Please remove the weekly lock out of stuff

[Vaer]

It's possible that the gear lockouts themselves are wearing the playerbase out at this stage of the game. Are hardcore raiders even raiding anymore since we're quite close to SB?

They're trying to stretch what they have like crazy. They are trying to funnel people into Alexander Savage, Diadem, keeping the relic still a good weapon so people still spend time making it (By capping the alexander gear for i260 and still no i270 dip without going into Savage) and Zurvan weapons relevant. Unlocking the scripture cap would devalue Dun Scaith drops as well.

They could have unlocked scripture and dun scaith gear, but leave the weekly upgrade items locked for now since you aren't going to get above 260 without those and unlock those some time down the line to keep Savage worth doing.

People are still farming Savage at least on Primal so it is somewhat working. I've noticed queue times have gone up for roulettes so I think people are taking breaks and playing other games like Persona 5 now.

They didn't remove the weekly cap on poetics until HW came out so there is that too.
