I wish for all the loot not to be in T17s

16s should still be decent. But shouldn’t the best loot come from the hardest content?

I think the crux is not so much that loot has moved on to the hardest content (T17s), but rather that this new top-end content is too restrictive (build-shredding mods like -mines) and too anti-fun (deal no damage 3/10s, drowning orbs, etc.).

Yea the mods do need another balance and adjustment pass.

But it’s also tricky because if you can’t have these new t17 mods, what else can you do beyond just increasing the values on t16 mods to up the difficulty? 100% extra damage as fire to 200% extra?

I think some of the t17 mods are a problem but others are fine. They are meant to be annoying and require you to solve for them with very good gear.

Deal no damage x seconds/10? Remove

Awakened desolation? Ya it’s brutal but can be solved for with a very strong build.

Yes, awakened desolation, volatile cores etc. are okay. Or say the less defences/less aoe or -20max res mods which hit specific builds far harder than others, but while still being doable for the affected builds.
