(takes about 2 weeks to bench craft a 6L with vorici). All self found. This is not an unrealistic expectation. It all depends on how long you play more than anything else.

Sure, you CAN do this theoretically, but you'll need MASSIVE amounts of playtime. I like to play alone and just chat with guild, so I like this new feature but for my limited ingame-time, I just can progress at some point and usually take worn stuff that guildies don't need anymore ;)

An offlineversion could provide different difficulty settings to make things easier without cheating.

One problem is my favourite playing style: melee
Not cyclone or wannabe-melee-like skills or indirect damage... just hitting stuff with a sword. It's hard to even beat "normal"

No party allowed = FANTASTIC IDEA.
No trade allowed = unplayable idea.

It's a game about find and equip more and more powerfull items. If you can't trade - then 99.999% of items you will found will be useless. Even with high and good rolls them would be not rewarding for a player. No rewards = no sence in game.

So it would be fantastic if you will remove party abuses from the game, and don't break economy same time.

You know, props to you GGG for supporting a distinctive play style that is genuinely hard and radically changes the pace of the game. This should go a long way to quell all those people whining that the game is too easy for them, now all you have to say to them is "If its easy, go play SSF!". I want to emphacise that I am impressed with this move, but I genuinely can't feel good about it. The simple reason being that I can't imagine that the actual effort in establishing the groundwork to support this is trivial and the end result is what amounts to a verified means to display your e-peen. I can't feel good about this when there are skills, items and other portions of the game that need work and have needed work for years from the forum threads I find that probably overall require individually far less work than this system, but remain buried because they do not draw in the kind of publicity that streams playing SSF do.
