I Think I understand what you are trying to say. On one hand people complain that gruk and daknor are too tough (which they are not), and want the weaker. I do not agree with that.
But the epic weapons, and even the priceless gear was initially designed to NOT be better than crafted gear. This makes zero sense to me. The epic stuff is harder to get, and it should be the end game gear (such as the state of Istaria's end game is, but that's another discussion). It should be better. They are making changes to the items, but its always small baby steps. Can't say I blame them in that regard, but they are still not better than crafted gear. The blood talon is much better, but still needs something extra imho. So the next step we are suggesting is some tech slots, which amon already had mentioned he was considering after this first set of changes sink in.
I wouldn't mind making all the epics tougher. Surthieum is way too easy and people solo him all the time. (make the dot non-dispellable
) Gruk and Daknor aren't too bad if you know what you are doing, but I don't think they can be solo'd. Even the remaining could probably use some toughening of some sort. Maybe more hp or more armor. I'm not saying give them (epic items) away, but they are called "Epic" so they should actually be Epic.
I also think the epic spells should have dmg doubled to quadrupled. I wouldn't care if the timer was increased to 30 min. Would rather they were actually useful.
