If you make the case that item recharging was "not intended" and therefore a "bug that needs to be fixed", then you could also easily make the case that the class-based XP penalties were "not intended" because they were eventually fixed, and that change should go in now, too. Good luck with that. Also, you may as well remove all bind points from the Firepots and bind those toons somewhere else, because that was never intended either based on Verant/SoE fixing it so quickly upon release of Kunark. Why pick and choose, dude?

I can understand what you are saying man. I think vender recharging quite a bit different however.
The exp penalties were absolutly intended, plenty of posts by original devs. They were changed because the face of MMO's was changing and they wanted to stay competetive with WoW etc.
I look at the firepot situation in the same way I look at manastones, pre-nerf fungi staff etc. We want to try to emulate classic in all ways possible that dont break the game or make things too overpowering. and they were quite limited. None of these do so.
What im trying to say here is that VI wanted to remove the recharging earlier but could not, based on coding issues or what have you. Im not saying they should fix it because they eventually did, Im saying it should be fixed because VI wanted to but couldnt.
I compare vendor recharging to quests giving way too much exp, or quests giving out too much plat etc etc. VI did not fix some of these for years , yet they are removed here on p99 because its game breaking.
Hundreds of people running around with basically endless amounts of abilities they shouldnt have, or should have very limited access to, is gamebreaking imo.
