Update Faction Gear?

With the possibility of fresh start servers coming, as well as more people coming back into the game, starting new etc. these faction gears need an overhaul. They used to be worth grinding for at the beginning of the game (granted, while resil was bugged) but once gearscore was brought in more solidly, they immediately were thrown out for better 590+ gears. If the gearscore of the faction vendor was 590 at the upper tier, it would give people an option to get quickly kitted out in Resil+Refreshing pieces that will get scaled down at first, but will upgrade with you while you grind out your gearscore. It will be useful on the fresh start servers. Possibly even making them like what they did with crafting (where you keep the gearscore it’s at if you crafted it yourself - it’s not scaled down, but you still have to have the proper expertise to upgrade it past 600)? A simple change to these pieces in bringing them all up to 590 GS instead of 520 GS just would give another option to people to quickly gear up without having to spend on crafted gears immediately, and would be greatly appreciated on the fresh start servers so people could easily jump into pvp and have things to grind for and spend their faction points on since orbs are not a thing anymore. Would be super simple to update them too, for an immediate quality of life upgrade for all new players (or less-geared) without breaking anything, I would think, since they aren’t BIS but still useful.
