More Horizontal Progression please

[Nadirah]

I tried reading through all of the prior posts, so I apologize if I missed someone already bringing this idea to the table. If horizontal progression or a hybrid of some sort was used, how about gear sets that once wearing the required pieces unlock bonus skills, not just attributes. I haven't really thought this through yet, but the idea seemed interesting and would be happy to hear peoples' thoughts.

EQ2 kinda had that with the epic weapon, but it was essentially mandatory later so they made a quest to extract the ability out of it...

It'd be nice if your AF gear upgraded every patch like the gobtwine etc idea. New Dungeons/raids/quests/trials all dropped a significant piece that when you have collected all the items, pass in the quest to upgrade your gear for the new patch. I'll admit tome grinding gets boring, I haven't worried about capping since myth was the thing and usually geared up through CoB or the new Alex fights(I capped eso just for the 200 wep).
