    Title says it all. With the increasing availability of epic dupes for p2w players, it's becoming near impossible to compete with rares in higher leagues. I think it's fair to allow 4th perk on rares on tier 5 or level 50 to be "extra fair". Some of you might agree. Some of you might feel cheated on your epic investments. So I'm making this poll to see where the community stands on this matter.

    Also added extra choice for anyone who will quit if this is implemented.

    It would be handy, since I can't really compete going past 3.2k infamy. But it would ruin some of the value of higher caliber items. It's a really difficult decision.

    While I already have some tier 4 and 5 epics with 4th perk, I still 100 % support the idea of max rares getting it too. There is already quite a big difference in item stats between epic and rare, and currently the 4th perk slot makes that gap unnecessarily big. Remember you still need to unlock lvl 28 crew talents to get any rares to tier 5 so it will only be available to high level players anyway, who are likely to match with tier 4 and 5 epics all the time. Having max rares with 4th slot would make things more balanced in these situations. Still, it wouldn't devalue the epics because they will always have higher base stats.

    If so, petition to add 5th perk on tier 3 leg
    And give us leg perk that is just only allowed to legendary item.

    I don't think it will devalue epics as much since tier 5 talent is way harder to unlock and upgrade requires 2 copies. Been training my crew non stop since May and I still only have 1 tier 5 talent. Rares copies might be easier to obtain but obtaining talents take months.

    Sure, we don't mind you getting 10 perks on your tier 6 legendary. You'll be here for a long time. We're simply asking for proper balance while this game still has a year or two left.

    Even with 4 perks, a rare item lvl 50 would be, in general, equivalent to an epic item lvl 34. So why not?

    I believe the point here is to make things more balanced, not give whales an even bigger advantage..

    Even better, how about an entire new set of weaponry called 'Godly' weapons with 8 perk slots that cost straight up $3,500 per chest containing 1 random Goldy weapon piece and a guaranteed leg weapon.

    I have to pick no. As a F2P player I like the ongoing challenge of finding my first tier 4 epic to finally have the privilege of adding a 4th perk slot (which I have yet to find). If this happened I'd prob be scrapping all my epics and just upgrading the same item in a rare version. Neat idea though!

    Epics will still be stronger than rares. Just not much stronger due to a perk.

    Like the idea, but should it unlock at t5 or at the actual level 50 rare?

    I support this idea.

    But since it mostly helps f2p.
    I think they should also stop legendaries only having 3 slots.

    Lets bring 4 perks slots for everything.

    Win win

    Legendary items already unlock a 4th slot at T3, Epics at T4.
    Rares at T5 makes sense to me, even makes a pretty pattern.
