Feedback and Suggestions - 'Legacy' items policy, re:patch 0.10.5 - Forum

GGG doesnt always patch the item so that the old versions retain old stats. I dont see this as a problem with silver branch because it isnt a good bow unless you're below level 50 or so. Now if they were to nerf Kaom's and then let the legacy ones keep the old stats... THAT would be problematic IMO. IGN: Iolar	Posted by BRavich on May 9, 2013, 11:19:55 AM Quote this Post

First of all, Beta testers or whoever played before 1.0 should be rewarded. And if things will get nerfed eventually, what is the point of playing this game knowing that OP items will eventually get nerfed? There is no reward what so ever to the old players and I think it is fair to keep legacy items to whoever got it. They spent hours playing and whoever thinks it is not fair just cuz you dont have any, work your way to them and don't whine?	Posted by Rexinization on Oct 29, 2013, 4:51:22 PM Quote this Post

Why don't you ask the devs to stop putting in obviously OP uniques instead of asking them to leave their mistakes in the game. You try to yell bias at the people who don't have those items and yet you fail to mention the obvious bias the other players have in owning many of those uniques. You people don't give a shit about the game, just your own wealth in a video game. Pathetic. Standard Forever	Posted by iamstryker on Oct 29, 2013, 5:53:38 PM Quote this Post

" Rexinization wrote: best way is just to make legacy items "untradable" and unusable in pvp Ahh WELL ok thats a fair idea. Really the more honest decision they can take about legacy item. (really good idea to untradabe legacy item). But since they decide to create somes end-game legacy item (Kaom heart), i don't think they will do anything against. Ps: i realy would like to say more about this but since im really really ba din english i stop here. excuse my language ..	Posted by Tonnerre on Oct 29, 2013, 10:14:49 PM Quote this Post
