Blizzard just doubled the drop rate of Diablo 4's rarest loot, so now's your chance to grab those Uber Uniques

Diablo 4's newest season has been its most generous yet and Blizzard just dropped a hotfix that makes it even better. The action RPG's hardest endgame boss, Echo of Duriel, will now drop the game's most powerful items, Uber Uniques, at twice the usual rate until the season ends on January 8.

As long as you can gather the required materials to summon Duriel and defeat him, you'll have a higher chance at getting build-defining items like the coveted Harlequin's Crest (AKA «Shako»). Blizzard has never said what the original rate for Uber Uniques was, but players estimate they dropped around 2% of the time.

Everyone playing Diablo 4 wants an Uber Unique because they offer bonuses you can't get on other gear, like a necklace that turns your mana into health for pseudo-immortality.

Today's hotfix also includes a major change to a season-exclusive Vampiric Power that conflicted with a popular Unique pair of pants, Tibault's Will. Players figured out early on that upgrading Metamorphosis caused you to enter an invulnerable Unstoppable state for four seconds. Leaving it at level one, however, causes you to become Unstoppable for only two seconds, which allows the resource generation bonus from
