Out from all these saltiness...

Despite all the saltiness about 30 man raid and new female-locked class, the new update did not include a new VM8!

THAT would mean that vm7 has a longer shelf life and vm6 has an even longer shelf life! Isnt that something to be rejoiced over?! No more farming for vm only to see it become obsolete next major patch (at least for now)... So go ahead and farm your SF and imperator! They will last for quite awhile :)

    Hope your post is not seen by the devs, or we would be getting VM8 and 9 in the same patch. XD

    Well unless they decide to ninja update a whole new equipment set... that's a different story. For now, i will work towards farming that vm7 fists :)

    Honestly, BHS could learn something from Blade and Soul weapon and gear system. Instead of releasing a new gear every patch, they could just rework the system so that there will be only 1 BIS gear, that you will be able to upgrade in different ways with each update (something like etchings that increases their base and bonus stats, or add new effects to play with variety and gamestyle)

    I wouldn't be surprised if we don't see a new BiS or mid-tier set in Ktera for the most part of the year, all the questions on masterworking, grinding and awakening subjects were about the slaughter and VM7 set. The reason might be the adjustments to class balance, probably they need to perform tests using "standarized" conditions, making new gear sets right now might generate not-trustworthy data.

    A system like that would work if it's not the mess it's currently on BnS, where to upgrade your weapon you need some materials that come almost exclusively from pvp, and other very rare materials that come from dungeons you would most likely not be able to party to unless you already have the weapon you are trying to make(because of elitist player logic), even for the mid tier weapons. I wouldn't mind working a lot for a real upgraded BiS, but when you need to do all this stuff over and over again just for story mode, things get old and annoying fast.
