Ability to enchant mirrored and corrupted items, for a price
|
Hi. With the implementation of enchantments, some, albeit a small percentage, got possible nerfs to mirrored and corrupted helms, boots, and gloves.
I have an idea, which although will not please everyone, it could have an overall positive impact on the game and the economy. We all know that mirrored and corrupted items cannot be enchanted, and therefore mirroring helms, gloves, and boots now becomes a much bigger hassle then it ever has been. The proposal is simple. The price to enchant a mirrored item could be one exalted, and for a corrupted item it could be one vaal. This creates a very large exalted sink for the top 1% of standard players, which I believe would have an overall positive effect on the economy. It also creates a vaal orb sink, increasing the value and worth of vaal orbs. Exalted orbs drive the economy, and without as many around, the economy should deflate slowly.

Enchantments are kind of a nerf to legacy mirrored items. Not bad, if you ask me, though the real problem are the weapons (probably also rings and amulets). They also nerf vaaling, which is kind of sad.
Do enchants get mirrored when you mirror an item? BTW, why not ask for a mirror for enchanting a mirrored item? That would be logical. In any case, I am OK with the fact that mirrored items cannot be enchanted. Remove Horticrafting station storage limit. Last edited by Char1983#2680 on Mar 10, 2016, 10:30:05 PM

Enchantments are just different implicit so they do get mirrored if someone mirrors and item that has an enchantment.
In terms of allowing corruption, absolutely not. Part of corrupting an item is putting forth risk for reward. You could technically have a better version as a corrupted item that got something good then the original and it removes the risk (or rather the bricking) of the mirrored item base. So this should and likely will never happen. As far as enchanting mirrored items idk, currently they are nice and you can enchant uniques, but I'm torn because mirrored copies were designed to just be that. https://youtu.be/T9kygXtkh10?t=285

If you want a mirrored item with an enchantment, get a mirrored copy of an enchanted item. Allowing them to be enchanted would be like going "okay, you can just use chromatics on them, too." Mirrored items are a bit of a cancer on the SC economy, so anything that makes them even better is generally a bad idea.
As for corrupted items... In the end, I have much the same response: use a Vaal orb on an enchanted item if you want those white sockets so much. Allowing you to simply enchant corrupted items would remove a good deal of the risk. ("Oh, I didn't get that Minion Damage corrupt on my helm or the movement speed on my boots? At least I can still go and enchant to try and get something similar!") My guides: Summon Homing Missile (SRS) | Act II starter RF | Budget Oro's Flicker Strike

" No, that goes against the whole point of having a penalty for mirroring or corrupting an item. you want an enchant on your item. mirror a new one or corrupt a new one. not being able to mod those items is the price you pay for their power. stop trying to buy your way out of it.
