this is the close minded thinking that the devs have problems with...instead of tailoring it towards "plate healer" or "leather fighter" it should be "damage enhancement", "healing enhancement", "utility enhancement", "survivability enhancement" etc. etc.

you would find much less loot rotting, and people actually being able gear themselves in whatever role they have. I don't know why they haven't done this yet.

It would be interesting to see them implement '"damage enhancement", "healing enhancement", "utility enhancement", "survivability enhancement" etc' through adornments dropping off of named mobs (differing strengths based on solo/heroic/epic), and then they could make some base armor sets so people could choose to adorn themselves to fit their role.

and just to clarify, I dont think they should make completely new effects to accomplish this, I just think that when they make an item they need to stop thinking..."what would a leather fighter want?"

what they need to think is "What would someone want that plans on taking massive amounts of damage in a short period of time?"

Shit you could even have them with the ability to wear plate mitigated with some sort of proficiency skill effecting base mit or anything else that causes imbalancing problems.

But the fact of the matter is whenever you manipulated demand or supply, such as in this way demand, b/c even though someone wants it they cant get it, there created a deadweight loss in the same way taxes, tariffs, or quotas create a deadweight loss. SOE did realize this, to their credit, and in trying to improve upon their design, whether purposefully or incedentally, creating adronements which at least gives marginal value to these dead weight losses. Unfortunately it looks like they used x-muting as a means to just think that if they make specific gear that can't be used well they can just xmute it and at least they will get cash.

Shhhh...don't make them nerf Green Dragon Shield man. With the way many things have gone when we've complained in RoK (hit rates, Rangers and arrows, etc.), they will nerf something instead of fixing the problem.

Virulence

Signet of Dar still a shameful POS compared to solo quest reward.

Is this a "Ginger" item or what?

Has this stuff been tweaked since the original post or is this definitely it?

PaWn

Some of its changed, i know for a fact that Soulshattering Band is now mage only again. Dunno about what else might of been changed again.

LFG

I spent 2.5 months of DKP on that shit after a dev announced it would be mage priest.

They better not do that.
