[Suggestion] Orb of Antiquity: A Proposed Currency for Upgrading Uniques

I would like to propose a new rare currency "Orb of Antiquity" that upgrades a low-level unique to a higher-tier base. This is similar to the Horadric Cube recipe for upgrading uniques in Diablo 2. The Orb of Antiquity is designed to bridge the gap between early-game unique finds and endgame viability.

Orb of Antiquity is "All-or-Nothing," with 50% chance for success to upgrade unique or is destroyed. The destruction mechanic is necessary to prevent every low-level unique from flooding market.

Orb of Antiquity
* Unpredictably either upgrades Unique item to higher-tier base or destroys it. Level and attribute requirements (Str/Dex/Int) will match new higher-tier base.

This could allow for "low level" uniques be used to make end game builds

Giga based idea tbh.

Exactly. Horadric Cube recipe for upgrading uniques in D2 worked great, GGG needs to add here as well.

Exactly. Jonathan, please consider for 0.5.

Agree. Great idea.

The effect should probably be something like a chance between destroying the Unique (like an Orb of Chance) and upgrading it to something higher tier.

We also need an orb that elevates tier levels of modifiers on items.

Agreed and updated OP:

The Orb of Antiquity is "All-or-Nothing," with 50% chance for success or is completely destroyed. The destruction mechanic is necessary to prevent every low-level unique from flooding the market.
