My thinking on Umbral shards - why they are implementing it

OK, so I am thinking of this new Umbral shard thing coming.
I like to look at things from a different perspective.

Correct me if I am wrong - Umbral shards were never a thing when they planned to introduce the expertise things

They listened to player feedback and changed it so crafted items, and items obtained pre-patch were not affected.

They now want their own way with a change - so they are/will be introducing Umbral shards and a gear score increase to 625.

Just my thoughts.

I don’t think it’s a great change, not everyone farmed their HWM up so high. The Gypsum casts can only increase an items gear score up once per day due to cooldowns. Furthermore, it’s usually a bump of 3 up to a possible maximum of 590 (for now).

I don’t understand what you trying to say. I’d point out that gypsum casts were never meant to be the main source of exp bumps. It’s only a side system to give players some control over their progression.

Indeed most of my bumps are from the elite chest zerg runs last couple weeks.
