So my question is for items that already exist in game in the nonseason loot pool that are getting edits, are they being moved to the Season 2 only loot table?
Several existing class-specific Legendary items have been updated to include a unique Legendary power
Note: Existing items will not be affected by the following changes. Only new versions of the items will roll with the added Legendary power.
Locust Swarm is cast on a nearby enemy every second
Now rolls with +20-25% Poison skill damage as one of its four primary affixe
I was wondering specifically for these three items. Since they exist in the game already, would blizzard move them into Season 2 only? It's listed under New Seasonal Items....but they aren't new.
Also is that list the complete list of new legendaries for season 2? seems like only crusader dh wiz get new legendaries and the other classes get "new" retooled legendaries.
I can't find the quote from Bliz right now, but I was under the impression that these retooled existing legendaries would be seasonal only for s2. If you look at the season preview, the Gungdo Gear is in the picture for the season only preview, so I'd be really surprised if they were patch upgrades and not season upgrades.
To be honest, they are new items where it counts. They could have just renamed Gungdo Gear to something else and you wouldn't be complaining that it wasn't a new item, so does the name really matter?

Nope not really complaining. Just eager to test out a viable monk build, was hoping I'd be able to get to try it tomorrow after the patch...like get a gundo gear post patch but pre season 2. Oh well.
