Chargeress PVP Sorc

Looks good. Only exception is that the HMP attacks are WDM based, so they'll have some low damage on phys, but hopefully the plague boost and added ele damage accounts for it. I like it. Bring life to HMP again. These teasers are looking good.

Wow... I really don't know what to say...

I only hope you guys don't make the same mistake that blizzard made with D3:
Ignoring 90% of the skills and thus forcing people to play certain builds because items power up some few skills to a degree that every other skill turns out to be useless in endgame.

If you can do that: very nice

Will these special uniques be class-specific weapons only or other items like Amazon helms?

[Crash]

It's not a special unique as much as it is the unique that is an example of the uniques that you'll see in Sigma. SB has been working (or has worked and finished?) on a major item rework for the new TU and SU classifying systems. This is more or less an introduction to the removal of the less useful, weak SUs that are almost always immediately sigged without thinking or hesitating.

Long story short, my guess would be that over time, almost every SU will be tweaked in some way and a majority of those auto-sigs will see reworks like this one, but perhaps not quite as strong or drastic. We will see I guess.

Sacred Unique =/= Useful

I guess that changes in this patch

[iwansquall]

I have been hoping for "legendary affix" for very long time.
Those affix should bee unique and only obtain from certain item (not in rare affix pool)

Last time median have couple of affix that only appear on unique, but mostly just flavour text or useless stuff.
There was some couple of powerful affix that appear on various RW though.

Perfect balance it is hard to get, but I really for more build enabler for mid-end game stuff.
At least I could have some fun with basic SU rather than playing for boring grindy usual stuff.

Is the "40% more damage" for blood thorns applied the same way TCD is (like poe) or is it the same as increased damage?
