I am sure I am not alone when I say that many top tier crafters and gatherers became rapidly irrelevent thanks to the implementation of the Level 50 quest tools for DoH and DoL- a change that made 'everybody' lv 50 special as it were, and therefore nobody was special anymore.

My suggestion is to implement a new tier of gatherable (2 star miner/botany, legendary fish) and craftable content (3 star?), one which even the lv 50 tool people can barely hope to utilize, and requires a process to upgrade luminaries in order to make access to this content easier.

Much like the relics have relic +1, these tools in 1.0 were revered as some of the best to get, toughest to get, and therefore they should be the ones that are upgradeable, rather than the comically easy to earn guild ones.
