because it would sound so much than sacred unique, super sacred unique, and super swagger sacred unique <_<...

Super sacred unique was the lamest of them all.

The SU, SSU, SSSU system is dated.
"Ancient" "Legendary" "Ancestral" "Nephalem's"
c'mon, guys :D


why

literally the only difference is item level. they're not acquired in any different way, they're not standardized at different power levels (for the most part), some are just rarer.

Literally no difference? Most of the SSU/SSSUs give HUGE bonuses or gimmicks to try out or boost new builds.


Op has some great ideas (beside sash, with some nerf that's awesome too). I would love to see more some kind of "gain power/lose survival" things in items similiar to other ARPGs. I know it's a lot of work to balance out that, but hey, you've failed before in that department so whats to lose?
