If it costs 15 Gilded for Hero gear to go from 619-623, then Hero gear is maxed out at 619, the same as Champion, because itd be a massive waste to use Gilded to get to the min Myth lvl. Maybe consider changing the cost on the 619>623 upgrade.

Why? You have to use Myth track crests - Gilded Harbinger - to upgrade Myth track items. The same is true for every other upgrade track.

It sure would. Thankfully, that’s not how it works.

Can you explain how youre upgrading hero gear to 623 without using gilded crests?

I misread what you said, I think, but your premise is still wild. You spend myth currency to get to myth ilvl (623 start)
Literally that simple.

Ya and my premise that that hero gear will be sitting at 619 forever because its a waste to use gilded on. Which makes the the same as champion gear. Please explain?
Why is it a waste? Are you even going to get myth track gear?

I don’t pay close attention to my gearing options because I’m happier when I’m oblivious to why I have more shinies
but
I was under the impression that once I had a piece of gear at a certain level, all currency requirements to upgrade any lower piece of gear regardless of upgrade track becomes valorstone-only at reduced cost, without using crests.
I’m keeping three completely separate sets of gear for my three specs and I’m dying from a drought of valorstones but my off-set specs don’t use any crests at all.

This is correct, but he’s speaking specifically about the part where you need mythic level crests to upgrade your last 7/8 hero piece, as an example. It is a waste nobody wants to do because you save 15 crests if you get a mythic item drop instead and you can use those 15 crests to upgrade that.

They should make it so the same place you got the item, is where you get the upgrade components.
Have Myth-track require Gilded and only Gilded.
Have Hero-track require Runed and only Runed.
Have Champ-track require Carved and only Carved.
Have Vet-track required Weathered and only Weathered.
Get rid of the overlaps. They’re stupid and only frustrate people.

It feels like their way of saying: if you don’t like it, if you don’t want to spend extra crests … then don’t.
just git gud
If you can take 4/6 Heroic gear and push straight to Mythic-track … then this is your reward! And as well all know from the bloviating around here, there are people that will do this.
But it’s just a fact that MOST people are going to want/need to spend some gilded crests to push their 4/6 to 6/6 … so that they can finally just get to the point where they can earn the Mythic-track gear in the first place.

This, coming from the guy who won’t answer the question.
If you’re not going to get Myth track items, it’s not a waste. If you are, work on capping your Gilded.
This is much simpler than you make it out to be.
Answer my original question then, since its my post and all. Whats the point of hero gear if its stuck at 619 just like champion gear? See if we can get you up to 12k posts.

Because you can get Gilded Crests before you have access to Myth track. +9s, initially, +8s post-crybabies.
Quietly…or not so quietly idk anymore which… hoping I can get Gilded crests in Delves so I can use the upgrade system to unlock the mythic tier appearance. I don’t care for the light themed ones I’m a void weaver please for the love of everything let us get those crests in high tier delves I want that void armor. Let me rock the void naaru armor by giving me gilded crests to upgrade my hero track gear to unlock myth appearance

Hero and champ from delves/vault is likely the best gear I will get so upgrading it is fine as I will never do a mythic raid or high M+.
