Air Weapon Set: Impossible to get almost (Spinward)

So you thought getting the the drowned shore weapon/offhand set that most everyone is after (Epic HE crab killing, 100 times) was bad?
A least its doable with an awful boring 6-12 hour grindfest.

The spinward rise / air weapon set is almost impossible.

- The only Epic Heroic Encounter to get 100% mote drop (the only practical way) is "Battle for Mistral Point"
- But the zone is dead. Noone is doing the HE and so it is impossible to complete solo.
- MAJOR problem is that the HE is BUGGED and spontaneously despawns when close to completing it.
The bug with this HE has been there since mod6 launch back in April and was supposedly fixed but wasn't

Please give 100% mote drop for any small or large HE (give 1 mote for any HE and 2 for epic HE - still 50 needed is a lot)
This way players need not rely on a single (bugged, in spinward case) Epic HE.

Right now the only way to get the air weapon set is to complete possibly 1000s of lesser HEs in spinward.
This is utterly unreasonable. Noone with any life or sanity will ever do that.

    This whole Elemental Evil revisit is a bad idea. After finally making it to 70, we should be rewarded with a quest to retrieve a weapon set worthy of that enormous uphill climb, not sent back to do the same BS for another untold nie-infininte f*'n days and days' worth of f*'n grind. They finally came out with Elemental Evil weapons and screwed it up by making it as stupidly impossible to get them as it is to get to get from 60 to 70. I can't even gather up enough of the excitement and joy I had when I saw the theoretical rewards of this mod to actually play through the story of it. Why would the devs throw the EE grind/mistake back in our faces like this? I thought they were giving us an alternative path to get to 70 and fixing the ill-will mod6 had and continues to generate - just look at how much better they have made the AD economy and the TTB store - it's beyond frustrating and I just don't understand it. My recommendation at this point is to ignore the tease of having an EE weapon set, Air or otherwise, and just keep to the SH grindstone.
    Maybe the epic Demo HE doesn't push the Twisted set beyond reasonable reach, but like I said, I can't muster up the wherewithal to get to it, after going for the EE weapons. But, if it does make you grind 100s or 1000s of the eDemo to get the required b-side ichor, then just stick to the mod 7 grind. It may not be great, but it is a more assured path to a solid weapon set with stats that make some kind of sense, while at the same time helping everyone in your guild (if nothing else through boons along the way). Plus, you get to spend time with your guild - which for me is becoming more and more the reason I play this game.

    I have to agree, I have yet to use the elemental weapon I got from finishing that grind, but checked out the new ones and thought the water one looked like something worth getting. LOL but after going to drowned shores, having very few HEs come up, and realizing that you only get one mote per HE if lucky, Im going to forsake this. Im getting very tired of the grind, if it was like 20 motes, maybe I would consider continuing that quest, but for now it is just another wasted content.
