Instead you'd get gear boxes with generic leveling gear for your level. Goodbye all the nice gear you liked from dungeon X, or that dropped as random loot from enemy Y. I think they ended up going back and throwing some of it into a vendor to placate the people complaining..
    Fair enough, but I still want to be rewarded for running all content rather than the endgame: everything that is not 260-270 is dead and useless, only good for those who are catching up and even said catching up is badly done (I'm struggling to gear up as dps because tome gear is 230, but dungeon loot is 245 and since alex is dead I can't even take the 250 ones! Sure my tank is high level but what about my dps? Am I to forget them?). I don't demand the same exact method that SWTOR did BUT I'd love a way to make every content viable no matter the item level we currently are and as of now. And while we're at it, they should rebalance synch by allowing everyone to use all of their skills: there's no skill in pushing 2 buttons instead of 3.

    Sure SE does this "thanks" to WT but it's such a poor, POOR implementation that barely makes a difference and - worst of all - it's completely RNG. The Mentor system doesn't work for sure (heck speaking of help, for people like me who are stuck on nidhogg nobody even cares. Way to promote mentoring!) and since old dungeons have absolutely no reason to be done twice (no special achievements, no mount drops, no rare glamour, NOTHING) nobody ever does a run again unless it's roulette. The only piece of content that will remain valid throughout the years is EX primals: the mounts are a good incentive even years after they're dead and THAT'S how it should be.

    But we all know nothing will change so we can only hope that "something" might happen....but I'll unsub until that moment happens if you don't mind!
