New Identifications?

As far as I know, there have been no new identifications since the Gavel Update. In addition, suggestions about new identifications seem to be very rare to non-existent.
Is there a reason for this? Aren't there any good ideas for new ids? Or would it require too much effort coding-wise to add some new ones? Because in terms of item making, it shouldn't be too much work to adjust some items that are supposed to get new ids, at least compared to the amount of items that are changed through balance updates. Also, these new identifications don't have to be put on hundreds of items as they are being introduced, they can be added to more and more items over time, especially if we are talking about some "special" ids like attack speed bonus, which still only exists on 56 items.

 

its because we dont really need new identifications, mythics are already very rare, uniques are already very common and i dont think we need something between uniques and rares / rares and legendaries / legendaries and mythics

Also I'm not sure if they're even able to add new IDs to existing items.

 

they can do anything with the game, they just dont

 

Uhhh
No

 

I heard somewhere that adding new IDs is currently impossible, they'd have to redo their item system or something like that (I think Selvut said that).
Even though people seem to be against the idea of new IDs, I'd personally love that!

 

With identifications I don't mean rarity tiers but things like life steal, exploding or walk speed.

They have already done it before (like with the new Lunar Spine), although items collected before the update need a reroll to get the new ids. So not really an optimal solution, but at least it's possible for ids that are in the game, just not on a specific item.

Then let's hope they will change it at some point, I'd also like to see new IDs, adding more options and variety without having to change the games core mechanics would be great!
