It's just like any other game, granted it is like an expansion but I don't buy a new call of duty game or whatever and expect to keep my level and prestige from the year before. I'm looking forward to saying goodbye to my fatebringer, timepiece, hezen vengeance and all my gear and collecting new things. It used to be exciting to get a piece of raid gear, now I just check to see if it's looks better than what I have now since I found gear that maxes out my intellect/discipline. It's time to let go man.
