Suggestion for Legendary Item Affixes

Hey, many legendary items have rolls in their Affixes where the Min-Max varies a lot. Many builds depend on these Affixes to work better. On the one hand, this makes Legendaries more rarity, but on the other hand, it makes some drops useless.

For example, if you have a legendary LP(1) with great Affixes and after a long time you manage to drop an extremely rare LP(2) but with bad Affixes, it will often be better to keep your LP(1), and the pleasure of having Dropping an extremely rare item will become frustrating.

My suggestion is a way to give the player an opportunity to get around this.

Today, on common items (rare, exalted, etc.) we can use the refinement rune to reroll the item’s affixes, thereby losing forging potential.

I wish there was some ‘Legendary Rune of Refinement’ that allowed you to do something similar with unique items. For example:

First Use: 100% chance of success to reroll affixes.

Second Use: 75% chance of success to reroll affixes. 25% chance to destroy the item.

Third Use: 50% chance of success to reroll affixes. 50% chance to destroy the item.

Fourth use and higher: 25% chance of success to reroll affixes. 75% chance to destroy the item.

This will give us some opportunity to recover an item.

That thing about rerolling affixes on uniques came up in last Friday’s dev stream.
