Let us Dye Normal Raid gear

[Edax]

Once upon a time there was no normal version of the 8 man raid. People complained that they couldn't see the story so they added normal raids in HW with an undyeable set of lower ilvl gear and sometimes minion and furniture materials to incentivize people to do it more than once.

Now we want the dyeable set, too!



Well, you wouldn't get very far with an attitude like that which means you wouldn't get it anyway while it was current. After you can unsync it you can go get it then. It's really just a timed exclusive. So it isn't like you are barred forever from ever getting it, you just gotta wait just like how you can faceroll some of the EX primal mounts and older savage raids now. If you don't want to wait, do the content.

As I'm pointing out, nearly all of the playerbase wants their armor to be dyeable because it is so universal. The savage playerbase does not encompass all of the playerbase that wants their gear dyeable. By gating such a universe thing such as dyeing behind Savage, you create a subsection of the playerbase who is interested in one, but not the other. This is not a good way make an incentive, as it will draw in the wrong kind of players in Savage.

And like I said, it's not forever locked to the "raiders". It gets nerfed so everyone can get it eventually including people who don't care for challenge and want glamour items. The only PvE exception is Ultimate but those weapons are supposed to be trophies and who knows they might change their minds on it later anyway. If you want it when it's new, you do the content.

I don't think SE cares if it's a good incentive, just that it is one. It might get some people to try it if they want the stuff. Guess why they keep putting stuff in PvP and shoving it down our throats?
