Fair enough I guess. I personally don't think God Items make much of a difference EXCEPT for brewing, to be honest. Think about it - generally the God Item people "fear" the most in terms of unbalancing WoE/PvP is Megingjard because they see "+40 STR" and lose their **** over it. It's not a big deal, though, really. I tanked EDP SB before a Meg, and I tank it now (on Albus) too.
Difference between 120 STR and 160 str is approximately 152 ATK. Without factoring EVERYTHING in we could estimate that a Meg user with an Incantation Infiltrator would increase their damage (EDP SB) by ABOUT 8k by wearing the Meg... Of course, that doesn't take into account the 40% WoE skill reduction, the 30-50% Demi Human reduction and the potential elemental reduction... even with a char wearing only a thara shield that likely reduces that increase to 3k. Not a game-breaking change considering you give up (even for a SinX) about 15% of your carry capacity to use it.
Mjolnir is useful for many things, but in a WoE this small instant-cast devo is not a big deal. Instant cast AD is nice, I guess, if you have the build / supporting gear for it - but it generally leaves you more squishy than your non-instant cast counterparts (a trade off). I actually think God Items are fairly balanced compared to some of the other garbage that has been added over time (referencing Gravity here, not trying to insult heRO).
That's just my take on God Items.
