  the gloves have only a max roll of 1/1 anyway.

  
  
  Really? D: I could have sworn I saw ones higher than that on the housing board.
  
  
  Did you get that info from the wiki?
  I have to double check that...

  Interesting.
  That's going to keep the stuff I got at high value for quite a while anyway.
  
  There are a lot of people who are spreading rumours that the event will come back over here for another day, but from the looks of this I really doubt it.
  
  They should have done this earlier to keep player interest in the game for a while so that people can dream of hunting rare equips and everything. Getting them too easy from the game kills interest.

  But having the only other option of getting their set being an unbelievably difficult mission is even worse D:

  That's the point.
  It's actually not unbelievably difficult once everyone gets stronger.

  Its not because it is unbelievably difficult. The problem is that it is unbelievably rare.

  I got nothing good, haha.
  
  Didn't really care about the lag or most of the items (Most of them are overrated, thus overpriced either way).

  I did kind of wish I'd gotten Beijing Opera Dress . Seeing all the ones on the ground made me kinda sad. Oh, well. No second Hebona for a friend. I had to buy mine, too. Glad I did. I don't think this will make them much cheaper.

  Beijing Opera Dress is untradeable.
  I dropped mine. Got it on my main character but I didn't like it. I doubt it's on the ground anymore anyway.
  The only thing that I like about that was the mask, but it is untradeable as well.
  (The mask makes me laugh since it looks funny.)

  Are you talking about the new equipment sets such as Birnam and Hebona?
  I think time alone will solve the problem, but it will take a long time unless they make changes to the game.
  I don't even know how to price my Hebona robe here since I am one of the lucky few to get it. People have been lowballing offers that I stopped bothering to sell it.
  I'm kind of unwilling to sell considering that the robe chances are terrible in a difficult dungeon.

  Fixed.
  No wait, if people have to play smart, then it IS unbelievably difficult.

  I see people in my peaca group running difficult dungeons almost everyday.
  Difficult as in peaca middle and alby higher hardmode.

  There is also the problem of the sets aren't that good, but are still very rare. That combination makes it very hard to get people to even spend time trying to get them through missions.

  I know it's untradeable. That's why I was sad about seeing them all over the ground. I wanted to run around with one at least for a bit. I took the mask my alt character got and transferred to premium service. I guess I'll wear it with the Traditional Korean for lulz, now. D=

  That's true. The person who bought my Hebona circlet was interested in the icebolt strengthening properties, but wasn't interested in the Hebona robe. However, there are tons of people out there who just want Hebona robe because of the looks only (a.k.a. Fashionogi players).
  
  From looking through the new things and where they came from, I came to this conclusion that the new items from G13 are nice to have, but they will not make equipment from previous generations obsolete. Being hard to get is one of the factors here that make it work. There's genius in this design. Even if overpowered, there is a high cost/penalty to it.
  
  Delegation Event howevers takes all of it and screws it especially when there are too many of the good stuff circulating around.

  I'm hogging my Hebona. Sorry mages. It's not like you want the crappy roll of 1 Fire and no more anyway.
