No words about that so they'll probably just delete that pearl item you used. 

Seems PA's imagination well has run dry.

Any creative work is now copy/paste, with a little garnish added, hoping we won't notice, and thinks we got something new.

Every other "improvement" is getting rid of stuff.

Simplification has never improved life.  It makes us lazy, and makes things boing.

Variety is the spice of life.

I'd like to live a charmed life.

Well hopefully they'll give out a free appearance change coupon, it's the least they can do. I'm not optimistic about it though. 

t5's and below should not be removed from people who already have them. it would be like them removing old quest gear like the ring of power or the grana oath set. what about that t1 corsair i have? instead what they should do is leave them alone and make t5's and below no longer obtainable.

I don't want them removed. I also don't want them to be unobtainable. I like variety. Sadly PA does not. They're not hurting anything to keep them just as they are. 

Using one of the free breed resets they gave out I reset the breed count on my T4 so I could breed him (with a T8 female, coulda got a chance at an imperial steed breeding it with a T8 but I chose my favorite T4 instead). I rushed that t8 female to 30 this morning just for this.

I did this because I wanted something of him, even if it's just a T7 offspring of his. Sitting here waiting for him to be gone forever is tearing me apart. I just feel like I have to do something, something that is within my control. This is it :/ Until they remove T7s too and all we have left are T9s and T10 who don't even have appearance change options except Pegasus.

I know I'm setting myself up to be disappointed and upset all over again, but that T7 offspring will nvr be my original T4 anyway. It's all just for the sake of not totally sitting here helpless...

Oh... oh right... appearances.  That's another thing that will add load to their database and network.  Ding, finally hit me.  That's consistent with all of the other "simplifications", in addition to removing the tiers themselves.  The t9s ansd t10s save them money that way, in addition to possibly prompting additional spending.

Which also explains all the cut & paste classes, costumes, behaviors, etc. etc.  The more they remove uniqueness, the more they save in operating costs.

Removing lower tiers from the field was a mistake too. Value was terrible at some point, I totally agree, but I used to do it because it was fun. I would get a bunch of horses then look at the different combination, etc. Now everything is getting manufactured toward making those end game RNG heavy items. More and more, what is left to keep me playing is the fun I have with the community, the past accomplishements and souvenirs I carry from past adventures, including my horses. And now I'm told most of thoses horses are to be turned into glue. And I'm not even talking about all the Event seals (I always keep 1 of each as souvenir) I've kept over the years, and now they announced they'll be deleting those too. What will be left at the end? Only T10 and Gear Score? The game is going into a strange direction.
