Some (myself included) had expected some new color of scrip to be cycled through, either removing entirely the blue scrip, or just shifting downward in importance both the blue and the red, to make "room". Obviously, this has not happened.

I kind of expect something along those lines to happen next time they add more crafted stuff to the game though. I'm not sure if they are going to continue to use red scrip, but they almost have to add a higher tier of crafting gear next time, seeing as we are basically tapped out as far as stats go in our current over melded i170 gear and i180 gear, with the 3 star stats. So I figure the next tier of crafted gear will be 3 star, 850/820 gear, to allow us to produce some 4 star stuff later on. The only real question, in my mind, is whether they are going to add a new scrip color to provide a "tome" way of getting gear, along the model of the crafted i170 and bought i180, or if they are just going to add the new bought stuff to red scrips, obsoleting the current i180.

I had hoped that the red scrip caps would have been lifted though. I would like to get the i180 gathering gear for my retainers, and that is not practical while we are limited to 450 red gathering scrip per week. But I understand why the caps were not lifted with 3.2.
