Wonder which item(s) this is refering to... The only ones I can think of are BB and Homam/Nash.. and there would be no reason to have two of any of those.

That stinks.

Yeah that is a weird stipulation to include.

The only thing I can think of is if a player has done mostly all of a relic or mythic quest, and if they happen to win the Bonanza, and they chose to win the same weapon that they upgraded, then tried to pick up the quested version it could perhaps cause some game issues for their account and/or the NPC/server? An easy fix would be the player could just drop the current weapon and claim it again at the quest point but maybe it would cause some kind of behind the scenes game issues or glitch that they could already identify and know would cause huge problems? Probably unlikely but maybe something like that?

Or maybe it's just a matter of poor translation? Sometimes that happens as well.

In any event the prizes for this contest are fantastic.

They posted the reason why on the actual app. It's to keep ppl like Pred from getting two Kikokus.

If SE didn't nerf dual-wielded relics/mythics I would have totally went for another Kikoku or Nagi! That would be teh hawt! :tounge-3::tounge-3::tounge-3::tounge-3::icecream::icecream::icecream::icecream::tounge-3::tounge-3::tounge-3::tounge-3:
