Magma Incarnate has double recovery on the first piece, and it’s one of the very few to do so (Baron Thirsk is the other?). I see it used on its own to help mitigate the regen penalty of Spaulder of Ruin.

Magma’s second piece can also be useful in dungeons to provide Minor Courage (especially with no Arcanist in group or where an Arcanist wants to forgo Domain to maximize dps) and Minor Resolve (so dps don’t have to rely on Resolving Vigor or a healer’s Combat Prayer for that — it allows stacking of Echoing Vigor in 3 dps runs). Just note the 8m range between subsequent targets after the first. It bounces like Shrouded Daggers, so best for encounters where most of the group is decently close to each other. But in 4-person content it’s usually much better than wasting a five piece on Yol for Minor Courage alone.

Tremorscale can have a place in content for the extra armor debuff, although it generally won’t be necessary if you’ve got reliable Major + Minor Breach and Alkosh. It can be used on a MT with Crimson Oath’s Rive on OT, for example, if Major Breach or Alkosh is missing. Or if the group just needs the pen in general, especially in an AoE (though fairly small).

Jailbreaker is the only universally accessible way to get zero-maintenance access to Minor Expedition for speed builds. (Nightblades have it more easily with Concealed Weapon.)

I’d love the Golden vendor to offer a greater selection of monster shoulder pieces regularly. The gold jewelry is just not worth the cost anymore (I know the price was reduced, but not nearly enough to make it good deal).

Agree, I suppose some of the jewelry pieces are still useful for people who don't want to run a particular dungeon to get them. But I've been having a lot of trouble selling my leftover overland stuff I bought from the golden last year even at a huge loss (like they sell very slowly or not at all for 50-75k, much less than a gold upgrade costs right now on PC/NA).

They're not worth buying anymore. (This is likely because the cost of a gold upgrade is now less of a problem for most folks than the transmutes required to swap the ones from the golden to a good trait).
