphs to 15 and getting tempred/masterworking to a basic level. I can't imagine you guys are following a Maxxroll guide, have the glyphs/tempers/masterworking and still cant kill any of the bosses.
Yes, I have very solid RF build, no mythics, can solo a few tormented bosses, but certainly all. And can’t quite finish T7 horde so tough to farm shards and other mats to even summon
5 chances at 1.5% each is still 1.5% if every chance is counted Independently than every roll is always 1.5%. You cant just add them bcs it creates gambler paradox and propability doesnt work like that
The better way to explain it is that you have a 98.5% chance of one not dropping every time. After five chances, your chances of not seeing one drop are 92.7% (0.985^5). OP’s statement is correct.
Thank you this is written like a good collage essay “intelligent uninformed reader”. So refreshing when you don’t run at 95 MPH past all the important parts.
Hi Raxx, I agree with 99% you said and still need to talk about 1%. I have a challenge for you - start a new character next season play only solo and when you get first mythic, talk about the guide again - and don’t forget that you play 8-12hours a day? So what guide is for an average player? There was one important sentence you said-you NEED to find a group. So the game forces a player to be in a party to have quadruple chance? And basically technically the game allows you to acquire the most powerful items in the game by just joining a group for free? Wow, the best game design ever-do you know any other game where you don’t need to do anything and still get the rarest and best items in the game? What I am trying to say is a tremendous gigachat gap between solo and group play especially 4man. You enter a group and boom - your reward can be quadrupled compared to solo play. This season, it took me 35 tormented bosses to kill to get my first mythic and trust me I am very efficient-killing beast within 5sec. My suggestion is very easy=would not hurt group but reward solo a bit more. 1. Achievement = after killing all tormented bosses solo for the first time you would get 200% boost to mythic unique drops when playing solo; and the second part of this would be-only after killing all of them solo you could party up for all tormented bosses-still would be much more efficient to play in a group 2. Achievement - after killing Lilith for the first time solo=you would need only half summoning materials for tormented bosses when playing solo I think this would bring solo a bit closer and would not force you to go find parties with random people and it would not be free compared to group, but locked behind achievements
Thanks Raxx, I always see your videos and I knew most of these things from the previous seasons; but, I didn't know they all had a chance to drop something. So thanks for taking the time to do this as I'm mostly solo and I don't get good info from the various other build guides; but, the season changes explanation are great. TY
300 exquisite blood? So you ran Lord Zir 11 times? Or did you run Zir a bunch of times as the non-Tormented version? If option A, that's honestly not very many times at all. If option B, you're doing it wrong.
@@jedirayden i had collected a total of 300 bloods. I joined a rota group and killed the tormented version of zir. The loot system is really bad anything that requires "luck" 🤞 i call bullshit because streamers miraculously get all the drops within an hour of farming tormented version of bosses with GA and tempering them through max stats without bricking the item. I see a clear disadvantage in this system and it's quite bad.
I was having a hard time killing and farming bosses was so I looked up a quick and easy to understand guide to farming mythics and I came across this video so I’ve subbed :) very helpful I’m at work as of right now but I mite stop by stream since I have no friends I still haven’t killed Lilith for the longest time.
d4 bad. how to get the best items step 1: jump through hoops to get materials b4 you can farm. step 2: completely brick finding mythic uniques after doing over 100 runs. step 3: realize how d4 bad and just uninstall.
I'd just like to point out, a good way to solve the problem of Infernal hordes VS Pits is that they need to put rune shards in infernal horde chests, and they need to put boss summoning mats in the pit. This will create a loop where you do infernal hordes to go to the pits and pits to get boss mats to summon uber bosses and repeat. It will give players a linear vision on how to play the end game and give the different content actual purpose.
I like that. And I was kind of feeling it ealier when I couldn't do IH5 and had to go to the Pit to Masterwork some equipment the slow way until I could get back to IH.
