Legacy items are bullshit

Believe me, that 500 flat life can be make or break for a build if the goal is to hit 100. Sure, that would mean the build wouldn't be HC viable, or lvl 100 temp league viable, at least not doing the same content one is in standard.

I can't agree with that statement, you are suggesting that a build can't get to level 100 without the difference of the legacy kaoms, its not the item that enables the player to get to 100, its the extra leway for mistakes, but the only circumstance where life = damage is RF, otherwise its just buffer and if you play properly you don't need that buffer, its quite clear from multiple level 100 characters over the past few leagues you don't need a kaom 1000 HP to get to level 100.

And that there is the other thing I don't get. Was your leisure time any less enjoyable to you because somebody had something you didn't? Was your own custom build less novel to you? Was seeing it come to fruition any less satisfying?

That reek of entitlement infuriates me. It wasn't until you started comparing what you had to what your neighbor had that you started feeling slighted. It doesn't matter how often it gets repeated, the attitude is near-universal.

People don't resent the 1% because they're actively working against their interests, but simply because they don't happen to be in it. Somehow, they too rightfully deserve to be there.

And in a video game, it's not like these guys are lobbying against your best interests, corrupting the government, degrading your healthcare or sending off your sons to war. You're not fed any less. I really don't get it. They just want to have their private collections and sit on them.

Are you even able to read? I am the one in the position of power, with iiq and legacy uniques and so on. I said that I doubt I would play if I wasn't, due to being forced to rely upon the mercy of others to get on their level, no matter how much I try.

Stop trying to justify an unfair system just because you benefit from it. I benefit from it, and want it gone, so the game can go forward. So bosses can stop being balanced on gear that normal people will never have.

And learn to read before replying.

I'm suggesting a build doing crazy content.

You are reading any build doing limited content.

Context, always bad to ignore.

If you weren't in a position of "power," you'd perfectly resent those who are in it.
So yeah, the only injustice of the elite is when you're not in it.
At which point, you feel perfectly justified storming off in a huff.

I can't enjoy a 30% Lightning Coil build? Whyever not? Just because you have a 40% one?
Your tone speaks louder than the specific details of your argument. That's how little content there was to grasp.

You can enjoy whatever you want, but new people that actually want another item, besides the ones that drop to them, should have the same chance at getting them as anyone else. Legacy items would not change anything for new players if the economy did not exist and every single drop was bind on account and parties did not exist.

I will not comment on your 'elite' argument, since you can clearly see the flaw in that philosophy, and if you do not, I feel sorry for you and want you to know that you are currently impeding the progress of humanity. And just in the off chance that you do not - injustice is injustice, not injustice that does not benefit me personally.

Lastly, arguing about my tone instead of my argument is a logical fallacy that does not deter from my argument.

Then they're overly-entitled, stodgy and incapable of adapting to change. If they can't enjoy a video game simply because somebody else owns pixels that they don't own, their priorities are backwards.



You have entitlement problems. That's all there is to it.
Progress? Right. Because getting 1000 life Kaom's is progress.
I'll put that right after solving world hunger and cheap renewable energy.

Oh no. This isn't a simple ad homimem.
I can infer the entire content of what you've said simply by skimming you.

GGG need to do something with Standard and suffer consiquences for their mistakes. But they won't because in capitalism making money is goal, not creating something outstanding.
