    I would hope at least for the weapons the major IDs are found on more than item, needing a mythic to be a good group tank or having to use a level 11 bow for those fat storm arrows doesn't sound good to me. and the ones that don't specifically relate to an ability should be available across all classes.

    Other than that, i'm excited for this, awesome way to bring bad items back into the spotlight (pandemonium!!!) but i'm still hoping we'll see the elemental revamp at some point, perhaps with 1.20?

    The whole revamp was really solid imo, the two major downsides to pushing it was ruining most current builds, not actually bad but a big up-front turnoff for a lot of people, and the rest of the game not being able to support the depths the 10 gear archetypes were presenting.

    Hopefully people open up more to the revamp after these major IDs, and we get some actual endgame group PvE activity and quality of life changes that encourages playing those archetypes to their fullest.

    But overall, I think this will make items way more unique and I think it will make you actually remember them.

    I can't even begin to imagne what a nightmare that must have been to code.
    Good work, programmers!

    First, holy crap. This is great and will do more to specialize and differentiate builds than the Item revamp would've IMO.

    Second, I'm REALLY hoping that either Mythics are made more common or the perks on them are also on other weapons.

    Third, I hope boss altar items (Nona, Eidolon, Tera, Dondasch and Breakbore) get some of these perks, and its not just legendaries and mythics.

    Fourth, THANK YOU. THIS is how you communicate. A little bit of information to let us know what we're dealing with, but not enough that any changes become a problem.

    Fifth, I currently have a giant, 2000 word essay detailing a lot of my criticisms with Wynn that I need to go through and edit in the wake of this.

    I mean its a 1/16 chance. Realistically speaking, its much more likely that
    -you'll use a transportation spell that actively harms your positioning (3/16)
    -you'll use a short range spell that doesn't reach your target (5/16)
    -you'll use a lower damage utility spell (3/16)

    Unless you get super lucky, you’ll only be casting a meteor once every 2.5 minutes

    if this hasn't already been thought of (or even implemented) yet, set bonuses including major IDs would be really cool, it would give a whole new purpose to sets

    Pandemonium is probably never going to be used with assassin; trying to vanish away and then getting fucked by a forced charge sounds like a bad time

    I actually cannot believe that all of the Pandemoniums I've been hoarding might be worth something now.

    Not sure if this has been mentioned yet but the text doesn't look very aesthetically pleasing. Perhaps move it down a line, remove the colon and replace it with a dash. Also would be nice to see it mention that it is an item ability, new players might find it confusing and ponder what exactly that blue line of text is. Other than that this looks interesting and I'm looking forward to the 1.19 update.
