Mythic armor upgrade? or trash with new lvl cap?

[Haligali]

Mythic upgrade was a fail, using the same helm and armor for seasons long caused inflation on everything else, prepare for 50m+ mythic weapons if they gona be upgradeable again. And please don't force me to use this 2 year old helm. http://www.spacetimestudios.com/showthread.php?p=989316

I hate looking at those mythics in my inventory that I worked so hard to obtain and now can't sell, use for anything purposeful, or even stash to give to an alt. Would love to hear the final word on these sets!!! We are talking about gear that we spent some serious time and gold to obtain when they first were released. I think an official word on them is needed too. Good post KK.

They are totally stash-able Candy, and not only that, but you can upgrade there gems on your alts and they get the upgraded mythic armour achievement the moment they unstash it :-)

Ohh lol. Well ok truth is I don't have any other alts to pass it down to. Hehe. Good to know though!

Make it downgradable to level 31 or make it tradable itself.

Then just let the market flood with 5000+ mythic armor and helm. So it will be cheap and the ordinary players can finally equip mythic rarity helmet and armor.
It doesn't matter if it would be sold for 500 gold, the rich owners doesn't care (they preffer the make it collect dust in the stash and go for level 46 mythic). Unless Level36 PVP becomes popular again. With the downgrade system of those old mythics, I bet its a close posibility. But for as long as the upgraded mythic is not tradable, it will eventually become a collectors item in the stash. A bulk of data on the server which is stagnant and thats not productive.

So the choices:

1. Make it tradable. The market will be flooded with 5000+ sellers of upgraded mythics. Which will gain another marketing revenues:
   
   • Level36 twinking- with the prices so low, this is inevitable. And as that bracket popularity rise so as those upgraded mythic's price eventually. Remember why the twinking became popular? Its because not everyone can afford the endgame items but still wants to experience AL PVP. Before those twinking gears were so cheap that a 100k is already a top geared, now it becomes expensive and still rising. This can happen to upgraded mythics too.
   • Chance for the mercher to hoard and wait for what the future brings. When time comes the STS makes the old mythics discontinued, this will become very expensive (the cap will be level 76+ when that happen tho).
2. Make it downgradable to level31. The market will be flooded with 5000+ sellers of downgraded mythics. Now ordinary farmers will be able to farm for gold to buy it and have the "Hero of the Legend" achievment. And also will open up those possible new profits I said above.
3. Let it as it is. No change will happen. No economic tantrum no possible profits. Once a player got the achievement and got the new level46 legendaries (I know they will be better than a level 36 mythic) or got the new level46 mythics they will only have three choices :
   • Those items will collect dust in inventory or stash. This will only be a bulk of data on STS server which has no revenues or anything and its a bad sign. Because a former best becomes dust with no chance to profit and in a game, it means that the game is ending its lifespan.
   • Make a level 36 twink. A wise choice, but it wouldn't be as popular as when the upgraded mythics becomes tradable/downgradable.
   • Liquidate. I included it for the sake of arguement.
4. Becomes an ingredient of a certain item. A move that will save the upgraded mythic's value.

*Heck, there where a big big flood of tarlok legendaries back from the tarlok winter event, and a lots of forumers where complaining because you can't sell it for highier price (500 golds if your lucky). An yet, look at those tarlok amulets/helm/armor today specially on lower level twink brackets. They are steadily rising in price or holding its own price tag.

[Dex Scene]

Oh, please, not this post again.
Are you seriousky suggest that lvl. 26/31 gear should be competitive with lvl. 41? Get over it. You've had your fun with it and now it is time to move on.

Make it available to sell so we can move on.

[Dex Scene]

If a mythic set gets outdated whats wrong in people getting them for cheap!! It will be still better than liquidation fee i can bet.
A "HERO OF THE LEGEND" is not any rare or worthy ap anyway!

[Sir Lubo Penev]

Leave them mythics in the past. With the new cap, introduce new and fairly easy to obtain legendaries with better stats.

[Butterbiscut]

lvl 46 isnt coming for a while imagine how pissed imbued owners would be if next season came in march haha

[Wutzgood]

Would be a terrible idea to upgrade again. It's been around for way too long.

At least you can always stash it and give any Alts the achievement and title with one set. Class doesn't even matter.

[Ebezaanec]

For the people who who feel frustrated after working hard to buy the mythic set:

You all purchased it at a price proportional to the time it has been released.

If you upgraded it at the release of the upgrade quest, you received 100% of the time and paid 100% of the price. Anyone who upgrades the mythic set now will use it for 20% of its time and therefore pay 20%of its price.

[SacredKnight]

The Mythics are old armour now. Best be working towards those imbued sets To be frank who is going to liquidate their Mythic Armour which they bought for million+ for like 5000 Gold anyways? Honestly just stash it and use it for another toon, as far as my knowledge goes there is a bug where any toon with the full set gets the Achievement AP and title.

[XTmaster]

Making myth set tradable will result in myth flood in AH/CS. And players are using the same set since a year or more. So upgrading it further is not a good idea.
What can be done?
Option 1 : MYTH SET INTO A VANITY
Myth set can be converted into vanity which gives bonus stats. The bonus stats can be +4dmg or +5 to +10 primary stats when full set is equipped.

OPTION 2 : MYTH SET AS A INGREDIENT
Myth set can be used as a main ingredient to craft a myth egg, or a new weapon. It can also be used to upgrade items like blood ring to l41.

#PoorMythics #LolatimbunedLegendarygears #DuhhhitsLegendary #upgrademyths -meh im too lazy too type constructive sentences, heres some hastags for all lol. Btw not a fan of imbuned gears its overrated a season or two it will be just magma gears, planar gears and druid sets lol. Its time myths gear shoulb be upgraded, lets make this. "It wont kill the virtual economy if everyones happy"

[Dalmony]

If the upgraded mythics are going to become obsolete/twink gear then something needs to be done with the achievement points which come with it.

Perhaps turned into an achievement for "mythic crafting" where crafting the new mythic amulet would also gain you this AP, or any other craftable mythic which the game presents us with.

Either that or remove the points for the hero of legend AP so that it only grants the title but I don't feel this will be a very popular option.

[Candylicks]

Or we can trade it into a vendor for a para gem? (:

Just thinking outside of the box an all here.

[Universalpro]

The best option is to keep them non-tradeable
As energezic explained what would happen if it becomes tradeable, itks not a good option. With the new expansion old items will always get outdated(as happened with hooks and even glacian/hj ).. Its not something new.. Why the resistance then?
They have been here for a long time and we have fully utilized them already.

[Astride]

Too much has been said for something quite simple to solve.
Making the current mythic sets a minor ingredient among the others to craft the new mythic sets will be the best solution.

This!

[Kriticality]

Didn't sts say their plan was to move on from these mythics? Did anyone say there was new mythic armor for the new cap? Hope not especially if it has rarity of that new mythic pendant haha. I just want a new mythic ring and new mythic pets. I think it's unlikely that the set will play a large part in anything going forward. Invest in pets. They level with you.

[Ellysius]

It's really easy for you rich people to complain here,how about you shut up a little bit and let the Dev's do their job?
Just so you know,there are people that can't afford platinum and which implicates that there are people that don't pop thousands of crates in one night.
You should really put yourself in our position and realise how hard we worked for our mythics.
