Thanks for you concern,
I have a set, if someone wishes to purchase they can I'm not forcing anyone but not everyone sees EP as $ign. There's plenty of free EP out there, not everyone has to buy EP ingame and it's just what you choose to spend it on.
I should be charging more for how rare it is, with no-one is really wasting money on buying chests to try get it apart from the odd few. The only way for someone to get it is buy chests, find some noob who doesn't know how rare it is or if feeling really lucky possibly get 1 piece out of 10k but that's not even a certainty.
The game might be dead but there's still plenty of EP coming into the game. I would still happily buy EP if i really wanted something ingame if the game is dead or not because the fact is I still enjoy the game and it's the people who don't play are missing out.
Some people are tight and some aren't that's the way of life.
