Let us Dye Normal Raid gear

Okay so minion and orchestration are now in nm. What incentivizes me to do the significantly more difficult Savage version of the fight instead for them, an expansion later?

As far as a mount farm is concerned, that's 8 fights of (multiple of 4)s, then done. Not nearly the life of an ex mount farm.

Anything else the devs would choose to add. I fully realize that's asking for more threads like this asking to make accessible those other boons, but there'll always be people like that no matter what you try and do. The thing is, speaking of extreme primals, the devs eventually move away from Savage whereas they keep breathing life into old extreme primals.
Remember Nidhogg ex? The one you thought you were done with because you got the mount? Here - have these amazing weapons. Go get 'im.
I don't think they added anything like that to Savage, did they?
