Everything is farmable and obtainable, so it's not really a hardship anymore. With the 2x orc fang event, expect prices to drop some more.
I am also driven to believe that this set might be upgraded or at least be instrumental to a future questline because of the introduction of jewels. Remember how upgrading the old 31 and 36 helm and armor will lead to the loss of gems? That could well be the case again, hence jewels must be resocketable for use in the new/ upgraded set.
Bottom line, it will do more harm than good if this Glintstone set will be merely abandoned as a token after only a few months of its release. Those who do have it worked hard or paid a lot for it, and those who do not, can still acquire it at a fraction of the cost.
