Transitioning from i130 to i140+

Try replacing your Zeta and tell me how that felt.

Yep, got replaced with a green dungeon drop. I stared at the item comparison in mild disbelief for a few moments, recalled that they'd said that our old gear would be viable till about level 55, then shrugged and equipped the new weapon.

Didn't feel strange at all. But then this isn't my first MMO.

I've been gaming online since 1995. It still felt weird to replace raid gear with normal craftable gear.

But then presumably you've been doing that this whole time. Because that's literally always how expansions work in vertical games.

I have been. That doesn't stop it from feeling weird every time, though. xD

You get used to swapping raid gear for stronger raid gear and suddenly that crap from the vendor in town is like gold compared to the gear you fought hard and farmed for. Never fails to make me chuckle a bit when I think about it.
