I would like to propose a slight change to the way empowered items work. currently empowered items no matter how many they have do not affect unique legendary power/aspect/other stats on gear. Wich feels aweful when you find a quad empowered super weapon with the most aweful roll on unique power/aspect. It seems logical to change it to the amount of empowerment 1 through 4 increases the baseline values of all other rolls by 25%. that was if you happen to find a 4 empowered item it will essentially be “perfect” in respect to the stats and things that it rolls. This feels fair to me since it is currently more difficult to find a max empowered item than it is to find a mythic and mythics always roll perfect. It would not bother the grind alot because its not like quad empowered items are dropping like flies anyways. It would give players another avenue to get perfect aspects and they would have to choose if they want to blow the item up to get the aspect or keep it for the utility of the item. I will put a example of the change below to make sure I am explaining properly.
(standard legendary): 0-100% rng on all stats or aspects
(single empowered legendary): baseline 25% 25-100% rng roll on all stats or aspects
(double empowered legendary): baseline 50% 50-100% rng roll on all stats or aspects
(triple empowered legendary): baseline 75% 75-100% rng roll on all stats or aspects
(quad or higher empowered): baseline 100% no rng on stat or aspect range
This slight change would make players excited to get empowered items knowing that when they find a multi empowered item that it already has quality baked into it depending on what they are looking for in the item.
look forward to hearing feedback on this from players.
thank you