This was INCREDIBLY helpful info Raxx! Thanks man! I got my first 2 Mythic's yesterday and they were that staff and amulet lol I salvaged the staff but not gonna lie the amulet helped my mana problem with my Fireball Sorc I can average around 20 shots until mana is empty if I hold the button, and it shot my crit chance to over 80% cause I already had 41% crit chance, so even tho it's not used in most any builds it is useful for mana when you have no other Mythic's.
now i have the courage to fight these bosses first time as in, since season 2 i think, thank for this i already farmed my earthbreaker ring, now hunting doombringer. THANKS Raxx Biw W!!
There is a chest in helltide that is labeled as living steel (super easy to get ). All of the boss mats are super easy to farm . I literally had a stash page full of mats before i even hit lvl 100. You can do it folks just gotta grind.
Hey Rax, thx for the video and summary of the current season changes... For the most I admire you invest your time to help other with Lilith! Well done, never killed her by myself yet, nut I consider it as challenge)
Thanks Raxx. I think that was pretty clear. I still only have ever got one Mythic, and that was from the Pit. I tried: Did Duriel and Andariel at least 200 times in season 4
thank u for the info Raxx, I started the game last season and with your help got one mythic unique cause of the helltides and having four characters finish the quest line and now I know why people want those items cause I kept saying what's the difference and now I know in full detail and how to farm them on my own if I can since I mostly play solo and with my one brother
I got my first uber unique this season by leveling 3 characters and pumping the reputation, then got my Barb to a point where it could solo tormented Zir and got one from that. Crafted a Shako for my Sorc and now I can solo any uber boss I want. Now I just need to get lucky enough for Tyrael's and I'm set.

as a solo player, just keep at it in fighting tormented. when you get to beat one, you can just continue fighting them even if it takes a long time.
If it cost less to summon bosses for solo players that would be a start. The void between group and solo is shocking. Also pit bosses over a certain level should have drops similar to tormented bosses

Great and VERY detailed video Rax! Keep showing the YT community how to actually make good content.
Note: Also if you're leveling alt characters they do NOT get a spark for doing lilith, or tormented bosses; its only a one time thing, however they do get a spark from the reputation. If doing helltide also ensure to do any whisper's content within it as its two birds one stone, any boss mats your not using you could potentially sell and then buy the other mats you do use if you're target farming specific uniques. World Bosses can also drop stygian stones but focus on infernal hordes as it is the best place. As always Raxx great video!
only if you can do t6 hordes which is hard
@@catzblu999 i got only harlequin crest and can run t8 solo, its not hard 🤔 without mythic t7 is absolutely doable
A small side note: all mythic uniques have a level requirement of 35, so if you want to level a new character, every mythic unique will power you up to no end.
Thx Raxx, exactly what I was waiting for from you. You’re great at explaining the games you play
I cant tell you how refreshing it is to hear someone instruct/inform clearly, slow and precise.
Rax with another helpful video for the newer/casual players. Keep it up man and thanks a ton for the Lilith kill and 2GA Fireball staff the other night! You da real MVP!
Love your content. So straight to the point, super clear, the video gets the length that it needs with no fillers. Not even losing time with "please subscribe and activate the notifications".
You always explain things perfectly…so even an old noob like me can follow along 😊
Great video Raxx. I love how you targeted the broader audience by giving the complete information. This helps a lot of people, especially those who are returning for the first time since last year.
Gotten 5 mythic so far, still don’t have a Shako 😂. I’m sure one will show up!!
There are only two phases to the game. The fun phase leading up to level 100, NM 100, Pit 100+ and getting the mythics you've been wanting. And then there's the hair-pulling mind-numbingly enraging phase of spending countless 100's of hours trying to get a single GA version of any of them. This 2nd phase lasts until the last black hole in the universe evaporates.
So just 1.7x10 to the 106th power years to get a Mythic Unique!!! Totally worth it 😎
I’m so thankful for the information you share with us in clear way. My husband is a gamer and always points me to your guides. Typically I don’t play these types of games, it can be confusing with all the working parts. However I’m having a blast with D4.
You're the most researched, knowledgeable guy in this industry. Appreciate the heck out of your content and I hope you continue to enjoy what you do!
