Ooh... new patch notes! ... Wait...

Because it makes so much sense to unlock them in the expansion..

I dont get why people expect them to still follow the line, when an expansion means the end of the line.

ilevel 130 gear will not be useless the moment you get level 51

ilvl 130 wont have any meaning in Heavensward, because i doubt anyone would expect people to do old content, to gear up on ilvl130, just so they can get the Heavensward quests done, or for the sake of having a good starter set for the new endgame, thats not how transitions into expansions work.

The first Heavensward dungeon would give the players ilevel 110 gear, if it follow the pattern with dungeon drop. The moment a new player reach level 60 he get his ilevel 130 gear or gear near ilevel 130 without farming tomes for it.
