Candle Ghost set, Pomic soldier set, Queen Bibi set are desirable IM because of it's permanent bonus stat; drop chance 20%, exp rate 5% (it's suppose to re-release in long period).. in return, they release Robo set, Wizard set;temporary bonus stat.
I do agree that in-game gears must categorized as: super rare, rare, normal to maintain it's desire, prestige, players loyality (veteran-newbies).
What do u think if Priest clothes, all old rare IM/Event item re-released; give all players access to have the same item.
All player wear same Priest clothes as example.. then it has no more value. no more proud to wear it.
first of all, i fully understand in the rare item argument...
however we are talking about 2 different things here. one that is supposed to be released again vs something that is confirmed will not be released again. both are confirmed by GM.
