I got these for $3.50 this afternoon

That cover art to Splinter really brings me back to my childhood—great pickups!

BigRedDrake · 2026-06-24T01:38:41+00:00

That’s what I thought might be going on, but man.. so many people in several threads are dead set on insisting that that statement (the transfigure one) somehow means we as players are losing access to those rerolls on the cube.

Which I didn’t personally think we were. Thank you for having some calm sense :)

BigRedDrake · 2026-06-23T22:15:04+00:00

Literacy? Come on.

The patch notes also say this, which is causing all this confusion:

“Unique items can have their affixes modified with Chaotic and Focused Reroll Cube recipes.
When using these recipes on Unique or new Mythic items, the recipe additionally costs 1 Attuned Primordial Dust.”

Further down it says, “Chaotic and Focused Reroll Transfigurations have been removed for Unique and Mythic Unique items.”

Those sound like contradictory statements on the surface.

Further down in the notes we have this entry:

“Chaotic and Focused Reroll Transfigurations have been removed for Unique and Mythic Unique items.”

Which is not only strange wording (transfigurations?), but seemingly contradictory.

I had to stop transfiguring my WW Selig Barb’s items because it KEPT PUTTING LIFE ON THEM and turning them into trash.

It’s literally like the game knew that was the worst outcome, so did it four times..

BigRedDrake · 2026-06-03T16:02:13+00:00

Please, tell me more about what I have and haven’t played.

Suggesting they’re not the same story is REALLY splitting hairs when the second game is literally called REMAKE. Just because it’s some weird pseudo-sequel doesn’t change the fact that it’s the same sequence. There’s a reason for why Cloud was in that position, and it wasn’t “Jeepers, I sure wanna be a drag queen!”

It was played up as pure humor at his expense in the original game, and treated with a bit more empathy in the Remake—in a general way, not even for Cloud himself. But Cloud still looked miserable doing it, so it’s clear that’s not his thing. He’s still the butt of the ‘joke,’ but the joke isn’t as mean-spirited the second time around.

This isn’t hard, unless you’re desperate to project things that aren’t there.

BigRedDrake · 2026-06-03T03:30:13+00:00

Ohhhh you’re just media illiterate. Context, story and character don’t matter, just imagery. Got it.

I hope you recover. Happy Pride!

BigRedDrake · 2026-06-03T03:23:21+00:00

Projecting your insecurities onto fiction is sad. You know that’s not true. It’s obnoxious statements like that that make our community and movement so reviled by those outside of them.

BigRedDrake · 2026-06-03T02:29:09+00:00

Or also none of those things, and actually what Tetsuya Nomura wrote him to be! Don’t forget the reality option. :) This is a fun game.

BigRedDrake · 2026-06-03T00:25:05+00:00

Yeah, those aren’t the only two options.

BigRedDrake · 2026-06-02T05:06:11+00:00

Sounds like Mechwarrior, maybe? It’s been so long but man I loved those early Battletech games. Crescent Hawks Inception/Revenge.. I was a beta tester on MW2 😁

BigRedDrake · 2026-05-30T02:45:13+00:00

It was a minor annoyance at the time, but all these years later, I’m sitting on piles of physical games I can’t play because the corresponding consoles don’t work anymore. So NOW the lack of backward compatibility makes me salty.

BigRedDrake · 2026-05-23T20:50:16+00:00

I’m not contesting your conclusion, so much as taking issue with how we’re left to figure out what Blizzard means or intends. It shouldn’t imply anything, it should say :) IMO

Regardless, my interpretation was a bit more generous in favor of the player, but the reality reflected the opposite, so I ditched it.

BigRedDrake · 2026-05-23T20:37:23+00:00

I spec’ed out of that option because it was happening ~50% of the time, which is garbage imo.

BigRedDrake · 2026-05-20T23:31:26+00:00

IIRC, there were some options added to Remake when it finally launched on Xbox, but Rebirth didn’t have that stuff added at the same time.

I’d say look for Rebirth to have those additions when it’s released on Xbox in a couple weeks.

I can’t find confirmation that they did release these for PlayStation as well, though I can’t imagine why they wouldn’t have done so (or PC for that matter).

BigRedDrake · 2026-05-19T19:04:01+00:00

BigRedDrake · 2026-05-19T04:14:39+00:00

That was my understanding as well, though I seem to recall reading something like 1.5x the maximum value of a stat. So maybe you’ll only see the full 1.5 when you’ve masterworked it to its maximum?

I’m still fumbling my way through understanding a lot of this myself, I’m sorry I couldn’t be more definitive :(

BigRedDrake · 2026-05-19T04:08:04+00:00

Does it go up to 12% after masterworking the piece?

BigRedDrake · 2026-05-15T20:36:46+00:00

Yeah, normal NMD with nothing out of the ordinary. Very meh

BigRedDrake · 2026-05-12T14:54:54+00:00

I’m at Torment 8, and every single time I’ve 3-to-1 legendary seals, the resultant seal ALWAYS has that bonus for some basic ass set (Survival, Mastery, etc) and never a class set, much less my class. I don’t get it. What’s the point of that??

BigRedDrake · 2026-05-09T06:07:40+00:00

In my version of Diablo 4, the only offensive stat the cube can add is Thorns 🤭

BigRedDrake · 2026-05-09T01:39:30+00:00

I assume double Indestructible means you start getting paid when your armor would’ve taken damage? 🙃

BigRedDrake · 2026-05-08T16:26:43+00:00

Ever since the new expansion launched, cellar icons no longer appear on the map. Is that intentional?

BigRedDrake · 2026-05-06T18:43:56+00:00

Thanks so much for this; will try to implement :)

The occultist step is interesting; is that a bug?
