Uber is a slang term in gaming communication. It means super or supreme or ultra, and is often applied to a powered-up version of a character, item, quest, monster, etc.
The word itself is German, and literally means "above," "over," or "across." It is often used as a prefix in German, in words such as "overpass" to simply mean a road that passes over another road, without any of the "super" connotations it has in English. See [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/%C3%9Cber the wikipedia article] for more linguistic and etymological details.
==Ubers in the Diablo Games==
In Diablo 2 and Diablo 3, "uber bosses" or "Ubers" are souped up versions of regular bosses with new abilities and changed appearances.
Diablo 2 featured Uber Diablo, Uber Baal, and Uber Mephisto in the so-alled Uber Tristram as part of the {{Pandemonium_Event Pandemonium Event}}. (To be specific, it's actually Pandemonium Diablo in Uber Tristram, as the name "Uber Diablo" had previously been used for another "uber" version of the demon in another [[end game]] special event.)
Diablo 3 got its own Ubers as part of the [[Infernal Machine]] event, where players must battle two Ubers at a time in three different levels to obtain the Demonic Organs required to create the [[Hellfire Ring]].
* The [[Realm of Discord]]. Battle Uber versions of [[King Leoric]] and [[Maghda]] for a chance to obtain the [[Writhing Spine]].
* The [[Realm of Chaos]]. Battle Uber versions of [[Ghom]] and [[Rakanoth]] for a chance to obtain the [[Devil's Fang]].
* The [[Realm of Turmoil]]. Battle Uber versions of [[Siegebreaker_Assault_Beast|Siege Breaker]] and [[Zoltun Kulle]] for a chance to obtain the [[Vengeful Eye]].
