Kaoms + Shavronnes legacy - pvp influence
GGG,
all the decisions you have made so far, acceptable. But this one... " ...really disappointed me. There were numerous threads on the effect of legacy Kaoms and Shavronnes on pvp. How can you be so ignorant? I wanted to restart poe in some weeks (because I cannot play right now), but tbh this NERF to newer drops of Kaoms and Shavs is not acceptable if you are interested in pvp. And that's all I wanted to play - pvp. We all know that items are everything in an ARPG. You see some1 use different, more effective skills than you? Fine copy him. Also there are very many builds out there, but not that many viable pvp builds. In any game when it comes to pvp, people use very similar builds because the builds have to allow highest survivability and dps at the same time, and only a fraction of all builds achieves that. So you wanna at least have the optimum gear, otherwise it's usually not even worth to compete. Especially if your opponent has double the life on his Kaoms?! And I just don't feel like trading for ages only to get 1000000 exalts for these legacy items. This also accounts to anyone who wants to make their characters perfect, pvp or not. Are the legacy items really necessary to succeed? In pvm, maybe not. But in pvp it definitely makes a difference. For those of you who got legacy items: Be happy. Legacy items in general are a good thing, but they should only be of value to collectors. Legacy items being op is kind of a joke to any new player. It is totally obscure to me why you made this decision. Everyone expected a general nerf, but instead you implement this future nerf (which only solves the problem long-term anyway). Finally expect the value of these items to skyrocket. 300 ex soon? 10 mirrors? I don't see any limit... http://tinyurl.com/ooety9v - Ranger bow lightning arrow crit build Last edited by Dan1986#1261 on Oct 22, 2013, 4:06:04 PM

Two theories:
Maybe GGG know exactly how many Kaom's and Shavs are out there and know they won't make a huge difference for 99% of players. Maybe in the next patches new uniques will be added that equal or exceed those in PvP value. |

Or maybe they want Standard and Hardcore to be the dumping ground.

" This is the one. The main game of PoE is the 4 month leagues and the races. Standard and Hardcore are legacy leagues, and are not part of the main game, they are there exclusively for players that want to amass a ton of items, or who like to hold on to old characters and take them out for a spin every once in a while. Bullshit, you get the game for free.

" I think you miss 1 key point... if someone really wants one of these legacy items, they can just mirror one... the difference between legacy and non legacy shavs isn't as huge as you think... its an ES balance because of the HP buff, the kaoms on the other hand will still be mirrorable.... sooo yeaa... stop complaining...

" This is pretty much true, standard and hardcore are legacy leagues, i said it was a bad idea to not do wipes before release, now the leagues have turned exactly what was legacy league in closed beta, everyone is going to be abnormally rich in them, have insane items etc. I carve and sell real animal skulls, check out my work here: https://www.instagram.com/victorseiche/

Why don't you just do PVP in the new leagues?
