Where did you put Lifesprig on the loot table?

http://pathofexile.gamepedia.com/Lifesprig

this is a nice wand but its not OP and the stats shows it just meant for leveling since by end game there are many decent rare that outclass it.

there are many low level but usable uniques like facebreaker, quill rain, deerstalker drop often but this?? why does it seem so rare? theres like only 8 of them on xyz for ambush.. did someone accidently put them in the same category of "rareness" as BoR and forgetten about it completely?

xyz check for ambush
wonderlust: >99 results
hrimnor's hymn:> 99 results
limpsplit:> 99 results
geofri:> 99 results

all the above are game changers in races

then
lifesprig: 10 results

Probably rare so they dont excessively impact racing, similar to tipua.

but the current rarity is fucked up dont you think?

and its not like there are no game changing physical weapons in the early levels...
hrimnors'hymn, limpsplit, wonderlust(20movespeed!!) and even maligaro can drop during races and they drop more way often then lifesprig generally

hell its like even BoR, tabula, alphahowl are common then this. i never see it drop, and hardly see it on trade chat, xyz in this league and last.
so its not "probably rare" like u say, its fucking rare, for a low level unique
As KoTao noted, it's probably a bit rarer than it need be cause of racing.

That said, I dont know exactly how rare it is, but I know I dropped a couple of them. I imagine another reason why there's not many of them available could be these babies go straight to vendor for those juicy alt and alc shards.

They sadly drop in trade chat. Got 2 for 11c total.

Absolutely agree that drop rate is crazy low. It is like 1000 araku tikis per one lifesprig..


Its seriously time to make a distinction between races and regular game and not adjust droprates to counter OP-ness in races. Implement two distinct droprates, for two distinct environments.

Drop from Hillock. This wand is too awesome for leveling, to be so rare. Using at lvl 40 now. Searing bond witch got to Merc with it :)

That's Searing Bond at work, I'm about to hit Merc with Searing Bond and Sceptre as a weapon, that only has "20% increased Elemental Damage" implicit and completely useless explicit mods.

People said that Searing Bond is good for leveling with +1 to gems mod on your weapon. They were half right- it really is good, only it doesnt even need that mod.

a simple solution would be to change the base item to a quartz wand (lvl18) or spiraled wand (lvl24), then u can finally restore it to a normal low level unique drop rate instead of the current gimp which makes it as rare or rarer than BoR

a change of name and design might be in order then but its not unprecedented
oh common guys,
way too OP item
should be gated behind lvl74
doesn´t even have a downside
