I don’t know what I did to upset you guys but I’m sorry, to make it up to you I’ll just tell you which gold sets I have that are still untouched if you want. Off the top of my head sheer venom and morag tong unless I missed something the past year.
If you’re not mad at me and I just have bad luck maybe consider reimbursing 100% of those purple and gold mats during Decon or anytime the sets nerfed to maybe not drive people away from the game?

Easy solution. Don't gold out super broken sets that ZOS takes way too long to fix. If anything be mad that they dont hotfix broken sets quicker but don't come to the forums to cry that you lost out on golding your sets when its obvious you were abusing a broken set. Sloady.

Dreugh King Slayer a broken set? What.

For someone like me who dislikes PVE and crafting it's a real pain to farm/buy the mats.
It wouldn't be so bad if we we're at least guaranteed half of the mats back on deconstruct.
I’m not really interested in half I want to undo their legacy entirely if they targeted me specifically because it’s been literally every patch. I want 50 transmute crystals back in a geode too.
so, a set that is not golden is unusable? from purple to gold is like a just 3% increase
and nobody forces you to grind. You grind because u want to suck every 1% you can to be top meta

If this is what the world has come to - we are all doomed... Get over yourself.

Don't run FOTM overpowered sets, and you won't have to replace them.

This has worked out well for me, overall. I'm also glad I didn't buy into the whole, "yeah, you need to get gold NMG everything."

Dreugh king slayer, cyrodiils crest, seventh legion, spc, and impregnable are not fotm.
Sheer venom and morag tong also aren’t, although morag tong seems to be meta.
Shacklebreaker, Julianos, fortified brass, clever alchemist, silks of the sun, vicious death, war maiden, essence theif, leeching plate, shield breaker, spriggan’s and netchs touch also survived btw.
I also had my own build for magdk that used the bonus for having multiple ardent flame abilities with innate axiom and that was screwed up when they changed abilities for dk (summerset I think), I had to be the only dk in the game to get nerfed. Was my favorite and that’s when it went downhill, murkmire sealed the deal though I don’t have time for this unless I get those labor intensive resources back.
So we have abilities on my main (stamdk) in clockwork, seventh legion in dragon bones, rip my dk in summerset, cyrodiils crest in wolfhunter that I had switched to from seventh legion and transmuted several weapons and jewelry of, and now dreugh king and impregnable which were the other sets that weren’t replaced from before. Some changes to monster helms too I think, and some weapon abilities along the way. I was excited for the improvements like 2 handed and staff 2 set bonuses, transmutation, etc so I overlooked what was piling up.
My magblade was nerfed similar to my dk over time, I’d say that was my second favorite. Several no longer have builds as I don’t have the motivation to make one, which I’ve always preferred to do, they just kind of sat there the past 6 months.
If you see that z box next to their name do not kill just lay down and die pretending to fight. Let them take the keep and everything just make it look real.

And one below that that says, "Remember Balance Is Only Achieved When No Class Is Fun To Play."
