Now those very expensive armors are in deep storage and I can't use them in events. It would be nice to be able to de-mezzotint them and get my airlixir +2s back, so I can use those expensive items on the new higher level delve gear instead.
This is different to augmenting skirmish gear because you know you are basically gambling when you put loads of +2 skirmish stones into an item. With Delve armors we were not gambling, we were following a linear upgrade path which cost many millions of gil, and we did that so that we could have useful armors, not knowing that stronger armors would soon appear at a cost of just a few thousands sparks, ie. free. So it would be nice if SE made de-mezzotinting the same as dismantling simulacra, in which you can get your component items returned to you. I am not optimistic about my Mikinaak or Bokwus ever getting upgrades higher than 110, so it would be nice if I could get the airlixirs back since the whole upgrade process was a waste of money, now that lvl 110 armors are <Too weak.>
