To spend or save poetics

[Maiandra]

Do we actually know that tomestones of soldiery and poetics will even be retired at this time? Will people who don't buy Heavensward have access to the new tiers? Maybe what exists for ARR will be left as it is for awhile.
I've been wondering by what means Ironworks gear will be available after the expansion. Maybe it will still be sold for poetics. They could easily offer a token exchange for Heavensward players that still want the old gear.

It hasn't been confirmed yet, which is why I said if they follow the previous patterns. Regardless of if they allow for exchanges or not, you still never know what they're going to add in that uses them. So capping all current seals is never a bad idea given the fact that it can give you a jump on the market if they add something desirable for crafting or what have you.