Thank you VERY MUCH on this guide,
im new to diablo and even with all the guides on maxroll, im SUPER HAPPY that you made this video very clear
and stright to the point on what to do, how to farm, what to get, etc..
super appreciate it! wish more guides were like this to all of the "newest players"
thanks alot!
As a Diablo noob, I genuinely appreciate this video.
It’s also important to mention that tormented beast in ice has been bugged since the launch of the season and only drops 1 pin cushion doll instead of 5 like he’s supposed to im really surprised no one has mentioned this yet
Yeah I only run the lvl 85 version of him so I can still farm andariel and get the most out of my mats. Sucks you get less chance at mythic uniques than you would if he dropped as many mats as he was supposed to but all we can do is play the game we have and report issues and hope blizzard fixes it 😢
what’s funnier is he’s also supposedly bugged and has the highest mythic drop rate in the game right now. from what i’ve seen he’s got a higher drop rate, higher dmg and he’s a glass cannon (dies quickly)
I feel Andy is bugged no matter 100/200 Andy never drops a mythic
@@rking359 I’ve done about 100 tormented runs of beast in Ice he has the same drop rate as every other boss if anything I get far less mythics from him than I do from any of the others lol that shits all in your head it’s just rng
@@nickk3403 I’ve dropped several from him this season
Appreciate this, I was starting to put this together on my own but you filled in some much needed pieces
I was in a group farming tormented bosses yesterday and am fireball sorc with melted heart and shako, I literally can face tank anything because as fireball I keep my resource at max and the enemy does dmg to my resource which is always at max. Melted heart is severely underrated and as soon as I left the group they begged me to come back later to tank for them. I don't even have Tyraels yet.
Can we see your build
Last night I was thinking how it would be nice if you made a boss farming guide...and here it is!
I already spent all my S5 luck though. I got an Andarials on regular duriel the 2nd time I fought him.
Note that stygians only drop from T6+ hordes, some people can't do that yet
I haven't done a T6 but I have some can't recall if it was from the infernal hordes or from something else. I think that you get some from the reputation track and maybe from the season challenges.
Well... that explains things. 😅
@@andrew177100 Yeah, you get ~12 stygians from reputation caches (I believe 2 in one midway through and 10 or so in the final one), besides there is still a chance in the Pit of course, but Pit is still bugged (fragments are not dropping in NM, so you run out quickly and can't start new pits anymore). If someone can do 6 comfortably, that's 1-2 stones per run.
I’ve actually gotten Stygian stones from regular boss kills & something else.
@@astroape25
I started getting runeshards to drop. No idea how. I didn’t play last season so I’m not sure how many you normally got, but I’m at least getting 3 per clear of NMD 100.
I returned to D4 recently and found this channel. Great explanations and very impressed how you explain everything, so now I got a clear route to play on. Thanks.
Thank you for making me better at the game!
Another great video man. I was just sitting here with my lv75 sorc going "man where the hell do I even start with mythics" and you answered every question I have in 20 min. You're awesome 🎉
Thanks, Raxx, for this incredibly informative video. I haven't played since season 2, and when I came back, I was completely lost. I ended up googling everything and asking around on Discord. I wish this video had come out sooner, but I'm glad I watched it all the way through. Super helpful! 👍🏻
Love this video. One of the most helpful topics to be explained for someone that is at endgame but can’t push the highest levels still. Thanks rax
My issue with Mythic gear is that it's brutal to farm for solo players.
Hi Raxx. New to your channel and I think you do the best job thoroughly explaining every step to take and I appreciate that you take the time to explain all the D4 acronyms and do not assume all players here are advanced players. Thank you so much, I learned a lot from you!
Had a buddy get Tyrael's and Ahavarion spear back to back on normal duriel yesterday
Raxx - the 1 stop shop for all your D4 needs 💪
What’s a good marker for character power level that will indicate that you’re ready to take on tormented bosses?
depends on the build, but to be super safe i'd say lvl 100 4/12 masterwork
If you can clear Tier 6 hordes you can kill tormented bosses.
