    Unfortunately, SE adding the Manderville Earrings and the White Ravens in the Rising resulted in SE copping a massive backlash from irate 1.0 players furious that special 1.0 gear given as achievements for completing the never-to-be-repeated late 1.0 content, was being given away freely in a seasonal event (seriously, the thread here on this forum about it devolved into an absolute train wreck). It got so bad that SE probably will never again bring back old 1.0 gear in such an event, let alone that version of the Rising.

    You're probably more likely to see replicas of them added, but not the real thing I'm afraid.

    IF they are decent replicas, I wouldnt mind that too much.

    The replica earrings are already on the mog station. Funny how that landed without so much as a peep from the legacy community....

    The thing that frustrates me is that the replicas are functionally better for anyone who has the aetheryte earring - ie. no glamouring anything but Lv1 earrings all the way to Lv70. I participated in the Rising and got the Lv20 Manderville earrings as an event reward... but I have to pay for the Lv1 replicas on top of that if I actually want to use them on lower-level classes.

    If they offered a free trade-in of "real" versions for replicas, I'd be first in line - and it would probably get rid of 90% of those "White Ravens owned by people who haven't earned them" that were the source of the controversy.
