OMG smedy, you're so right! Item recharging is going to completely ruin the game. We have no evidence that it's ruined the game on Live, Beta, Blue99, or any other server that's ever existed where item recharging actually worked correctly, but we should trust your prediction that item recharging will ruin the server, and thus we should change things to not be classic in advance before actually seeing first hand if anything is adversely affected by a mechanic that was in for the entire duration of the classic period.
PS: what rechargeable item gives Pallies the ability to LoH six times? And what item gives Wizards the ability to do 4000 damage in a second?

Blue99: I know there was a costum nerf made to some items cause some bluebies were spam using it to kill dragon.

Live: The game was new, the first 2 years which is considered the classic period only about 20% of the entire population found out about the good items and recharging, thus resulting in "not a big deal" considering were all pretty much eq experts here (besides you of course) we know that all these items abused will fuck up pvp.

Red99Beta: Well there are already people spamming golem wands making all buff classes useless, since no one gives a shit on beta no one cares to farm these items (the harder ones). Neither has anyone raided fear so the clicky sticks for wizards have not been abused obviously.

Paladins have soulfire, first part of the paladin epic, 5 charges complete heal, instant cast.
Wizards get wand of conflaguration 5 charges instant cast conflaguration (i think)
There are also other game breaking items with many charges that are incredible easy to attain, such as the snare staff from warrens, drops from a lvl 10 mob gives you 10 charges instant cast darkness.
Let's face it, no one wants recharging pvp, it simply just doesn't require any skill to spam a button with instant cast items, and the only reason it "turned out okey" on live was because no one knew about these items.
