Please no scenario currency wipe please. Already lost my 210 emblem Sorc staff once. Farmed all over again to get the staff once more.

IF there is going to be a gold wipe, might as well bring all characters back to L1, NO gold or silver whatsoever. And we start all over again?

From last gold wipe I remember everyone got 1 gold, so people will make tons of alts on different accounts.

If you mean decimator set, the it won't or shouldn't work. Deci gave blue fragments on live. I assume it was made to make it more difficult to acquire purple fragments, as it was possible to downgrade medallions to buy lots of Deci items.

A gold/non-equipped item wipe would be a lot easier for me to swallow if it happened in conjunction with the release of T3, or even an expanded level cap (like to 31). Even equipped gear would become largely irrelevant and most would be on a level playing field after a few days. Most players would be lost in the grind to 30/31 and have less time to dwell on the wipe.

That is, of course, until the next exploit. Though I admire the hell out of our devs, they obviously are severely outnumbered by players and are becoming moreso each day. Someone is always going to figure out a new exploit and the rest of us will continue to suffer because of it. It's something I've come to accept, but that doesn't mean it's easy to swallow.

When you do wipe everything, can you reset all influence rewards so that we can have our appearances back? :)

Didn't they give purple frags towards the end?

Also, the people saying "don't wipe my scenario weapons". Um, you can't buy those with gold...so why would they wipe those out of your inventory :>

Wipe every item and gold, but reset influance rewards. (dont forget the bank)
Otherwise those exploiters will find a way to maintain their wealth.
For examply by buying expensive stuff that can be sold later on for a fraction of the spent sum but still an "infinite" amount.

Also the devs should be aware that you might be able to sell a weird item to a merchant and buy it back after the wipe took place.

Pretty sure they can check to see how much gold each account has. Also, scenario weapons (not emblems) have nothing to do with gold/crafting exploit.

Or raise the lvl cap again and the gear becomes worthless

Also I guess I understand why people want the SC emblem wipe, because you know they were getting farmed by guys with better gear.
