Godlikes are meant to be what people make them to be. If some people want to collect them and not get rid of them, and feel special for having them. So be it(and this coming from the person who actually made them, spending hours on them, just so only a few ever even use. Trust me I understand both sides, but there's nothing wrong with that, there's also nothing wrong with wanting them) Calling them special snowflakes because they want that feeling is dumb. (Why? Because in almost any game with an economy, a lot of people strive to get cool stuff BECAUSE it makes them feel special. Not just the 'best in slot' items)
As for this, I can't really agree with re-introducing them en-mass. Sure it sucks for others that TJ got two of them (I'll fix the 3rd one not being available. That's a bug it was registering x2 per drop), but such is RNG. I'm not sure how I feel about limiting them to 1 per person though. That might be a better compromise.
There's still 5 other godlikes to obtain from this event.

I never said they should be able to be gotten at any time though, unless you interpret my first post that way to double the rarity. Maybe in a different thread, but certainly not since the snow globe was reintroduced. I really like the way the snow globe came back actually and have no complaints about that, but nobody could have predicted that two would drop to the same exact person before they were even out for coins.

What other goal is there on FRG though? Its heavily implied that Godlikes are "end game" items, so by that logic they should be the ultimate goal. Yeah, its not written anywhere, but again its pretty heavily implied. No game really has it written in stone that "X is an end game item", that's really decided by a majority of the player population.

Calling them special snowflakes was a bad way of wording it, though to be fair I never really said there's anything wrong with that either, and I do it myself actually. But the problem arises when it cuts off other people from getting them just so someone can keep feeling special(which is why I brought up that people with originals should have them be exotic, so they can at least somewhat maintain that feeling while allowing others to have them.) Look at all the people with Last Prayers, they don't sell them to keep feeling "special"(or it at least seems that way), but due to that they're basically an extinct weapon. One comes on maybe once a month if you're lucky. Should it really go to that extreme just so people can continue to feel good about themselves?
