'BoE/BoP' by varka

Hi Troy,
Some of your comments changed my mind on the BoE/BoP changes for low-end items and bags, but I still think it's bad, bad bad for rares and higher items. Given that rares never flooded the market the only reason I can see for this change is to support/augment their decon changes by forcing people to decon the item themselves to profit from it, instead of selling it to a crafter.
I think people will find that this is bad. Most crafters will tell you they spend a lot of money buying rares that end up decon'ing into useless dusts, just hopeing for that heroic dust they get once in a while. Now they'll just buy the heroic dust and all the useless ones will sit on the broker.

'Update #2 - Sony Vanilla?' by scytale2

Loss of Equipment expertise is I guess the first step that Sony made to make Vanguard the same as every other MMO. EE was one of the most interesting innovations. I wonder how long it will be until crafting becomes vastly easier too a la EQ2 update.
This does mean, at least that Sony have a vision for the game, as there are still plenty of things for them to "dumb down". Re- PVP - with the lag and graphics card demand of Vanguard, PvP is very risky. It was one of the reasons that WoW went for the cartoon graphics.
Agreed, I like Kojan best too - the Gulgrethor Fortress is awesome!. But it's a shame that orcs and goblins have to change continents so early.
