Motifs dont make sense

After the release of One Tamriel, buying or getting new motifs is slowly becoming pointless. Why would I want new motifs if I wont be able to use them cause crafted gear no longer seems to be the best.
why not add a system to change the motif of your current gear??

    I like motifs and I have enough crafted gear to make them worth it for me.

    That said, I would not be opposed to a transmorg feature (excluding Monster sets and other unique looks)

    Yes, this has been a pretty common theme lately.

    I do not agree on the first point, I do on the second.

    Simple solution: get the normal sets style volatile, meaning we can change it, while unique stuff (Monster helms, etc.) gets to be of its fixed style. Make it so that if we want to make the, let's say, Hist Sap set from Argonian to Dunmer, we need to have the Dunmer motif.
    There we go, sets still relevant, motifs still relevant, crafted gear hasn't been touched.

    People still use crafted gear. Just not as much.

    They'll end up releasing new crafted sets eventually, this is the first patch were crafted gear use how go down so much.

    Crafted gear is still used a lot in end game trials, twice born, julianos, hundings, night mother gaze etc..

    Motifs are almost like a mini game for completionist. As OP stated, dropped sets seem to be preferred over crafted gear right now. I know most motifs, and there are quite a few I have never used to craft. Why would I craft sets beyond the ones I crafted to gold when tempers cost so much and there is no storage for sets to lay around unused, even with craft bag? zos seems intent on introducing more and more motifs, but what's the point beyond my first sentence. It would be great to be able to change styles on existing crafted items. Otherwise the plethora of style sets seems pointless.

    Im really not interested in getting or buying any motif, even though the new one seems to look very good cause of this.....im not paying 15 bucks for a motif just to unlock an achievement which seems to be the only useful thing you can do with motifs now... :(
