You and I are so close to fully agreeing. Legacy is cool. The only problem, and I do mean only, is that the Bestial Regalia is currently a best in slot item for mixed fighter builds.
For a few of the thrall options you listed there, those thralls were nerfed after being unavailable to everybody. Now they’re more or less just a trophy, and I think that’s okay.
I guess they might do this with the Bestial Regalia armor as well. I would rather this armor not be nerfed, but if it is not, it seems unfair for a new player to come into a server at an actual gameplay disadvantage of any kind that cannot be made up. Exclusive looks/thralls and gear are fine and I even encourage that. I draw the line at gameplay advantages. There’s plenty of balance issues already, so you might argue it fits right in, but I’d rather mitigate further derailing, you know?
