    No but doing anything that puts those weapons ahead of the others while they are easy to obtain will always result in what we have now, people excluding other people from joining because they do not have a prestige weapon. Remember back when only a handful of people had Relics and Mythics? There were no shouts like this back then, because the weapons were not this common, with their commonality came the problem that is player exclusion based on not having them, and without essentially ruling out the basic forms of them, basically all levels under 99, you allow players to enforce this kind of requirement onto other players.

    For now, Emps are seen as better than most or all weapons that are not of other RMED categories, they are also seen as very easy to get, so long as both of those things are the case, it can easily be a requirement to join events for people. Not saying some things should not require a great deal of gear, but saying that these kinds of restrictions are stupid, and unless something is done to rule out the lower leveled RMEs then you will see these kind of shouts continue. The weapons can stay the strongest, I have no problem with that, but if they should make the lower leveled weapons weaker in the overall flow of things, otherwise, we will keep as we are now, where RMEDs are required to play certain jobs in most parties because of the exclusionary way most leaders form their parties...

    But if Delve weapons can be given to people who just start it will be the same problem, If delve weapons are so easy to get people will only want delve weapons, excluding newer or returning players from getting the delve weapon in general. At least if REM are the top weapons a casual once a week player will be able to get it over time, where as if its delve weapons they can only get one if all their friends are: 1. still playing, and 2. feel as if they wont drag the group into a wipe.

    Like i said before im now being told i cant do voidwatch without owning delve weapons....at least back when REMs were the strongest weapon i could say "i have vereth" and get an invite.
