Does anyone actually wear the Crown of Persistence for anything other than vanity reasons? At level 56, a character probably already has one or more sets of Raid, Mega Mage, Fury Fighter or Crafted gear. Because the Crown breaks set bonuses (that's still the case right?), then it's really only useful for extra armor in the event someone doesn't yet need a set bonus (a tank, for example?). I can also see it being useful for dual builds gear switching. Am I missing something?

Any reason for a mage to get the mage Crown and not the dex Crown? Thanks.
