I know this is a topic many others have opened, but opening another one to show Blizzard how desperately this needs to change. Dropped a two greater affix weapon with the third already being a good affix. Went to temper it first because the only way to know something is usable is to see if you get proper temper rolls first (Already a bad sign) And it rolled into every other temper than the one I was aiming for. Meanwhile the weapon tempers don’t matter because those are ALL bad for pulverize druid (Size is the best you can get and it’s completely unnecessary). Suddenly that two greater affix weapon, that I haven’t seen that many of to begin with, which had GOOD greater affixes is no longer usable due to this system, big feelsbad. I don’t mind the grind but when one simple step bricks the usefulness of a drop you’re excited about, not a good feeling.

i think tempering is something they have done pretty intentionally so that players will spend more time grinding for gears with good affix but also have to filter them out again by having limited attempts of tempering, which means you have to spend more time until you actually have a perfect gear with good affix that also has correct tempering. They probably will change it mid season as by then playerbase will go down and they want to get players back to the game by improving the tempering system.
