Diablo 4 has a patch coming today that will make it easier to get rare Uniques
Diablo 4 patch 1.0.4 will arrive later today carrying good news for hardcore grinders: rare Uniques should be a little easier to get going forward.
The full patch notes are still to come, and Blizzard's already explained that they will be on the shorter side, but the dev team dropped a tasty teaser during today's big developer update ahead of the Diablo 4 Season 1 reveal.
