How Do Extreme Primal Weapons Affect Gearing?

[horaiyo]

I love having ex weapons in the game. Prior to 2.1 I was pretty reluctant to play my alt chars since they were using i80 weps at best. Now that ex weps are in the game though, I don’t have any issues going into t5/extremes with my alts, since I’m not worried about my gear being up to par. And it makes gearing them up easier/faster, since I don’t have to wait two weeks per wep.
