Should alliance vendors be updated for TG dlc to include old gear and v15/16?

Just to confirm, below are the only sets that will be available from Rewards for the Worthy when the Thieves Guild update goes live:
  • Vicious Death
  • Transmutation
  • Marksman’s Crest
  • Leki’s Focus
  • Fasalla’s Guile
  • Warrior’s Fury
For the item sets listed above, we will be increasing the drop rate so you are guaranteed to receive a piece from one of these item sets each time, rather than only having a small chance to receive a piece from a large pool of possibilities. You will still be able to obtain the previously-available item sets from the Alliance vendors, and we are currently evaluating plans to alter their wares in the future (both to change the exact sets they offer, and to bring their wares up to VR16).

Moving forward, we will regularly cycle out older item sets from Rewards of the Worthy so you are given a greater opportunity to acquire the newest item sets, and older item sets will be purchasable from the Alliance vendors.

    This isn't about that nice vendor lady. It's about the boxes and elite vendor that was made obsolete when IC dropped.

    I don't think many people will really argue against this, and ZOS' arguments as to why we can't have it are still not really holding up.

    I won't hold my breath, this will be update 10 if we're lucky.

    Gina had to make that post because a noob player was posting that ALL of the older sets were being deleted and that the sets that were introduced in IC were being dropped to V14. I see nothing wrong with the older sets being placed on the vendor as we get the new sets in the RotW mails. It makes sense. Even if it isn't fully updated in this patch, it will be. I am looking forward to acquiring the new seasonal gear.

    I'd like to see most vendors for weapons/armour updated; I know the PvE vendors of weapons/armour I have literally used less than a dozen times if not half that as it is not cost effective. I would love to see purple and even some sporadic set pieces/legendary by zone (even if it's a traveling vendor like the new one who comes weekly in the next patch).
    Baskin Robbins always finds out.

    It's ridiculous they wouldn't do it, I mean why... What is the reasoning not to do it ZoS?
    Why can't we have v16 Morag Tong and Ravager and Martial Knowledge, Shadow Walker etc, is it that difficult to change 2 numbers in the database? I would somewhat understand for PvE-only sets to be available only from DLC zones only to encourage people to buy it, but PvP is not tied to any DLC's and none of the items have ever been (with IC being a rare exception, but that involves PvE aspect to get it) so why limit already limited options?
    Obviously you thought it was a good idea to implement those sets back in the day and scale them to v14 from v12, but why the hell has that stopped with current DLC's?

    I seriously don't get it, either it's total laziness to address anything PvP related or they think it's a good way to force people to get alternatives, which IMO is utter nonsense... If they don't plan to address them, they should just remove them full-stop and explain why. Leaving it hanging in the air and ignoring it just comes across as bad decision-making.

    They won't do it, or if they do they'll only upgrade a few sets, not the popular ones mind you. We all have too much banked AP apparently. And why is that? Because we have nothing to spend it on. And who's fault is that ZOS? Punishing us for their refusal to do it sooner.
