All for a glow?

That you'll be able to two button craft in the next expansion if the glow glamour is that important to you?

IMHO the resplendent tools were a waste of developer time. They should have done the next step of the crafter relic and made them better than pentemelded HQ Asthete's.
The Resplendent tools aren't intended to be best crafting tools. They're intended to be bragging rights for hardcore crafters so they can prove how hardcore they are, which is something many were asking for.

I doubt very much that SE is going to create rewards that will give a tiny group of players a serious market advantage over the rest of the community considering the changes they've made to crafting/gathering this expansion. If the Resplendent tools don't appeal, then the community needs to offer other suggestions.
