Not the from the laat turn necessarily, but that's just semantics.

I don't disagree that we need more midcore content. Asking it the rewards to be on-par with the hardest content, however, is absurd. We'll be getting Void Ark next patch, with the drops probably being i200. They could also add a new extreme/trial at some point with i205 weps (much like Shiva Ex in 2,4) but I doubt it's going to happen. Would love a Singularity Reactor EX tho!
Because crafters could not craft while locked behind books you have to farm a lot blue and red scripts...
Because weekly cap of 450, you know, eso stuff? o_O
Because not all were willing to drop paladin from their groups
and many more reasons!

Try to understand and not just read:
So, you beat AS1 and get a ring, you already BEATEN AS1 and dont need the RING at all...
What about AS4, you will get a Weapon, but then you already have BEATEN it and you dont need that weapon at all...
Undergearing was ment to use the GEAR with that you have beaten it the first time and dont make it EASIER because most of the eliteists are using challenge as argument to have said BiS gear locked behind HARDEST content...
But well, should have guessed such an answer...
