" I wish a Talisman had a separate equipment slot rather than taking up the Amulet slot. :-( Seems like all existing ammies will be less valuable now. Sad. I liked Astramentis, but maybe there'll be an "astramentis-like" possibility.	Posted by Norc on Dec 1, 2015, 2:31:05 PM Quote this Post
Will the talisman specific modifiers be server side this time so people can't spoil the science with datamining? :p I'm guessing the uniques have fixed implicits? Could a low tier unique talisman drop from a higher tier with an additional implicit? Is there any possibility of getting some more spoilers on implicits? :p About amulets being replaced, I don't think every build will get a new BiS ammy, but RF could probably use 50% of cold damage taken as fire, for example. Other nice things would be charge duration, charge maximum, charge effects, at least dexterity will get a scaling increase mod, weapon range could be awesome etc. Gravity is just a prejudice. A part of Earth's jurisdiction. As an apache helicopter, I find that very oppressive. Last edited by Zorajin on Dec 1, 2015, 4:05:13 PM	Posted by Zorajin on Dec 1, 2015, 2:50:30 PM Quote this Post

" The set of Talismans for Standard and Hardcore are different from each other - you can find a few base types specific to each league. Here I was happy that you finally did away with the requirement to play both leagues and you come and do this...

I hope there is interesting new skill and passive tree revamp in the next league, since i'm more interested in making builds and exploring interesting gameplay mechanics. The usual grind and getting screwed over by bad rng even if talismans are powerful wont keep me playing for long. Lab is a chore Delve / Harbinger / Incursion / Delirium best leagues.

T2 decides T3. T3 decides T4. The question was probably wether IIR affected T1 which they have answered is not the case. As the T1 amulets are generated together with the zone they should not be affected by player stats. Tl;dr All players will have the same odds of getting rare talismans. IIR should have no effect.

Will Standard players get to participate, or are they screwed over yet again?	Posted by Siochan on Dec 1, 2015, 7:25:20 PM Quote this Post
