I think it's so funny people think they're overpowered. Stats and item properties are all caped at a particular level. Nothing can exceed this. Faction items allow you to hit the caps a little easier. You can do the exact Sam thing and reach the same levels with non facion gear.... It's just harder, which makes me wonder why on earth anyone wouldn't want to use the faction gear... Now if faction gear allowed you to exceed h caps then yes, by all means they are overpowered. However, they don't and you all. Have a baseless, silly argument against them.
Just take another look at Dantes suit he posted earlier... Non faction and just as good as a faction suit.
