Media Community Thoughts About Items

well is there another way to make you glass? -elemental defs

 

yeah on weapons -ele def is a joke lol

 

it works right? couldnt you put like -5k on each element or something

 

then you literally just get 0 ele def in the other elements lol
edit: and if you dont want to do that.. then literally just go for agi as secondary and the dmg breaks the game again lol

 

but agility isnt guaranteed survival every hit, and theres could be a negative agility stat

 

that legit wouldnt make sense with the item at this point. Its literally just desperately trying to balance something broken without actually looking at the item itself but just because of bias towards getting the damage.

that with -agi? lolno it doesnt make sense. You are just forcing ridiculous stats on the item at this point. The fact that you have to resort to this already proves that its previous dmg was massively broken .-.

 

no

 

does it make sense to make an item bad in the way it was meant to be good?

 

CountBurn,

I have read your feedback regarding the items. I see you have a strong believe we should have added stronger negatives rather than nerfing the Cata's damage. From our standpoint, it were never IDs that were the issue, it was the damage. It was just too much for us to not take any action. If we did leave the damage and improve the negatives then someone else would have been unsatisfied. And let's say we do that, leave the damage and increase the negatives, then others have right to ask for same. We could give stratiformis 500 walk speed and -10k health and call it balanced. That's not how we do things. There are certain set of values we follow, and not following them only brings more issues. It's not only about the idea of the weapon, it's also how it fits into the current system.

I am sorry for the inconvenience we have caused you regarding the nerf. It's not our intention to sadden you or to make you less motivated to play, we only want to balance the game so everyone can enjoy it equally.

 

Maybe there could be a compromise, as in a slight nerf in multiple aspects of the item. Like with Cata, it could've had a slight nerf in damage, health, dexterity requirement, dexterity bonus, and walk speed instead of one big nerf in damage. It would be a bit harder to make decent builds, but would not break any builds, and will remain as a glass cannon.

 

There i think that fits the change you are proposing more.

and yes i agree thats completely trash with 9mr and an almost 80%chance of getting the crit damage lmao

 

I was about to post a message about Pandemonium as it requires ??? to wear, arguably the hardest quest, yet it seems to not be good enough to be in most builds

 

yeah blame salted for that ;-; he wont let us make it something actually useful so our hands are tied :/

 

@Liangs
link to your 15k spin inferno balanced out build please

 

No prob man, I feel ya. Pandemonium is only one item anyways...

I'ma start with a joke: The only thing that is unique about unique items is that most of them are shit.
Buff Unique Items thanks, only like a select few are good. I just generally think the main problem of Unique Items is the fact that they provide absolutely pitiful health compared to other Rares/Legendaries (Some exceptions though) and the benefits they provide are negligible (Again, exceptions). I'm very lazy to continue explaining at this point.

Why not make an item similar to it, just under a different name? Or the new proposed item must pass through the all mighty Salted/Selvut?

 

That's quite literally Knucklebones, which Selvut made.

 

That's quite disheartening, why would Salted keep an item in game that everyone just sells to the item buyer anyways?

 

He wants the items to be memorable and in a way he achieved that with pandemonium by making it especially bad i guess :/ Thats why we arent allowed to change it -.-
