Oni-Goroshi in Current League - are You gonna farm it or drop it?
|
Whoops! I'm not sure if it's my English or the general evolution of the internet, but my compliments often seem to be taken as sarcasm here.
I know and adore Altnaharra's thread, even considered defiling it with my screenshots. Nice shot. That goat in the background is exceptional! ;) ...OK, back to PoE. I'm about to hit Act 8 with my OG character, in case you need anything else to be captured. Something something a divider between posts

" I personally like witch class to farm for an Oni. Her fireball is simple and effective. Never go with a melee character. The Uber Hillock minions can't be killed fast enough and they will get in your way of attacking the brute. Here's my proof (March 7, 2018):

Oh the pain... THE PAIN!!!... I'd rather mind mend with a Horta than endure the pain of Oni farming ever again. Congrats GGG, you took all the fun out of farming for an Oni-Goroshi. It's brutal... B-R-U-T-A-L-!. Maybe too many players got 1 (or many) last league and that needed to be nerfed but damn it if you didn't do the usual over-reaction and go way extreme so that very few will want to do it.
Finally this morning Uber Hillock showed up. After 3 dozen runs this morning and was like "why isn't my double strike doing any damage on Hillock" from being in the usual zombie farm run state after awhile and then I woke up with a WTF, the sword in him is the ghostly green color, it's Uber Hillock:   Running around to try to lure the Awakened mob away from Hillock so I can get in and whack on him wasn't working so I finally gave up and just attacked until I ran out of life. After six deaths Uber Hillock was dead. I died once more to the mob and then could lure them away to pick up the sword. Thankfully I didn't have anything bad happen that would have reset the instance (that would have been too cruel for words if that had happened).   Figures that I'd get a shitty rng on the % increased critical strikes. Hells bells. Unless you are a PoE masochist I'd say it isn't worth the time farming it. Only reason I kept going is that I already had sunk too many hours into farming on a 3 build rotation and I was thinking "damn it I will not let the Wookie win" (curse you GGG) so I kept going. I'm numb and need my morning coffee fix. "You've got to grind, grind, grind at that grindstone..."

Another challenge league (Delve) and another day at the beach pounding sand:
Level 8:   Hillock... oh Hillock, please come out and play with me. We've had so much fun in the past. Won't you please come out and play with me again?
Spoiler
Oh there you are. Hurray!... more fun at the beach:
  Oh no you don't pull a sword on me!:  Eat fire you big brute!  Leapin' lizards! Time to move...  Uber Hillock is dead. Now to kill all the nasties...   Ah... all the nasties are completely dead now.  At last, my first Charan's Sword in Delve expansion:  RNGesus is favoring me this time. :) Why yes, I killed the uber brute.  Please look at me when I'm talking to you. Keep at it and you too can get a 6L sword. Now what's the best Oni-Goroshi Templar build for delving? Decisions... decisions... (any build suggestions welcome here). To all Oni-farmers, Have a great day and make sure to use plenty of high SPF sun tan lotion. The uv index is a 10. "You've got to grind, grind, grind at that grindstone..."

Started 3 Oni farmers again, third time farming Her.
This time I am not just farming, also switching to other characters to continue playing Delve at the same time so I don't get too brain-boggled. Good luck Arrowneous, hopefully I don't end up in the Level 9 club ;) ~ Adapt, Improvise and Overcome

" Scion has the advantage of movement speed passive skill tree nodes. But I like the bow skill with ranger more than Scion's spectral throw. Over 430 threads discussing labyrinth problems with over 1040 posters in support (thread # 1702621) Thank you all! GGG will implement a different method for ascension in PoE2. Retired!

The past 2 times I farmed Her up, I found multiple Uniques.
This time, not a drop, have been lucky to find 1 pair of MS boots though and plenty of flasks. ~ Adapt, Improvise and Overcome

do some maps and delve and you got enough currency to buy this shit instead of wasting hours farming for it looooooooooooool

Someone has to farm it or it would not be for sale right?

" Arrowneous here: I just got my first Oni this morning on this account with only 1 unique drop in a 3 farmer rotation: So my unique drop rng is bad right now too. |
