Diablo 4 Season 6: Unique Item Farming Made (Way) Easier!
Target Farming Unique Items in Diablo 4 Season 6: A Purveyor of Curiosities Guide
Season 6 of Diablo 4 brought some serious changes, most importantly, a much-needed buff to the Purveyor of Curiosities! This vendor is your new best friend for target farming specific Unique Items. Before, your only real option for getting that sweet, sweet unique loot was farming Tormented Bosses— which involved many boss summoning materials! Now? It is way easier, making farming those Legendary Items, even uniquely powerful items, a surprisingly simple process. Get ready, because this changes everything.
Farming Unique Items through bosses hasn’t completely been replaced however, as farming those Tormented Bosses still matters in Season 6 and those methods continue to remain one of the better methods, yet it does still remain extremely inefficient in many circumstances for those wanting those very specific legendary items. It’s especially tedious unless you’re already doing Nightmare Dungeons (and you’ll need a huge stockpile of those boss-summoning materials anyway!), thus necessitating a significant alteration of farming strategies. So, let’s check out the easy new route to those uniquely powerful drops, starting with how that amazing vendor helps make it a significantly simpler undertaking and those easier ways that are now easier to farm those rare items!
The Purveyor of Curiosities: Your New Go-To for Unique Items
Before Season 6, the Purveyor of Curiosities was a bit of a joke. Mostly just rare and magic items, mostly worthless in endgame play! It was a very unreliable Farming location, thus emphasizing why it really failed for those desiring end-game-tier unique and legendary equipment. It’s different now. The drop rates for legendary items are higher – it also now has unique items added, providing significant amounts of improvement that makes target farming for unique items far more convenient and effective than previously possible.
To target farm, simply spend Obols on the gear you need. For instance, let's say you’re looking for that awesome Rod of Kepeleke (it's a seriously sought-after unique quarterstaff). Since there are only two unique Spiritborn Quarterstaffs – this becomes extremely significant and effective when considering target-Farming – you have a 50% chance of scoring that perfect weapon! You can also get the other Quarterstaff that appears within that very specific loot table from this same vendor and these high rates make farming uniquely valuable gear an actual possibility and extremely accessible to players now, emphasizing exactly just why the implementation changes to this Purveyor is extremely significant!
| Purveyor of Curiosities (Spiritborn) | Item Received | Obols Cost |
|---|---|---|
| Polearm | 100 | |
| Glaive | 100 | |
| Quarterstaff | 100 | |
| Cap | 50 | |
| Tunic | 25 | |
| Gloves | 50 | |
| Boots | 25 | |
| Pants | 25 | |
| Ring | 50 | |
| Amulet | 100 |
This approach sounds fantastic, yet requires a very important element for continued efficiency and ongoing use: It means needing a massive supply of Obols. So how do you efficiently farm them? It does require grinding but the improvements made also allows additional means that make this easier for players. We will talk about the best farming strategies shortly after reviewing why you might actually prefer these unique weapons and the ongoing effectiveness for higher levels!
Farming Obols: The Best Ways to Stock Up!
The best method for farming obols now involves grinding the Artificer's Pit! Way faster than Nightmare Dungeons— this activity alone would already generate a massive amount of gains towards those legendary, rare and unique items, which really matters, because in addition to all the gains toward obols alone, this becomes significantly easier to level glyphs; now reworked, that makes these things an immensely useful and invaluable process overall, generating not only legendary items but those amazing, incredibly important glyphs as well! It makes all this immensely worthwhile. According to RageGamingVideos’s YouTube insights, Legendary Items are significantly more rare this season. So stock up now!
Those higher level Tormented Bosses continue to matter. They have a shot at dropping Ancestral Unique items (which now have Greater Affixes— even more beneficial!). Also note how this changes depending on level; and that this becomes particularly ineffective early on.
Conclusion: A Much-Needed Upgrade to Unique Item Farming
The changes made to the Purveyor of Curiosities are extremely significant, because they are game-changing for this entire game: It makes finding and using those uniquely powerful and rare weapons far easier; even enabling the possibility for specific targeting towards extremely useful and beneficial equipment! So many Legendary Items can be generated! The removal of Stygian Stones means more accessible Tormented Boss farming (still better for those hard-to-find ancestral unique items). Now? You got both methods; each optimized and balanced, generating both a far more effective system overall!
