unique items *no longer updated*

To my knowledge unarmed was never any of the above. It's damaged can still be increased by general melee physical damage and general elemental damage (not WED).

To Mark ad Covert, obviously unarmed wouldn't make much sense to be 2-handed, and I don't know for sure if it was officially 1-handed or not, But I was informed that shield charge used to work with it, and I know myself that it used to be considered dual wielding (which was cool). That's what I am mostly just talking about. I wouldn't think that it was direct balance fixing for unarmed (for obvious reasons), but still kinda unknown to me why it changed in general.

indeed! I've seen someone in chat say my unique sucks, which is fine. It's a bit niche, but I'm happy it's there. Especially since it caused a support gem to get created too :P

Which one's yours? Brightbeak?
I changed my mind about it, I think it's pretty reasonable now (although I still think all resistances wouldn't have hurt). I didn't think of all it's uses when I first thought and wrote about it.

I believe he's talking about Moonsorrow and the Blind support gem.

Both are awesome.

Edit: With the low level axe and the stealth boots, we have all 13 for this patch. No more uniques for now then?

By my count, Rime Gaze, Darkscorn, Sin Trek and Limbsplit bring the total up to 90 known uniques. There's still 1 left, and we still don't actually know anything about what Rime Gaze is only that it exists. Was the last one posted somewhere and I just missed it?

Maybe the last item is Demigod's Revenge? =P

I think the key mistake here is us giving it out as a prize for the event. Note that there were other prizes - up to $50 of microtransaction credit, demigod's revenges (probably worth 100x more than that Map), and 350 currency random items (also worth probably 30x more than the Map).

An honest mistake? Perhaps. Accidental or intentional 'slip'? We just don't know.

original facebreaker (actually a really old legacy one)

ignore the poison resist stats (gems)

The unique item GGG and I have been working on is almost complete. Those who like fire spells should keep an 'eye' out for it.

I may or may not be able to provide artwork for it soon. I think it looks great, but I am biased.

I didn't see this around yet:

when Act 3 releases and the leveling curve shifts, who knows whether a level 66 bow is the best available?

well past level 60 items don't really increase in DPS though, so unless they change that (by maybe adding items that go from level 70 to 80 being the ones who's DPS don't change) then anything aside from a new unique wouldn't really be any better.

You forget higher level affixes.

Unavailable

looks like that will be a standard for CI bow users

Have they announced anything about prefixes on items such as:
xSkill on hit, xskill on crit and so on?

Or my favorite from Diablo 2...Cast level 40 Poison Nova on level up! A completely gimmick attribute, but as long as you don't weight it too heavily on uniques so that it doesn't take away from more practical mods, it's a lot of fun to have that kind of stuff on your uniques.

That bow looks pretty sick. May have to build a CI Shadow with that bow in mind...
