G17 Armor Set 3rd cast

So why is that this set of armor also looses 100 strength. The current r9 3rd cast is still the strongest set. Yes i know you still have to re roll your stats on armors. But you will never gain the 100 strength that you lost. As you start making the armors, you are becoming weaker. Is there a explanation for this?

    100 Str in comparison to the amount of atk lvl, spirit,def lvls is nothing, and if you can afford a g17r3 set, i'm sure you can afford to reroll it and get decents amount of p.atack on all pieces. In the end you'll lose about 4k p.atack but with more than 40 atk lvl/def lvl, 500+ spirit in exchange, Seems pretty good to me, not to mention the g17 procs as well, but that's a perk of it.

    Gotta keep in mind that our R9 that gives 100 str/dex/mag is pwi exclusive gear, G17 gear is supposed to be nothing but upgrade, but for us its only really worth to get a g17r3 for an decent amount of stats upgrade, g17r2 is debatable for some classes with channeling and aps but overall, our r9 still does the job just fine, not to mention most people already have maxed shards on their r9, so its either g17r3 or gear everything else again, gg.

    As mentioned already, our R9.3 is exclusive to our version. If we take a look at our R9.4 gear, that is exactly what PWCN have as their r9.3 gear. If you look at that bonus and stats for that gear, you'll see that G17.3 is a direct upgrade.
    When the developers made G17 armor set bonus, I am sure they didn't have our version in mind - Honestly I wouldnt be surprised if they are unaware of what our R9.3 bonus even is.

    This made G17 armor less appealing to our player base when we first got it, but I think as people saw the soul stats they became slowly more interested.

    Now, if only they added our R9.3 bonus set in the warsoul gem, Im sure that would spark interest to a lot of people.