@@AndrewDoesGamingz And a lot of skill. My maxed out 12/12 Heartseeker couldn't beat a tormented last season. I'm just too lazy to dodge stuff.
Depends on your char and depends on the boss. Beside raw survivability and DPS required, some bosses have more difficult core mechanics which you need to dodge (those mechanics are special attacks which give you a stacking debuff of more damage taken, where usually after 3-4 you will get 1-shot by most things boss does). Zir and Duriel seem to be the easiest in this department, with Beast and Andariel being the toughest, dishonorable mention going to Varshan and his stupid dance routine...
@@astroape25 I just don’t want to waste mats to just get stomped.
Best beginner friendly Diablo 4 Video I have seen in a long time!
I’ll summarize for you casual players:
1) you have virtually no chance without a group which you need a 3rd party tool to find.
2) you have no chance of killing an uber boss with non Uber gear, so you will need someone to carry you, at least at first.
3) even if you have #1 and #2, you will need many many hours of grinding mats to get your mythics, far beyond what a casual player has time for.
Not strictly true. My bash barb can solo Uber Duriel in about 45 seconds, and I don't even use any mythics on my build. Only pain gorgers.ive farmed quite a few solo now.
Not true. I'm a solo arrow storm rogue and I haven't had any problems killing Ubers. Now getting what I need to drop is a different story but as a solo it's not impossible at all. Just takes persistence and understanding your build. Also I am a dad and have a full time job as an electrician so take it for what you want but it's very possible to do and very possible to get mystic uniques. 🤷🏽
You can't kill Ubers without Mythics? Sounds like a skill issue.
Your entire post reads as a skill issue.
Coming from path of exile this is a much easier game. Poe has literally modifiers and boss encounters that are extremely frustrating
I can't thank you enough for this vid! Helped me out so MUCH! Really appreciate the effort you go through explaining the mechanics of each season for those of us who are lost XP
Not sure if the drop rate's been buffed in other areas but I found a Andy's visage in a 101 Pit and I was ecstatic! First one outside uber bosses which is insane. Hope they raise the droprate a bit for the overworld and nmds, infernal, etc. Awesome feeling.
I found an andariels last season outside of tormented bosses. Adrenaline rush and bragging to my buddies :)
You do the best job explaining in a way that can be grasped. I'm trash so this helps
Always perfectly timed
Amazing video. I just got back into Diablo since season 1. This is really helpful and by far the most clear explanation.
I can kill any uber boss in seconds and I've lost count on how many I've killed this season, but it's not fewer than 50. I have yet to see an uber drop from them.
I got five characters to 100 and the only mythic I got was the one I forced the game to give me
Last season
I've been group farming too, nothing yet and I've killed tormented Duriel and Andariel 30 times each. I have seen everyone else I play with get something but the hard RNG sucks. I'm done for another season. Farming malignant hearts is brutally slow.
I got one from regular Andariel while farming for an Azurewrath
@@Osiris02i killed arround 50 tormented bosses and got 10 mythics
how am I not subbed, I swear I was subbed. This answered a lot of questions I had. Wish people who do guides for other games I play were this good 😂
Hello Rax, thx for all youre video. My question is: is there any possibility that mythic uniques are dropping in the open world at normal monsters ? greetings from germany
Technically yes, but very low drop chance
It’s possible, but very rare!
Thank u all ❤
Thanks man ! This video is really helpful, I’m new to Diablo, my toon is only at lvl 79. been playing DCUO for several years and tiered of having to throw money and time for little reward. I wish Diablo had a voice feature for people to chat while playing.
Crazy, diablo looks like it has content now and is fun past lvl 70. If only they had these features on launch! i'd probably play the game!
Bro I stopped playing july 2023 just started playing a year later with my girl and we have like 3 characters level 70+ the shit is soo fun I do t know why I stopped I could have like 5 level 100s
Idk what people find good about these so called "features". You basically have to grind some different activities in diablo 4 to give you rng drops and not a lot of them too. Then you fight some bosses that give you rng drops to fight other bosses that give you rng drops. All that to NOT get what you need and repeat that shit. The material farming for these bosses ruins everything.
