I would agree with your bitchign if it were a Relic/Mythic/Empy weapon but its not, its a ilvl 113 delve 1.0 weapon. so trash it and move on.
    you're funny, that means there's absolutely no reason to do half the content of the first half of this expansion, the only things relevant at this point are skirmishes for armor to upgrade and accessories. This is the first time in the history of this game that new content is obsolete while an expansion is still being put together, and this is what? Groovy and somehow a good thing? Have you lost your fucking mind? There is no reason for parts of this expansion to be obsolete just yet

    The reason why is because this expansion took more of an Abyssea like stance when it came to raising the cap, increasing our levels in increments rather than all at one time. If all of Abyssea were an expansion together and had done put the cap at 99 from the start it wouldn't have been any different because half the gear would have been in the upper 70s and lower 80s while Heroes would've been focused on 90s. Adoulin came out with Delve which was bad originally because of the 119 cap it originally gave, finally we caught up to that point with the rest of the content but originally it did start at 100~110 gear with the Coalition gear and original Delve gear. Only recently have we hit this level of 119 becoming a commonality. The reason that the other expansions didn't actually outdated their own gear is they were all basically made for level 75 cap, this expansion raised it's cap in the middle of it and created new gear at that level.

    That is one of the problems with this expansion, in order to get the best gear at the time we had to take it through the mezzoniting process, in order to get the best gear for aby you took it through the Magian trial process, one is being upgraded the other is not. I have a valid point here, they should either let us finish the upgrading process through mezonniting to take our delve 1 gear to the 119 cap or let us recycle it for plasm. It's simple, and I'm not the only one who feels this way.

When I put around 30m gil of Airlixir +2s into my Mikinaak and Bokwus armor sets, I spent that money because I thought lvl 110 was going to be useful for a long time. 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.>
