Please don't consolidate its stats into base 7 damage, base 7 ele damage%, base 7 ele defense%.
This is not reverse psychology it's a genuine plea.
It has the most IDs of any item in the game and it's full of stats that have 1% chances to roll perfect, making a perfect Melange absurdly rare and not even that good.
Seeing huge blocks of text however are great (See Inconceivably Deranged Paper Mask of Legendary Victory or the crafted known as The Everything that had 29 ids) and I think that having a weapon whose tooltip is half IDs is great.
Is there any advantage to consolidating it anymore since doing so would remove its flavour and there are many other items that are consolidated in some form or another already?

Thanks, and good to know.
I distinctly remember Deja Vu was something like below, a very slow relik with low ET damage and high WFA damage, and also heavy damage boosts to ET/penalties to WFA.
There were a few other stats like maybe melee% but I distinctly remember it was this strange relik with a scheme not unlike Noise Stream where it was technically rainbow but you were supposed to provide additional elemental damage with powders.

yuh

#

but that's not very deja vu

#

much funnier to reference an iconic early game item imo opinion

ancient mirage
#

It wasn't but I don't know why the choices were what they were

#

Also this is also an appreciation post for Avocado/Guacamole and the Nerium Spear lines too.

Both Melange and Deja Vu are stupid

WTF

hexed steeple
#

now this has to be ragebait

#

nah, stat bloat does not equal interesting

#

unless you double down, give it every stat in the game & every req (other than class obv) in the game

noble blade
#

yes give dejavu thorns kb reflection!

ancient mirage
#

This is a reasonable concern except there are very few "bloated" items left in the game now, unless you count ones that haven't been located and compressed yet.

dreamy owl
#

most unidentified items have been condensed or have been left uncondensed for a reason

#

besides some that still have main atk dmg and spell dmg

#

melange deja vu libra and rainbow are some left uncondensed intentionally

#

(the item named rainbow)

ancient mirage
#

Is there a reason Broken Balance isn't condensed?
Also there are ones like Gemini or Leggings of Desolation or any of the base 20 or -20 spell/melee damage planned on being compressed too?

dreamy owl
#

broken balance literally just has the 2 ids so it's staying for the sake of the item not being even more 1 dimensional

#

the rest of them is kinda a case by case basis we may have missed them or if we removed one it would look barren

#

sometimes its not worth condensing them because the item is valuable and condensing them means it will reroll the dmg roll

#

like pisces stratiformis (broken balance again)

mighty lily
#

How about condensing spell and melee dmg to just dmg on gma, strati and freedom (All bows for some reason)
