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

I might actually farm one again. I like the starved environment that is not flooding you with loot and mechanics.
for the first 2 or 3 levels, every drop could be an upgrade. Then you only pick up blue items, slowly get to rares and, if you're lucky, a unique (other than OG, of course).
Finally you're decked out in about the best gear that can drop on Twilight Strand but there's always the hope that the next rare ring that drops has slightly better stats.

And finally you reach a point where you manage to get Brutus down BEFORE he can draw the sword out of his chest and regenerate to full life. :)

Last league I farmed an OG to make a CoMK character, but that didn't really work so well, probably because of poor choices (other than choosing CoMK in the first place, I mean).

Unfortunately I’m committed to using a shield in my current build.

Farming Brutus regardless for a Tabula using the league mechanic gimmick. :)

I was wondering if that would work, what with the wording of the "Her Embrace" buff.
Tell us, once you found out.

Nice ! I'm curious, have you done this grind before ? How does the Uber Hillock fight compare to before ? Did he get buff'd as well ?


Been a while since I done mine. So those gems would likely not even work together now.

Known to happen. I think last league I got one at level 8, the other at 7.8 or something.

Vincere, just couple posts up, posted his he got in Expedition. So still happening.

It usually happens just after you completely sure it is no longer dropping, and you make a post about it in this thread. You will find mine as well.

It's my fifth Oni so yeah, I'm used to it. Uber Hillock feels the same, pretty easy yet long to kill. I didn't notice anything different to be honest.

Tried TecSlam Totem but the DPS feels absolutely garbage. Had to reroll because I couldn't even kill the first dominus sub-bosses on a 5L, WTH. The DPS penalty of earthbreaker + 10% less attack speed of melee physical damage feels HORRIBLE. As for Her Embrace on a totem, I forgot to check before deleting my character, sorry.

Steel Champion running over the early content though.
