As a person who legitimately (yes, I did not bot because I abhor that kind of behavior) grinded my way to get all the luminaries (minus FSH) in 1.0, I am not angry with how SE handled them stat-wise for ARR. No one is forced to get them. I had a goal and I went for it and was aware of what I was getting myself into at the time. However, if SE decides to do something about it, I won't complain. :P

P.S. All my friends who knew and still know me from 1.0 will tell you I crafted a lot. Seriously. lol
