I crafted all VR15 sets at the beginning and slowly replace them with VR16 items when I have enough mats for a piece.
This is primarily aimed towards crafted gear but any VR 16 gear counts too I guess.
I ask this because I still use VR 14 crafted gear and am still working for mats. Dunno how many others are at a similar place to me or have the full gear they need.
As a crafter one thing Ive noticed is that people use way more purple glyphs than legendaries and no wonder Kuta cost like 20k and Rekuta 1-2k.
