Blood Moon Breeches change s7

Anyone know if they will be changing the current iteration or only new drops in S7?
Its a big blow to overpower builds.

When an items power and affixes change, it will be a new drop. Previous version will be legacy. They can only do number changes retroactively. Also it’s still very beneficial for OP builds still.

It’s not a big blow to overpower builds at all. Not one bit. They took the 150% OP you used to get on the pants and put 120% on to the Rathma’s Vigor Passive. And now you still get to use the pants and get a 50% crit multiplier. 2.2x x 1.5x = 3.3x which is higher than the 2.5x you used to get from the pants. This is an overall buff to overpower builds. Not a nerf.

Actually, changes to legendary aspects as well as unique effects apply to items retroactively. Only changes to affixes may require a new drop.
