Cryptic makes the game more about the equipment you have rather than the personal skills, tactics, etc... While you can still compete with older equipment due to your skills and tactics being more advanced than your opponent's, you are at a disadvantage when your opponent reaches/meets your level of tactics and skills, then their newer equipment will be the advantage... uggh.. nothing I hate more in this game than having to go get the newest tweaked power, console, or whatever. The STF sets have literally ****ed me off due to all of the grinding necessary.. I'd rather buy them in the cstore than spend one more moment doing an STF. Cryptic's new motto should be "we code for quantity" due to the thousands of STF grinds I have completed and I am 1 piece away from having both complete sets!... then.. oh yeah.. on to the other toon. My god, Cryptic!!!!!!