These features are perfectly optimized to remove casuals from the playerbase
i am a new player and basically this is my first season on my barb. i got two mythics from the double treasure goblin event, but after i have been so confused on how to get them. I dont think my barb is strong enough to kill any of the uber bosses but i definitely have the mats as ive done nothing but stack them and not know what for. you definitely helped me out with this video and will subscribing and watching more of your videos to educate myself,likely wont get to use the mats this season as we are a week away but ill at least know what to do next season. thank you!
GOAT 🐐
Hey Rax, thanks for explaining things to us like were a child. It helps a lot!
Air dicker at 8:35
came to the comments to see if anyone else noticed lolol
Dude. I'm still laughing at this days later lol
Raxx, as always, very great training content for all. And yes, yes, yes, being able to join a "public game" for bounties, rifts, etc. in D3 is so needed in D4 for NMD, and leveling. BTW, rolling I.F.8's on my very popular Andariels Rogue build. Thank you Maxroll.
It's cool as hell that you're helping people. We do need better social systems and the pet needs to pick up the speed. Clans need major overhaul/features.
I find the power creep in this game incredibly frustrating. Im playing rogue and i find it very hard to push the items i can get to a point where i can kill tormented bosses. Most builds people use to farm for these items require these items. It just seems i always hit a wall that is just shy of being able to solo tormented bosses. Every build i look to to push past that damage wall needs one mythic that entire build is focused around. Im sure im doing things wrong but it feels very frustrating for us casuals since we dont know where we are not making up that difference.
Exactly my experience.
@@theobell2002 .my solution this season is to level Alts. I got 3 sparks for my rogue already, right? You finish your first grind and kill Lilith (i asked the carry channel on the official Diablo discord for this) and got pushed through. Now I'm levelling a sorc, and I'm about 7 mothers gift caches from the 4th spark i need. Ill craft the Andys Visage and Im off to the races on my Rogue.
This is absolutely not an ideal solution. And it totally sucks that i have to work around their system to make it work. While these games are very different i think the Division did loot drops and recalibration better. Targeted loot farming and slot specific activities as an example. I think they should drop mythics on normal bosses at a lower item level. Maybe like 600-750 or something. So we can use those items with poorer stats but have access to the skill modifiers and aspects they give to make the builds function the way we need to play them.
If i could masterwork Andys Visage at item lvl 750 that would give me the poison novas i need for the build to work and it would get me over that wall while still limiting the multipliers and stats to a point where im not quite ready for Tier 8 hordes or +100 pit runs. You could very well find that balance.
@@theobell2002 I don't understand how you guys find this to be the case, especially considering you clearly watch content creators like Raxx here showcasing everything. Every class has multiple builds capable of killing tormented bosses without a single Mythic unique. You just need the regular uniques required to make the builds function, along with some time investment for leveling glyphs to 15 and getting tempred/masterworking to a basic level.
I can't imagine you guys are following a Maxxroll guide, have the glyphs/tempers/masterworking and still cant kill any of the bosses.
Yes, I have very solid RF build, no mythics, can solo a few tormented bosses, but certainly all. And can’t quite finish T7 horde so tough to farm shards and other mats to even summon
@@karlbrown9112 in my opinion, only rapid fire is able to kill tormented without already owning uniques. And i absolutely share the feeling.
I’ll drop u a subscription, from all of the content creators for Diablo V you seem the most down to earth & “normal”.
already learned this stuff but this video is so well explained and easy to digest without feeling an information overload
6:40 5 chances at 1.5% is actually only a 7.3% chance per run. Blizzard doesn't even know their own math but we all knew that.
5 chances at 1.5% each is still 1.5% if every chance is counted Independently than every roll is always 1.5%. You cant just add them bcs it creates gambler paradox and propability doesnt work like that
@@arturharasim7189 That's what I was saying.
