*internet hug to Anony Moose* If it's any consolation I think the 'easy mode' is just the current Rivenroad fight? I'm not exactly sure. Either way, it's /pretty/ lame but it falls into the same grey-area of lore-breaking as being able to repeat missions to help your friends with them, as far as I'm concerned; the patch notes even basically say it's an OOC challenge. It doesn't look like something people will want to be spamming for gear or anything as much as "can you beat the final boss fight in 1.xx in hardmode?!? are you fierce enough!?" with a good but not overwhelming legacy item to show off as bling / proof of valour in 2.0.
