unique items *no longer updated*

I was excited when I saw that amulet, but then as I looked at my own with +31 to all attributes and similar increases to mana/mana regen I just kinda sighed. The reduced requirements would be handy for my build (summoner doesn't want dexterity for haste aura) but I'd rather stick to a +all attributes amulet for a slew of other increases that come with increase attributes.

Here is the problem... they make the game so incredible unforgiving in terms of the amount of damage that you are going to NEED to be able to tank. And then... they release uniques like this.

On the one hand, they say, "GET TANKY OR ELSE"

on the other

"Here some uniques that are super quirky and don't aide in durability whatsoever"

If these truly are to be considered "racing uniques" then why are they flooding non-race RNG drops with this crap?! Right now for my LowLife build I pretty much NEED a Shavronne's Wrappings because of the way that they pack every inch of every other map with chaos snakes. But now I have to content with all these other "racing" uniques all in the RNG. THANKS!!!

I was under the impression that the game went:
Pick an item to drop in this drop slot -> Pick the rarity of that item
This would mean that the same number of Occultist's Vestments would drop regardless of how many new uniques are added, so as long as there isn't another unique Occultist's Vestment, you should always have the same chance of finding Shavronne's.
i too fas fo youuuuuuu

those new uniques are garbage


Ignorance much?

For LA the bow is fantastic
For any mana/aura/curse whore the ammy is a godsend.


I'm not disagreeing with you, rather asking for education.
But.. 50% of Physical Damage converted to Lightning Damage, is lightning arrow gem.


Am I missing something?
Casually casual.

Cmon guys, you know that claw is not meant for low lvls, the low lvl base is just so that the item itself is not too powerful, so that it stays as a support weapon. Ammy is kinda fun and the new bow is totally awesome, must love to get one of those in a race, but yeah, not a racer here, so not too interested those 2 uniques.

it has godly ligthning dmg on it u cant get that from normal item till ilvl 51 and its a longbow u can use it from lv10 to end game and it gonna be common as fck perfect for leveling item.

Sounds like a strictly racing/leveling/pvp item. How can you possibly use this up to endgame?


Is a racing / leveling / pvp unique not enough?


A lot of people want to see their builds completely fulfilled. I guess that would mean getting to around level 85. And when your build is a bit quirky you'll be needing some uniques that are specialize for your quirky build. But these uniques here are primarily useful at the stage of the game where everyone's quiriky build is in its infancy.

It's also coincidentlly the point of the game where you can basically smash buttons and take passives without any thought and still win. AKA the point of the game where these unques, aren't even NEEDED!

"It's trash" is code for "It doesn't work on my build".

Not all uniques are for everyone, or even for the strongest builds.
They're also designed to work with future skills that we don't even know about.

This is true. My build uses this:

And it works.
