Like boxing, this defeats the classic experience as far as recharging. It wasn't some wide spread/widely known issue.
However, being able to farm things like the kedge ice wand for wizards in pvp is a non-classic hit for them.
Moreso the resist system before? Conflag and ice wand would probably hit for full every single time and was game breaking with that non-classic resist system.
Now? Pretty sure you're coming up empty burning a conflag wand into a geared target.
As far as trak teeth, did we ever confirm that it was an on click effect? I believe there were some items on live that said they had charges but only consumed them thru melee'ing with them. Never saw/heard of a Trak tooth used ever in pvp on live, and I'm sure it would have been if it was as powerful as it is here... especially on RZ where there was item loot.
Another thing is the golem wand camp created another contested pvp camp. And it was a much better pvp experience camping/fighting over that than the KC zone line and melee disci gib plug fest. Even better? It'd move much more pvp to the golem wand camp and out of KC... seb is FFA flagged right now (also non-classic) and HS is too risky for most to think about as a casual team.
PS: Yes I realize RZ got into VP during Velious or so, like a bunch of other guilds. Still, I you'd think at least someone would have heard it through the rumor mill that someone lost some major item over a trak tooth burn. Maybe they were worried the quest wouldn't work if you used the charge so they left it alone.
