I'm not saying I want to have it and only me so I feel good about it, I'm just saying I wish there was some gear hard to get, takes effort, and few have. This used to exist in the game, you could tell when someone really cared about the job they were on, and they worked hard to be as strong as they were. Now days everyone has a Relic, an Emp, and Mythic is the last real type of thing that shows how hard you worked. Also everyone has nice gear all +2 with the old pro rings and earrings. It just feels like everyone, even people who just started and leeched from 30-99 with no real idea what they are doing, can get the best gear if people help them with it. No real effort or skill is needed, for anything, only money.

I think making everything luck based only ruins the game because it means everything you do could be completely pointless, there is no guaranty any amount of work will actually pay off, as you said, some people go 1/1 like I did with Heka's while others are 0/500, and that needs to change, because all it does is piss people off.
