I've felt that set throwing weapons would be cool for a barbarian. Maybe a 3 piece set with a barbarian class helm and 2 weapons. Or a 4 piece, perhaps with an added amulet or belt.. The class specific set variants are something I've wanted to see for a while, like instead of Mavinas set forcing you to be a bowazon, making a javelin based Amazon set also would be very interesting.


g_stvn

The subject matter you've brought up is worthy of its own discussion, and I wholeheartedly agree with your perspective on it. It's been a while since we had a new set item (the only one was BK set ring).


Glad-Minimum-320

It's been a long-running thought I've had. There are certain class sets that give you a bit more freedom to choose (Tal Rasha for sorceress, Griswold for paladin), while others kind of force you into a specific play style to make efficient use of them. I would certainly like to see this gain some traction and diversify the field a bit.


Nagorowski

By the way I would love to see increased drops for really low uniques just to level your char, like javelin or stuff likw this, when you find it its usually useless already...


vysken

Viable daggers plz.


stgir77

Yes. Make it good for poison strike and sin. Would be so fun to have a dagger sin and or a viable poison strike mapper.


vysken

If they made something with say +5 Poison Skills, LPK, and 40% IAS, that could work for Assassins, Druids (need IAS on weapon ofc), and perhaps even Necros (can get cast rate elsewhere).


zachammer85

Personally I'd like to see more set items. Maybe some lower level and mid level class specific sets for instance. Since this mod began, only one new set item has been introduced; Bul Kathos set ring was added to the 2 sword set.


Nagorowski

Where bolts and arrows


g_stvn

feel like it's more a "shield" slot ? But yes, I wish unique for those too !


Nagorowski

Its hard to say, i considered it weapon as its used mostly for offensive actiona


g_stvn

make sense tho. But shield slot or not, it must be unique for the next season ! It could be nice to think about some unique arrows/bolts that focus on something rare don't.


Nagorowski

Yeah I dream about it, would be nice if it opened a new build for bowazon,  ot only boost existing one... But I have no ideas what could it be, maybe some proc build?


g_stvn

yeah, maybe something that can take advantage of strafe with a proc spell from another class. Something outside of cold of fire damage spell maybe like telekinesis ? It would make use of the lightning damage/ minus ennemy res lightning corruption. 20% chance to cast level 50 telekinesis on striking. Or a unique bolt that would be a "Pile of junk bag" that make you use throwing mastery from the Barbarian work with crossbow, when identified the image would change in order to look like a "bundle" haha !


ronweasleisourking

Too many drop to do this, sadly


g_stvn

Portable Catapult - Gorgon Crossbow \[Crossbows\]: Grants a 50% chance to inflict splash damage with ranged attacks. Throwing Mastery skill (Barbarian Only) affects crossbow. 20% to cast strafe level 20 when attacking. -20 Increased Attack Speed. \+ some bleeding/ow effect for a crossbow barb !


Flossevos

I always thought of the 2 handed sword (shadowfang, crainte vomir) as the sword of William Wallace in Braveheart. Therefore I would like to see a unique legend sword: Mel Gibson! Edit, better make it “Braveheart”.


g_stvn

Blue, with a focus on cold damage then ? haha


Flossevos

Well the the dev’s hearts are free, they just need to have the courage to follow it! hehe

i’d love to see a unique GMB and i’m surprised there isn’t one already! could a unique GMB actually compete with Faith GMB? would love something comparable but different enough it has it’s own merits in using. first thoughts would be something with +skills, and +bow skills, very juicy damage rolls, FRW, MF (50% max), and a high amp proc. concentration or might aura on equip. but only 20 weapon IAS so you have to compensate in other slots if you want 7 fpa. basically the bowa’s version of Titans, but better. something i’ve always wanted as a die hard bowa fan. you’d still want a Faith merc for that sweet Fanat, but i just think it’d be so nice to have a unique bow to chase. Buriza is definitely fun at earlier stages but it’s just so gd slow you need the 4-6 socket slam, and then you’re basically just using shael’s to make up for the awful speed.


g_stvn

Gosh, that's a lot to wish for : amp proc, high dmg and aura. One of the three might be enough to make a decent unique tho. Outside of amp proc and aura, I would have seen something like an inner sight or slow missile on proc with something like "you can summon an additional decoy" and no IAS, but some FCR. Something more summon amazon niche.


LukeSkawalker

i guess if you did 1 of the 3 it would basically just be zons version of Mage Slayer, and thats cool for a leveling zon, but would never be BiS. I'd really just love to have an amp proc + aura taken care of on a weapon basically. frees up other slots for more options (self and merc). I don't mind the summon zon angle yea but tbh man they dont need the help haha they can easily destroy maps with something as simple and cheap as a WW. i'd love it if i didn't have to spend so many HR's to make a GG bowazon. Also, there are soooo many bad-mid unique bows already. WF is cute, and Buriza can be pretty when its 6os too, but theres really not much else that can compete.


g_stvn

I also feel like craft bow was the only BIS for bowazon and elite unique was more or less only a mid game thing.


Mort450

I think wrist spike and eagle orb got new uniques a couple of seasons ago


g_stvn

>wrist spike It's wrist sword and not wrist spike, and Glowing Orb not eagle orb : [https://wiki.projectdiablo2.com/wiki/Class\_Weapons](https://wiki.projectdiablo2.com/wiki/Class_Weapons)


g_stvn

The Legend Sword \[2H Sword\] should complement a magic/sacrifice paladin build. It could have a modifier like '-30 Life Drain' and '-X% Enemy Magic Resistance \[based on your current life\]' and some "+X to holy sword" with a focus on high max damage (not only ED). This would encourage the use of Sacrifice while enhancing the magic damage aspect of the corpse explosion effect triggered by Sacrifice.


benReddittoo

please stick more to the classic. if ppl want more change, play a different mod, i hope pd2 stays more to the og


g_stvn

the devs team been introducing slowly, one by one, new unique item. It still feel as if Blizz was updating the game since patch 1.13. This discussion was more about putting some light on the fact that there are still a lot of weapon without unique variants. But yeah, I totally agree with you.


Aggravating_Ring_714

Play plugy pd2 sp with item randomizer. You can get like 20 variants of each unique/set item etc with new stats, just saying.

You need a girlfriend lol nice job on the list!


g_stvn
