The purpose of wearing plate has become nothing more than crippling yourself to look like a knight... or maybe its my lack of athletics

so people can't powerlevel and heirloom everything. People were complaining about how easy it was to level up so this is what happened.

Except, like the last attempt to "fix" the issue retirement/heirlooming causes, this simply punishes those of us that DIDN'T take advantage of a broken system while leaving those that did with all of their gains intact.

IE:  Low gen/new players are fucked, and the gen 10+'s already have a shit ton of gains.

This would have been better if combined with a gen wipe, and heirloom wipe so everyone is on the same page with the same grind and same gen-xp bonus to work with.

because gen 70+ characters have triple heirloomed everything
Also, I have declared myself #1 NA hybrid thrower
Formerly known as Marathon.
As an NA admin, I am the most laid back and concerned with the ~fun of the game~ above all other factors. I've also been super inactive since Summer 2012. University takes most of my time, but I still find some time to play when i can.

The biggest issue I have with this is that for months dedicated players have been putting their time helping this mod grow via testing, bug submitting, submitting guides, creating sub mods, ect... In thank you we were supplied with a small reward for our dedication, then they strip it down as a slap in the face.

I get the reasoning for it, however, there are other methods to be utilized for the same outcome. We dont want to have to bust our asses just to get to 30 but if you want us to bust our asses to get to 31 for a hierloom then that can be solved with a dynamic lvl cap which causes the amount of exp needed to be earned to lvl from 30 to 31 and beyond increased based on the gen. This way the difficulty of retiring for an heirloom stays stagnant yet we get to enjoy the benefits of lvling quickly.

You have no real room to complain very much.  You already took advantage of broken systems and now have triple heirloomed items in spades.  Feel glad that you even have that bullshit.
And I should be nice or polite to anyone.... why exactly?

lol yes because my triple heirlooms.. what kept me alive longer? i have a fully loomed charger, ive seen it be one shot by a greatsword. i have fully heirloom chest, i get 2 shot half the time, again by 2h. the only things that seem to be worth heirlooming were weapons, and now my lance is use less and i have nothing to use my xbow with since im not 1h atm.... heirlooms are nothing special, ive killed goretooth in his fully heir loomed set with a non heirloomed great maul(love that its 20 str with 1 less weight...) and broken system ? wtf i didn't do anything differently than any one else. i played n guess what i hit 31, why go on to 32 when i can retire n heirloom n try a new build. but no i get judge cause i have heirlooms. cool story bro....

What exactly are you complaining about ?

You're saying heirloom are useless, but you're whining because you can't get heirloom as easy as before ?
mmmmhh....

It's to make the newbies not able to retire, so while all the high gens already have their entire equipment triple heirloomed, all the new guy have to play for weeks and weeks just to get 1 heirloom and still give us a penalty after that.

This game is elitist.
