Boots - movement speed should be implicit

does anyone use boots without movement speed?

Yes, although rarer, some builds dont use movement speed on boots because they move via skills like Whirling Slash and that movement scales with attack speed, not movement speed

Ah interesting, lucky

I might try that with leap on warrior and just leap everywhere I go like POE1

for 99% of builds this makes complete sense and don't hinder builds that would NOT benefit, but again it'll never happen

Guess what. If the make boots speed implicit, they would not touch corrupted boots as done it previously with old belts.

Those could be like rare Easter eggs of the playtest era x)

I'm curious now if one of my body armour pieces are from an older patch and didnt change because it was corrupted. I can't even find a higher level item with this much ES. Unless I scored a really good deal. It is corrupted too.

It makes logical sense to me that Boots would have implicit speed and if the prefix mod was movement related, like slow resist or faster movement on low life.

It just makes sense to have that as a mechanic, It doesn't make sense for there to be 1 movement prefix for boots and that's it. The others have nothing to do with movement.

Indeed 0.1.0 patch gave a lot of insane gear items that can't find anymore in market even with insane currency values. That's why still some builds remain OP and corrupted items didn't loose power with any nerf came with later patches.

I think a full erase of every item in any League will bring balance in game despite of players disappointment it's a guaranteed solution.

See this suggestion too much and it really is silly.


If you want a mod... for free...


Then why add an implicit at all? Just ask for more movement speed.


Which ill say no to as well.



Its not like anyone is going to be running NOT boots. As if there is some hollow foot technique.



Last thing we need is more defensive power creep for ES on boots. Or just free mods in general.

I think it all comes down to what would be done with current ms prefix.

Agreed, adding ms implicit on top of existing prefix is indeed silly idea. Would solve almost nothing. But it can be handled in multiple different ways.

1 - prefix nerf, available number so small they aint necessary and most of ms power still lays in implicit.
2 - prefix rework, f.e conditional ms boost(preferably not full life condition)
3 - prefix removal - whole ms stays within implicit. This makes room for new prefix or leaves thing the way they currently are.

I`m not so fond of solutions where one affix makes or breaks an item. While i can live with +x to skills and similar dmg/def affixes i think boots ms rework would actually improve leveling experience and address many complaints about campaign time without being broken and against "meaningful combat".

We most likely will see more implicits with introduction of blessing orb, question is whether boots will be included.

+ level to skills is another gripe I have because once you get it, you cant live without it. It's another one of those Essential mods that will brick an item if it doesn't have it. It's kind of Essential for endgame.

+1 but doubt it will happen even with full release. You see streamers are having the lead of everything here.
