Its a clever business strategy to initially have the drops very low In the early days of an expansion, such as more players are enticed to open more locks seeing the ridiculous gold prices of gears.
Then, they'll drastically bump up the drop rates whenever the expansion is coming to an end, and is starting to prepare for a new one, such as players are still encouraged to open locks seeing the good odds.
If the drops of the best gears are held constant for every lock, then only a few players would open the locks later in the expansion seeing the gears exceptionally stable, reasonable in price.
For our perspective, It's a complete scam, and just a way to squeeze our pockets everytime.
We are completely deluded by the 'Arcane' rarity not being so 'Arcane' in the later times of every expansion. For those who buy them for gold early in the expansion are scammed later, same as those who open them for plat early in the expansion are scammed.
And to add up to the mix, they'll find a way to destroy these gears by nerfing/weakening the procs in the higher levels, to make way for the 'new' weapons, and the cycle repeats.
