Players of Diablo 4 are questioning the possibility of obtaining an incredibly rare Mythic Unique drop.
Despite some initial bugs that have dampened excitement, Diablo 4 Season 5 has successfully implemented some highly beneficial changes to the game. The Infernal Hordes, in particular, have been praised as ‘the greatest addition to the game yet’ and have even surpassed the Artificer’s Pit in popularity.
The buffs to the newly minted Mythic Uniques were almost as well received as they were when we referred to them as Ubers, making them even more highly desired. Of course, they are still incredibly rare and obtaining them requires a great deal of patience.
This is the reason why the incredible luck of Reddit user MicRo_Mnager has caused a stir among Diablo 4 fans. The fact that they obtained a Mythic Unique from a Whisper Cache was overwhelming for some.
Typically, obtaining Mythic Uniques involves tackling difficult endgame content such as Nightmare Dungeons or the dreaded Tormented Echoes. This can be quite a challenge, as it requires a well-optimized build and a significant amount of free time.
Therefore, obtaining one from something as easily attainable as a Whisper Cache has caused some surprise. “I thought this was intentionally impossible,”one player remarked about the drop. “That is extremely rare. I have never encountered it before,”another added.
Prior to Diablo 4 Season 5, the idea of obtaining a Mythic Drop from a Whisper Cache was deemed impossible by many. However, Blizzard implemented changes at the start of the season, enabling any source that grants items with a minimum power of 925 to potentially drop Mythic Uniques.
This involves utilizing Whisper Caches and gambling Obols with Purveyors of Curiosities, Bosses, and Helltides, given the appropriate circumstances. However, obtaining a Mythic unique from sources other than Tormented Echo bosses remains uncommon, as they possess their own loot tables and a notably lower chance of dropping such items.
Despite this, a Shako obtained from a Whisper Cache is equally valuable to one obtained from defeating Uber Duriel. It may even be considered better, considering the ease of completing Whispers.
