Has anyone noticed that these rare items have been gradually dropping in price over the past year?
I think the reason is that they no longer serve any real purpose. Rich players used to like wearing them as vanity because they were far more rare and exclusive than any vanity that existed at the time. But now with super exclusive vanities like the set from Sir Spendalot and others that were given as prizes for events, players can wear a real vanity set that is rare and exclusive over their regular gear, which they cannot do with Forerunner, Founders, Heraldic or Crier sets. And that is a shame since these old sets are so nice looking.
I think time has come for STS to implement some sort of way for players to upgrade these old sets to vanity items.
So here is my idea...
Make another NPC like Sir Spendalot who can upgrade these 4 (and only these 4) types of items (Forerunner, Founders, Heraldic & Crier). Add a new mythic item to locked crates called a "vanity token". This will help STS to sell more locked crates. The vanity token can be spent at the new NPC and will allow you to convert one single item from the list to a vanity item. These new vanity items can then be tradable, and the tokens can also be tradable.
And just a disclaimer: I am not suggesting this for personal interest. I don't have any crier or heraldic sets (which are the most expensive ones by far). I have one single founders set which I would love to convert to vanity and wear.
