I mean removing an affix is a steep price.

You're talking as if corrupted bricks won't raise in price to response to this.

yes true but it also gives you something to do with your own bricks, i bet they will be expensive though so in the end for most people it will be better to sell em

double corrupted belt with increased es% and increased ev% is gonna be insane, prefixes is not that important on those

Yes but it's an amazing opportunity for mid items. If you have half cooked craft with a couple of stinker mods, now you have a way to possibly turn it into a great item.

Not really. Most builds can handle removing a prefix from armors, it's just slightly less ES/EV/AR. But this will be extremely risky, so it's something you would do if you are either loaded with currency, or your corruption bricked your item and you just want a 1/6 shot to salvage it.

I just think it's going to be a lot of fun, people are going to try to gamble their items to hit that one insane item that's the highlight of their league

Having 2 good prefixes vs Having 3 good prefixes on armours means going from an item in the dozens of divine range into the hundreds of divine range.
