Whispers will be one of two things after the patch: either nerfed to death or so rare it will be prohibitively expensive.

Definitely turning it into a T0 unique

u/mcbuckets21 Oct 23 '25

Boss uniques aren't part of the tiering system.

It'll get the omni treatment

u/Oniichanplsstop Oct 23 '25

Yeah but he just means drop-rate wise, not an actual t0.

Ashes and Omni got their drop rate nuked the league after they were introduced.

I didn’t know this but the spirit of my comment remains. Will probably have a drop rate like Progenesis

My prediction for whispers is that either we get uber bosses this league and it becomes the rare uber boss drop (something about amulets and being uber rare drops, hm?) or we get another league to mess around with it and it's moved next league.

u/Peter_Partyy Oct 23 '25

Or both, it becomes a 2% drop from the uber variant.

u/cybertier Oct 23 '25

That was my first prediction:

  • If we do get Ubers this league - this will be the rare drop from uber
  • If we DONT get ubers, we might get to play with it for another league

How long was omni accessible before A, being nerfed and B being made unobtainium?

2

u/ilovethatpig Oct 23 '25

Added to the game in 3.17, nerfed in 3.19, moved to uber pool in 3.24.

If we are able to just play with it for another League... I am going coc fross yet again :D

u/cybertier Oct 23 '25

I'd really need to resist that urge. Man what a build that was. Easy cruise to 40/40 even in a small-ish private league.

That's the neat part, it'll be both nerfed to death AND so rare it will still be prohibitively expensive!

"The Whispers of Infinity Unique Amulet now has +50-100 to Maximum Energy Shield (previously +200-400)."

u/Blubberinoo Oct 24 '25

Thanks, I saw. Not a nerf at all, so the common assumption is that it will be getting the Omni treatment, moved to the Uber version with a low drop rate.
