Over time, many changes tot he game are making uniques lose their identity and place.

I am only going to pick on one, however, every unique is eventually being replaced by a basic goodstuffs rare. So most of the flair of a unique is lost.

I love sire of shards. However, there is no reason to use one. I can slot in a nova projectile and sac a little damage, but more than make up for it in the rare mods.

I loved when crucible offered something for uniques (poe1). And I was hoping for something akin to that here in poe2.

GGG, please add some meta crafting per league that can tack on something to uniques. Maybe a currency slam that adds a mod, or boost existing mods. Like a rune/socketable that can add or boost existing affixes.

I would love nothing more than to use the uniques for their build defining properties. But they just don't matter.
