I really hope to God ow that you are going to lower the stats of the new EoB items...Seriously introducing items that top the best in the game for a free quest that takes at most 4 days to do even with mediocre max rage/rpt. The wep is better then proton...and has better stats in everything but ramp (usless theres so much else where) and in attack to a Reforged Sacred Blade. I thought it was supposed to be an accomplishment in ow to get a RSB but aparently i was mistaken. And look at every other item...head is far better then the next best which is prolly obliv or diabolical, belt is same, far better then obliv/v2, pants duh, boots are close to woz same with neck, ring is still better. Shield is the only thing you can argue with about not being the best item...but still damn good. People said Woz items were too strong, and you lowered them, not a whole lot but you did which was good (and yes thats coming from someone who has the woz items) and its also different from woz as that when we did woz we knew it would be ending, EoB looks to have no end so you can take your time and let every single account eventually have the BEST ITEM in that slot. Now i know people are gonna say "blah blah its new items obviously old ones will be outdated" Sure do it, but make it so you actually have somthing to accomplish when your doing it, or done ie NEW HARDER GODS...idk if admins realize the servers are getting stronger faster, zhul has been dying on spawn on torax, sigil, and fabar for a while now...and it took only what...7-8 months for rancid and zimb to get there kills too, now what? you keep adding in way powerful items for what...making gods that are already easy even less of a challenge? So please i hope you take a look at your new items and atleast lower the rest of the pieces to the stats of your boots, if not lower. the 1k hp 350 ept/rpt has to go...

meh, you write 2 much, but i really really think that this is ok i guess, i mean... Everyone has a fair chance to get the item, all they have to do is be above lvl 45, and doesn't have to depend on having amazing raiders or points to get them an item as good as this...
i mean, the quest is pretty hard, but people are just sticking it out because they want the item... If you guys are gonna lower stats are anything, to keep the players of ur game happy, do it as soon as possible cause lowering the stats later would just be retarded....
kinda like when ghoulish dagger stats were lowered from like 48 exp 3 gemmed or something to like 20 back in the day, that was pretty lame and angered alot of people... now people spending points to gem the items because the stats are nice, possibly even swaping a good item they had before to use this item in its slot.
idk, i think its ok, its not like a holy blade of the order, only given to the top people...
W/e you said about the economy won't be effected as long as these items are player bound, so peopel can't sell them just to make points, then people will be selling them cheaper and cheaper as the weeks go on...
hmm also if you can only do the quest once(Which i think i heard) its fine imo...
as for the quest, i think its hard enough (some people just like quests while others hate them) people who have finished this quest only did it because of furies (which prob if anything kill this game, since people use them to finish everything faster and not to mention with furies people use them to dcaa like all day and grow 500k + a day on single servers)... most people wouldn't be able to finish in aobut 4 days unless they have like 2k rpt which doesn't happen unless ur sexi like me :P :)

u can only get 1 item so it doesn't kill the economy if u could get the whole set now that would be bad :P

I like the fact that anyone lvl 45 and up has access to a high end item like these instead of having to pay some crew for lifeforces or SG's. But you do have to work your a$$ off for one of these.

If i was a lvl 45 and i worked my a$$ off for a week know that the stats of the item i'm able to get and the fact that this one item might get me onto a top crew and at the end of all of this only to find out that, that item stats have been decreased because of someone whining about the stats are to high. i would be sooo pi$$ed off.

12 said No to lowering the items 2 said yes. And the items got lowered. Oh Joy? A quest that takes top accounts 4+ Days, who knows how long for lower people has just been made pointless.
Its not like anyone is at an unfair advantage. Anyone over 45 can get the item, and thats a good level. Its not hard to get to 45 with a little effort.
Lowering the items was just retarded.

A new line of potion gods, potion set gods new 5mans and a few new kro shuk raids should be added. Maybe they will be added to EoB :)
But dont revolve everything around resist.
the boots u get from doing this quest are sh1t, they should have never been nerfed this quest is long as hell so for a lvl 45 who could possible spend 2-3 weeks trying to complete this quest, they do all that work for an item they could ave bought for 50 points they need to go back to 200 rage and 200 xp ungemmed

2 - 3 weeks is being generous. It took people with top gear 1/3 that time. . .Now imagine people with tons less rage per turn/max rage. (Obviously I'm agreeing to you).
I think all these nerf calls are silly - The quest is long, tedious and considerably harder than any other quest in the game. Considering half the games population got WoZ items in the last round that are amazing for doing almost nothing I don't see the problem here.

talking about almost nothing what about the 1000s of players who get god items weekly from all gods and to beat gods equals doing almost nothing!!!!!!

Yes but gods get easier with time which is why I didn't include them. At one point Synge was damned hard to beat to get a wrath of god. It just so happened that over time he got incredibly easy. Same thing with Nar Zhul (not saying he's a cake walk), one day no one was beating him at all and now people are able to as there equipment gets better.

i was just making a point that its easy to do gods join a few accounts skill a few accounts ect and gods drop 3-15 items and take few minutes yet these quests can take folk months and stats on items are average at best

They should just put them back to what they used to be. This is getting ridiculous.

what makes me laugh is that most people started complaining about the item stats before they had even completed the quest so they had no idea how hard it was. what makes me laugh even more is that outwar listened to them and lowered the stats

free oblivion pieces basically (if stats are going to be how the boots are). Which means soul gems loose their value pretty fast when the set is completely out there. Its kind of nice because of how hard it is to get some of the soulgems (at least on sigil server, you are not going to take the LF gods unless you are extremely quick and can beat crews that have 4 crews each) but at the same time, sucks for people that did work for their oblivion items, or spent money n them, because now everyone over 45 that puts in alot of time can get them.
I don't understand the nerf, this was a huge update to the game, alot of time was put into it from developers, and now alot of time is being put into by players. An average level 45 will not get these items any time soon, and I don't think these should be the best items in the game, I do think they should represent not only the players' hard work, but also Gregs.

Well everyone has a fair chance at getting these items. You complain that its hard to beat crews that have 4 crews each. This is a way for a 45 to put in ALOT of work and actually get something that they will use for a long dam time.

that actually was not a complaint, and i was saying that was the upside of these items is people can earn them on their own...........
