Unique items feel very bad.

+1. Make uniques great again.

Until then change their color to brown so players know it's just a turd.

For the most part, yeah, most of them are really bad.

I have a random unique topaz ring, it has some lightning resist, a penalty to cold resist, and a bit of mana regen. Not even more of the bonuses than you can get on an equivalent level yellow ring either. Dafuq am I supposed to do with that?

90% of all uniques were GARBO in POE1.

No wonder its same here.

Most of them were designed to be things you could slap on a low or mid level character as something that would help get to real gear, and most of the ones that didn't even work for that were jokes that you could giggle at. I quite liked the design tbh, basic items that do something useful to get you through to the real loot that takes time / levels / investment to get equiped, and funny jokes like veil of night or voidhome that are great for a chuckle.

PoE2's uniques largely don't even fill that role. More than half of them are equivalent power to joke tier, which rather nullifies the point.

The devs are obsessed with putting negative mods on uniques. Please stop! Unless the unique has something insane on it to justify a negative mod don't do it!

I'd thank you very much to leave my veil of night alone please sir.

I giggle like an idiot every time I identify one.

Lol

Omg even if it was 100% increased life it wouldn't be close to usable.

I agree, everytime I see uniqu I check stat and there is always some big ass penalty. I have seen only 1 usable wand for my build but even then it was average and not worth

There are exactly ZERO unique weapons worth using. What a tragedy. Looks like all the creativity and power went into making jewelry. A damn shame since it's so boring and doesn't feel special at all.
