Since he allegedly won't make the lootz anymore there is a chance some of our nice things will continue to be meaningful. But honestly it would be shit if level 30 raid gear didn't invalidate some lower level gear. It'd be nice if it didn't invalidate everything of course.

	They literally just gave everybody 2 free CiTW weapons. I expect the Pinion to stay best in slot, but I expect those new "legendary weapons" to be strong.

I'd be OK with them doing some weapons, but not completely invalidating Pinion and every piece of CiTW loot. Same with FoT, although it will be difficult with those hard coded stats on several of them.

	I completely agree with this, if you did not spend the time to earn your lives through to completionist, you have no right to flaunt and brag about achieving it.

	It's sad really that pretty much all of the CITW weapons are still the best of their type 1.25 years later, including the level cap going up 3. With the effects CITW weapons have, a lot of them should be more niche-y.

With the effects CITW weapons have, a lot of them should be more niche-y. I disagree. When the cap was 14, people were wearing VoN, DQ, and Titan loot. Heck, the Chattering Ring was popular for 4 years. Bloodstone was still being used at cap 16 and 20. It came out in 2006. How long has Litany of the Dead been relevant? Or Torc? Talking weapons, Greensteel was king for 3 years. eSoS was champ for about 3. There were level cap raises during all those timelines. I don't think 1.25 years is "sad" at all. I'm not a fan of the treadmill we have been on the last year and half where every 6 months loot is completely turned over. That's annoying as hell. I'd rather it was harder to get and lasted longer.

	Feynman wrote on Jan 20^th, 2015 at 4:57pm: One thing for everyone who is a "skeptic" on this issue: Insurance companies are basing their underwriting on the assumption that it is real. They are refusing to write policies on homes that are likely to be in danger from rising seas 20 years from now, even though the resale rate of the homes is so high that they could keep writing policies for another 10 years and still not have to pay out on 1 policy in 5, but that would be irresponsible. Unethical, as well, but that's never stopped anyone before.

	I see it as an achievement. He used whatever method and tools he had, and is on his way to his goal. Doesn't bother me what he does in game. If anything, his post opens up possibilities and ideas to other players. Someone mentioned his build, focusing on EH, trading for stuff, buying stuff, whatever. Some may have walked away from the thread appreciating a new way to reach their own goals.

Nice guy. However, this isn't what we disagree on. I'm not the only one that disagrees on what constitutes an achievement. I'm not against supporting turbine. Heck, I've bought 12 hearts during the sale. I'm not gonna be posting that under achievements. If my best pal in game did this I would still call him out on it. I have no agenda against him, I just think it's really, really stupid to post it as an achievement. It was 80% this and 20% trollface. I really, really want 6 percent doublestrike on my sorc. Make use of the esos in his inventory... I'm actually doing 12 lives each on 3 characters. I don't see much benefit beyond 12 until completionist feat. At best I would do 1x doublestrike pl because the passive AC with it is utterly useless.

At best I would do 1x doublestrike pl because the passive AC with it is utterly useless. Therein lies the rub. You and I agree on a lot of things. What he posts in the achievements forum is up to him, not me. I'll support it though because I like him as a player, and we kick it under the same guild banner. I don't post achievements. I don't see the point of it. Like you I tend to laugh at people posting things in that forum that I've already done, or wouldn't care enough to try. . But really, it's his thing. It's what keeps an outstanding player playing. I support that. But yes, I do agree that it would have been better to have posted it in the Khyber forums as opposed to achievements. When I get a chance to talk to him later on today, I had already planned on bringing it up.

Meh, I might get interested depending on what these new raids look like. Folks doing it early though on their arcanes I'm sure are enjoying the (bugged?) spell crits. Til then I enjoy my heroic tr's and keep at least two at level cap to run with friends/guild. Or farm shit.

	Who really cares how he did it.If he exploited its turbines fault for 2 reasons : 1) they cant write code properly 2)5k turbine points to buy a box full of crap is way too much its obvious p2win which i am fine with but come on look at what they want for epic hearts/iconic hearts and 4200 coms is a sick grind

It isn't because they don't exist, it's because loot sucks ass right now, with little to no variation in named loot and random garbage loot filling best in slot for over half your gear slots.
