I know they said they wouldn't when 2.5 came out. But I figured that by this point they might have reconsidered considering we're at nearly a month until Heavensward. There's roughly only 2,400 more Poetics left to get until the expansion and I was hoping to upgrade at least my weapons from i110 to i130 (especially on classes I REALLY don't play like WAR and DRG because I don't want to take i135 weapons from my static when they actually play those classes). And 2,400 Poetics is only enough for one i120 weapon since you need those stupid ticket things.

I kind of hope they're not removed, but they have removed Tomes in the past (basically any time we get new ones). Perhaps you won't be able to obtain Sol/Poe when you're 60 but only the new Tomes instead and any classes under 60 can still collect them. Considering i130 gear is supposed to take you pretty far (like until around level 55), it wouldn't make much sense to just get rid of them.
