I'd say it's mid-phase in planning. He is going to make T1 ZNM's poppable and we will be able to trade in PW gear for the T1 pop items prior to the gear wipe. He hasn't (that he has mentioned) determined how many pop items will be awarded as compensation for each PW item. The T1 ZNM's will drop T2 pop items etc. The T1 pop items will be sale-able- my guess is bazaar only.
Is it Just PW items he wants, or is more ZNM fair on the buyback list?
As far as I remember hearing, only PW items at the moment. I don't know for sure if that means the other items will all get kept, but I suspect he is hesitant to remove too much gear from people. It's a catch 22- if he gives no compensation people feel shafted, he can't give gil because it will F up the economy, and he can't pass out too many pop items because they will be devalued.
Yea, not exactly an easy thing to navigate. I know he's touchy about the gil thing, and even if he only gave the some 300-odd people w/ Hachi body 1M that's flooding 300M in. And there's a lot of lesser ZNM gear out there too. Would be more disastrous than beneficial. Pop items wouldn't be too terrible I would think, I mean he did suggest a 50 or 100k price from the NPC if he goes that route, I don't think they'll be too tough to come across.
I'm down with whatever he does with em, I just like to stay in the loop. What little ZNM gear I have won't be difficult to re-earn since the mobs will be appropriate levels and not 99 cap. I'll be extra excited if it means having a chance at Aurum Armet/Cuirass as well. I could put those to use.
