Same thing for the Arena Champions so that players could do the same. The downside for the Champions equipping items would be the mechanic of which item takes priority. From what I have read online but not confirmed on Casual Dreams, is that the weapon with the lowest delay takes precedence and the armor item with highest AC takes precedence. This could lead to a 'better' item being replaced with a 'lesser' item based on AC or delay only.
I also attempted to replace a weapon on a champion, using a lower delay than what was equipped, and he said...thanks for the item, but didnt equip it.
