Oni-Goroshi in Current League - are You gonna farm it or drop it?

I run 3 chars and got lucky while number 4 was leveling up since it was too boring for me to just farm Oni. 4 char farming was/is optimal and yes 8hr on average with 4 chars since you need that cd for map reset.

so i have 2h 30 mins+ per each character i have 4 scions so that makes it 10h still nothing, RNG is RNG sure but the drop rate/spawn rate seems abysmal i get it was nerfed but maybe it got overnerfed ? might be time for a slight increase.

Well you have to tell that to ggg. gl. And make sure you follow Oni farming guide by letter or you will never get it no matter how long you farm.

If it is not fun to you grinding for Oni-Goroshi then I'd suggest not doing it. The game is supposed to be for fun.


Pretty much. And the only way I would farm it is if I was playing SSF and I just had to have it no matter what.

If you are playing in a normal league where you can just trade for it, why would you ever subject yourself to that torture. Just trade for it.

I'm happy where it is.


I think I had about that time on the character who got it before the nerf. So expect a bit more farming.

Time spent overall does not really count here, rather time on the individual character, as far as I'm aware.

I'm happy where it is. This is currently only an issue because a certain somebody went and made my sword a little popular again, thus exposing what is MEANT to be a mind-numbing low level grind to people who are apparently okay with running maps for hours on end for little slivers of XP but can't do an easy-as-hell Twilight Strand grind for a handful of hours for a weapon that might last your entire character's lifetime.

I see people wielding my sword in town in SSF, so I'm guessing they feel it's worth the effort.


First of all your sword is amazing. Sure that certain someone made it more popular. But the main issue i have with the way you obtain it is that you get no feel for progress about no way of knowing hey am i close to this thing ? or any way to improve the chances ? or something that shows me it's happening. In maps even if i drop 1 jewelers orb that's still something, and that little silver of XP still shows a very small progress. Trying to spawn uber hillock doesn't have that tiny bit of small progress.

This is 100% wrong. The *only* condition to get Oni-Goroshi is to get Uber Hillock to spawn and defeat him. Other than learning how to level up in the Twilight Strand, there is no need for a 'farming guide'.

Please don't spread disinformation and falsehoods in this thread, thanks.


Sorry dude but "spreading disinformation and falsehoods" is the only reason I'm here as it is sooooo obvious from my posts in this topic.

Well good for you. If you and ssf players are into that kind of fun then all power to you. Maybe ggg should lower UberHillock spawn chance again so people farming for Oni can spend more time having fun farming for it especially now that certain somebody made it a little popular again. Me and I dare to presume a lot of non ssf players find ~8 hr of that "mind-numbing low level grind" not fun at all and opt for farming maps/currency and running events that come with running maps much more fun.

I almost wish GGG had let me decide the farming time. I wanted days per character, ahhaha. Almost no one would do it but those that did would have quite the prize.



wow I agree. Should be days per char so when I buy it after all theirs hard work of farming(botting) for it that some players find fun and worth doing I would also not feel bad for spending few ex for a mediocre league starter item. lol
