So, the materials and drops from missions/bosses..
The ones from S1/S2, below level 80. What are those going to be useful for now?
Because the way I understand it, they won't be used for making equipment anymore.

But then how is low level equipment going to be crafted and upgraded?
Drops from mobs/bosses.
What about upgrading it?
I don't necessarily mind farming my equipment, as long as the game doesn't just "give" it to me without any effort, but what about the materials left over from before RISE? What do we do with them, just vendor them?
And that's not what I want at all. I want to take my time with the journey, enjoy it, do the content, do all the quests, the oaths, the battle points and slowly work my way towards the end game. I don't want to be pushed and shoved towards the end-game because the game is trying to "rush" me.
Well that's stupid if the game is really going this direction of "end game or nothing." I always enjoyed this game for the slow climb, the journey, not the destination.
Hence why there was and is so much backlash towards RISE
This is taken from the (amazing)translation notes from Cube and Akkiina. Probably already stated in this thread, but it seems that most lower lvl mats are being removed, however there will be a particular use for the remaining low level drops through talents like armor/weapon-smithing. It seems like they are trying to streamline the talent system as well as give incentive to using it by making it a player-crafted item only as well as making it easier to get mats for crafting in general.
Old mats like lak fangs or whatever will become useless, so use them up before the patch hits.
