What does grief have to do with enigma though? Enigma has great mods on it, but many more useful ones are found on say fortitude, which only costs a Lo. Enigma’s selling point is really the teleport.
Uniques are much more obtainable than runewords, so that’s entirely fair.
Ah yeah
Arkaine valour is 1:3,700,000 and gated in alvl83areas
While Ber is 1:350,000 and it can drop as early as den of evil
No need to misrepresent the truth here.
Arkaine’s Valor can be dropped outside of level 85 areas and has probabilities as good as 1:49,903 from Pindleskin (of all uniques/super unique mobs) with 0 MF and on players 1, and 1:~99,000 for non-super uniques with 0 MF and on players 1. Add a modest 500 MF and the odds go 2.5 times in your favour.
By contrast, Ber and Jah is around 1:95,000 a piece (and you need to find both runes) from Pindle and doesn’t improve with MF.
What you’re also not accounting for is that runes, unlike uniques, have a burn rate. Every time you use a rune, that rune is no longer in circulation in the economy or otherwise for any other use, making runes more scarce than just looking at raw drop rates of items.
This isn’t the start. If you think it is, you are far behind.
What you don’t account is the upgrade option too
Also, Never in 20 years of Diablo 2 have I found an Arkaine
But just the first month of D2R alone I have found 2 Ber, 3 Jah 5 Sur, 3 Lo, 7 vex, 3ohm
Stop trying to defend your broken op it that a crapload of players agree is broken and should be nerfed
Arkaine is much rarer than the path to enigma but it pales in comparison
Switch Nigma and Arkaine affixes and you’ll have people whine that getting teleport Oskill is now harder
Why not just put waypoints in the boss rooms, makes Enigma less needed and removes the absolutt need to be sorc at ladder start.
And teleport dont need to be nerft.
I’m just telling you what the facts are and to not misrepresent the truth in your comments. Not a big ask TBH.
I’ve found 3 Arkaine’s Valors in single player, it really depends on where you focus your MF efforts on as there’s broadly speaking 2 playing styles: mass mobs or targeted boss killing. I’ve done a good mix of both.
You might see more Bers and Jahs in trading, but I can’t imagine how many Arkaine’s Valors have been left on the ground or sitting around not traded in people’s stashes.
I agree that some, rarer uniques need a buff, but Arkaine’s Valor is not really one of them. Wouldn’t hurt, but the game doesn’t really need it.
Its only sorceress heavy at the start due to sorceress doing so well with low gear. The sorc is not the best at any role in this game other than doing good with low-no gear.
If you listened to people like OP would torpedo this game so heavily. already lots of people didn’t come back for ladder. Make the game worse for some deluded view as to ‘needed’ balance? would finish it off.
Yay another alt account spamming the forums cause he’s too broke for Enigma. You already dropped $40 on another copy of D2R, just go buy an Enigma while you’re at it.
No they should make teleport even easier to get with cheaper runewords.More available other classes are closer to soso.
So BIG NO.MAKE easier teleport!
Honestly this is a real solution. I like it.
Lol the reason a lot of people didn’t come back is no the fact they did balance changes
The reason people didn’t come back is
took 8 months to release ladder1
2.4 was a minor patch, people want D2 to improve, they don’t want to play the same version they’ve played for 20years
People saw with pod and PD2 how you can improve D2 while keeping it D2
Half a dozen of basement devs get more done than a whole team of devs of a multiBillion company
And it’s not a problem. It’s your choice if you want to play the S tier build or something else. I enjoy my warcry barb and bone necro, and i don’t find that it’s a problem that they are not the best at DPS. They have other advantages instead.
Those S tier builds are not perfect too - sorc is fragile, javazon has trouble with immunities (unless you hybridise with another element, but then her damage is not so OP), FoH damage stops scaling up after level 49 and may have lots of problems on a playthrough (the worst character for maggot lair). Hammer is awkward to use and requires very aggressive positioning. If anything, I think emphasising these downsides with some minor nerfs would be best for the game.
Nope. Then you’d have even more people playing/botting as sorcs. What does that accomplish?
I do agree characters need to be more balanced though.
Another brand new troll account (10000000% an alt from one of you cowards haha) that was created with the sole purpose of being cringe in the D2R forums, making terrible suggestions that WILL NEVER BE IMPLEMENTED. 
lol This forum is endlessly predictable. The game will never be casualized for you randoms. Go play the next latest released game your short attention spans can focus on.
go play D3, problem solved
this is D2R not D2 remake…
Oh look another, “I’m tired of dying in PvP to Enigma” post.
A crapload of players believe Enigma should be nerfed? Is this similar to the “crapload” of players who believe hammerdins should be nerfed? Or teleport?
I can only imagine the exhaustion of moderating the original D2 forums. I’m going to start flagging these threads for trolling/spam along with a “crapload” of other players. Behold another post from players not farming or trading for gear, because it’s easier to get on the forums and call for a nerf.
can’t really say for other players but I keep the 2 screens so I can play and talk on here. Only have this 1 account too BTW
The fact that they included this item contradicts your statement. It was designed with the that everyone could have teleport.
