No more gear tiers for the foreseeable future? Cool...
The items are locked behind g13. As we knew they would.
Hordes of unusable gear for the long time player that accumulated them. I have such a bad feeling about this. Especially since gear has been their bread and butter for so long. Now they are saying this will be the new thing.
Gear tiers are a mess, for sure. I’m glad that some type of change is coming to them. But that change is just ending it? I don’t see it tbh. As someone that has been playing since almost the beginning I’m sure I’ll see a message in a year or two saying how they haven’t updated a gear tier in a year or two.
As someone with a lot of accumulated useless gear I have a feeling that they will run out quick. Also highly needed gear I’m sure will be needed to make these items more effective/useable. So sure gear more readily available but we will need them twice.
A new toon will require gear 13 maybe 1-2 zetas and now their highlighted iconic item. It seems like red stars but for gear instead of shards. Maybe that’s better, idk.
As with all new things introduced we have to just wait and see. Maybe a fresh start with something new is the best way. Yet, I remain highly skeptical.
TLDR- Wait and see :)
