Augged class gear shouldn't be tied to an Extreme trial

Locking the ability to choose what color we want something to be behind anything is just silly, whatever gear it is.

Not sure I agree with this, personally! For example, having undyed gear in normal raids and offering nice dyeable versions in savage is something I personally enjoy. I don't think there's anything wrong with offering better rewards for people who do the harder content.

Wouldn't a mount or a minion or completely unique gear be better? They can put a little more creativity in rewards for harder content than something that should be a basic feature of the game.

Then you will just have people complaining about having unique gear being locked behind said content.

Sadly, yes. You can already get nearly all the rewards from raids from normal. The only true reward is dyable body pieces (PLEASE LET US DYE ACCESSORIES, SE. I AM BEGGING!!), a mount from one wing, and getting those few extra stats to BiS, which is more of a luxury than anything since tome gear is pretty competitive and makes up a lot of that BiS most of the time.

I am going to agree with TaleaRistan in the end with the sentiment that I would much rather see completely different rewards come out of savage. The whole reason I branched into Heroic and Mythic in WoW was because the gear was extra shiny. In my ideal world, all tiers would drop dyable gear. Normal would be the plain version and Savage would have some UNF to the design. This would also give us more pieces to play with >>

Let them complain.

I really really really REALLY want the Alte Roite mount. But I've never set foot in Savage. So sucks for me, but it's something I won't get. So there are already other unique rewards. I think it's perfectly fine if Savage gives unique designs for gear.

I'd rather keep things the way they are. If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

FWIW I support the request for those that want this. For me the AF sets are pretty useless due to job locking and the significant limitations of the glamour system. The only time I use them is if I need the ilvl, don't have access to tomestone gear, and there's no reasonably priced crafted gear. On top of that I simply don't have the storage space if I open all the containers.

It is broke, because instead of a real reward that's worth the effort, they paste in something that should be a basic feature of the game.

It's a little off topic but, I did an evenings farm of O4S unsynched with FC members and quite easily got 10 of us the Alte Roite mount with only a couple of wipes. Did the same for O8S too and that wasn't too bad either. There are guides for doing these fights unsynched at 80 and it's very easy with current gear (most of us where around i510 at the time). Doubt it'd be much harder through PF. Just thought I'd let you know the danger noodle mount is not necessarily out of your reach.

On topic, I do wish they'd just let us dye AF gear from the start. I understand with the normal/savage divide for raids but they've never been able to find a way of getting it for the job-specific sets that didn't get a bunch of complaints. In HW, making it time gear made it harder to gear multiple jobs, SB ones required lots of Eureka grind which is a big complaint because of Eureka in general, and then in ShB we have the OP's complaint which I've heard a lot.

It'd be nice if they just let us dye AF gear right away or at the very least, made it something like the ARR one (though maybe allow any DoH to make the upgrade item this time) as that wasn't too bad and with crafting being more accessible now, it'll probably not get quite so expensive.
