Urivar's Hoard has a chance to drop Mythic Uniques. Additionally, opening Urivar's Hoard also has a chance to drop multiple Mythic Uniques!
If you are interested in target farming Mythic Unique Items, repeatedly defeating any of the Lair Bosses is an effective strategy.

|---|
|
|
This attack will rain fireballs across the arena that you can avoid by staying out of the red circles on the ground. The large number of projectiles can be difficult to dodge if you lack mobility and this attack can kill you if you do not have enough resistance.

During the fight, the Butcher will enter a phase where he becomes invulnerable and four lasers begin circling around him. These lasers have small gaps between them that you can run through if you want to stay in your quadrant and avoid the fire on the ground.
Whenever you create some distance between you and the Butcher, he may cast a hook that pulls you toward him. Try to avoid this as much as possible and keep your distance, since most of his attacks are melee.
