Why this event will not break the economy.
To start I want to say long-term. Not even that long either but about a few weeks. I know some of you will point to crashed prices of certain items (but uhh they aren't even that low) but here is why the economy will not be broken.
The feedstock, extensive alkahest, premium alkahest, masterwork alkahest, and spellbind will all be needed. This is the first patch to contain content that WAS TOOLED WITH VM IN MIND. You pretty much need VM7+ to run the new 30-man raid. What that means is for people who have been using the mid-tier gear to get by they will now go to using VM7+. The mats will be used to enchant these weapons and slowly but surely things will even out again.
Please try and look at this long term before assuming the economy is going to die.
As for the Wings...RIP.

Phase 3 and 4 were balanced around +15, for sure, but most people who are capable of clearing it at all will already have +15. The only thing this event will change for people being able to clear these is letting skilled people gear up with alts to do it with.
This kind of event gets the server active and people on to have some fun. AV had like 10-15 LFG's with 20/20 people. I haven't seen it this active in a long time.
10/10
half the population is ppl on alts, multi-clienting
some ppl even go as far as 4-5 clients (all u need is an i5 or better)
Yes this is one of those events that brings the community together. Now that its over, it will be dead again / afk in highwatch mostly. Except for those still doing dungeons.
