Well I opened a gold key chest and got this:
As you can see I am V16 and I have just picked up a whole pile of nice old armour all scaled to V14. Awesome.

I really hope this change is not permanent but a mistake and we get good loot soon.

heyewe✭✭✭I thought it was a mistake that I've been getting V14 undaunted blue and purple set gear from the veteran pledges, tried to put in a ticket...not to rage, but just to say "..did you know that the gold and silver keys are spawning.." And I got an error on my ticket submission. "Try again later" Ugh.
Agree with @failkiwib16_ESO I hope it changes soon!2 -

✭✭✭✭✭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 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 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 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?Edited by code65536 on March 29, 2016 12:11PMNightfighters ― PC/NA and PC/EU

Sounomi✭✭✭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.1 -

I think people are upset because someone at ZoS took the time to update the chest loot tables to include these sets... which was a colossal waste of time and resources as it accomplished basically nothing if they are still v14. News flash ZoS, you killed any desire to want less than v16 when you created the gear gap from v14 - v16 with the IC update but you still insist on pushing v14 and v15 garbage at capped players for some reason. This is not filler gear. It's not "use til we find something better" gear. It's decon fodder plain and simple and I liked the system from the previous update better when I got 1 - 3 pieces of AT LEVEL decon gear instead of 1 piece of v14 trash.
Simple way to improve it? Scale the undaunted sets to v16 for a start. Include jewelry for all 3 sets. Have a small chance for each piece to be purple. Make sure to keep it bind on equip so there is some sort of potential to sell/trade your decent items. Now you have something that could potentially be interesting for v16 players.Edited by redspecter23 on March 29, 2016 12:17PM3 -

Max-tier writs require 1 piece of VR15 gear, 2 pieces of VR9 gear (except for one of the blacksmithing days, when it's 1pc/4pc). Now that Wrothgar and Hew's Bane only drop VR15-16 mats, I'm drowning in stacks and stacks of the max level stuff while daily writs are fast depleting my reserves of VR9-14 mats.Nightfighters ― PC/NA and PC/EU

Exactly.
There are many, MANY, awesome sets in game with great synergies with other ones, that are not used because they're not scaled to the end game.
I've got a DK Pyromage, and Set of the Sun scales only to VR12, so, guess what, later she's going to run in the same crafted gear as 90% of game population uses.
Or those rare, fancy dungeon weapon sets like Arsonist double enchant set staff that drops are almost nonexistent and only scale to VR14. Torug's Pact, here I come!Kha'jira's Scribbles - Such Blog, Many Thingies, Very Wow!2 -

✭I opened my first few Gold Key chests the other day.
I've received one item that was worth anything, the vast majority are garbage.
Glad to see this is what I've waited for. =\
I've returned to hoarding them. Maybe one day they'll come up with a system that doesn't blow chunks.Wake up, we're here. Why are you shaking? Are you ok? Wake up...1 -

Toast_STS✭✭✭✭Just started rocking the 5pc undaunted infiltrator on my Mag Sorc. With the changes to lightning staff this set is pretty sweet. I wish it was v16 but it may be too good then.
