So about those iLvls

Anyone super upset about replacing their ilvl130 gear right around level 54ish?

Welcome to gear-based MMOs. Where every expansion all that special, top-level gear becomes trash.

Seriously though, it's just part of the genre. Can't really complain about it, especially since the top-level gear you had in ARR was only top-level because it was gear from the latest update. Before that, it was ilvl 120, etc.

Nope. Was expected...and hey if iLv133 gear is better then hey...nice! I will still glamour my Dread Bard chest though to it because I love the look. That is what they make glamour for guys. Now working on the iLv 136 gear from Aeyer and hoping the bow drops soon just to see what it looks like...doubt it will be better than my Zeta yet.

They only ever convert the "lowest" Tome...Poetics will not get converted until much later.

It will prob never be converted, the more likely scenario is law will get converted into esoterics when they uncap esoterics.

The new Tomes that will be weekly limited will be coming in a month. Poetics will be convertible then. So not really "much later".

Poetic will remain for level 50 gear. Collectable for those who still start with ARR or would want to equip alt jobs and want to enter HW with the highest possible ilevel on lv50 gear.

I mostly just wanted people opinions about everything I wasn't complaining.

And yup I did say Nexus. I was working on the Zodiac Zeta and was able to get my Nexus. But now getting the Zeta seems extremely pointless and I probably won't.

How can anyone be sure Poetics will ever be convertible to start with? They're 2 entirely different level of tomes. I could see Poetics staying, along with the Ironworks gear, to give people reason to keep doing the level 50 dungeons if they want that stuff.

Also, I knew from the start that 130 would be replaced, and I'm actually happy it's at a midway point in the leveling process. I'd rather use new things than stick with what I've been using for god knows how long already, and see improvements every level instead of looking past everything for whatever is at 60.

Well if it helps any, the top end gear of this expac will be just as easily replaced whenever the second expac drops. Just how MMOs work. Kind of why I don't try to rush gearing characters. Then again I'm not an end-game content person much.

Also, thanks for the answers about conversions guys ^^ Guess we'll wait and see.

Because there's new crafted gear starting at level 50/51. The Poetics gear won't be necessary as a bridge. Just like with all the other old gear, you'll still be able to get it somehow, but it won't be bought with tomes.
