What items, using this recipe, could be considered major balance breakers? While we don't know of the changes to monsters' abilities, hps, resistances, etc, we can however postulate about any items known in 1.09 that, with this formula, would allow the user of the item to just dominate everything at a medium character level.
So...are there any items that anyone can consider for abuse (under the current info we have for monster data)?
-Bolty
what to look for is increase in base damage from normal-exseptional-elite and Enhanced damage
Then preffixs clearly benefitting from interaction with thesse 2 , namely deadly strike, % to cast amp and maybe leech!
And thats it! All other prefixs does not have a lot greater impact because off the upgrade (and some have less). But its a lot off items, becoming decent to really good.
major balance breakers with that in mind would be the 2 normal unique mauls, as they are easy to cube. And does big damage, but they would not bend the game more than muling good items already does!
I insist on that bows would not be subjekt to a lot more major balance breaking than the 1.09 buriza have already created. ( the gab is just closing now)
2 handed weapons is mainly ribcracker (and if build is not speed dependent the Pierre Tombale Couant)
1 handed is Coldsteel Eye (and maybe head striker). And a few more
The items there might be abusing besides this could be the ones with low low lvl reqs.
but ribcracker looks like the unbalanced one here. How to solve that blizzard ?
