Very interesting idea's. I mostly like the Season of Nemesis. Would love to scout for a Nemesis, and call my friends when I found one, so we can kill it together. But this will be very hardcore unfriendly I think.

I just wonder if the Season of Chaos won't lag us out.

Everyone starts with the Blackthorne set. The season of trolls.

What does it do:

You can reroll another stat of a rerolled PRIMAL item.

Costprice:

~500 DB

~1000 Forgotten Souls

~25 Ramaladni's Gifts

Example how this recipe works:

Let's take the Trag'oul's Corroded Fang for this example to make it easy.

The stats are:

+1560-1940 Arcane Damage.

+1000 Intelligence.

+1000 Vitality.

+23,950 Life per Hit.

I would like to be able to reroll the LPH to AS. So without using the recipe the stats become:

+1560-1940 Arcane Damage.

+1000 Intelligence.

+1000 Vitality.

Increases Attack Speed by 7%.

Now I want to get rid of the Vitality, so I use the new Recipe, and my Fang is re-newed with the exact same stats. I'm now able to reroll any stat I want.

So I reroll the Vitality to bonus dmg against elites:

+1560-1940 Arcane Damage.

+1000 Intelligence.

Increases damage against elites by 8%.

Increases Attack Speed by 7%.

Now to be able to reroll the Intelligence for another stat, I have to use the recipe again but this way every bad rolled Primal can become useful.

The way it's supposed to be.

Greetings!

What kind of themes would you like? Here are a few suggestions for upcoming seasons:

Season of Chaos

Double elites and bosses outside grifts. For increased chaos and excitement all elites spawn with another elitepack or boss.

Season of Nemesis

On very rare occasions, extremely powerful ubers spawn outside rifts and drop guaranteed primal item. Also, primal droprate is increased outside rifts.

Season of Ancients

Legendary and set item drop rates are reduced 80% from total value but all drops are guaranteed ancients or better. This actually improves chances of getting ancients. No junk legs, quality only.

Season of a Farmer

Double bounty materials, double gr stones and extra gem upgrade for staying alive.

Suggestion graphics use Blizzard's graphics.

I like the idea and the variant about ancient items. This should not be avaliable to normal legendaries.

The problem is it has a good appealing to keep farming materials and give the player the illusion to keep getting better. Maybe it could keep some players playing for 1-3 weeks longer? =)

Sorry to dissapoint the OP, but what makes you progress right now is the paragon level. Take this for example:
*Imagine you have all the ancient build itens, but you miss the 7% on weapon. If the primal isn't dropping for you and you want to invest in this recipe, what will you really accomplish? 1 GR higher? =( Even if you tweak every ancient item to optimize your build, as long as you stay in the same Paragon level, what you will accomplish with that? 1-2 GR higher? ...(the upside of this is that it may keep you playing the game to forge the perfect item, but when you forge it you'll notice the problem wasn't your item...)

Let's way you got to GR90 solo without tweaking your items with that recipe... what happens is that you'll need to farm a ton of mats, plus get a lot of paragons. Then when you finally get all the mats and tweak all your itens, plus 500+ paragons, you will try to push GR again and get a GR100+... woahhhh that item really makes an difference! Sorry, but that is not the case =)

I like the idea, a high cost mat recipe to keep you playing may be something that will keep you playing a season more than 1-2 week (for me at least), but the game have other major problems right now...

In the other hand, I can understand Blizzard doing nothing about paragons. Let's say they nerf the paragons, something about 1stats only for 800+ to reduce the importance of it. What will it really accomplish? My guess is players will stop playing season much more sooner... lol. The good side? A recipe like this would keep you farming mats and itens over optmizing XP/hour =)

End.
