I don't really think this is good in a RF-build. At least not mine.

I am still looking forward to getting this unqiue for testing reasons and i would absolutly enjoy having this well designed aura in party-play.
Hype!

Getting 3% max regen on an amulet saves you from having to travel to the dualist area for regeneration entirely. That's a hell of a lot of nodes saved that can be invested in life/other things.

We don't know the specifics right now, but the trade off might be worth it. There are a lot of life nodes in that area to consider. *shrug*. And amulets can only hit 79 life, not 100 :p

RIP atziris foible, you were good to me but qarl has left me with no choice.

I hope it doesn't replace Atziri's Foible! (Well maybe for specific cases, but not in general.)

I really like Atziri's Foible, I'll make a note on it for the unique rebalance pass.

what about thinking of it from the other direction tho, if you could drop 3% life regen from your tree, what different areas could you go to instead and how much extra life, core stats etc could you potentially spec?

not saying that will definately be a benefit over a rare ammy either, buts its worth considering.

I think people are more annoyed that you can't use scours on uniques. So if this amulet gets chanced instead of Voll's Devotion they need to start chancing another and another etc. Since Volls is an in demand item, many will chance this amulet as a by product. It is destined to be a 1 chaos item because of huge supply.

Reblance idea 1: Small nerf to total mana regen (now 55 vs 90[Foible]). Small Nerf to Life Regen.

15% Increased Mana Regeneration Rate
1% Life Regen Per second
You and nearby allies gain 1.5% of life regen per second
You and nearby Allies gain 40% mana regen per second

Other possible negative trade offs:
a) -1 max fire resist (would hurt RF, could pair with 15% all resists for leveling help)
b) -3 mx all resists when taking damage over time (hurts RF pretty bad)
b) Cannot Use Skill Righteous Fire (says: "There, problem solved?")
c) 15% Increased Attribute Requirements (says: "Hey, I'm different from Foible")

Of course, if this is intended to synergize well with righteous fire, then 5-7% reduced damage taken from damage over time would be icing on the cake. (Such as if you wanted to drop the non-aura mana to keep this further from Foible.)

i feel these are terrible ideas. on the whole your suggestions pigeon holes the unique into an RF item only when in fact it has other uses. zealots, summoners (multiple summoner builds), utility for life/mana regen supplement for characters heavily relying on the right side of the tree. why would you ONLY see RF as the only use?

I made different suggestions, some that would help RF, some that would hurt RF, depending if they want this to be an RF item, or if they want it to be encouraged against RF. I further made suggestions on things that might push this away from Voll's Devotion. There are about 5 different possible ideas in there, mixed on different sides of different topics.
