Introduce Set Items (similar to D2) in Patch 0.4.0

I really hope they NEVER do this.
It is the main reason d3 has been destroyed.

Only 'sets items i want in poe2 are like the ones in poe1. They share a theme, sorta work together, no set bonus, and if you wear more than 1-2 pieces youre gonna have a trash build.

(Blight / beastiary armour sets like farruls)

Sets in D3 were terrible, but in D2 they were a solid addition. GGG would just have to do it correctly is all. People keep on bringing up D3, need to get that bad taste out of your mouth. I'm talking about Sets in D2, which were well designed.

Set items aren't a good idea. First with the rarity of this game would be a dream to aquire. And as a second thought all it needs in game is significantly boost modifiers of Unique items and also add more.

Unique items doesn't feel stronger than rares if you except the special unique modifier that rares don't have. Boosting them significant will satisfy those who want set-items.

Uniques items are great, but vastly different than set items. Set items are cool because they offer specific bonuses when multiple pieces are worn together. It would be a fun addition for PoE2.

lol. Sorry, but terrible idea for this company.

Could you imagine... A full set of gear, every single piece gimping you fucking worse then the last. Gawd. Thanks, but nah!

As is, POE2, imo, has literally, the worst uniques i have ever seen in this genre across 25+ years. They are just bad. I can't even imagine sets from GGG.

Post Note: To be fair, its not like any of the competitions (modern) uniques are much better, but they are better, slightly... At least they're designed with purpose in mind, not just 'lets add this counter productive affix'.

Is it just me, or, are all the fun uniques basically lost in the days when 'Live Service' wasn't a thing?

Ever since developers started this horseshit micromanaging of your play every other day on a patches notice (and largely turning offline games into online only) , shit just went down hill. Meh, maybe i'm just gettin' old.

Sets can be tastefully done, if they craft each set for specific play styles.

For example, 5 set bonus can completely negate Temporal chains, or immunity to instant death eg: left with 1 HP.

They can also introduce complete random stats in the gear so if a player wants to build around that set it would take continuous farming to get that extra str/dex/int or slot or something to farm for.

Unfortunately, I would assume their item creation is also randomized lol.

Agreed. I think they could make full set bonuses pretty powerful, working towards a specific immunity.

The feedback section is wild lately. Sometimes I think they should just adapt everything that is coming from direction Diablo lately, put it in 0.3. and force everyone that argued with that to play the full duration.

I'd love to see some sets in the game but ggg isn't competent enough to design and implement sets with meaningful and balanced bonuses that wouldn't make people feel they're forced to use the sets
