What really hurts is that the hammer, even as a 100% clean slate, could potentially cancel out some of the benefits of Maker. Maker is supposed to allow poorer folk to make some decent gear that can actually compete with things like Facestompers, while also giving the rich a chance to upgrade their gear further. It's fun, allows a lot of customization and requires item collecting and planning. We've been waiting for it forever. And when we finally get it, along comes Vicious's hammer. Now people with a shitload of NX get a chance to drastically upgrade their gear, while others get nothing. Upgrading my 13 att SCG to a 15 att SCG (probably the only thing I'd do with it) alone would make a huge difference in value, something that a newer or poorer player couldn't make use of at all.
