I agree with you - which is why I posted this...
Before TG:
If you were pre-VR15, you would get these Undaunted Bastion/Unweaver/Infiltrator/etc. sets at your level from the chests.
If you were VR15/16, you would get generic non-set decon/vendor gear.
After TG:

If you were VR15/16, you would get these sets as well, except maxed at VR14.
I don't understand why anyone's even complaining about this. Before the update, if you were VR15/16, you weren't getting any set items (not counting shoulders, of course). Just generic decon/vendor stuff. Now, you are still getting decon/vendor stuff, except it's VR14 and part of crappy sets that nobody wants anyway. It's not like they replaced any good stuff with trash. They just swapped one form of trash and replaced it with a slightly less trashy form of trash.
Anyway, even when these sets used to be max level--last year, before IC--nobody bothered with them. Why start caring now?
At least the V15/16 gear gave tier 10 mats when decon'd. Deconing V14 gear just gives stuff we don't really need and because no one actually wants those gear pieces, that's what's gonna happen to them.

Is this as intended or bugged?
