what is the point of filler mods.

Bad combinations for your build are still shit mods, regardless of power.

So every piece of gear that drops should only have mods that are useful to your build? Where's the fun in that? After the first 20 rare drops in level 66 maps, you'll faceroll every enemy you fight.

The point here is that life regeneration, thorns and light radius are pathetically weak and useless in comparison to almost anything else both in use and stat strength range.

There needs to be serious thorns passive nodes and item stat increase, light radius needs to be combined with accuracy or have nodes that boost accuracy based on light radius.

In order to make life regeneration really useful, it needs to be combined with flat base physical reductions because the game does stupidly overpowered single hit damage that ignores most of your armour and one shotting 3k life characters making it useless, life regeneration would do nothing.

Again, do you even race, bro?

Lets say they make the four changes you suggested. What happens then?

-85% of every piece of gear you loot could be an upgrade.
-You're geared for level 70 maps after running two level 66 maps.
-You complain that it takes too long to pick the upgrades out of all this gear in your bags.
-You complain that the game is too easy.
-You complain that maps don't drop often enough.
-You complain that nobody trades because they can find end-game viable gear in barrels.
-You complain that you've got six full sets of gear for six different builds, but you can't respec.
-You complain that leveling alts to use those six sets of gear takes too long.

You know, in World of Warcraft, every boss drops 2 or 3 of maybe a dozen items. That's it. The only RNG is which item they drop. Maybe that game would be more entertaining to someone like you.

+ Life Regen per second and reflect mods are amazingly strong while leveling, especially in races and events. Which I've already stated, and you've ignored. If you get 2-3 items that total 15 damage reflect by level 10, and pair that with +7 Life Regen per second, you're doing very well. Monkey swarms on Endless Ledge will all kill themselves on you, and it's basically free experience.

what more proof do i need that you aren't worth talking too?
the more you post the less sense you make ,
really how will this change , turn the current 1% of items dropped being good to 85%?

did you think about that number for half a second before you posted or did you just type the first number that came to your mind?

the bullet points you listed are so cartoonishly unrealistic, that is it rather insulting.

You didn't clear up anything. I gave examples of where mods that commonly get mislabeled as "useless" are, in fact, used. You ignored it and cherry picked another part of my post to disagree with.

Name a mod (outside Light Radius) that isn't "USEFUL FOR ANYTHING!" I bet ten Exalted Orbs you're wrong.

Show us your reduced attribute requirement build please.

I will take the 10 exalt on nemesis please.

No, the point was they are still bad stats regardless of the power rolls of the thorns and life regeneration. Look at what I quoted right, he's trying to justify redundant mods by saying you feel better when you don't get the "bad" ones, well if they were useful for another build then they would be the wrongmods, not bad ones in general.

No and neither do most people and the game should not have broken elements based around balancing that boring egocentric shit.

Reduced Attribute requirements CAN be handy for those who lacks stats. For example, your build may lack int for Vaal Regalia, or lack dexterity for Harbinger Bow, etc. This happens sometimes with some builds. So, no, i dont think reduced attribute requirements is a useless stats. It can allow you to use a gear piece you normaly cant use. How can this be useless?

2-4 life gain on hit is actually useless

But not the "I am intentionally obtuse so I can engage in pointless forum arguments" play style!
