Keep the gold reroll costs if you want devs but kindly bring back the guaranteed drop rate. As a min maxer player, farming Abe Mari and Priestess Qin for a potential 840 rare item was fun. Not game breaking, just fun. Currently the drop rates feels ridiculously low.
They’re not uniques, just an alternative for players that want to experiment higher item power items at the cost of sacrificing an affix.
There was never a guaranteed drop rate? It was still like a 0.5% drop from the helltide chest.
I dont mean the uber uniques. The super uniques were rare items that dropped from unique elites in the world map that can potentially roll above 820 item power but only had 3 affixes. Was not a guaranteed to roll above 820 item power but it was at least a guaranteed drop. You would still have to farm them to hopefully get a drop that rolled above 820.
Before this apparently ninja nerf, you might get a drop above 800 item power 1 to 3 times for every 10 kills, best I ever got was a 835 wand from abe mari once. But that was with a guaranteed drop per kill.
Now its like 1 drop every 10 kills and the you still need to be lucky to get it to roll above 800 item power, much less above 820 item power.
Was a good mechanic for players that were looking for an alternative item when they did not have their “build defining unique yet” and for min maxers like myself it was a good alternative to find potentially high affix rolls like lucky hit on the Qin Focus, or better dmg flat out from the abe mari wand if they rolled above 820.
Some guides referred to them as super uniques some called them hidden rares.
