If it's in the same vein as the current Anima step as far as "stat customization" goes it will accomplish absolutely nothing other then being a glamour gear choice. Slightly higher stats then most gear and being beaten out slightly higher with Savage Raid gear in the same vein as Relic weapons compared to Midan Savage weapons I feel is underwhelming. And then an expansion comes and it becomes worthless again.

If it would accomplish anything it would be rerunning old content to pad out the game. Which is what I would like to avoid. If we must run content for stuff can it at least be relevant?

As for the Ex Primal idea...I'll pass. It would be pretty much farm Primal for 2% drop instead of Mount. Which would make it the same as before. Thus more padding.

Plus when you make it a grind there is really no lore background behind it. And if your armor and weapon has no lore/story to it...it is less interesting. I much prefer knowing "powerful thing wielded stick" instead of "here's your dumb stick go nuts".
