What I like is that as soon as you hit level 70 and play on Torment 1, you might find that gg-rolled perfect primal weapon. And where in D2 you had 'lesser' uniques to pave the way while farming, normal/ancient items are the temporary replacement in D3. 1% chance for primal is still better than the 0.0001% chance for Tyrael's Might and that kind of stuff. This is basically bringing D3 back to where D2 was. I will just farm and whatever primal ancient weapon I get, that's what I'm gonna do. In many seasons, I didn't hunt for one particular weapon I just took the first ancient I got and ran the build for that (or tried to fit it into my build). which REALLY isn't more mindless than paragon grinding.

now you can hope against hope that the last needed item drops, is not only ancient but primal ancient AND has the right stats rolled. i am glad, that there is a distinction between 3-8 hours per day and 24/7. It's why I can understand the mostly negative feedback.īut in the long run it's a minor improvement to the game, especially if you're mainly playing NS.

Players with less playtime or determination will still suffer from this. I rather search for a primal ancient item than mindlessly farming paragon.īut lets be honest it only diminishes the gap between 24/7 players and players (like me) who are efficiently playing between ~3-8 hours a day. It's about the grind yeah, but it's Diablo. This is a step in the right direction people! Paragon will now be even less important considering the diminishing returns on mainstat. Does nobody realize that this is actually a good thing?
