I don't get your bleeding money argument.....there isn't a monthly subscription, and the DLC are/were mostly all pre-ordered. They got the money, not much bleeding going on that I can see...comet will be (hopefully) expansion worthy of paying for, but that's September at best! Almost a year after original release... The decision to leave behind VoG raid gear was baffling sure, but I think it was just a really poor decision to extend playtime. Simple answer is all new drops after the DLC went live should have had tower-comparable stats at least, same for when HoW goes live in a month or so.