The better way to explain it is that you have a 98.5% chance of one not dropping every time. After five chances, your chances of not seeing one drop are 92.7% (0.985^5).
OP’s statement is correct.
Played every season for hundreds of hours never got one... I only play solo tho.... this is what make me quit every season cause they are so rare....😢
I got a shako and a doombringer last night 🤷♂️
This Mythic guide is done Mythically damn well. Thank you!
How? Well, you kill Tormented Bosses... done ^^
Not even tormented ones. My very first Duriel run of the season, I got Tyrael’s. On the 4th, I got Lycander
@@danh.5998 So you got those from the non-tormented versions of the bosses? Thanks, fairly new player here.
You know a game has failed to teach, motivate and inspire when we have to watch many videos to start to understand it.
please tell me "excuzee blood" is satire and a joke
Mi scusi.
Thank you this is written like a good collage essay “intelligent uninformed reader”. So refreshing when you don’t run at 95 MPH past all the important parts.
Be a streamer and offer to kill ubers for people watching your stream. Easy peasy.
And now?
Dude just subscribed on how you ended the vid - thank you for the info def will be on the lookout for the streams!
Hi Raxx, I agree with 99% you said and still need to talk about 1%. I have a challenge for you - start a new character next season play only solo and when you get first mythic, talk about the guide again - and don’t forget that you play 8-12hours a day? So what guide is for an average player? There was one important sentence you said-you NEED to find a group. So the game forces a player to be in a party to have quadruple chance? And basically technically the game allows you to acquire the most powerful items in the game by just joining a group for free? Wow, the best game design ever-do you know any other game where you don’t need to do anything and still get the rarest and best items in the game? What I am trying to say is a tremendous gigachat gap between solo and group play especially 4man. You enter a group and boom - your reward can be quadrupled compared to solo play. This season, it took me 35 tormented bosses to kill to get my first mythic and trust me I am very efficient-killing beast within 5sec.
My suggestion is very easy=would not hurt group but reward solo a bit more.
1. Achievement = after killing all tormented bosses solo for the first time you would get 200% boost to mythic unique drops when playing solo; and the second part of this would be-only after killing all of them solo you could party up for all tormented bosses-still would be much more efficient to play in a group
2. Achievement - after killing Lilith for the first time solo=you would need only half summoning materials for tormented bosses when playing solo
I think this would bring solo a bit closer and would not force you to go find parties with random people and it would not be free compared to group, but locked behind achievements
Group play is more efficient, but not necessary.
Thanks Raxx, I always see your videos and I knew most of these things from the previous seasons; but, I didn't know they all had a chance to drop something. So thanks for taking the time to do this as I'm mostly solo and I don't get good info from the various other build guides; but, the season changes explanation are great. TY
After spending 300 bloods and 0 mythics i can safely say that this game is still garbage not to mention the amount of bricked items
300 exquisite blood? So you ran Lord Zir 11 times? Or did you run Zir a bunch of times as the non-Tormented version? If option A, that's honestly not very many times at all. If option B, you're doing it wrong.
@@jedirayden i had collected a total of 300 bloods. I joined a rota group and killed the tormented version of zir. The loot system is really bad anything that requires "luck" 🤞 i call bullshit because streamers miraculously get all the drops within an hour of farming tormented version of bosses with GA and tempering them through max stats without bricking the item. I see a clear disadvantage in this system and it's quite bad.
I was having a hard time killing and farming bosses was so I looked up a quick and easy to understand guide to farming mythics and I came across this video so I’ve subbed :) very helpful I’m at work as of right now but I mite stop by stream since I have no friends I still haven’t killed Lilith for the longest time.
d4 bad. how to get the best items step 1: jump through hoops to get materials b4 you can farm. step 2: completely brick finding mythic uniques after doing over 100 runs. step 3: realize how d4 bad and just uninstall.
Thank you for making this, it cleared up some of the misconceptions I had from the previous season.
