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

Got my first Oni at level 7,5, my second one at level 8,2.

I am still, casually logging in my other char every day for the 3rd one. I play SSF so not looking to sell the extra ones. It's just that the rolls on the first 2 are not too great, 78 and 74% to crit.

Just got my Oni with one character at 7.25. Didn't really min max anything (was playing a Duelist without any movespeed boots) and only used one character, but I'd log in every now and then while watching streams/waiting in League queues. Overall pretty happy I got this lucky! Total time /played on that character was 1 hr 35 min. The fight itself was pretty spooky. With the new buffs to his abilities and not having a ranged attack, I was worried I might rip.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but you don't lose the spawn if you die... you just have to run back from the start.

Not sure about standard, but ripping in Twilight Strand in HC will force you to create a new instance when clicking resurrect.

That's correct for softcore leagues. I think I even died in Oni-Goroshi instance when I had to AFK.

How many OG are there in HC? Uber Hilock is a nightmare for new exiles... Do you go to SC if you die to him?

Yes, you go to SC. I didn't find the fight particularly hard for my Duelist, do people really find him that difficult?

Also, if there is any Cleave-addicts club... I probably should join. Whatever I plan to play, I always end up switching to Cleave.

Still farming the second one, but I noticed that as much running for the first sword is often kind of fun and relaxing, the runs after I get my first become extremely tedious. Scions are fun, but I regret I made a Marauder, wanted to try melee ASAP and try Hillock with different classes.

I am working on it so I can finish my set. If another sword in the set comes out I will have to farm for that thing too.

Correct, if you are not HC

I am the same way. I start with good intentions to try something new, but it is never quite the same. Cleave just feels right: 2H, duel wielding or 1H with a shield.

My favorite is two Soul Takers. When i take a break from Legion, I'm going to rebuild that guy in Standard with the new tree and gems. I know it will be awesome.
