Why bother upgrading lore?

[Slappah]

That's what I mean. The stuff you use to upgrade is from savage, which is why I kinda find Lore pointless. though now that the I lvl for the gear is cleared up I can kinda see having both for stat's sake.

Itemization.

Some lore pieces might have better stats for your particular job and/or setup/build than its midan equivalent.

Also not every one does savage, so getting lore and eventually upgrading it in the "catch up patch" whatever patch that may be is their only option
