Requested patch 2.6 updates

Post your requests and discussion for patch 2.6 here!

I’d love sunder charms and

Terror zones available offline (I know

Terror zones probably not feasible)

Rare charms!

An optional loot filter would be cool (again may not be possible)

Some new rune words would be great

New uniques or updated uniques would be cool

More available character profiles for offline use would be neato

A currency tab for runes, gems, tokens, etc would be great (although probably also not feasible)

In a perfect world...

- A BiS cold and magic respectively equivalent to Flickering Flame so Bone necros and cold sorcs finally get helmet options that don't inherently look beyond daft.
- Remove some of the crap TZs from rotation (sewers and such come to mind)
- Add TZs to single player (don't rly care about that personally as I don't do SP beyond testing random builds but there's no real reason to exclude the SP folks from this)

Apart from that...fix bugs/optimize. Like...REALLY fix bugs.
Finally make chat work reliably.
Fix that completely broken interaction between item labels and target locking.
Optimize

Shadow Master

Teleport and shenk Death so they don't annihilate everyone's frame rate more often than not.
So on and so forth.

I still hope they will implement stackable gems and runes

I’d also like to see everything be gambleable: wands, heads, pelts, Amazon bows, scepters, barb helms…like y not?

single player sunders of course

2.4 runewords on NL
currency tab

visual personalization of gear via

Anya's quest

right now a rune word looks like a plain armor/weapon, while some uniques/sets look dope-

lookin at u

Leviathan ....

More shared tabs. Like 6 instead of 3 would be SO practical.

Increase character limit. Add 2 personal stash tabs to characters (resulting in more overall tabs across mules than just adding extra shared stash tabs). Stack gems and runes. Get rid of the Sunder+Infinity nerf again to make other builds outside cold sorc viable again. Etc...

A couple weird ideas:
• Allow Cannot Be Frozen to roll on rare items.
• Rune words that can roll with sockets? What!?
• Allow A5 Mercs to hold & dual wield other types of weapons
• Move some Ladder only Runewords to also work on NL
• Make some rune words work with more gear types
• Give bowazons a mini shield or something.

That's low hanging fruit like more characters.

Not quite the same thing, but I've always felt that there should be magic/rare/unique

Bolts and

Arrows that do... something.

That's a cool idea - make the

Arrows/

Bolts an item to be picked up. That would help balance the missing shield stats.
Also, I like the idea of crossbows...it'd be great to have one that actually slaughters. A rune word for crossbows only that shoots berserker axes.

I've always thought part of the game was the item management aspect, but I would like to see one more shared stash for sure. I think also an increase to the online character limit would be nice.

I didn't that back in the day you could just keep making b.net accounts to get unlimited mules though... I thought they required a CD

Key to be input? I remember buying multple copies of the d2/LoD combo box to get more cd keys but now I don't remember why...

I actually really like this idea as well.

What I'd like is:
1) allow everything that's ladder-only (tz, sunders, runewords) to both non-ladder, and offline as well.
But bein a realist, I know it's not gonna happen - features like that are carrots for mule folks, tools to keep ppl playin ladder, instead of givin em fully comfortable lagless, ppl8 single. "We want to encourage u all to cooperate", huh?
Yeah, sure. Damn farmers sweeping my trade games, annoyin pvp seekers, or just some random fukkwits are fine examples of such "coop".
If I want coop, I trade crap within trade camps online, or sometimes visit

Baal/cow/tz/whatever run. Or even rush some1, if I feel like bored, or generous.
Otherwise, I don't need what I see instead of actual healthy coop.

I was just thinking about the

Arrows/

Bolts as an item with magic properties.

Arrows/

Bolts need to be held in a quiver, or other carrying case.

What if Amazons had magic/rare/unique/runeword "quivers" to hold the

Arrows?

Then the quiver would take the arrow slot, and

Arrows could be a small little square, or just a count on top of the quiver.

Yeah, they actually did that in D3, for the Demon Hunter's quivers (well, not rune words), so there is precedent in the series, in a way

Looking at my bowzon, I honestly don't think they need any extra stat boosts. Quite fine as is.

That having been said, what I never - even in the olden days - ever understood was why blizz decided to make

Arrows such a bloody pain in the ass to deal with.
Why, unlike any other ranged weapon in the bloody game, can

Arrows/

Bolts not be refilled by hitting the damn repair button? Why the hell do you actually need to drag your half empty

Arrows out to sell to make room for a new full pack which you then have to buy in full from the same vendor you just sold your old

Arrows to that wouldn't let you just do that via the repair button? Why oh why does it have to be such a bonkers annoying as hell restock mechanic?!

So...all for magic

Arrows/

Bolts that either do not deplete or that replenish quantity, much like many a throwing weapon. Or even only making current

Arrows restock when you repair at a vendor. It sounds small but it'd be such a massive QoL improvement for bowzon play...ugh...
Hell, even when they revisited

Arrows they refused to fix that crap and merely upped the stack size...wtf?!
/endrant

Beyond that though..yeah, not seeing why my zon should get more bonus stats. Or at least nothing major. There's just no need for it.

I agree that they--bow using Amazons--don't really need an extra bonus.

I mean, if you could toss Spirit or similar in a quiver she would be massively overpowered.

A lesser boost, like the replenish

Arrows you suggested, would be good.

I was thinking something in between... not basic but not really an extra stat boost either with the added aspect that they couldn't be refilled at all.

I guess you might think along the lines of found

Bolts and

Arrows as always being ethereal of sorts. They would, in my dreams, be somewhat potent--perhaps supplementing damage variety without actually adding additional damage--but have only 500 maximum uses--with randomness not guaranteeing a full stack--regardless of recipes or repair making the ridiculous management of said

Arrows and

Bolts something that you did for the situation.

Add a box that let's you enter your birthday.

On that day, you'll receive one very HR and one high level perfect unique drop or significantly increased odds to drop.

This will never happen, but if they're looking for ideas, I'm putting it out there.

PS: Guess what day it is for me tomorrow... No bias at all on my submission...
