Suggestion for restoring lost mirror items
|
I know many of items are not available anymore due to some banning, I am thinking in general that is a pity for the standard players not be able to have access to those object that to be honest are, independently from the origin, part of the beauty of the game.
Here my proposal: New item: Mirror Reliquary Key with the chance of opening one of those mirrored items. I dunno, I though it might be fun G. Last bumped on Apr 3, 2026, 6:58:35 PM

Do you mean legacy items?

Yes

Let’s be honest, most of those items didn’t exactly come from legitimate means in the first place. If they were crafted using RMT currency, then their removal alongside the banned main account is not just justified, it is necessary. Letting those items slip back to mule accounts or re enter the game through any alternate route would completely defeat the purpose. They were never meant to exist in the first place, and bringing them back only injects illegitimate power into the economy, restarting the same cycle under a different name.
As for legitimately crafted gear, that is where it becomes less about injustice and more about consequences. High end, GG items are not something you casually hand off to strangers. At that level, trust matters, and it is typically reserved for close, reliable players, not ones already raising red flags. Losing those items is not some random misfortune, it is the result of a poor decision. In the end, this is not just about punishment, it is about maintaining integrity. The system did what it is supposed to do, removing what should not exist and preventing it from quietly returning through the back door. Any collateral damage mostly comes down to choices that could have, and realistically should have, been avoided. Hobby Gamer and Professional Software Engineer & Systems Architect from Tennessee

" You understand right that my suggestion was not to put the real item in the reliquary but a mirrored copy? There is no real items slip back in the game only copies. Regarding the legitimacy, I am not here to judge, you might be right, he might be wrong whatever, for what matter I agree with you about handing over items to other people. However I was purely talking from the players prospective that, for good or for bad, they cannot enjoy anymore those items. Maybe the existing copies are enough, i dunno. And don't even mention power-creep not at least till a 24343% fire res item still exits. |

Had ggg acted faster, players would never have had the chance to “enjoy” those items in the first place. More importantly, these weren’t just unintended items in a general sense, they were brought into existence through RMT-driven crafting, placing them entirely outside the bounds of legitimate gameplay.
If RMT had never been part of the equation, players would have seen far fewer of these items to begin with. As a result, there would be far less of that lingering fear of missing out on so called legacy pieces, since anything truly exceptional would still reside in the hands of legitimate players offering mirror services, where such items actually belong. Even if copies were to resurface through keys or any alternative distribution method, it does nothing to change the core issue. Their very creation stems from a method that should never have been possible. Because of that, these items were never meant to exist in the first place, and even now, their presence should not justify any sense of FOMO, legacy status or otherwise, as they were brought into the game through means that fundamentally invalidate their legitimacy.

I am sorry, you seams to know more about those items that what I know. But I don't know for sure if some/all of them have been created with/for RTM, and even conceding all of them were, those mirrored items has been part of the game for yeas so far, the copies being played by legitimate players sold and replayed and at this point, the copies, in my opinion are part of the system, despite the origin.
A banknote isn’t illegitimate just because it was once used in a crime. |

" VoidWhisperer42 is speaking to the origin of items; not how they were previously used. The correct analogy would seem to be "Fraudulently created bank notes will be seized by the authorities, without compensation, regardless of how those bank notes had previously been utilised and exchanged."

People are discussing here with such confidence that items were created using RMT as if they were once part of that RMT trading. Should we ban those who mention RMT? Because there is no way to know for sure about rmt without being part of it.

There were thosands items in TFT shop. If you go were and se ownership they were created by various people. So immagine you are one of those persons who legitimately created an item and GGG not only confiscated it from the user you gave it to but now uses it as reward without your consent.
My solution is announce that ban was nothing to do with rmt, lift that ban after a week and be done with the drama. |
