Third Charm Slot

Charm Slots
Probably been posted to death, but this needs to change.

TLDR:
Charm slots should NOT be Suffixes.

I understand the reasoning behind making secondary slots rarer. POE 1 flasks and/or Mageblood made them completely balance breaking.

However, we are currently working with Charms, often a once-and-done get out of jail free card that WILL NOT protect you against a second mistake in a short time span.

There is no need to force characters to give up resistances and life regen (my experience) for charm slots. These slots, at most, should be Prefixes.

With the way charms work, there's no reason a belt can't come standard with 1-2 slots built in.

THEN, if a character wants the 3rd, that could be a Prefix, or allocate Hunter's Talisman.

In any case, the balance with this change is having to still give up something else for the privilege.

If you feel you need to balance around this change, there are definitely options, such as lowering durations by ~1 second, or by increasing charm charge demands.
