Not impressed by this update.
A new tier of gear already is very surprising. A player takes a break from the game and when they come back they are behind. Sounds like a gear treadmill to me. And making it obtainable via one facet of the game is short-sighted.
Agony is also a very lazy mechanic to gate progress. It promotes gear > skill. And it also segregates players. If you want to get further in to the dungeon you wont be taking that “noob” without agony resistance. Oh joy!

Are we just supposed to destroy items purchased in error? Items can be bought even if they cannot be used by the profession, added to the fact they cannot be salvaged or sold.
They are also soulbound, so giving them to an alt is also not an option. This is a very poorly implemented system.

Walk into a casino with $50, dunk it all in the slot machines.

How much will you walk out with?

Yeah….

The jackpot. Or I will ask for my $50 back.
