And everyone wishes they could trade the story-infused junk you've given them for a pair.
The solution to the IAoP problem is to effectively destroy them, not to leave them in the game and say that only some people are allowed to have them. Halving their bonus and only allowing them to apply on at-will attacks might be a good start.
....or creating other arm-slot items that are worth as much to different styles of PCs. As-is, even defensive focused characters cant find a shield or other arm slot item that is competitive to +2 damage per tier. Its not totally that IAoP are so good, its more that the other items are so AWFUL.
