Unique Rebalance for The Awakening
" First of all, Mjolner was nerfed in beta from the start almost, we all knew it, at the time it was 30-40 EX. WHICH IS VERY EASY TO OBTAIN IN STANDARD AND MOST PLAYERS THAT REALLY DO PLAY THE GAME, and not cry on forums HAVE. At that point the price started to rise, because greedy people were happy to exploit the possible nerf and get back some of their currency (because some paid a mjolner 100 ex in the past) and others were ready to pay more to risk it going legacy. SO YOU HAD a month TO GET ONE AND RISK IT or to just ignore it. HOW DOES SOMEONE HAVING a legacy ITEM affect your PLAYING? IT DOES NOT, do you play with legacy geared people? NO, you play maps alone or with friends. Do you want to play with a super op broken item, be my guest but farm for it as we all did or chance it or w/e. AND GUESS WHAT, the new Mjolner which will drop will be much cheaper and affordable for those wanted to play the build and try it out, at less risk and investment + IT IS STILL OP because of the unique mechanic and fact ggg worked on giving blood rage to life builds etc. THIS IS JUST FOR THE MJOLNER; other uniques all have their own story. SO PLEASE SPARE US YOUR SORROW cry because you were a pussy or lazy to farm one your self. AND before you say you are a casual with RL; GUESS WHAT ME 2, student, have a part day job, grinding RL like a boss to make it through but still I find some time to have fun in PoE. [Removed by Support] TLDR: HOW DOES A LEGACY ITEM SOMEONE IN DISTANCE HAS CHANGE YOUR GAME EXPERIENCE? IT CHANGES IT ONLY IF YOU ARE JELLOUS OF NOT HAVING IT, and lazy to play for it. Bring the hate! Not going into any reasoning of the change, it was very well expected and needed. Last edited by Support#0000 on Jun 23, 2015, 9:19:19 AM

Holy shit, if Windripper is being legacy'd those legacy values are going waaaay up.

TL;DR
I hope that all these items will still have their legacies after patch. I had this nasty feeling that some of them would be retroactively change. I would be glad though if there were a chance for Mjolner or all the items that have legacies to change back with say, a divination card. Make it a rare divination card, like exalted rare or even rarer and only usable after a certain level or something. The card could be something like this: Name: Exile's Legacy Stats: 4% chance to change back a uniqe item to it's legacy state per card stack: 1/10 10% chance to transmogrify item to rare or magic item upon unsuccesful roll (a drawback, this would not stack) 5% chance to destroy item upon unsuccesful roll (also a drawback, this would not stack either) Flavor text: Let those all who see the light reclaim their long lost might. |

" Love the change but have you made it so that it properly scales with chaos and generic damage increases? Really should be able to invest into a chaos build specialization like this. Before desecrate was released Lightbane Raiment was affected by these modifiers and we are still wondering why this isn't the case for our lovely Death's Oath which is clearly less powerful than that old % of life degeneration Lightbane. So? Has this BUG been fixed? State of Beyond Mechanic: https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/3568084

So after all the balancing (cough nerf) you decided that mjolner the 3 piece uber runner was ok to keep?
I have played low life crit mjolner and know how op that is. I don't mind people owning op items but from a developer's point of view it doesn't make any sense. And i'm sure if they wanted to leave no legacies they could somehow. What i really would like to see is since mjolner is the hammer of thor,god of thunder or whatever,it should use only the power charges from discharge. Iy says lightning spells on hit. I know discharge is a lightning fire cold spell,but it would make sense for mjolner to use only the lightning part of it. Still free endurance and frenzy charges for caster. |

And where is the voltaxic rift buff? ;-; like a bit more crit chance or something like that..
Windripper is the only unique bow used, you guys need to remember that there are some high lvl bows that isn't that used by many players, like the voltaxic rift :P |

1.) If you're going to rebalance things that are game breaking....why have legacy? You are practically saying "RMT players can have more fun than everyone else and we're ok with that"
2.) I only counted 49 uniques, anyone else see that? 3.) That is all |

Yay for prism guardian buff, my fav zookeeper item just better.
I'm also really happy that I don't care about other players "progress" in standard league, so I can simply play it with my <mostly> self found stuff and just enjoy the game. Last edited by Asmosis#7365 on Jun 23, 2015, 9:53:48 AM

" Really wish that would have worked out, but alas it was not to be. They dont buy that :/ This legacy crap is a nightmare when trying to get other gamers into the game. I guess Ill be playing the 4 months as soon as one is up and running with the few ppl still left on my friend list. |
