Upon realizing the impending release of all legendary weapons to be added back into the game. My mind has not been able to get off this important topic, that this weapon in particular should NOT be allowed back into the game. (Without some type of nerf at the least)
"Now that's just crazy..."
As you may/may not know, this sword comes with 3 powerful boost. Blood Fire, Blade Storm Boost, and Thrust Boost. ALL +3. - The weapon's attack of 90 is completely understandable as it is a legendary. However, the weapons POWER and KILLING power is not why I am saying it is game breaking. Let me state my point very clearly before you post down your reply.
I don't hate the idea of the sword because it is "SO POWERFUL" - I absolutely despises it for one clear reason. It makes Barracuda Blade, Blade of The Abyss, and Lost Sword of El Patron have less "Spacial Value".
Barracuda Blade: It is sought out because it is the only blade that gives the player a Blade Storm Boost (+2) in the game. This powerful ability is what makes the blade so renown for being/rivaling legendary weapons. - However, HOP takes this and completely shuns it by having a +3 boost in blade storm. Diminishing the value of finding the blade.
Blade of the Abyss: Is a blade sought out for it's blood red shadow and powerful ability. It is (Was) the only legendary blade to have the skill "Bloodfire" into it. This property of the blade made it absolutely unrivaled when killing mass numbers of enemies (when looting) - However, this property once again... was stolen by HOP. As it now has the ability AND the ability of Barracuda Blade.
Lost Sword: The pure random and surprise of this blade is what makes it amazing. What I mean by this is, you can loot it without doing the Raven's Cove quest. This is the only legendary BLADE that you can loot before level 30 (and doing the quest) which makes it a fantastic and heart throbbing find for lower level pirates. However, as you might see the pattern by now... HOP once again takes this value away, since it to is a non-cursed legendary BLADE. Diminishing the value of the blade itself.
POTCO/TLOPO created each legendary and spread out such special abilities, not just threw the legendary. However, threw crude, commons, rares, famed, and legendary as well. The idea of looting for weapons is finding fun different styles of cutting down enemies (or just showing off) is what made finding each blade fun and is why players seek to find them ALL. The problem with HOP is not how "Powerful" the blade is, it's how it diminishes to many great finds when looting. I truly believe that the blade needs to either be Nerfed and if not REMOVED for TLOPO.
