    I mean it drops some of the best gear you can get but (for example) the Midas tank head is trash and you can get equivalent/better stuff from sleepwalk mode content as of 3.3. It's not like unlocking it now would harm the integrity (lol) of their gear progression system.

    Btw just to give y'all an update (since I'm sure you were all wondering) we raided today and could not find a guy to skip us past any floors. Lots of stuff hit the ground. Maybe next week!

    You need to spin this at an angle that SE can jump on board with.

    Removing all current tier lockouts about 1 month prior to the next tier will BRING BACK some of the subscribers that are simply waiting to re-sub for the next patch. When all of the current tier will be completely invalidated day 1 of the new patch by crafted, you really aren't breaking the current tier by unrestricting loot and access to it. But you WILL be giving players something to do. Like gearing up the 11 alt jobs they haven't had a chance to, getting more (sale runs) people in to the content, etc.

    TL/DR - Remove lockout before patch = profit

    Well I did say "if the intention is to keep players playing."

    TBH, I think their scheduling for raid content should be --

    3.3 add coats and twines via 24 man.
    3.35 add dip via 24 man but make it take a few weeks to get.
    3.38 unlock Savage -- keep 1 / 2 chest system but completely unlock manifestos. Allow players who've already cleared a floor to skip that floor in future weeks.
    3.39 (maybe 2 weeks prior to the next patch) add optional echo to Savage.
    3.4 add Savage to DF.

    That'd certainly help a bit with the clear-rates.
