Your KoS raid gear helps you doing EoF raids, there is in fact someone stating that it may even be needed to start raiding EoF and many guilds still do raid KoS.
Of course when you raise the level cap the previous gear will fade away as you level up, but I seriously doubt people replaced KoS raid gear with handcrafted or treasured drops in EoF.
These games are a constant "upgrade what you have" race, how would you handle an item-centric game then? I'm curious. |
You don't get it. Raid gear should be upgraded by raid mobs on the next tier - not some fuckin 4 man group named mob that anyone can camp. If you want that "uber gear" - raid the tier before and get it if you think you need the extra stats.
In this case - Items have lvls on them. A lvl 69 item "Fabled" / raid will be artificially shit compared to a lvl 75 Legenary/TS item. Personally, who cares if a raider doesnt get upgrades from 71-80 while exping in groups... they could give a shit as they plow ass thru 10 lvls and go for what they like - Raid content.
