Summary
- Mythic Uniques like the Harlequin Crest offer unparalleled power with high affix values in the game.
- Crafting the Harlequin Crest in Diablo 4 is a rare stroke of luck for players seeking powerful items. However, one player was lucky enough to do so.
- The Harlequin Crest, now reworked in Diablo 4, remains a coveted item among players for its impressive stats.
An incredibly lucky Diablo 4 player has crafted the Harlequin Crest after several attempts. Diablo 4 is known for the rich variety of items that players find on their adventures through Sanctuary, but some stand out for having an incredible impact on players' builds.
These are the Mythic Uniques, formerly known as Uber Uniques, which are among the most powerful items in Diablo 4. There are currently eight Mythic Uniques in Diablo 4, and the player who is lucky enough to get one will have an item with 925 power and the highest affix values possible. To grab one of these formidable pieces of gear, players can fight Tormented Bosses, defeat monsters from level 55 onwards, or gather Diablo 4's materials to craft them. And thanks to this system, a Diablo 4 player now has one of the game's most powerful items.
Diablo 4 Temporarily Disables Trading in the Game
Diablo 4 announces that Trades are temporarily unavailable, and explains to players what will happen while the problem is investigated.
Reddit user matt303277 is the latest Diablo 4 player to own a Harlequin Crest, this time gotten via crafting. They explained that they had been trying to get a Harlequin Crest with the Greater Affix of cooldown reduction "for a while," but without success. The player finally finished the quest for their Shako recently, obtaining the popular Diablo 4 item with an impressive 30% cooldown reduction. Other equally huge stats of the Mythic Unique item include 2,775 maximum life and 3,750 armor. By comparison, some of the item's base stats grant 1,850 maximum health and 2,500 armor.
Harlequin Crest is one of Diablo 4's Most Coveted Items
In the race to obtain Mythic Uniques, the Harlequin Crest is a popular choice among players. Considered one of the best Uniques in Diablo 4, Shako is a general Mythic Unique item, meaning that players can equip the item regardless of the class they are playing. Previously, to use the Harlequin Crest, Diablo 4 players had to be level 35, a restriction removed after the item's rework. With the rework, Shako has become even more coveted because, coupled with the Greater Affix and Masterworking upgrades, players can achieve a whopping 54% cooldown reduction.
The Harlequin Crest remains one of Diablo 4's most beloved items even after the rework, but this isn't the only recent change made to the itemization of Blizzard's RPG. In Season 5, Diablo 4 revamped all Unique items, including Mythic Uniques, spicing up the gameplay experience. For those who have yet to obtain Shako or another of these important items, players have discovered a new method of farming Mythics in Diablo 4 that could prove useful.
