RaXZerGamingZ -> simple way for rare's and ultra rare's to come back (4/19/2016 12:57:34)

this is very simply ( in my example i will use azrael bane sword )

so basically what there should be done is that the weapon should be "cloned" the "clone" will have a diffirent ID and so the name will be changed to : clone of Azraels Bane. these should be always available BUT to make it fair as to owning the original IS better , the clone's will not have the core that the original comes with , maybe for frostbane because it has a useless core on it , the remaining core slot can be filled with "useless" that doesnt do anything or something like that that gives the original an advantage

Not all rare/ultra rare weapons contain cores. Unless your suggestion only talks about rares/utlrares with cores.

Sometimes they give (or used to give) clones of ultra rare items/achievements to some of the mods (they started doing this a few years ago, way too late if you ask me). Just a fun fact.

Now to get on topic. Rare items will NEVER return in any form. I could go find you quotes, I could explain why I dislike this idea (and other rare item holders would too), but I just don't feel like wasting my time.

Oh your reply reminded me that I wanted to reply to charfade when she said this:

Just going to add dev team has no interest in bringing back any rare items.

That being said we have given away personal items "Titans and NW Alpha Gear" for the winter gift giving season. We remove the items from our inventory to give to the players not creating any new entries in the database. This practice is so we can offer high rewards to exceptional players who earned them by playing well and have been active in the EpicDuel community.

I forgot to reply about the matter and went off topic. But I'm kinda curious why devs had to give up their own "gear" while mods can get them quite easily. A little clarification would be great.

The replica achievements were also pretty short lived, I'm not entirely sure why they were removed but it's no longer a thing.

I don't know what the official rare item policy is for staff, but I don't think rare/ultra rare items are given anymore. Personally, I think it's disrespectful to the players that actually earned the gear legitimately, so I've never asked for any item that you can no longer get. The new PR liaison might have a more definitive answer for you when he/she is chosen.

Back in beta, there were cases (or at least one case), where a new moderator would go from being a non-founder to a founder with all the rares over night. If you ask me, the fact that devs gave up their own gear is proof that rare items are no longer given to anyone.

White Tiger already mentioned replica achievements ("Founder Replica", "Frysteland War General Replica", ...). I'm pretty sure that devs realized what they were doing somewhere around the time those replicas were released and stopped giving rare items to volunteer staff after that.

Off topic:
I wonder what they will do for next years gift giving. Will they steal BigTunas alpha gear or try to sneak Alpha gear into Chars inventory? lol



Lord Machaar -> RE: simple way for rare's and ultra rare's to come back (4/19/2016 17:06:10)

Or it could be this scenario, rare/ultra-rare items are still given, but why devs chose to give their own alpha gears, just give it a little bit of "uniqueness", giving regular alpha items would be great, but adding "Titan's" or "NW's" alpha gear would encourage more players to spend more $$. But yeah that's just my own interpretation what char said. Would be great if we get a clarification.

Sometimes we can't get what we want.

Rares coming back is one of these times.

Lol ohhh so now it's disrespectful....Learning more and more about the people of ED as I sit back and read these comments. Very intriguing
