No, the cost AND demand will decrease. CT will give out lvl80 gear. Which comes out to the same ilvl as melded gear. For much cheaper. Philo tome prices are already plummeting.

Ofcourse if it stayed as expensive noone would buy them at all, but profit will drop at any rate. Sucks cause grinding philo tomes felt like one of the few legit non-bottable ways to make money. One of the few areas where im actually more efficient than, and can compete with, the bots. Why doesnt crafting gear get a tier upgrade when casual dungeon loot does?

Lets hope that housing will put some extra demand back into our tomes.

It's highly likely that there will be furnishings that use Tomestone mats. I mean, there are already minions that use them so there is a precedent for using them for vanity stuff.

Initially, before Phase 3 beta or something, these only took 1 to 3 tome items to craft. They reasonalby saw that this was way too easy and multiplied the required mats by 9. Unfortunately, they seemed to forget that some of these crafts had required 2 or 3 time the tome items as others and after the adjustment were now costing 18 to 27 items.

Instead of admitting they made a mistake, they just let it sit a while and fixed it without an apology.
