What is this word "hope" you speak of?

Any bluebar has greater lore from lvl 12 up but that's for offense shit, not hjealing and while crit aura or renewal ticks are nice, you can't depend on crit AT ALL.
Maybe someone who doesn't play the game and designs shitty loot has some idea about bladeforged fvs that has both repair and life magic spells ? It's just the weirdest lore combo on an item, but hey can't access beta so wtf do I know.

So is any EE GH stuff worth shit anymore? 

Thinking of liquidating all of it in a fire sale.

I've seen Screenshots of +10 Competence damage bonuses.

imo raid weapons from fot and citw (even weapons like an eSOS and eAGA and the fire greataxe from cannith challenges) are still viable end game weapons cause of how shitastic that stuff is (unless you find superior loot gen, if so please tell me)

The new items shouldn't eclipse everything else.  That's why people were complaining about the shrinking end game. 

+11 stats is extremely worrisome, as it kills a ton of previously end game gear.

Luckily +9 stats in heroic levels kills leveling gear too.

luckily otto and bigby boxes removes the need to level if you can pay.

Yeah, I dont have a problem with loot being better in new content, or loot being better as you open up new levels. I dont even have a problem if old loot from old packs becomes outdated.

The problem is when there isnt enough new content to keep people busy. I dont want to farm 10 new items from 3 new dungeons. I want to get 15 or 20 new items as I run 20 or more new dungeons. I want a couple of new raids. I want something at the end of the game so I can look at end game, look at TRing, and decide which one I want to do with my toons, and not feel like there is no real choice.

Im more than happy to replace all my old gear if I dont have to chain farm the same boring dungeons over and over because there simply isnt enough content.

That said, I also dont think loot should be the way to fix broken game mechanics - like they seem to be doing with EE mob DCs.

Plus, the BTCoE thing is getting ridiculous. They sell us Shared Bank, TRing is a major part of the game for many people, then they shaft us by making us have to throw away loot every time we TR because none of the new loot is BTA.

the best loot in this game has never been BTA unless it was a mistake or an exploit (raid loot, epics).

stop acting like anything has changed because you can't just do whatever you want.

How many times have you TR'd?  26 times for me and never once have I considered BTA loot to be "the best".  Stop posting about shit you have no fucking clue about.

I don't know about the rest but I consider Cannith crafted BTA loot with g/ slots to be pretty awesome for TRs

If BTA guild slot items exist, then I've never seen one and I looked for years.

Lots of BTA gear is useful but it's not the best.  You don't need "the best" for TRing either.  It's insanely easy.

Sora Kell set? Expeditious Retreat clicky? lol.
