[Wildy poll 6] Nex sets

This isn't just about the wilderness, but also a general change to how Nex sets work.

Right now, killing someone with a Torva/Virtus/Pernix set offers almost no rewards, just a bit of PkHonor points, much to the frustration of many players.
One idea to fix that issue would be to make it actually drop the item on death, but make it degrade to 0, meaning you cannot wear it until repaired. You'd be able to trade it (to anyone, since nobody can use it anyway) or repair it, but you can only repair it if you have completed the Nex quest (once repaired, it can only be sold to other players who have unlocked trade rights and completed the Nex quest).

Secondly, I'd like to suggest to make the Nex sets degrade in combat (as they're supposed to), requiring them to be repaired when fully degraded before you can wear them. A piece would last in combat for a total of 10 hours. The exact price of repairing a Nex set item will be decided later on, if this suggestion gets approved.

What pricing did you have in mind to fix the nex sets to full?

Without any nex items leaving the eco, Would it be possible to destroy nex items in some way to provide charges. some virtus and zaryte bows sell for under 1b and it would be cool to see some prices rise due to higher demands for the items.

Sure, but they need to be restored to the previous HP boost instead of how it is currently with the 10% acc bonus.

Maybe just hp boost for unskilled players so no one can just camp 142 hp. But yes we need to hp boost back

Depends. How much will it cost to repair them?

The only reason I use nex sets in pvp is because they don't degrade at the moment unlike pkp equipment with like the same stats, I didn't know that they 'should'.

Anyway they should drop in degraded form yes, cash or item sink to fix I don't mind if it isn't too much.

Hp boost only in 20+ wild should be a good compromise, no invincible raggers in edge and still have hp boost nex sets.
If you get piled by a team in 20+ wildy you sure aren't invincible anymore unlike 1v1, but if it goes combined with divine/ely removal from wild I wouldn't mind it in edge too since you're not invincible then either.

Most definitely.

Allow them to drop and degrade to 0, could cost 500m to repair each part, seeing as that's more than fair.

Return the hp boost as well.
