    Thats whats really annoying about changes like this. Now others that didn't jump on the Diadem bandwagon before nerf have to spend alot more time for an SE screw up.

    Anecdotal cases of people who have great fortune, don't alter the facts about rarity of gear, that is the nature of outcomes based on RNG. For every person who has acquired some good pieces, there are hundreds with none.

    where is your proof that this gear is so rare? I often see amazing 210 pieces in hard mode. At least one BiS per run out of all the gold chest.

    Also, your statements are just as anecdotal. You have no sample size to back up any of your claims. You're simply being as presumptuous as the people you are accusing.

    All I see in your response is "waaaah people don't like my sense of entitlement, I love doing no work for all the rewards"

    See, anyone can be hyperbolic and it adds nothing of value. Thanks for your contribution.

    Its not rare when you see people with full 210 a week into the new patch. Not just a couple quite a few. First day I saw several FC members laughing as they linked 210 pieces they were getting lol.

    So ya not rare. Anecdotal, sure what isn't in an mmo. But if it was rare the most people would have is a few pieces at this stage if they were super lucky.

People act like you are guaranteed bis gear every time you step foot in there. It's mostly luck and a lot of time.
    Yes, I have won some. Considering it had better stats than my savage gear, it was worth the 1.5* hours of time (not two). You know how many hours people have spent in savage? I am willing to bet it's been more that diadem thus far. The risk vs reward in this game is completely off basis.

    And those people claiming not to have won anything are also purely anecdotal. People like to complain more than they like to show off their gear. For those hundreds with none, there are hundreds with a lot. You can't play off one side of an argument with another to try and enforce your argument when they're both based on anecdotes.
