Green Steel Deconstruction
◦◦ [9] ⇪ Kate Paiz, Ten Ton Hammer live chat (2009 April) - "It’s certainly something that is important to us, it makes sense, and we understand why players want it. ...we just haven’t quite gotten a clear and decisive answer as to when.".

A single shard tier three weapon like the one you mention would (with the current plan) be turned back into 4-8 random smalls, 4-8 random mediums, and 4-8 random larges.

Say hi to Vargouille! He'd shake your hand, but he only has tentacles. .

Would be nice if it actually happens in the expansion.... All that money pumped into recently from pre-launch sales.

Could compensate for lack of Epic scrolls dropping a wee bit ;-D
