They are already mostly obsolete.
Really? Pinion is obsolete? What's the better bow i'm missing?
What about Balizarde? There is a rapier out there that offers better than 28.8 base damage and has +8% dodge and +2 good luck on it? Not including the planar set, the phlembotizing upgrade, the red slot, or the +8 bump.
What about Celestia? There is a short sword offering better than 22.3 base damage WITH radiance? And banishing, planar set, +8, and a green slot?
Nightmare, even with the change to the neg leveling, is still a beast. Mine has a 35.5 base damage rating on it (fully upgraded). I get +5 or +8 HP per swing from the vamprism. Toss in some neg levels, untyped damage, foce damage, and the occasional PK.
I disagree. The loot in CiTW was holding up better than FoT. A lot of the FoT stuff got wiped out because they maxed at +8 stats and such. All of which got trounced by loot gen. My Tablecloth, for example, used to be sweet. Now it's good for....being a tablecloth.
