Hey hear is a idea give 3 choices for temper or make the number of times u can do it more that 5 and the 2 first ones. It’s a lame system who ever made it up I’d rather loose my mind on the affix reroll that this dumb system u have.
I think Godzilla had a stroke trying to read that… but maybe I understood the gist of what you’re saying.
Tempering the same useless affix for 80% of attempts is frustrating as hell! Especially when you find something really good and then have to wonder if you have to throw it away because the affixes turned out garbage every single time.
Instead of giving more retries (which keeps the issue intact), what they should be doing is either making it impossible for the next temper to select the same affix or deprioritizing affixes that already existed on the item before. This makes more sense as it will most likely lead people to the affix that they actually want without this unneeded frustration.
Lost count of how many items I’ve gotten rid of because the same affix out of 4 available options kept appearing. Even statistically it makes no sense, but here we are. The system could be great if some tweaking was done on it now to make it easier to get desired result.
