Brief history: early in the game, epic equipment actually had cool effects, like increasing your damage based on your dark resistance or whatever. At some point around 90-95 cap they stopped doing this, and all gear was just a raw damage boost. This sucked and was boring. 110 cap was the best the game's ever been because they both got rid of epic set effects and they brought back the funny cool effects epics used to have. Epics also dropped from normal dungeons instead of hell mode (which is basically a slot machine that steals your fp so you cant play the actual game). This was a golden age for about two months, because you could be infinitely creative and make any build you wanted, and you could target farm by doing all sorts of different dungeons. One of the meta sets made you fall asleep a bunch but increased your cooldown recovery while sleeping, it was all cool stuff like that, except you could also mix it with idk some random gear piece you got that gave you a big damage shockwave whenever you jumped.
So this rocked, and as I said it lasted about 2-3 months. Then Seon came. Seon got rid of all the cool effects and the target farming and all that nice stuff and you were just farming dailies / weeklies for damage lines on your gear again, and there were only like 2 builds.
