Verity to Creation 1:4 ratio is nonsense

[Sida]

The creation prices were halved and it even was in the patch notes turns out I remembered that wrong, what was listed was the price reduced for crafter/gather gear. I'll look the proper quite when I get home. All said, regarding the current matter. The patchnotes say that verify can't be used to purchase items anymore. The one thing that don't spell out is that tome gear is "tied" to the tome type they were originally purchased with. If verity can't be used to buy gear, it implies that Verity gear can't be bought with any tome currency.

That said, you are left with the verity like money from a trip to a country you're not going to visit anymore. That you get anything from it is a bonus, and a good bump towards getting the next tier gear, apart from the amount of that does tomes you already have. Which gets price deduction too so you actually only loose about half of the verity amount you had in buying power.
