I’m fine with them not wanting to have gold get as out of control as Diablo 3. I get it, it makes sense. But the prices at the enchanting table don’t seem to care about that. I mean, I just had 100 million gold. I got a ring with basically max crit chance/dmg/and dmg with earth skills. Tried to go for vulnerable. Even looked up that method I’ve heard to help save gold by rolling it on a different character with fewer options to work with. It told me to use my barb and it’d take about 11 tries and cost 8M gold… I spent 40 million gold trying to get vulnerable. And I didn’t even get it. Not wanting to drain my wallet as I’m playing 4 characters this season, I stopped and settled for max life. Mind you, this is for a SINGLE ring on a SINGLE character. 40% of my gold.
Sure, I’ll get flamed in the comments for spending that much, I get it. You may have chosen to stop at attempt number 3 or 4. But I subscribe to the idea that this is NOT what the devs envisioned. Why would they want players literally giving up on rolling stats? I don’t remember EVER giving up in D3. Is that not possible in D4 even with the lowered supply of gold? The gold attainment has been gutted going from D3 to D4, cool. No problem. But the costs at the occultist have to go with it. Am I alone in this thinking? How many of you give up after a few rolls and just roll around with a “decent” piece of gear instead of “perfect” or “great”?

you might enjoy slot machines more than diablo 4
then you can throw all your money away rerolling to your heart’s content
I spent 40 million trying to get DEXTERITY today. d e x t e r i t y… now i cant even pay for the moongate costs. (just joking)
Post patch, it seems they either removed it from the enchanter or drastically lowered the chance of getting it.
I gave up at 12 million on 2 different wands.
Are you talking about D4craft? Cause 1.1.1 removed priority stat rolling on enchanting so those numbers could be off now.
yeah thats what it was. so the outcome would have been the same if i stayed on my druid?
No I think it still would have applied. Your odds probably should have been better actually now that you get two chances to land vuln instead of one. RNG perhaps?
they could make enchanting less frustrating if, instead of reducing the cost, give us 3 new options instead of 2.

Yep. Occultist is full on confetti mode now.
No more Affix priority.
I can understand these prices if we were able to reroll multiple Affixes per item.
At 1x/item:
Either the price scaling needs to be reduced
or
Rolls need to be progressive, ie. Upgrades only.
Got 10% Vuln and want 14%?
Range is 7-14%.
Any time you get Vuln it’s 10.X% - 14% and not 7-10%.
Progressive upgrading.
Only fair with the rake players over the coals extortion level pricing.
p.s. Blizz - this is a GAME, remember that. Enjoyment and entertainment. Some effort sure but enjoyment and entertainment first and foremost.
Not work 9-5 to earn enough gold and mats for a few rerolls of a SINGLE Affix on 1 of 9 to 11 item slots.
I think it would be fun if I could, at the blacksmith, use one of my upgrade slots and a bunch of gems to hard upgrade a specific stat on my gear. That’d be interesting.
The only gold sink in this game is enchanting. They have ZERO crafting. This is literally the end game.

Feel you same **** happen to me…the only 2 stats choice instead of 3, whit always the 2 stats priorities going out is clearly retardead… that system was soppose to be fix/better/cheaper whit the last update? Lies! Spend over 60m for a lvl 50 ring before the update, it reach the point of 4m per try so i stop… when i went out of money =/. Got only 6.5 vul roll on /10 after 60m. I wanted to try to roll that ring again after the update since that ring is realy good and i wanted to also use it on alt later… so thats why i invest alot in it… realy work well btw… its either 90-100% chance to roll priorities stats or 1% to roll what you need…good system… And a special thanks to Bnet… now after the update its only 11.6m+ each try… it was 4m each try before update… that’s only 3x money… GG
Give and take
Take and give
Cheaper respec, we will get that gold back from somewhere else…rerolls
Free stash tab, 400k plz
They consider this content
Occultist as a new class would be nice. You can enchant all your gear for free as often as you want.
No you are not. I give up rolling after 3-4 tries for sure.
The prices are ridiculous high.
Enchanting absolutely sucks after the patch.
While there were some bad priority affixes, there were also highly desirable ones like total armor, CDR, crit chance and resource cost reduction and we could get those somewhat reliably.
Now we can spend tens of millions without getting even one useful roll.
I only reroll yellows to keep cost lower, but yes the price goes up too quickly. I usually set a limit of price per enchant… Then find I do 3-4 more after I hit the limit I set… Never get what I want… I’m sure with just one more roll I’d get what I want but I always give up 1 roll too soon lol.
Before the latest patch at the occultist:
" I roll dexterity on my first date "
After the latest patch at the occultist:
" I lose all my money and virginity on my first date without ever seing dexterity "
