Everyone was abusing it trying to do the best pomegranate in town, like downing PB, which never occurred. We've now killed PB a good couple of weeks into the potential patch. That should tell you how OP'd and poorly done the system is.
I don't see how that shows the system is OP--Pink Bean has only been killed ONCE in GMS by a group of top-tier players who not only had gear and stuff beyond what normal people would dream of but had--to my knowledge--attempted PB before potential system and had actually gotten reasonably close to killing it--potential just gave them that last boost. You're acting as if any joe can just magically get +30% dammage +9% mainstat everything and waltz on over to PB/HT/CHT/CZak and down them in like 20 minutes and that's not the case. The potential system only further shows that the people with the most money win. How many people honestly are going to get that much godly gear, no, are going to have the money and NX to get all that gear from the constant scrollings and cubings and risking things with potential and enhance scrolls?
I'm pretty sure most of the vids we've seen of people doing ridic damage post-BB are high-leveled characters with tons of awesome potential gear. What about all the average players we don't see? I agree that the PD/MDrate should be there, but what's the point of making everything harder and harder for the average player just so the best of the best won't be as "broken"? Now if people with average funding start like soloing zak at 125 in under an hour then I'll concede it's broken beyond belief but c'mon.
