Should Primals and Set items to be introduced in D4 ? How can we bring these back to allow more engaging loot hunting experience

I have a solid feeling “Set” is definitely making a come back, it is matter of time. I think blizzard is planning it for expansion. How about Primal gear or equivalent in power ?

Uber Uniques are nice but they are so rare and for majority of the people it is still far far out of reach. We probably need something more in line or between Uniques and Uber which has a better drop rate which can keep the loot hunting more exciting.

They’ve already said set items will eventually be a thing, they’re just trying to do them in a way they don’t take over

Correct - My guess is it will come in expansion or soon after the expansion.

They will eventually be coming. Just not in a way like in D3 where sets are all that matters. Hated that system lol.

Sets needs to be interesting and impactful. It depends on the direction the dev wants to approach this.

Do we want set to be build defining or not ?

If the answer is yes, then once the whole set is collected, the set bonus will need to be impactful enough to be build defining.

Set is coming yes… We already have a limited Primals in the way of Uber Unique D4

Having them be impactful is fine, but they shouldn’t be the end all be all. Now they could make them niche with certain builds in mind. Or change how a build functions. Like say changing werenado nado’s into one big nado and maybe change it’s element to fire or something.

I don’t want like big dmg increases on sets though to the point it invalidates anything else.

I think small sets is the key honestly, no more than 2-3 pieces

I can agree with that… Let us hope that is the direction with the set items is to come.

Sets by my guess will be Season 8. This gives 1 year to play with S4 redesign.
