Strange Choices in Item Design, Episode 7: The Hammer of Life

I've had the Epic Hammer of Life for a while now, nice heal-clicky. Today I decided to looking into Legendifying it.

Compare, if you will, the epic and Legendary versions:

https://ddowiki.com/page/Item:Epic_Hammer_of_Life

+6 Enhancement BonusIcon tooltip.png
Greater DisruptionIcon tooltip.png
Greater Disruption GuardIcon tooltip.png
Heal +17Icon tooltip.png
Repair +17Icon tooltip.png
Heal, MassIcon tooltip.png — 3 Charges (Recharged/Day:1)
Empty Purple Augment Slot Icon tooltip.png

https://ddowiki.com/page/Item:Legendary_Hammer_of_Life

Heal, MassIcon tooltip.png — 3 Charges (Recharged/Day:1)
+15 Enhancement BonusIcon tooltip.png
Greater DisruptionIcon tooltip.png
Greater Disruption GuardIcon tooltip.png
Heal +21Icon tooltip.png
Repair +21Icon tooltip.png
Empty Purple Augment Slot Icon tooltip.png

\Does this feel like a legendary weapon? Literally all they did, so far as I can tell, is scale it accordingly. Not a whole ton of effort here.
  

I'll never understand the propensity of people to brag about being good at a video game. Its a toy you play with for fun. The only person who should be proud of you is your mother. If you're 3.

Ok.. I'm ashamed to admit it.. but most of this was pretty funny.. but the part about his soul stone made me laugh harder then it should have... if only because I can see someone actually doing this
