My opinion is keep the drop chance but increase the lv requirement to drop, example up to lv 15 instead of lv 7

I'm usually very polite in my forum posts but GGG has gotten me pissed off but good this time. Level 7+ and the current rng chance to get uber Hillock was perfect. To change that is fucking stupid. Even then bad rng pushed the grind for uber Hillock into level 8 (my last one was 12% into 8) sometimes and that is a fucking huge more time than level 7. Two other drops were into the 90% range in level 7. So increasing the level required to even get the rng chance to get uber Hillock is just more fucking stupidity. Decreasing the rng chance to get uber Hillock or increasing his damage is also fucking stupid. ARRGGHHH!!!!... another epic failure move by GGG.

The Oni exemple is the exact point where GGG loses touch with today's video games. I mean come on, farming the same area for 4/5 hours today is almost near OCD. There is no fun and 5 hours of gaming takes a lot of time for most of the players. There's a lot of casual players that spend between 45 minutes and 1 hour per day, not even playing every day. GGG you don't realize how much 5 hours of grind is. 5h is almost the length of an actual video game's story mode.

I'm not farming it anymore, it's ridiculous. Time is valuable, even when playing video game. People have lives. Anyway, just my 2cts.

Pretty sure he didn't want it like this like 100% sure when he comes back hes going to tell me this is the dumbest shit ever >.>

I thought Charon (aka The_Scourge) was very smart in how he developed his sword and my hat is off to him for adding this great weapon to PoE with voice output (I love the Jack The Axe comments too). If he is in agreement with GGG on reducing the rng chance to find uber Hillock then my admiration of his accomplishment will be forever gone. He can't have wanted the sword to be even harder to farm. Please say it ain't so?

Thanks for pointing me to the Reddit link. The OP should have included it.

i'mma gonna be spending the first few days farming for an oni-g. not just for the oni-g itself: i wanna know how difficult uber-hillock is. (he was stupidly easy before.)

Now having read The_Scourge Reddit post I'm definitely nerfing my mtx purchasing rate. My hand has been bitten so "no soup food for you" GGG.

Edit: I'm damn glad I believe in the Law of Fives and took the time to get 5 Oni swords before the stupid drop rate nerf. I feel like Bones in stating that "I'm sure you noticed the delight aspect of this place nerf" about the "Givers of pain and delight". In PoE GGG is "the givers of pain and delight" and it appears from my "filthy casual" player perspective that GGG delights in giving much pain.

Sorry, I would have included that link if I knew that it existed. I am however not a fan of reddit and so stay away form the place.

Personally, knowing a little of the history of the sword its in the right spot to farm, and increasing the variance of the drop level wise is kinda cool. The Uberhillock fight was always interesting
at level 7, I can't imagine it at level 1 or 2. The odds of having somewhat decent level gear at that point in time is very low.

Cheers,
Matt.

** Edit: How much variance? If this thing can drop at level 2 it's possible, however unlikely that it will become available during a race if you kill enough at the beginning of strand...... ?
