​POE - Some angrily anachronous Uniques in the game

I'm not talking about the adeptness edge ancillary of things (ie. Lightning Coil, Crown of Eyes) but added antecedent account niches that no best exist.


For example, with the addition of burning casting for a lot of account skills, Kitava's Thirst and Asenath's Chant, two items advised to automate casting of account spells, accept collapsed in actuality by the wayside. Additionally, Asphyxia's Wrath (the anathema admeasurement on afterlife quiver) grew out of draft with the accompaniment of the bold anytime aback Blasphemy was alien (Path of exile currency and additionally doesn't advance Blasphemied blame either, RIP my Doedre's Derma body I tried). Accustomed how abortive the abject items are, and not in a "it's just a levelling item"-way like Slitherpinch or something they in actuality charge a abounding rework.


There's aswell in actuality a few items that are in actuality old and charge to be adapted to see any use added than bell-ringer fodder appropriate now. Rashkalador's Patience, Sybil's Lament, The Restless Ward, Winds of Change, Maligaro's Virtuosity, etc. Some of the ones I listed could be candidates for blighted Uniques, but that has a few downsides associated with it too (SSF viability, arrangement of advancement prophecies to bead amount acceptation there's a agglomeration of abortive ones lying around, black newer players with abandoned altered drops, etc.).


Anyway maybe GGG does something with the "update old content" affair of the accessible masters amend in 3.5, but I in actuality ambition to accomplish some acquaintance and altercation on the topic, abnormally as anyone who enjoys authoritative jank builds with abhorred items (I'm aggravating to do an Asenath's Chant Frenzy Quill Rain Discharger appropriate now, it's array of adequate until I low-roll triggering Discharge for 15 attacks).


They did a appealing ample altered account amend a few patches ago, wouldn't be afraid to see accession one in the future.


The uniques that you acknowledgment in accurate admitting all accept some alcove acceptance or can be a advantageous bead in SSF or as account options. Unfortunately in barter leagues the 'average' uniques bound become anachronistic due to how bargain and simple it is to get acceptable leveling uniques and rares.


Kitava's and Asenath's Chant are body enabling uniques that in my assessment accept an absorbing architecture and I anticipate they accept a lot of potential. If you're acquainted of Abracadabra argot they're the 'Johnny' uniques - they adeptness not be optimal or even acceptable but they accredit absorbing builds (like the one you're trying). As a Johnny myself, I anticipate they lose their agreeableness if they're fabricated to be acceptable or easier to body about as that causes them to be added boilerplate and beneath special.


Rashkaldor's, Sibyl's, etc are all alright and accept some use still but they ache from the aloft barter devaluation.


- Rashkaldor is mostly accompaniment for SSF, the a lot of altered above about it is 'Cannot accretion adeptness charges' which doesn't accept a use yet and the actuality that it is the alone amulet that increases arctic continuance (along with freeze/shock duration).


- Sibyl's Lament is still a solid leveling ring for basal advance builds. Its appliance has been bargain with the abatement of reflect mobs but GGG has hinted the actuality that reflect attrition adeptness affect the Thorns Nemesis mod in the approaching (the one that shoots a annoying brawl aback at you).


- Restless Ward is one of the accomplished sources of collapsed activity about-face you can get. This can be advantageous in a brace of ways, the a lot of accessible accepting adjoin Lab accessories (and maybe the darkness?).


- Winds of Change are great.


- Maligaro's Gloves, it's a little sad how these use to be the go-to gloves for Crit builds but afresh got outshined by Facebreaker of all things afterwards the nerf (and afresh that got nerfed too, RIP). That said they're still alright for leveling (req. akin 21), and abundant for SSF crit builds. The capital botheration with that is that Crit isn't absolute acceptable during leveling so it has a array of conflicted role.


Anyway, yeah, a lot of uniques can use a touch-up but I don't anticipate it's that big of a deal. There'll consistently be some auto-vendor uniques and that can't in actuality be apparent because even if they're good, they'll acceptable end up as bell-ringer aliment as continued as they bead commonly; I frequently bell-ringer S-tier leveling uniques like Goldrim/Wanderlust or able body enabling uniques due to how bound they become attenuated and because I'm not planning to play that accurate body in the league.
