The following was included in an explanation of the Armor Tier system in the TWID posted June 26th, prior to the release of [b]Edge of Fate[/b] (emphasis added): [quote]Long-term, we hope to eventually add support for Exotics to access the benefits of higher tiers using a dedicated system that reflects their nature as a unique centerpiece in your builds. Although [i][b]this system won’t be ready for the Year of Prophecy[/b][/i], we wanted to make sure that Exotic armor could benefit from armor archetypes and the reworked Masterworking system.[/quote] As the [b]Year of Prophecy[/b] still has several months to go before it wraps up, it will likely be some time before we see any such changes being implemented.
