Blizzard Confirms Diablo 4 Has Six Super Rare Unique Items, Sparks Debate About “Lottery Level Rarity”
Blizzard has stepped in to clear up confusion surrounding the rarest items in Diablo 4, confirming six currently exist in the game. However, players reckon it’s nigh-on impossible to get one.
After nearly a month in which players wondered about the status of Diablo 4's rarest unique items because just a handful were found, Diablo 4 lead class designer Adam Jackson took to Twitter to confirm six super rare uniques are currently in the game:
