Are the new forgotten items overpowered?

**Nick41324** · 08-16-2012, 11:51 PM

I have to say yes...
Please "dumb down" the forgotten items, or at least take a second look at the stats on them. After playing pvp for about 1-2 hours (in lvl 55-56 pvp), i realized just how over powered they are compared to other sets/items of the same lvl. A forgotten bow with a sewer plate/helm is much better than a 600k custom set. They are ruining exclusive sets/items now.

Instead of paying 1-5mil for awesome rare sets, you can now pay 50k for an over powered bow with insane dmg.

I really wish sts will take a second look at the items stats :/

It's a temperory event. Also they may give high damage but look at what it does to your armor

Its temp just for the week then they go away. Calm down

Adapt and overcome, that's all i'm gonna say.

So ugh, do these people think that we are too lazy to buy these? Show me one person with enough wealth to buy "top gear" who wants these OP weapons around... If you weren't blinded by your need for an OP weapon you would realize that they ruin any kind of balance, especially for low level...

To the question "Are the new forgotten items overpowered?" the short answer is yes.

Uh, Me.

Hate to break your rant, but i've got 2 gold caps to spend on top gear but didn't feel like it was worth it since my Tiki Bow set does more damage than the Crafted sets and Elite. Seemed to me that people were just wasting their millions.
And i like the new purple Forgotten bow. It finally adds a bit of armour back in and does even more damage than Tiki. So there's your example. I have cash to buy the Elites and Crafted sets, but i like the new bow better and glad that they are dropping and affordable.

I doubt the devs will nerf it, to many people will get mad because they already spent money on the new items and even more ppl will flame about this stuff.
