Reduced attribute requirements feedback

I'll keep it short and I think most would agree.

With current skill gem stat requirements, you're effectively guaranteed to meet the requirements of any weapon—and since weapons have the highest stat demands, armor follows naturally. By the time you're in early endgame, this affix becomes irrelevant.

Yes, there are very niche cases where someone might want this, but those are rare and typically short-lived. In most cases, soul cores or runes already cover those needs more efficiently.

Can we please remove this affix from the pool past item level 79 (T15+)? In its current form, it just bricks items for the vast majority of players. And it does so in the worst possible way—being effectively a dead affix, unlike other low-value ones like regen or leech, which at least do something for your build.

I'm not sure why you think the niche cases where this affix becomes critical are "short-lived." I've played builds that could not have functioned without it because they relied on a critical item that was otherwise "off spec" for everything else the build needed.

Every build is going to have a long list of affixes that are effectively meaningless for them; the fact that some of them are meaningful to fewer builds and others are more in-demand is part of the glorious chaotic beauty of equipment in this game. I mean surely if they were down to remove affixes that were not supporting endgame play they would have done away with Light Radius a decade ago.

So, again, there are builds for which regen and leech are absolutely not low-value affixes. There are builds for which these are primary dependencies.

Like, we kind of have to stick to a narrative here guy. We can't be beating up GGG in one breath for not providing enough build diversity and then turn around in another and tell them to remove affixes because they only support niche builds.

It’s a spoiler affix. It can be used in some cases/builds, but generally is included in the pool solely to make finding a good item less likely. GGG knows that almost no one wants this affix, that’s why it has a higher chance to appear than good affixes.

What a roller coaster of a post. You started off with some solid information that is absolutely accurate and then immediately pivoted to just absolutely and utterly unhinged bullshit that you couldn't possibly begin to defend or support with a single shred of data or evidence.

Like, would you care to share the work you've done collecting the amount of data that would be necessary to make this claim in any capacity other than your own personal feelings? Why say this? I legitimately can't understand people sometimes. Like you KNOW you don't have any actual evidence to support the idea that this affix has a higher chance to appear than others but somehow you're just gonna go ahead and believe it AND tell others about it like you're sharing wisdom.

It rolls on 99% of items I pickup now so GGG must think it's great.
They also must love Temporal Chains and Vaal factory.

No it doesn't.

Post a verifiably uncut video of you picking up 100 rares and if more than 30 of them have this affix on it I will Venmo you $500.

Like dude who are you actually kidding? You know this isn't true and everyone reading this knows it isn't true. What are you hoping to accomplish by saying something that both you and everyone else knows is absolutely and 100% complete nonsense?

What purpose does this serve? Do you think this is going to make the game better? Just making up absurd obvious lies?

Oh, wait. No. Now tell me it was an "exaggeration" which is another word for "whoops I made up a lie and someone called me out."

Holy shit dude take a walk around the block.

Are you seriously claiming item modifiers don’t have weights? Do like 2 seconds of google searching, it’s well known in both PoE1 and PoE2 by anyone who knows how to craft. You should read a guide so you can learn how to craft:

Ah shit, you were that guy making stuff up and posting screenshots of your fake loot on the other thread. Hate getting called out so much you just have to stalk me around the site now lol?

I'll do it tonight, and I stream for you. Deal?

It's really boring that affix at endgame. Yes. It works on some out of meta builds, but it really bricks 99% of my loot

honestly same, thats the easiest 500$ ever lmfao. Do you even play the game? I like how you just attack the person, instead of refuting their argument or, I don't know, actually contributing to the thread rather than getting mad and attacking others? (also nice whataboutisms.... not.)

agree with the thread, just remove it from t15+ items, it bricks pretty much every single item it shows up on, and it shows up WAY too often. like half of the rares I get are instantly disenchanted because they have the affix and wont sell for shit.


with gem and item requirements, unless you're using a build that requires all 3 stats, by endgame you're able to equip them without needing reduced attributes. PLEASE lower the weighting for it or something, its ridiculous how many items im picking up in t15+ maps that are worthless, and since we cant identify items in the field (really annoying, but ok.) you have to pick them up, port back to hideout, identify then disenchant. which takes up time, and its annoying
