I used to run IL runs before the rule changes and I just dunno if event items should be allowed in runs. I think since it's pretty hard to get them and lots of players I know try to hack them to their accounts just think those items should not be allowed.
If I recognize a poor event clone I will reject the runs, but I don't see why would we ban any legit items.
I'm just thinking about how tons of players don't have these event weapons or items and those running the game with them may have an advantage since all can 1 shot almost everything in the game.
I agree that new players or players that haven't been participating in events will have much harder access to legit event items but they can still get those. I don't however agree with "can 1 shot almost everything". That simply isn't true at all. Yes, they usually have good stats or provide unique utility, but they're not overpowered and I don't like the idea of banning them.
True, I mean l can 1 shot with eagle stance with my barbarian so I mean a guess but like range dps is kinda destroyed by the event items in terms of dmg numbers compared to ones you can obtain in game easily. Maybe have it be a variable or something instead of outright banning them?
