Why won't POE add something new to the equipables, like trinkets?
|
Even for POE 2, I don't think they announced any new equipable slots, aside if you count the new way linking works in POE 2.
I really think the game could need a new slot or two? Trinket slots would be nice and easily go with the style/lore. I'm sure others already brought it up in the past, i'm just wondering why in all these years, i've not really once seen any adjustments to any equipment slots/additions :( Would be so fun to have new stuff to tinker with and craft/theorize about :) Last bumped on Jul 16, 2020, 8:16:02 AM

because then everything would have to be rebalanced.
it's fairly easy to get resist capped with proper rolls. having 2 extra slots that can roll resist would make it TRIVIAL. the same is true for other stats like accuracy and crit chance. more evasion, ES, crit multi, would just powercreep characters for no reason. Cluster jewels are the closest thing to a new equipable, expanding your passive tree beyond the base. actual new gear slots have no benefit other than making people stronger for free. |

" I get your point, but I feel like they can manage that balance, when they could manage the balance of adding sizable cluster jewel tree's with 200+ nodes. I would love to see a new item type, instead of just more generic currency-style rewards. Something you actually equip on your character, as you do your armor, rings, necklace etc. I guess that's just me :) |

It's very possible something is in the works for armor/gear with the changes to socketing in PoE2.
The gems will contain the sockets and links, not the gear, which opens the door for all kinds of things. This will give them them flexibility with abyssal sockets, gems / jewels, or something new like runewords or similar design function. They could also use them to differentiate unique items, which right now, are vastly outclassed by their rare counterparts.

I would LOVE some sort of trinkets or charms to go in the flask slots, giving you a lesser bonus than flasks, but permanent.
Bring me some coffee and I'll bring you a smile.

Solid concept, I like it and mostly because I hate how flasks are used in this game.
Sign me up for a Cloak slot (there's already the mtx slot for it) which could add benefits to armour or evasion or, well pretty much anything. |

Some fucking pants would be nice lol.
