[2023] Suggestion: merge uniques for LP

It's a relative difficulty problem. If you wanted to add a system like this without significantly impacting the general rarity of LP on items, you would need to have a different amount of items required to combine for each unique. The number of wings you'd need to get 4LP would be something silly like a few trillion. I don't know what the actual number is but it's very unreasonable to expect it to be reliably attainable.

Lower level uniques would be more reasonable but at the lowest end it would probably still be something like 25-30 uniques I think. I don't have the numbers in front of me at the moment.

Have you ever tried to combine up to high runes in D2? It would be a kinda similar situation.

The item factions will also have a very significant impact on specific item acquisition speed.
