Default Cultural Nerf

Over the last couple of weeks I had heard rumors that there was going to be a nerf to some of the cultural gear. Did this ever go through? Is it still something that is going to happen?

My understanding is that it should be much, much, more difficult to craft cultural armor. The recipes were supposed to require certain reagents (Blue Diamonds, Jacinths) for each cultural armor piece. This was fixed, but there is a question of whether they will do anything to the armor that currently exists in the game.

I didn't read the whole thread, so please correct me if I'm wrong.

Hmmm alright, I was led to believe that there would be a nerf to the stats. If what you say is true than it sounds like it will just rise in price.

Actually, there is a definitely possibility there will be an impact on existing sets, it just hasn't been decided yet.

Alright thanks for the info, I'll just hold out purchasing a set until a decision is made.

Personally I doubt that the devs would change the stats on or altogether remove the existing armor. It's not as though it shouldn't be there, it should just be more expensive.

When they realized wu's shouldn't be available AT ALL, they didn't remove or alter pieces that were ingame already. I'd be surprised if they changed the stuff that's already here.

They should have required a Blue Diamond for each piece of armor, right? That's pretty freaking significant.. People have been getting away with murder up to this point.

There is a possibility that they will change the existing version into a No Stat piece and add a new recipe that would require you to combine the No Stat piece with the proper gem to make the version with stats again.

I personally think this is the best solution.
