The audacity of the GMs regarding divergence is pretty amazing.
People spend real life money (a LOT of money in some cases) to buy those self knowledge/X number a day spell items, only for the GMs to come along and say "LOL no! You can't use those items in the new hunting area, and heck, maybe not at all in the future!"
People have a legitimate concern now: what's next?
Are the GMs going to decide one day that +50 armor with T5 ensorcel and 50 points of crit/damage padding is too good so they won't be allowed in new hunting grounds either?
