Just curious if there has been any talk in the past of the ability to deconstruct certain items that have been created in the magic box.. eg, Blue Diamond armor. Possibly limited to a class like a chanter, chance of failure consumes the item? Haven't really thought through possible negative ramifications, just curious what you guys thought. A positive would be to retain some of the component investment value rolled into creating something that has lost it's overall value to a change in game dynamic (ROA releveling). Not even sure I have seen a reverse engineering functionality in a game.

Honestly, I think one should be able to simply "sell" it back for the cost of the ore. As leveling is now a one time deal and speed leveling alts isn't a problem, the armor does see little use now.

What can we do with Diamond armor, to give people a reason to make it or wear it?

There needs to be a specific purpose for wearing the Armour.  This is good example:

xp bonus worn effect..

What about a "Blue Diamond" zone that can only be entered while wearing the armour.  The zone could have bonus XP beyond PoFire and other desirable items for players (eg. GLGs, Charms, Aug Mats, etc).

Worn XP bonus or flag for a zone with enhanced XP = awesome ideas, and in line with the spirit of the original purpose of the armor.

Love it.

I would say the xp bonus effect is fitting for the original intent of the armor. A new "blue diamond only" zone with loot and stuff is a bit much. Were getting T7 and ToFS soon anyways right? =)

Thanks guys, the real question driving my original post was what can we do with this stuff. Simply frustrated when I see the banked set that I've got time and cash in, that has lost it's purpose. I've never played WoW, so I've not seen the effect of scrap/disassembling mechanic in a game.

100% agree. awesome ideas.. xp enhancement/exclusive zone would retain the spirit of the armor and maintain interest and value in the set.
