Why you felt this little comment was necessary, I've no idea.

Basically what Dukes said. Any rogue worth his salt could handle the aggro and wring some truly sick DPS from TF. Guess you weren't one of them.

I kinda wish they'd just scrap legendarys in total and replace them with normal epics that just look damned cool but are legendary in status (so the warglaives would look the same but be 100 DPS with a less sick proc). It would reduce the amount of whining about which classes get them, and let them be status symbols (see the other thread about status symbols). It would also let the drop rate be a bit higher, as at the moment it's a complete lottery - the whole Atiesh system was nice imo.

I agree. It seems counter productive to add Legandary over normal weapons because they don't bring anything positive and do bring some negative. As said if they were just an epic set that dropped from him they'd still look as cool, still be as coveted and still rock the DPS charts. They just create a lot of problems in distribution and how you add them. Also, though not a gameplay subject really, the lore tends to focus on heroes weapons if they are a melee class, but on their magic casting abilities if they are a caster class, so those guys get left in the cold a little.
