Vortex Gaming

· The biggest change in Patch 3.1.1 is that 'The Threshold of Oblivion' now rewards at least one 'Greater Key of Oblivion'. This allows for acquiring significantly more keys than before, creating a favorable environment for unique item farming.
· Previously, you could only equip one unique item at a time, but now you can equip multiple acquired unique items simultaneously, maximizing your character's performance.

· The most efficient way to obtain Greater Keys of Oblivion is by tackling 'The Threshold of Oblivion'. Previously, you had to defeat randomly appearing 'Vallel' or repeatedly defeat normal/nightmare dungeon bosses, but now you can stably acquire keys through 'The Threshold of Oblivion'.
· It's recommended to defeat 'Soul Devourer' every 20 minutes to enter 'The Threshold of Oblivion' and obtain Greater Keys of Oblivion from there.

· While waiting for entry into 'The Threshold of Oblivion', it's advisable to tackle Nightmare Dungeons to collect 'Scraps of Annihilation'. Specifically, activating the 'Nightmare' and 'Siblings' nodes allows you to encounter 'Hellfire' or 'The Butcher' more frequently, gaining additional experience and Scraps of Annihilation.
· During Helltide events, defeating a Greater Rift with 'Cultists' allows entry into a special dungeon leading to 'The Threshold of Oblivion'. This method takes some time but offers bonus farming with Cinders of Calamity, Threats, and extra experience.

· Using the collected Greater Keys of Oblivion, you can challenge 'The Ultimate Nemesis Layer'. Defeating normal dungeon bosses and opening treasure chests unlocks the 'Nemesis Layer', and by defeating more dungeon bosses there, you can enter 'The Ultimate Nemesis Layer'.
· The bosses in 'The Ultimate Nemesis Layer' are very powerful, but they offer a high chance of obtaining unique items along with a vast amount of legendary items. Notably, the patch has been modified so that unique items now drop from specific dungeon bosses, making it possible to farm the unique items you desire.

· If you want to farm for a specific unique item, it's efficient to use sites like 'Diablo Filters (DiabloFilters.com)' to check which dungeon bosses drop the unique items you want and then tackle them.
· For example, if you want the 'Bone Pack' unique item, you can farm by defeating 'The Butcher'.

· If you're short on Normal Keys of Oblivion, you can obtain a large quantity of both normal and Greater Keys of Oblivion by defeating 'Duriel's Onslaught' using the 'Rian Rott' node and 'Devouring Brother' in Helltide events.
· Additionally, you can acquire more Keys of Oblivion by purchasing 'Summoning Chests' from the 'Shop for the Needy' or using 'Fallen Mark'.

· From the Season Renown reward 'Shards of Hope', you can now always obtain 'Scraps of Annihilation'. Furthermore, the number of Scraps of Annihilation required to craft unique items in the 'Hargath Cube' has been reduced from 5 to 4.
· This allows you to craft unique items with desired stats more easily, and especially increases the chance of obtaining unique items with 'Major Affixes', further enhancing your character's performance.

· While unique item farming has become very easy with this patch, the fact that you can still only equip one craftable unique item remains a drawback.
· However, similar to the 'Chaos Unique' season of the past, this season is expected to provide enjoyment to many players with increased fun in unique item farming and character growth potential.
