I want 2.2 to be a "reset" for players in full i90 gear. Make Turn 6 a distant goal.

They were remade, not removed.

It's poor game design to allow people to catch up without having to play though old content that no one does?
If you ever played WoW, you'd know how hellish it was to replace someone from your static. No amount of "prestige" is worth the hassle of going to older content you're sick of doing and hoping to heavens stuff drops because lol lockouts.

Also the whole game will become pointless if new people aren't staying because they don't want to eternally play catch up.

And it's sad you're bothered by such thing as "the guy in greens". So you play to be better than others, and not to beat content with others?

(sorry, but people getting all defensive about their gear in a vertical progression MMORPG is absolutely hilarious)

Yeah, Warcraft is still trying to fix their wild Item level problems

I don't think inflating them is solving anything.

After 8 years we're gonna need one of those too.
If you don't raise the power considerably people won't feel compelled to upgrade, will just beat the last dungeon using their old gear and quit.

Uhh... No we will not if they aren't retarded with gear resets and wild inflation? EQ and XI did just fine without gear resets. When your 10 lvls above the old cap due to an expansion it makes the older raid content a lot easier and allows you to go in with a smaller force to grab the gear to do the newer content.

If you somehow think making old content so worthless no one who didn't play when it was current has ever even seen it then I don't know what to tell you. Expansions EXPAND on the content. They aren't supposed to make it so the only reason the old content even still exists is because that's where new characters load into the game.

You want Coil to stay ilvl90? great. WHAT THE IS THE POINT? We are not getting special gear stats, we are not getting progress, what should we get then? same old stuff with different colours?

So at what point did someone say for it to stay ilvl 90? Pretty sure opposing a 50% increase is not saying you wans a 0% increase. They have made it pretty obvious that each tier will be 10ilvls higher than the last. And since the raid content is tiered CT > BC > CT > BC

CT1 = 80
BC1 = 90
CT2 = 100
BC2 = 110

Not that hard to figure out
