Since we could have masterworked the now legacy unique items on Eternal Realm from season 5, and some we surely did masterwork in season 5, it makes no sense to NOT allow us to masterwork them now on Eternal Realm in Season 6.
Why not allow us that on Eternal Realm? You already downgraded all former item power 925 uniques from season 5 to item power 540. Ok, that was bad enough. But now you totally unnecessarily do not allow Eternal Realm players to masterwork their legacy unique items on top of that.
At least allow us to masterwork our legacy unique items on Eternal Realm. Eternal Realm players have spend a lot of time to collect those items. Some players did not have enough time to masterwork all their collected unique items before start of season 6. They should be able to still masterwork their season 5 unique items! It was possible in season 5 anyway. So there is no reason at all to not allow that now.
Eternal Realm players already have lost all their items with start of season 4 by making them useless with the legacy mark. Then a lot of Eternal players spent a lot of time to recollect their items, also the uniques. But then with start of season 5 you decided to change all unique items and make basically all former unique items useless, because the new versions were much stronger. Yet at least you allowed Eternal players to masterwork their season 4 uniques. To make all former unique items useless again was another slap into the face of Eternal players who started season 5. But they took the slap and thought “Now finally all items, legendary and unique, have been restructured and now we can finally recollect them without that they will get useless in the future”. Little did Eternal Realm players know that Blizzard planned exactly that for Eternal Realm players: To make ALL their items useless again by downgrading them to item power 540 and in contrast to start of season 5 to not even allow to masterwork the unique items anymore.
The downgrade to item power 540 was already a hefty punch that was unnecessary. Because you could have easily allowed it to rescale to item power 800 in season 6. But you chose to downgrade them to 540 for no reason other then to force Eternal players, who want to continue playing, to recollect all items again. But on top of that to not allow us to masterwork our legacy unique items, although you allowed us to masterwork our legacy unique items from season 4 during season 5, that is comletely non-sense. Why would you do that other than to piss off Eternal players?
I mean, for the THIRD SEASON IN A ROW you destroy all the effort and time that Eternal players have put into collecting their items. And you do that
- in contradiction to what Eternal Realm is supposed for AND
- without necessity.
It is so bad and unnecessary. Why do you do that? Why? Explain! You don’t even explain why. You don’t even communicate with us. And with your actions and your behavior not to even communicate with us about that, many Eternal Realm players have enough now. And rightfully so. A lot of them will quit this game. I will do that as well.
Because if you made items useless from S3 to S4, from S4 to S5 and from S5 to S6 now, then it seems to me very likely that you will do that again from S6 to S7.
It is one thing that you published an incomplete game back in summer 2023 and so you needed to make the itemization more interesting with S4. It was your mistake, Blizzard. But Eternal players had the disadvantage of that because all their items were made useless. With start of Season 4 you forgot to adequately change the unique items. You fixed your neglect with start of season 5, again to the disadvantage of Eternal Realm players. At least you allowed them to masterwork their old uniques. But now, with start of season 6, you restructured everything again, because obviously you failed to make it more interesting in the past and have neglected something that you felt to fix now with start of season 6. But now again, Eternal players have the disdvantage from your neglect. And on top of that you do not even allow Eternal players to masterwork their legacy uniques anymore.
Please, Blizzard, at least allow Eternal players to masterwork their legacy uniques. And it would also be nice if you could scale the former max item power 925 items to the new max item power 800. But at least allow us to masterwork legacy uniques from season 5.
I demand from Blizzard to patch with a HOTFIX to ALLOW ETERNAL REALM PLAYERS TO MASTERWORK THEIR LEGACY ITEMS from Season 5.
I demand it NOW.
Otherwise: Me quitting Diablo 4.
There is no rational reason not to do that other than to want to slap Eternal Realm players into the face AGAIN and make their items useless.
I have spent so many hours to get all my items with greater affixes. Not only did you downgrade all my items from 925 to 540, but you also not allow me and all other Eternal Realm players to temper or masterwork out items without that you can name a rational reason for that and without necessity. The only motivation behind that is to slap Eternal Realm players into the face. Shame on you, Blizzard!
Wasn’t Eternal Realm supposed to allow players to slowly improve their chars and gear without being disrupted by seasonal resets? I think that was and should be the purpose of Eternal Realm.
