So all Eternal Items dropped to 540 power level?

It was announced that with 2.0 all items with power above 540 will be reduced to 540.
So anything that we drop now will be useless and needed to be regrinded to 750 (or is it 800) ?!

After Loot reborn, we had unique reborn, and now again? That would be 3 seasons in a row where Eternal players need to regrind everything they found. That sounds quite unfair.

I quote:

Because Character Levels are being re-adjusted in the new Realm-wide Paragon system, items with Item Power over 540 are being adjusted to 540. Affixes on these adjusted items will be rerolled at the highest values in their respective ranges.

So all the Mythics items we have will be downgraded to 540… what the hell guys?!

I mean can’t say we are all that surprised since Blizz was teasing a revamped leveling progression system.

I saw 750 and 800 item levels in the presentation so everything is not going to 540.

All current 925 items will be changed to 540 and then the the GA will be readjusted to item level 540

Read the patch notes, they said:

Because Character Levels are being re-adjusted in the new Realm-wide Paragon system, items with Item Power over 540 are being adjusted to 540. Affixes on these adjusted items will be rerolled at the highest values in their respective ranges.

So all Eternal players will have their gear set to a low level, essentially forcing a 3rd reset for Eternal players. Really a slap in the face of long term player imho.

Mythic Unqiues auto drop at Max lvl , but its unliekly these are adjusted to 800 and will probably go to 540 which means it becomes just a spark

Max level isn’t 540. Max ilvl in VoH is 800.

Mythics are gonna be 800, since Mythics are always max level.

It’s the 2/3 GA Uniques that I care about. Those are far more rare than non-GA Mythics, and those Uniques are going to be 540 now.

You’re really counting on Blizzard to do this migration as you’d expect? I wish… I have my doubts. I can easily imagine all our current mythics becoming 540.

I’ll believe it when I see a max Lvl unique that’s been lvl adjusted to 800 instead of legacy 540

no biggie. if can farm 50 mythics in 3weeks on seasonal im sure the eternal players can survive refarming stuff

The whole point of eternal is you don’t want to refarm everything every 3 months
Blizzard have shown there true colours. It’s play seasons or dnt play at all

Maybe you can. But maybe it’s worth considering other players who can’t spend that much time and were happy having found something very rare.
I’m in the same bucket as you, I play way too much, but I can empathize with most of the “normal” players for whom this will really be unfair.

nothing is rare in d4. if things were still s0 droprates then maybe i could “feel” for eternal players. but it takes no time to farm stuff. eternal had a purpose when it first launched. it is pointless now with current droprates. its too easy to get all the extra rare gear

I’m sorry but I disagree. Most casual players will never see a Mythic item. You overestimate the main player base. Just the fact that you are in this forum, posting, shows that you are way more involved in this game than 90% of its current players. You need to take a step back and not just focus on your experience.

Depends on what you define rare. I could understand the 4GA perfect unique item considered super rare versus its non GA version. Not many players have 4GA perfect unique items. Even streamers might have just have a few

R.I.P my perfect Doombringer with 4 Ga :frowning:

It would be hard to continue playing D4, but maybe not impossible… if it was the one and only game existing.

i like and play my eternal characters and they have godly gear. i know the “hehe actuallyyyyy nobody cares about eternal” newbs who farm up their trash items finish the battle pass and are okay with their characters being destroyed in some way at the end of every single season don’t care but….this is another total disgrace by the devs

Moreover, Mythics can be obtained by trading Sparks.

2/3 GA Uniques can’t.

People just have this bassackwards. Mythics aren’t a concern. The 2/3 GA Uniques are. Those are toast now.
