I doubt they will make it worthless i think the necklace wont be either,
I just think there trying to deck out our heroes with the items they already havethought about the outcome to an extent.

Yes but I wasn’t interested in the benthic gear. The world quests in the original areas were giving 420 gear last time I was on the PTR. I leveled up a few 120s in Korrak AV and I was planning on gearing them up more there.
Benthic gear + gem slots = Money still in patch 8.3. Now corrupted gear with crit bonuses? That is what a lot of people will be going for.
Most corrupted gear without any anti corruption or no gem slots are not worth using with the launch 8.3.
Now down the line when you can add gem slots to corrupted gear things change. But we are talking many months from now. Can 8.3 hold up until then?
I can see it now.
Shadowlands gear will be able to Shadowforge and have this evil Shadow Power gives you more crit or something. However if you too much Shadow Power you will get all these negative effects such as ghosts randomly seeking you out and blowing you up.
But lucky for you there is this legendary bracelet that everyone has that can counter act the negative effects of Shadow Power. All you have to do is grind a bunch of world quests and some boring scenario every week to level its Shadow Resistence up.
Problem is benthic gear effects only works in Nazatar and Eternal Palace. Won’t work in 8.3 raid or content since you won’t be in Nazatar.
The gem slots that can RNG in benthic gear is worth a lot of ilevel. Not trivial by any means.
