What's the point of Demokron Factory dropping Tier 8 Spellbind?

What the title says, basically.

DF is a tier 9 gearing dungeon but dropping tier 8 Spellbind, perhaps it should drop something useful instead.

    Oh, just noticed. It drops tier 8 MES too, what's the point?

    you can turn the t8 spellbind to t9, and as for the mes, either save em for alts, or toss them like the thousands of t7mes I've been tossing out.

    If I remember correctly, KDNM dropped t8 gear and t7 spellbind/mes as pointed out in a post above. But KDHM dropped the t8 spellbind/mes. So DFHM will probably follow the same style

    Just because it seemed daft/broken before doesn't mean that it has to stay daft/broken :)

    Because they want you to combine the useless spellbinds into the useful t9 tier. Why? So that it takes you longer to get the results you want. Why? So you'll play longer.

    That's it, that's literally it. Yeah you can say that ktera had a feedstock problem or whatever, but let's be real. Some dev probably noticed that people last patch were able to enchant their gear and do everything in a week and then sit around doing nothing for six months. So now every change to gear upgrading this patch has had the same result -- that it makes tasks that once took a semi-reasonable amount of time take waaaaaaaay longer than they should ever have to. I'm so glad I upgraded to VM last patch, otherwise I don't even know what I'd do right now. Probably quit. It's not worth it. It's just not worth it when the gear you dump so much time into becomes easily obtainable in six months.

    Except that T8 MES can't be combined or traded

    I usually get BiS and make it perfect and then skip the next patch's gear. Then get the following BiS and repeat. I think more people will start doing the same.

    1. You can buy it from CASH SHOP.
    2. Master Enig scroll price is really cheap now.

    That's not my motivation for the query. I have plenty of MES and some BES. It's the rationale of doing a T9 gearing dungeon to be rewarded with T8 MES that I can't use or trade. If they were combinable to make T9 MES or they were tradeable then they would at least have some value.
