The problem is that people post items worse than common Uniques, sets, and runewords.

Such as the hydra edge that someone paid $5600 for that’s worse than EDC. But because they bought it for $5600 it must be a trophy.


lets not pretend that blatant spam and horrible takes are relegated to just sub-trophy worthy posts.

post any LLD item, guaranteed "my lvl 99 hdin would rek this"

post any solid 5-6/6 roll rares that arent beaten by uniques/runewords, guaranteed "this isnt a perf max roll so its not a trophy"

post something for a suboptimal but fun build that still works, "only noobs build vita you'll get crush in fpk"

this sub went to shit as soon as killersdream showed people perf roll items weren't theoretical. i was there gandalf, i was there 3000 years ago.

The point is most rares, even with 5-6 affixes, aren’t better than common uniques.

So yes it takes an almost import level item to belong in the trophy room.

If shako or edc or enigma or aldurs or chaos or fury etc etc etc is better than your rare, it simply isn’t a trophy.

its really small brained mentality at the end of the day. if an item is 100% perf or near enough not for the non-perf rolls to matter its a 10/10. if its close but with 1 mid roll that's a 9/10. if it's super solid but missed on maybe 1 rolling low that's a 8/10.

then along comes an item that got all the right rolls, but 1-2 rolled mid or low. that's like a 5-7/10 rating. what rating? the trophy rating. yet you'll see 100x more "not a trophy get it out of here, mods remove, this is shit" posts than you will honest ratings, again trophy rating. anything 1/10 and over is a trophy. we rate trophies here, or at least we're supposed to. instead it's 8+ item getting half hate and half rated, and the rest are just spammed until they're closed.

didnt use to be this way FYI, people posted solid chars that still needed a few pcs upgraded all the time, solid roll items, etc. and got constructive criticism and honest ratings.

Discussion room is a better place for solid chats that still need a few pieces.

This is the trophy room. Only actual trophy needs to be posted.

But that’s the current cultural phenomenon. Everyone thinks they deserve a trophy and recognition.

Should Be a new sub forum. Participation Trophy room. That’s where 99.9% of these items belong.
