Seems to me the people that don't have the trophies are more hung up about those trophies than the people that actually have them.

Like the dude that posted in this thread 42 times - you're still #1 if you're reading this - being a condescending tool, using whatever strawman suited his fancy to downplay concerns. Just so he could tell people to get over themselves.

I'm not saying you, BillyKaplan, are like him. I'm just making an observation about the people this thread has attracted.

Especially when everyone knows the weapons will be redundant comes as early as, what, next week with 4.4? So the only good thing these trophies are good for is glamour and bragging rights
FTFY

And welcome to the entire game. Nothing matters except glamour, and only until they decide to devalue the work necessary to obtain said glamour. Either through giving it away to everyone directly or making it easily cheeseable with undersized parties.

I'd let you argue that the White Raven earrings probably don't have that, but then I'll repeat the point these are unknown trophies to most of the playerbase so bragging rights feel a bit meh.
So if trophies aren't super duper visible they're just meh and unknown (because they're rare/too small to quickly identify) and don't mean anything. But if they are super duper visible, and you use them, you're just bragging.

Is that what you're saying? 'Cause that's what it looks like you're saying.

And in either event Square took those trophies (White Ravens) away anyway. Soo... yeah. There's the point of Amiral's post: He's having a hell of a time finding people that want to drop 100 hours/750+ pulls/whatever asinine metric of effort into content when they can't be even remotely assured that time and effort will be respected. Will be worth anything.
