- If we homogenize redeye, you are widening a gear gap with pre-bis 2h/snb tanks (this already happened)
- Why Beastlord (almost the same level and type class of a gear as red-eye, and this was stated as a reason for homegenisation of gear) is missing gloves and boots but has cape?
We have decided to swap out the Redeye Cloak for a Redeye Belt to be in line with the other armor sets in this tier bracket.
- Why everything has to boil down to looking the same?
Set's dont have to be the same and team has showed it with many examples like newly added jewel + pocket set or jewels set. The T1 hunter set that was added a while ago is not the same as the other T1 sets allowing mixing and the same mixing was allowed with the red-eye cape.
The more and more team homogenizes everything the more and more everything will look the same and become boring.
My humble suggestion is to either revert the change or bring back the red-eye cloak into the set but give us a different way of gaining it, even if it is hidden behind a type of 15 part quest where you have to kill X of certain mob but the catch is that you have to run it 2 times to get it and then you have to kill something that is hidden in a random nook where you usally dont go etc. The cape was a big help to newer players to gain enough stats to close the stat gap between BiS players and new fresh people. People making decisions about gear also should keep in mind that diversity leads to more choices and in the end in a more diverse meta with people trying different mixes and searching for what works best for them.