I'd just like to point out, a good way to solve the problem of Infernal hordes VS Pits is that they need to put rune shards in infernal horde chests, and they need to put boss summoning mats in the pit. This will create a loop where you do infernal hordes to go to the pits and pits to get boss mats to summon uber bosses and repeat. It will give players a linear vision on how to play the end game and give the different content actual purpose.
I like that. And I was kind of feeling it ealier when I couldn't do IH5 and had to go to the Pit to Masterwork some equipment the slow way until I could get back to IH.
Appreciate all your tips and advice! Very easy to follow for new players and D4 vets alike. Keep them coming Rax!
Keeping it real, helping out the community and newcomers. Much appreciated man!
This was INCREDIBLY helpful info Raxx! Thanks man! I got my first 2 Mythic's yesterday and they were that staff and amulet lol I salvaged the staff but not gonna lie the amulet helped my mana problem with my Fireball Sorc I can average around 20 shots until mana is empty if I hold the button, and it shot my crit chance to over 80% cause I already had 41% crit chance, so even tho it's not used in most any builds it is useful for mana when you have no other Mythic's.
Softcore Raxx is such a vibe, thanks for all you do sir
This man is a great teacher, thanks Rax 😊
now i have the courage to fight these bosses first time as in, since season 2 i think, thank for this i already farmed my earthbreaker ring, now hunting doombringer. THANKS Raxx Biw W!!
There is a chest in helltide that is labeled as living steel (super easy to get ). All of the boss mats are super easy to farm . I literally had a stash page full of mats before i even hit lvl 100. You can do it folks just gotta grind.
Hey Rax,
thx for the video and summary of the current season changes... For the most I admire you invest your time to help other with Lilith!
Well done, never killed her by myself yet, nut I consider it as challenge)
Thanks Raxx. I think that was pretty clear. I still only have ever got one Mythic, and that was from the Pit. I tried: Did Duriel and Andariel at least 200 times in season 4
thank u for the info Raxx, I started the game last season and with your help got one mythic unique cause of the helltides and having four characters finish the quest line and now I know why people want those items cause I kept saying what's the difference and now I know in full detail and how to farm them on my own if I can since I mostly play solo and with my one brother
You have the best tutorials and best builds in the game. Thank you.
Thank for the vid Raxx! It's incredibly informative and well put together. I'll keep on my solo grind and hopefully it'll pay off.
I got my first uber unique this season by leveling 3 characters and pumping the reputation, then got my Barb to a point where it could solo tormented Zir and got one from that. Crafted a Shako for my Sorc and now I can solo any uber boss I want. Now I just need to get lucky enough for Tyrael's and I'm set.
@Raxxanterax, I am a new streamer from South Africa, obviously watching you for many years! Huge fan (my streams, when I have a hoodie up, its no relation, its just cold by me) but you the OG hoodie man :) I have been focusing on the weaker builds, Like Shred, its been fun and I am struggling, but any chance you have some time to review it, give some pointers, and maybe I can improve on it. Iv got maxroll planner up, trying my best. You are actually my inspiration to trying this, as I still have a day job / son and wife :) so time limited. Thanks for all your hard work man! You a legend.
Keep blasting buddy. Love the South Africans!
@@Raxxanterax Wow I am blown away that you actually replied friend!! You have made my day! I will keep trying and who knows, maybe some day I can collab with you, as I just want to have fun and to make a positive vibe with our games we all love (despite some issues) :) Big fan from South Africa you legend! :)
Edit - Got my 1st mythic unique yesterday :D Tyrials Might and crafted Shako, so I am over the moon :) You are very valued my friend
Thank you so much of this video. GOAT! Im back playing after season1 and so confused about all these bosses. This helped me alot. THANK YOU!
Thank you for the video - this is awesome for newer players and more casual players! Your willingness to help the D4 community is wonderful to see
Ich mag es das du für alle Arten von Spielern Videos machst
It's hard to find info on this for casuals thanks for this video. It's all confusing especially for a hardcore player who doesn't want to jump into a death dungeon
Me yesterday: *Thinks of this exact video, and who has made one*
Raxx: Done!
