530 does exist but the point I made was that when players have worked through the second tier raid fights in 5.2 and 5.3. To earn all that shiny i500 gear. Then as soon as the third tier dropped with 5.4. All that 500 gear was replaced with 510 crafted gear before they've even entered the new raid tier. Thus rendering that 500 gear already obsolete..
