So this along with imperial gear more than likely won't exist. People only suggested primal weapons would be gone because you know, everything SE has said regarding these has always been up in the air. "Achievements will be gone for (Primals)", "They'll become free company summons (hence: reward for beating them now)", "the balance won't be the same as 1.0s" and so on. Specifically rewards relating to 7th Umbral Era incoming won't be obtainable and Darnus and the current imperial raids are pretty much that entire plot point.

Primals are even sprinkled in there.
Yeah I think the White Ravens (item) is at threat by the statement that all 7th Umbra related events (obviously hard mode Raven is) will no longer available in 2.0.

However its not "impossible" the items to continue through, and specially Raven himself I think. I believe it quite within SE norm to bring him back. Specially since the Omega creature concept art seriously looks like a Hogo science experiment of White Raven.
