In D1 the stat system was a lot more simple than it is now. There were 3 stats and every spread was the same, for example every pair of gauntlets were 40–60 every chestpiece was 60-80. And that game had glass needles.
Now, in d2, there are 6 stats to spread and it is completely random. You get 40-60 stat points that are distributed 100% randomly throughout the 6 stats.
So why in the world are glass needles NOT in this game?
The only way to consistently get random exotics is grinding Master nightfall ordeals. So this week, since the ONLY thing I want in the game right now is transversive steps with intellect and recovery focus, I grinded these Master nightfalls. I did 30 of them. In the loot pool of 28 EXOTIC ARMOUR PIECES, I got transversive steps once. I was really excited since it is VERY hard to get a worse roll than the collection roll, but they had a resilience discipline focus of course.
So... why? Why was this brilliant item introduced in d1 and extremely well received, and then removed in d2 when the stat system got MORE complicated? I... just don’t get it. They don’t hurt anybody and having high stat roll exotics is awesome.
Please add back glass needles.

They aren’t really removed, they never existed in this game. They should come back though.

I too would love to see them return. The current exotic farm is awful at best.

1 ReplyI think it's just something they haven't gotten around to adding back in. Like choosing weapons or armor packages from Vendors. Or weekly Raids. Or a few other head scratchers
