U55 level cap increase - I am confused guys

Okay finally went through the notes for U55 previews in lamannia. I am really confused what this legendary levels is all about - I do not see new legendary feats (common or class specific), and half the page that MF Steelstar has wrriten is about Epic destinies.
ELI5 what this legendary levels is all about and mainly, why they are selling this shit at $130?

The only nice thing about this is that there will not be a horrendous gear-desert. If you recall they went from 20 to 25, and most of the original "epic" gear was 21-24 and BtCoE, then all the lvl 26 gear was BtC raid stuff. Then the cap jumped to 28 and they had the good sense to make most gear BtA. Unfortunately they never updated the early epic loot and the mid stuff is all raid gear. And all the lvl 28 gear sucks. So there is a horrific gear-desert between about 23 and 29.

At least with 30-40, we can look forward to modern gear every 2 levels!
  

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.

When sharn sets came out it was 15-29 where people didn't regear.

Probably pointless replying to him but for the others who question it...
Why does anyone need more fucking look when the new epic level 20 shit is basically all you need to level in R8 all the way to cap?
You even got epic SOS for fighters who don't want to suck.

Now if you had said... why don't they just make some loot that auto levels along, well then, you'd have a point...

You can play the whole game from 1-32 butt fucking naked. Some people actually like equipment.

What im annoyed at is having to regear at 31. Most people gear up at 29 because that's where most of the legendary gear is (barring a few things like legendary elder's cap and gem of many facets). Using level 20/21 gear to 28 before regearing with legendary gear at 29/30 to run endgame content is OK, because that's just two sets for the whole of epics.

Regearing at 31 again is just going to be annoying however. Yay, another set of gear that we need to keep track of.

I'm not sure how OP the new level 31 gear is going to be though. Is it leagues ahead of the current level 29/30 gear?

No. In most cases, there's very little difference.

New loot will probably be OP as fuck, then get nerfed when next expansion comes out. Come on fellas, this isn't our first rodeo.

You can see much of it on Lamannia right now.

The named items aren't really that impressive.

This has been my experience so far perusing the lama threads on the motherboards. I haven't spent much time looking at it but so far it doesn't seem like there's even any set bonuses.

There's set bonuses for the crafted dinosaur bones stuff, though.

The crafted stuff might turn out ok, but the named stuff is nothing to write home about.

Pretty much guaranteed that the new system will allow an unbelievable amount of flexibility in your gearing, will produce superior results to virtually every other previously released systems or sets... 

... and then in 14 months Steel will openly declare the system as 'over performing' and nuke the living fuck out of it

Yap the named items aren't "legendary" either. No new features or abilities, not even an increase in the crit multiplier. Just more craft-yourself from Lynnshit.

As is, I expect this will be the new default DPS set for both melee and ranged. The numbers are not higher, but it has all the most important things in one set, so it's going to be preferable to wearing two sets that partially overlap or doing one set + 3 augment slots to fill in the artifact bonus you are missing.

But we'll see what actually comes out on release day.
