    The thing is, STS keeps making the mistake by releasing mythic weapons EVERY event. This just trashes the elite market. If you think about it, there isn't a demand for elite items, and there isn't a supply of elite items since no one is farming it. So you just have this standstill elite market. I like what Kalizza said about sacrifices. I think that should also apply to skills, since everyone is kind of using the same thing. I don't understand economics well, so someone let me know if I am incorrect.

    Imbued will Prob still be pretty good. Keep in mind imbued are something a little more special, the original level 41 legendaries are dark Crystal armor. I wouldn't have an issue with it as long as new gear is as difficult to get but of course, they should Prob be more expensive them imbued sets then. I do think that imbued gear is an awesome thing sts did as its only available via farming and gives elite farmers something awesome to work for. Even if you don't loot the dark Crystal gear, there is still a reasonably healthy market for elite planar chests.

    Most people go in knowing that legendaries will only last one season and mythics will last 2 (not 3,4,5,6). Knowing that legendaries will last 1 season, people still fork out 10-20m to purchase these items. You can't buy a item that's on its last leg then complain about it so it beats these 10-20m gear.

    I know right! If it's not going to be upgraded something needs to happen... And I couldn't liquidate my mythic too xD

Some people recently purchased them and, those are likely the people who are newer to this game and spent a ton of time farming to buy them. I used myself as an example to show how it can be beneficial to use it as a set for an alt, as opposed to just junking the set. I have enough gold that it wouldn't be a financial burden on me to trash this set but I am trying to think outside of the box because not everyone can afford a new set.
    Yeah I recently got mine... And it's really annoying there going to waste.

    That wasn't the point. The point is that people knew that these items expire after a certain time period. Mythics that are 5 levels below current cap.

    It's like buying Arcane Hooks today and then immediately creating a post for them to be upgraded.

    After the tombs update, a good amount of friends and guildmates were finally able to get an arcane pet and a mythic weapon. Most of the season, I've seen them with slag and/or expedition bow. The creation of the tombs with gear that yielded lots of possible gold gave them this chance they've been waiting a long time for. None of this would have happened if mythic gear was going to be eternal. Imbued would have no value. Chests would have no value. Compare farming values of Tindirin vs Tombs. People would have bought 10 mythics instead of 1 imbued.

    Where were you farming (if you did) and how often?

    Upgrading the mythics won't be wise. Personally my mythic set has the para gem, 3 eyes and a whole set of reinforced gems. I should be crying in the corner.
    Due to lack of proper farmable items in elites people stopped running them. With the coming of new planar tombs and the new amulet, it saw a surge of players running these map's just to get the legendary and mythic amulet set.
    Upgrading the mythics will only result in prices of legendary items farmed in the coming expansion to lose their value.
    You feel you don't have much money in your stash, tell you what, upgrading the mythics will maybe upgrade your set to the new level but your stash will still be empty. Whereas if you have something to farm in elites which price from 1-5m(let's say) your stash won't be empty and you ll also be able to buy everything your toon needs. Its a win win. Plus there will be excitement in the game.

    Vanity or no vanity, I am a collector, I ll preserve my mythic for future. Maybe a twink toon

    Que sera sera.

    Stg knows that this is something they have to make a decision on when going forward with the next expansion, and they know that no matter what they do some people are gonna rage about it.
