Duriel & Uber Boss Target Farming in Diablo 4 Season 9 – How to Farm Mythic Uniques Efficiently

Season 9: Sins of the Horadrim is here, and so is your best chance to get the most powerful loot in Diablo 4: Mythic Uniques. Whether you’re after Harlequin Crest, Doombringer, or class-specific god-rolls, targeted Uber Boss farming is the only consistent way to get them.

In this guide, we’ll walk you through how to farm Duriel, Andariel, Belial, and more for optimal drop rates, how Resplendent Sparks work, and the best strategies to maximize your time and gold.


🧬 What Are Mythic Uniques?

  • Mythic Uniques are Season 9’s highest-tier items, offering build-defining powers.

  • Only drop from Uber-level bosses in Torment I–IV or via Resplendent Spark crafting.

  • Drop chance is approximately 2% per kill on Torment IV—very low, but targetable.


πŸ—Ί️ Bosses That Drop Mythic Uniques

πŸ”₯ Duriel, King of Maggots

  • Best Mythic drop rate of all bosses.

  • Requires 3 Shards of Agony + 3 Slime-Covered Incubators.

  • Great for farming Harlequin Crest, Doombringer, Tempest Roar, and more.

πŸ•·️ Andariel, Maiden of Anguish

  • Drops mostly the same loot pool as Duriel.

  • Requires 3 Pincushioned Dolls + 3 Shards of Agony.

  • More Poison-based builds can benefit from her unique items.

🐍 Belial, Lord of Lies

  • Highest chance for Ancestral Uniques on chest open.

  • Mythic drop rate slightly below Duriel/Andariel.

  • Requires 3 Rotten Cores + 3 Abhorrent Hearts.

🐐 Harbinger of Hatred (Uber Lilith Variant)

  • Rarely farmed due to difficulty but drops all Mythics, especially The Grandfather and Melted Heart.


πŸ’Ž How to Get Resplendent Sparks

Resplendent Sparks are used to craft Mythic Uniques at the Jeweler (targeted) or Blacksmith (random).

  • How to Earn Sparks:

    • Salvaging duplicate Mythic Uniques = 1 Spark

    • First kill of Tormented Boss = 1 Spark (once per account)

    • Uber Lilith clear = 1 Spark

  • Crafting Costs:

    • πŸ”Έ 2 Sparks

    • πŸ’° 50M Gold

    • πŸ’  Various Runes (Farmed from Strongholds/Nightmares)

πŸ’‘ Pro tip: If you loot a duplicate Mythic, don’t sell—salvage it to build toward the Mythic you actually want.
