Modified rules to allow for more discussion.
In regard to people adding in the drop location of items - don't. Those are subject to change and can very easily be swapped around. When is the last time you found an Aurora Blade from the Prince?
As Madjosh said, stats will dictate cost, not the other way around. This also goes for drop locations and rates - they are related to the item's stats and relative tier, rather than having the stats always adjusted through a patch to adjust for them. The idea is to make legendary items feel more legendary: they need to be better than craftables, come from enemies you would not always expect, and add some more excitement into the game.
The Eastern Katana is still better than the Aurora Blade, just by a smaller margin. The Aurora Blade is moving up to being T4 locked to make up for class differences, leaving the Worm Bane as the equivalent for lower tiered players, but this may also be subject to change.
Those craftable weapons are still slightly better, as previously mentioned. If people want to continue selling Aurora Blades for dirt cheap, that is their loss. Buy them while you can.
Dwarf Axe and 50p? I don't understand what you are talking about at all here.
The Shield of Kings is a direct upgrade to all shields. It is locked to the shielding classes for that reason. Other legendary shields do not need to be buffed to compensate for the shield that is better than them being buffed to be better than them.
Thank you for bringing these up. They will be looked through later. However, the next item stat patch will probably focus on something other than Commandos and bring the love to other classes.
If you are posting about stats because you are mad about prices, maybe stat discussions is not the right place for you.

This update is good for the people that have some of the weapons yet have made others worth nothing like Justice,Elegant Greatsword,etc...

The boarding axe and butcher were to the best of my knowledge, nerfed to create a bigger gap between craftables and legendaries (namely the EK at the time, having the same cut as the boarding axe and the butcher having even more cut) given that these legendaries have received so much attention lately, I think it would be a good time to look at bringing some of these old weapons back up to speed. Weapons like the talhoffer, highlander claymore and those ugly crusader sword things have always been kinda "meh" in my eyes and always deserved some buffing. the justice/injustice could do with some love aswell, maybe winter could add some flair here and make them different from each other, maybe one being speedy and weak and the other being slow and powerfull, they're both bastard swords so one could be made better with 1 hand than the other i don't know? I could go on for forever about these long forgotten items, but i think I've made my point
