i feel the legendary item system needs some tweaks

[Herozen]

the current system for aquiring legendary items feels too RNG heavy to really be worth the frustration it causes. so i've thought up a few changes, for both legendary potential AND weaver's will

LP: instead of consuming 1 exaulted per LP point, LP is now consumed all at once to take MULTIPLE stats from the exaulted at once. you still have to put in plenty of work to get a good exalted item and max it out before use. but now LP 3's and 4s are a lot more valuable as that work now has an actual promise of good results instead of spending multiple weeks farming exalted items with good stats and a L4 item just to get physical res, mana, poison res and 1 level in that 1 skill you won't be caught dead using.

WW: Weaver's will now PRIORITISES stats the class thats using it wants. no more strength on your acolytes. no more minion damage on your marksman. still random, but more favourable than just being a complete crapshoot

inb4 the hoard of mouth breathers chanting "hurr durr you don't NEED legendary items! my (totally not bug exploiting) character can push 50 billion waves in arena in 3 seconds with just uniques and exalteds!!!"

[BobOnix]

ah ♥♥♥♥ you mean 0.00017% drop rate for an lp4 is not enough?

weavers will as implemented is just wasted design space. I also expected a better evolution than D3s gearing, but this one is strictly worse as far as ive been able to see so far.

Also, inb4 Kmany reads this:)

The RNG is in a perfect place for legendary crafting. It gives plenty of reason to keep farming looking for exalteds to try. What you are essentially doing is asking to eliminate the end game metaloop so you can have everything. But why? Once you have everything you could possibly want, you will have no reason to play the game.

Getting two good affixes on an LP2 is pretty easy to do. And you can really push corruption levels with just that.

I think the only issue with legendary crafting is having to go through the dungeon. It should be more streamlined. The fact they are eliminating some of the roadblocks is a good move.

just because rng favours you, does not mean a system is good. and do you know what else will stop people from playing the game? the game not respecting the time put in


i guarentee if these changes went into effect, NOONE would be complaining, you included

I'll repeat. Getting two good affixes on a 2LP is easy to do. Objectively. Maybe it will take you two or three attempts but you'll get good affixes on there. If that's too much for you, perhaps ARPG loot hunters aren't for you. Eliminating the end game metaloop is not the answer.

i would repeat, but when an idiot doesn't bother to actually read the 1st time, they probably won't the 2nd or 3rd.

Consuming one item and adding multiple stats from there at once (one per lp) is already how it works for me. I don't understand the suggestion.

can only agree on boss specific drops
2LP uniques already feels very common on 250 corruption + circle of fortune
don't agree on WW, i need strength for my build on acolyte bcuz Cleaver Solutions unique is present

[Operation40]

I just hate having to walk thru the dungeon again every time I want to gamba my LP
what a waste of time
