Rabid can’t be crafted as an 80 exotic set. Only farmed through a scavenger hunt around the world.
Apothecary set requires 180 Karka Shells (WTF!?!?) and that isn’t counting making your weapons and accessories/rings/amulet (good luck getting the super rare flower).
We don’t have the option for Condition Damage, Toughness, Power.
Why are these so rare or absent? What is the reasoning? I know they have been requested since beta. Instead, we get even more restricted Ascended gear stat combinations.
Playing Devil’s Advocate since 1990.
