Eternal Orb Speculation
|
When used on a map the map dont get consumed when used so the map can be used over and over for experience. Downside is the map drop no loot or other maps.

" Well that's just typical, twitter before forum. I'm gonna stick with my idea but add. Locking the socket links on an item so they can't unlink while attempting to further link. Orb is account bound on pickup, item is account bound on use of orb. Casually casual.

You're not going to know if you get it right. When it comes out, it comes out.
And this is the super secret surprise announced by Chris. IRON MAN

adds or substracts an affix to the item in question , can go beyond 6 affixes.
adds +1 quality to the item used upon , can go up to 40% quality. makes a map rare and unidentified , playing the map will spawn random mods , killing the boss will spawn a portal which takes you to a 1 level higher map with new random mods. 50% chance of adding an affix to an item , 50% destroying the item used upon , can go beyond 6 affixes. some orbs i think would help out the game , really would love to see one of them |

" It's not typical - it's very rare. Almost every time we do our news announcements, I post them to the announcements forum and link that post in the twitter feed and on the facebook page. You can see that that pattern extends back to late last year. Teasing small pieces of information to Twitter very rarely is a pretty harmless way to make a fun treasure hunt out of upcoming content.

" Calling it now: orb that prevents sockets/links being degraded on rerolls. Currency item that you can put into that valuable 5L/6S rare tri-res chest you've got so you can keep using it while trying to upgrade. |

Eternal orb will upgrade rare item to epic item.
Patch will introduce epic and/or set items. IGN: Antomon

" they already said they wouldn't make set items |

My guess is either two things: like others mentioned, similair as a divine orb, but it will reroll the mods themselves rather then just the values.
Another thing; perhaps something to do with maps, mayby add an experience gain when used on a map, or adding new mods that increases exp gain with some downside with it (makes the map harder, like normal mods). Or mayby removes a part or entire quantity on a map and converts to exp gain (would be OP?). Imagen a 100+ IIQ map that gets converted to 100% exp gain. I hope it has something to do with maps :) " Set bonusses* We already have 'set' items, like the koam uniques. Last edited by fgcewoud#6273 on May 24, 2013, 8:09:50 AM

Maybe it's an 8-shaped orb that just sits in your stash forever and does nothing. You can't throw it away, you can't use, you can only look at it and ponder its meaning. Forever.
