But sure. If anyone happens to still have un-augmented, and can acquire the upgrade tokens from the remaining raids that may still drop them, then some poetics can be saved.
    Yikes. I just checked and you are indeed right. You can not buy the upgrade tokens anymore, and while the repeatable quest is still there... it no longer provides the upgrade token/object anymore.

    So it seems that anyone with unaugmented Ironworks gear who doesn't also have the appropriate upgrade token/item... will have to either just live with it being unaugmented, or spend the full amount for augmented Ironworks.

    My apologies to all for my earlier misleading post

    There's a chance that Final Coil Turn 4 still has the upgrade item as a reward.

    Ya'll act like poetics are hard to obtain and don't rain from the sky.

    The devs were pretty clear about what was happening.

    You suck it up as a loss, get the few hundred poetics (easily gotten in a day) and buy the piece you want.

    Veteran healers don't care if we need to heal, but right now we don't. We want interesting things to do during the downtime other than a 30s dot and a single filler spell that hasn't changed from lvl 4 to lvl 90.
    Dead DPS do no DPS. Raised DPS do 25/50% lower DPS. Do the mechanics and don't stand in bad stuff.
    Other games expect basic competence, FFXIV is pleasantly surprised by it. Other games have toxic elitism. FFXIV has toxic casualism.[/LIST]

    I will say this trying to gear up a retainer:

    There is a downside to this change and that is that you can't have an unaugmented ring and an augmented ring since they don't sell the unagmented stuff anymore.

    Possibly an oversight but the rings need to be un-Unique so you can equip 2 of them.
