Blizzard, please give players the OPTION to transform their Season 4 uniques into their reworked versions

Please give players the OPTION to turn their Season 4 uniques into their reworked versions when Season 5 starts and all Season 4 items will get transfered to Eternal or are already in Eternal.

When player plans to maybe turn the old version of the unique item into the new one, the player should be informed how the result would look like to have a qualified basis on which the player can make the final decision to either convert it into the new version of that unique OR to let it be a “legacy item” from Season 4.

The old and the transformed unique item should have the same number of Greater Affixes in this process. So if you had a 4GA item with maxroll in unique aspect for example, and if you chose to transform it into its reworked version, then the result should be the reworked version with 4GA and a maxroll.

And if the old version had less than 4GA, then the result should be as close as possible to the old version regarding the choice of affixes that shall become Greater Affixes in the resulting reworked version. Of course there will be cases in which the old affix with GA will have nothing in common with the new affixes. In that case any of those new affixes, that have nothing in comming with the old affixes, could become GA.

Of course all this unique item transformation choices by players will only take place on Eternal Realm, not on Seasonal Realm.

Developers, do NOT make the fatal mistake to make all uniques useless on Eternal Realm, because the players have spent so much time to get them. Please!

It would have helped if the devs had remembered before releasing Season 4 that there are also unique items in the game that need balance changes in order to be on par with the updated legendaries. Then we wouldnt have this problem in the first place.

It seems that the balancing in Diablo 4 fails at a very early stage. How this was not addressed as part of the itemization overhaul makes you wonder what is going on at Blizzard HQ. Really.

Good Idea. I would hope the changes would be retroactive but if not this is a great alternative. +1

Dev, please do not waste your time doing any of this.

Eternal is not relevant.

Just play the game and get new ones.

If they do this, I want my ubers from S2 reworked as well! Otherwise, hell no. Make everyone re-farm everything.

You’ll get an answer in the campfire chat on the first. They aren’t going to answer you here and I can almost guarantee they will need to be refarmed because they won’t be retroactive.

Blizzard,
