To BB if the are reading this. NO amount of new features and shiny goodies in gem shop will address the problem of salt/titanium shortage created by 1. removing weapons from loot and forcing players to make them and 2. tiny amount of those resources dropping as loot from adventures. 3 huge amount of those resources needed to produce those weapons. Every day the titanium/salt crunch is getting worse and it will eventually cripple the game for lots of players to the point of being unplayable.

You were warned about this few times on test forums and the tiny modifications to weapons makers were not enough. We are heading into salt/titanium depression because few Misters and Ragnars on each server will not suffice to support entire server economy. The consequences of making some epic weapons practically unobtainable will be catastrophic for the game and players.
