Think the will introduce mythic gear sooner or later and that’s that
You didnt, all you did was talk about the gold cost of gear, which nobody cares about, others then RMTers, which will be the people hurt by this change…
You asked for rarity and a solution (good or bad) was provided, and was ignored (and it STILL BEING ignored)… while all u did was talk about the aquisition and cost of gear… and then proceeded to DEFEAT UR OWN ARGUMENT about rarity… by saying that its so easy to get the gold required to purchase BiS builds, even for a casual…
RMTers GONE WILD !
In my calculation 99,5% of the legendaries will be trash ![]()
when this change is impelemented to chest runs and any other activities.
1 chest run = 100 legendaries → meaning 1 bis every 2nd day only by running elite chests in BS for 1 hour a day.
is this how you want an MMO to be?
Its a game changer thats for sure.
It is a little concerning that NW constantly has META inflation.
I remember back when you couldn’t force resilient on gear. And there were no timeless shards or anything like that. You had to roll tons of gear and hope to land a resilient piece. Lots of the best players during this time only had two or three resilient armor. This is why Voidbent gear was so nice back then.
Im not sure this change is a bad thing though. It will help give purpose to gear that is currently useless and abundant.
But they still need to somehow make it so the best gear is not that easily obtained. And they also need to someday stop with the META creep/inflation. This happens every time they add something like timeless shards, golden scarabs, runestone stopwatches, etc.
Why would getting many legendaries a day kill my excitement when I finally get that BiS drop.
“BiS” might as well be a rarity class in and of itself at this point.
I agree, but imo it was more fun back then. when you did land a full bis it was really unique and got you excited all day long.
about meta change: thats a different topic that is being discussed in many other posts.
small take from my part: i think its healthy to change meta every now and then. however it shouldnt be a 180* change all in a sudden. it should be small number changes every week or 2 and not a slap into the face like they are planning to do.
let me ask you. say for whatever reason you go mining and you get a void ore, how excited are you ? are you jumping up and down ? or is it meh?
compare that same drop to back then when voidbent was bis.
Lol, the obsession with “bis” is completely insane. You don’t need bis gear to compete in any activity in the game, including wars. You can have near “bis” or a few “bis” items and be fine. Everyone acts like they can’t play the game unless they have the ultra rare op gear. Once you get that what happens if you still suck? It hardly matters. Good pvp players in blue gear could absolutely dumpster mid tier players with bis gear. Similarly in pve, you may need ward at higher mutations, but if you understand the boss mechanics and can dodge you don’t need bis gear. The only reason it matters is because you all let turbo dorks bully you out of content if you aren’t specced out to whatever imaginary standard they can come up with.
i know. its just for the sake of the argument, cause some guy might come around and argue the only reason he is not performing whilst only having 100 hours played so far is for the sake of his gear.
I agree. There is something to be said about this timeframe. No one was full bis witch made builds so much more unique and custom.
Now everyone has to run the same stuff. All the builds are the same. There is not a lot of gear variety.
When voidbent was bis, getting a void ore was a big deal
Today, getting like 50 legendary drops means nothing if it’s all garbage, so getting an actual bis drop would be exciting, yes.
100% agree
Lmao
I didn’t know we all had to conform to your scenarios to be real. It makes more sense now!
thats what i am saying. with the introduction of scarab and timeless etc.
we are already in a situation where bis isnt as exciting as it used to be.
imagine its getting 10x easier. it will result to 0 excitement just braindead opr spam.
Its obvious AGS dont know what they are doing
BiS will always be player skill and everything else is just herd mentality. Good players will perform well with off meta builds in every game. Especially a game like this where timing/dodging/ and group comp is far more important than the difference between 2 great gear perks and 3.
Are we? Lol have you ever tried to roll a bis GA?
Trust me, it’s pretty exciting even with all the “help”. Crafting is pretty bad.
dunno if you are being sarcastic…
its one of the rare pieces id argue is still very exciting to roll.
i was rolling bows before scarabs, and jumping up and down when i hit bis piece.
now piece bows are sitting on tp like junk for 100k
