Is this the road they will continue to take with items?

Back in january, i90 was the best gear you could get. Of course there's better gear now and tougher events, so the old i90 gear (and i70) is far easier to obtain and the new base ilvl you generally want for current endgame.

I think yoshi said recently somewhere he'd like to go back to having more unique stats on gear, but then he also wants the game to be easy for new players that join in the expansion. We might see some different gearing progression, but then again, we might not.

I remember reading in one of his recent interviews that he'd think about it first (about adding unique stats) but it wont appear even by 3.0

easy for new players

new players

Once you're subbed, what you want is less meaningful than what some random person that might be a potential player might want.

I have lost count of how many times yoshi has trotted out the "new players" excuse. Keep planning for those new players SE, soon people who actually sub will get tired of vertical progression grinds.
