I think more imaginative content as well as more imaginative armor and weaponry should make its way into the game. It would keep playing interesting and ease the claustrophobia I feel when I consider the fact that, past a certain level, everyone’s weapons of a certain type do the same damage.

It just sounds to me as though people who [did grind] for their Legendaries (there, I capitalized it for you) don’t want to have to get back on the hustle but also don’t want to see others who might be all right with it surpass them.

If grinding is repetitive play toward a goal I consider this game a grind. Period. But the mastery inherent in the way it’s implemented in GW2 is in the player’s freedom to choose which shape that grind will take. This is awesome. Limiting everyone’s play style for the sake of placating people with Legendaries who’re comfortable with having attained the “top top tier gear” would be a reason to stop playing.

Especially when you consider how many of them bought what they needed for the gear and, in fact, did NOT grind.

Everyone should be free to play in their style.
