Game needs Eternals back (and here's why) |Petition|

Besides, TheAnuhart has already shown that top-end crafting is even a thing when playing solo selffound.

Uhm, not with the eternal orb in the scenario.

Anuhart pointed out that currently you can spend a decent amount of currency with feasible returns/results if so desired.

Which is a direct result of eternals leaving the play-field and being compensated by master benches.

What he is saying is that crafting top-end was incredibly expensive pre-master/eternal existence and that in the current game-state it can actually be done.

And that eternals where sold to cheap for actual rarity.(which is accurate)

you can't neglect the things GGG implemented or changed with eternals gone and then use them in an argument pro-eternals.

If eternals come back, bench crafts are out again, plain and simple. And bench crafts are easily more rewarding to the community as a whole.(for semi-top-end crafts obviously, low benches could still exist)

Peace,

What? No you can't craft top tier without eternals. You can do a lot but you can't get mirror worthy.



How would you ever complete that with master mods? You don't. You let it rot in stash because it's too much invested to throw away on a yolo ex and get 1-34 lightning damage.

That sword is already top-tier, it's not mirror worthy(yet?), but definitely top tier.

What the hell you on about?

You can craft top tier with benches and that's plenty for completing the content and it's a lot more accessible then exalt/eternal crafting ever was, which is a major boon for the entire community.

Talk about a first world perspective.

You can (could) crash instances and undo an exalt outcome though. It has happened and will most likely happen again. Thankfully GGG is good at patching it and banning whoever exploits it.

I do not understand logic behind removing of eternals either. What was the point of this?

Boem,

Keep in mind I'm sure you and I could both "clear the content" with all blue items. It's really easy if you use the strong skills of the meta. What about having the best items for pvp, or for simply wanting to have cooler shit than your friends? I feel like that's why alot of people play.

The next step should be Altering the Mirror function to a situation where upon 'mirroring', the host item becomes locked as well as the resulting copy. This goofy nonsense of having infinite clone-stamping of a singular rare is ridiculous.

That wouldn't be much better than removing Mirrors completely. The trade value of two such mirrored items would still be less than (best case scenario: only slightly less than) the average cost to craft the original + 1 mirror. You'd still have high end crafting discouraged.

I guess the other thing we have now is crafting-only affixes. Stuff like Eleron's and Vagan's. In those items you have incentive to craft, but it might feel weird in a Mirrorless system if those were the only items worth directly using currency on.

As Anuhart pointed out, master crafting metamods simulate the Eternal Orb functions in a less abusive fashion, but still worlds away from the Alt-Regal-Exaltx3 crafting which the game began with (except for the last Exalt). Crafting doesn't even want Eternals as much as it used to.
