Title: Heirloom Refund on Weapon Changes
Post by: Shigeru on March 15, 2011, 12:15:36 pm

Hey guys, I just wanted to throw this up here that I think in my opinion whenever the devs decide to modify a weapon any heirloom points in that weapon should be refunded when the changes are put in place. Especially for us lower generation folks it's a bit irksome to see all the effort of triple heirlooming a weapon suddenly be thrown off by a change in the base stats and/or specialization and purpose of that weapon.

Thankies.

I guess everybody that heirloomed an OP weapon (barmace , lhb, side sword...)will agree, the rest will say meh what for ?

I have none of the so called OP weapons heirloomed but next patch is going to change a lot of weapon stats and hopefully the long iron mace becomes again a blunt weapon (Seeing that imo the model doesn't look so unbalanced in my eyes) with the 2h thrust animation but I doubt the latter one.

So yes being able to change heirlooms would be nice even if just for next patch only.

I heirloomed my sidesword first thing after it got buffed with the patch. Only then everyone started using it. Now I want something different, as it really only looks good when used without a shield and honestly a long espada is better without a shield.

So I hope the sidesword gets a nerf and I will be allowed to pick new ones.

Money is earned and spent at such a fast rate now that a refund would be meaningless. Instead, there ought to be the option to heirloom something else in place of the nerfed item. Not that I'm much in favour of this anyway; if you chose an OP weapon you should be punished.
