Congrats on destroying Voltaxic Rift

Welp, I expected that. :V

If I'd have to guess further, I think there will be another way to get 100% conversion (along with Voltaxic). It will need far more investment to do so, tho.

Honestly, if there is absolutely nothing in their databases that describes the item itself to the degree that an automated system can easily determine which items need to be checked and then have mods on said item corrected if needed, then GGG did a terrible job of designing their databases. Applying some non-unique identifier to at least unique items in their database would be rather simply and add a negligible amount of data to each item.

I don't think there is, data related to a specific item can most likely store socket data, rolls and mod list. The way it is usually done is something like this:
Item Whatever
mod 0654 with values 45,0,0
mod 0045 with values 20,4,0
...

With mods themselves being defined somewhere else, what you're suggesting is defining mods on item itself, which isn't really possible in a game like this.

I saw someone asking about Myolner and why was it not retroactively nerfed back then because it was also a numerical nerf. Well, it's not about nerfs being numerical or not, it's all about the mod type. I had theory back then when we were speculating about Myolner nerf saying that such a mod isn't actually unique but just a multi-parameter mod which says 'X% chance to cast a socketed spell of type Y on hit'.

So, it would be stored like this
mod 0176 with values 50,12,0

With 50 being the trigger percentage, and '12' being a code for 'lightning' gem tag. If that was the case, it wasn't possible to nerf Myolner retroactively without messing up the mod in all instances where it is used and in future. The Acuity mod is truly unique on the other hand so they can replace it entirely if needed, it can become 'morph into Daresso and throw a bunch of roses at the screen on crit'.

By the way, they said a few times that it isn't possible to modify the specific item data on a live realm to whatever value you want. I assume they could at best make a script that sniffs out every instance of a unique item and then force a reroll on it, which will destroy your perfectly rolled soul taker. And they also said they would have to take the realm down for a few days to do that as there are millions of legacy items at this point. We did suggest they make a script instead that will do it at player logon, but there may be reasons that wouldn't work, dunno.

LUL

It's not the fact that chaos and voltaxic/consuming dark are good.

It's because many people are FUCKING tired of killing themselves by something off-screen that has reflect!!

Get rid of this stupid goddamn reflect. Not nerf chaos to the ground.


Remember the bullshit from Diablo 2? Toke, time, but they finally removed iron maiden from those oblivion knights that caused melee characters to instantly kill themselves. But that was child's play compared to this. YOU DON'T SEE IT COMING HERE.

Reflect is healthy for the game , it is an interesting mechanic that everyone loves and can't live without . So please , stop spreading misinformation .

Dying from something off-screen is healthy? Are you delusional? Is that fun gameplay to have to fucking read everything before you kill it? Are we reading books here?

It's a check to make sure you don't go full retard glass cannon, or at least that you die if you do so. The only problem is people think they should just be able to do this without risk.

Yeah, fuck those players that like to change skills based on circumstances or use situational defenses in response to visible threats. A build is only good if it survives all situations with your eyes closed! If you can't mindlessly mash your face against the keyboard to win, your build is shit and you have no skill!
