Omen of Whittling functionally seeing mod tiers incorrectly.
Not sure where else to put this, and it feels like it's a bug, although not so much a programming bug as much as a vision of how the game should work bug.
Something I noticed was that while you have changed the tiers of modifiers visually (T1 lowest, T10 or whatever highest) functionally that is not the case. The game is still looking at it like they are PoE1 ranks of modifiers. Case in point: I used an Omen of Whittling with a Chaos Orb on a sceptre with a T1 attribute reduction and a T3 spirit, expecting to remove the T1 attribute reduction. The chaos orb removed the spirit. I am guessing this is because while the att reduction was the 'lower' tier numberwise, it was functionally a higher tier than the spirit. There were 8 tiers of spirit possible on the item, and 5 tiers of attribute reduction. So the attribute reduction was considered T5, but the spirit was T6 and considered 'lower' by the omen of whittling. I get this as a PoE1 player, and understand why it happened, but this straight up makes the decision to reverse tier ranks difficult to process. It isn't intuitive in any way. When I think of things getting harder, numbers get higher, so yeah, T15 is harder than T1. When I think of things being better, gold medals go to first place, not 15th. And I wouldn't be surprised if a majority of people would view it similarly. With different mods having different numbers of tiers, players shouldn't be required to know how varying ranks of mods compare. They should be able to look at two mods and determinatively know without other knowledge (such as how many ranks are possible for each mod and how they line up comparatively) which mod is going to get removed. I understand why you all considered changing how tiers are shown to people, but it's a visual change only, not functional, and you should consider either changing it back to how it is displayed in PoE1, or changing how other items functionally interact with mod tier levels, such as the omen of whittling. Appreciate anyone who reads all of this. tl;dr Please do something about how mod tiers display and work. Omen of Whittlings aren't cheap. Последняя редакция: Teppecus#3435.

This works with modifier levels, not tiers.
T1 attribute reduction - 24 lvl T3 spirit - 23 lvl |
