Not disagreeing. It is possible. They made a mess of CT/Coil/Mythology gear, and making CT2 drops rarer and more valuable than Soldiery gear would be a step in the right direction.


But at the same time, I find it hard to believe SE will condemn their casual fan base into wearing sub-par gear than other types of players.

The entire point of Mythology was to allow casual players to remain relevant in the game without having to do coil.

Now they're turning around and making Coil 2 gear superior to Soldiery (new tomes) gear, which will already upset the casuals. Making CT drop gear that is superior to soldiery gear will probably make them flip their top. Especially since in 2.25 or 2.3 they are apparently allowing 24 man pre-made alliances. Meaning the rise of FC large man content, and the exclusion of the weaker more casual players.

So in effect, making CT2 gear superior to soldiery gear benefits the less casual of us, who are already in groups and farming t1-t5.
We will have access to soldiery, coil, extremes as well as CT2 gear while casuals will most likely only be able to access soldiery regularly and CT2 sometimes (look at DF Extremes as a case example of how good casuals do in DF lol)

In short, I'm all for it. Let the gap between whiners and people who are willing to work increase. Filthy casuals had it coming.
