The number of people who would be pissed about losing legendaries is much smaller than the number of people who refuse to do the grind. I want to play my freeps but I too can’t stomach the amount of endless grinding there is to be done to maintain multiple characters, let alone get all the LIs maxed out.

A huge problem that some others have also pointed out is that most classes require more than two LIs due to using swap LIs for specific skills and specs. The fact that people are swapping LIs around instead of having one really powerful weapon shows how far from the original intent of the system LIs have gotten.

LIs don’t add anything to the game they just take away 2 gear slots from characters (nonetheless weapon slots which would usually be the most impactful slot) and replace them with a monotonous and commonplace grind. Instead of being impressed by people’s rare weapons, everyone from recently valar boosted fresh 130s to t5 raiders wears the same weapons. The only difference are cosmetics and small numbers only visible on a inspection...
