What's the verdict guys @Kyronix @Bleak?

Once during a meet & greet, we were told these things (Shadowguard Artifacts) would be Repairable, PoF-able, but not Alter-able... Then shortly thereafter we were told "We don't want items to last forever".

We were also told during a Meet & Greet, that Jewelry will remain non-PoF-able. I want to bring this up because perhaps you dont realize how rare "Clean" jewelry is.

There's gotta be a reason to hunt for "Clean" items, particularly Legendaries, Everything except Jewelry is PoF-able. it really does not make sense that jewelry would be any different than Armor or Weapons.

A word about why the Gargoyle versions of these items do not seem to be dropping would be pretty nice as well.
The verdict is the same as when we addressed this in a recent Meet & Greet. There needs to be a balance between items lasting forever and the cycling out of items to drive the economic wheel. We'll evaluate the viability of expanding the use of powder of fortification with this in mind.
