See? You guys are starting to catch my vision! I think that would be totally awesome, and give items a little bit of REAL history. Not just "I use a yakslapper like everyone else now" but rather "I have one of the limited edition Lady Blue Steel longswords from her first trip to the crafter in the heart of sorrow's furnace. Combined with my Ferragamo shield that he gave me when I saved the entire party in the Fissure of Woe and my Templar of Justice monk rod, I am ready for anything . . ."

With all the talk of 'everyone' now having access to great items and many not really enjoying that idea I just felt then eed toremind everyone of the mission statement of this game.

They're simply trying to make it easier to get these items because one of the foundations the game is built on is that someone SHOULDN'T have to slave away farming for hours a day just to afford great items/weapons/armors/runes/etc.

The idea behind the game is to make it approachable for new players and they have consistantly patched the game to that end.

I know it sucks... I just payed a whole lot for my rare air staff two days ago.

It was max dmg, req. 9 and improves cast speed: 9%, improve skill recharge 10%. its 1% off perfect and i spent like 100k on it. Now, I see a perfect 10/10 green staff, but I think it was a necro staff or something. Anyways, I hope there are no green air staffs/fire staff so mine will still rock. Or if there are, I hope they sux! =P


Speaking of customizing items with your name:

"Queen Alesia's Holy Rod"
or "Queen Alesia's Smiting Staff"

So COOL!!

"I am the luckiest warrior alive. I just so happen to wield the the Soul Set. Soul Destroya's Fellblade and Soul Surviva's Shadow Shield simply cannot be beaten in battle - and when equipped together...the power twists your soul such that are an unstoppable, raving madman with a desire for nothing but the blood of your enemies. It is like the Yin and the Yang, but an incredible defense with a punishing offense. Only, no ordinary mortal can unlock the strength of the sword and the shield. Only I can harness their power."

Awesome idea. It would be even better if there was a little place to put a story-ish paragraph under the stats area when you mouse-over the item, to in effect explain the history of these items.
