    One thing that needs to be remembered is that this is the first patch of the expansion cycle. Currently everyone's top level is getting their iconic AF2 sets. Come 3.2, the top level should return to shared sets until 4.0 comes out.

    In 3.2 we are likely to see Blue Scripts phased out, Red Scripts being uncapped and rewarded for what was once Blue Script turn ins, and a new color of script be introduced that will be used to purchase the new omni-set.

    Well, I guess we'll see, but while this makes total sense for combat classes, it's a bit weirder for crafter/gatherers. Generally, the same duties don't give too many more tomestones, it's that the new duties give as much of the new ones as the old ones gave of the old ones. And the daily bonuses switch over to the new tomestones, starting low, going up, and then swapping to the next one after that at a lower value, and then going back up again. If the crafter or gatherer daily bonuses switched from Blue Scrips to Red Scrips, I'm not sure I'd notice. You know, with the whole "no daily bonus" thing we have going on...

    So, for crafted items that gave blue to suddenly give as much red as they gave blue, that would be weird, and not in line with what's being done for combat classes. If red scrips vanished, the level 56 items would probably give 1 red scrip instead of 17 blue.

    Prices are likely to also change. The Master III recipe books and the Adept's Set will likely get cheaper with the AF2s staying the same price until 3.4 when a new script is added and Red scripts are phased out.
