Honestly it's...a rather ackward change to fuck with your head.


I understood it immediately on alpha and appreciated it with as fresh a perspective as I could manage (not hard when you start over a lot as part of your testing process), but once you factor in legacy items and other standard gear, it gets really messy.


Messy? It's straight-up bullshit! Thanks to all who've explained this in this thread. I was just as confused as the OP.

What I haven't seen addressed is why Mali's isn't going to get the new mods.

Also, WTF is Fragment of Eternity (the Descent: Champions Unique) doing in the 'needs to be divined to get new mods' list?

Just a lowly standard player. May RNGesus be with you.
Thankfully I don't focus on standard.

Yeah, so about that Tipua Kaikohuru...
If I like a game, it'll either be amazing later or awful forever. There's no in-between.

GGG just basically destroyed 100s of exalts worth per piece of T1 legacy mirrored, corrupted, or unique item... just like that, RIP those expensive items in a blink by this BS move.

Just keep giving the finger to the perm players who worked hard to buy expensive items, fuck em over and over. And most of them aren't even that rich. Mirror lords not affected, since they can re-roll their originals.

Not a surprise anymore, but sad how they just seemingly don't give a rats ass.


If only they could figure out a way to make in-game item art into reusable mtxes, they could just wipe Standard off the face of Wraeclast and you'd have nothing to complain about. After all, standard has no global value beyond alt art rewards really. All it does is skew the balancing process because GGG have to constantly think of ways to keep people with nigh limitless, perpetual power interested in the very same game they're designing to be played from the ground up every 4 or so months via gimmick leagues and challenges.

No more standard. Ever. When a league expires, your chars just deactivate all their mtxes and go to the Void League for posterity. That'd be awesome.



No global value? They don't make profit from perm league players?

Oh. I'm Australian. Sorry, might have failed to mention it. We occasionally use a little understatement to emphasise things. 'That was complete and total bullshit' is usually not quite as fucked up as 'well, that was a bit much, mate'.

From what I understand, there is no buff or nerf to crit multi. It is exactly the same as before but the calculations are different. With the word change, it naturally nerfed Crit multi by 33%. However in the next line they made up for it by increasing all crit multi by 50%

So for example people:
Old crit multi(shadow assassination passive): 150 + (30 * 1.5) = 195% Crit multi

New Crit Multi(shadow assassination passive): 150 + 45 = 195% Crit multi

When the new tree comes out Shadow assassination will now be 45% instead of 30%, however as you see above the calculation is different but the end result is the same. When a new player looks at crit multi now, all they have to do is just add the number to their base value.
