I agree this change is great for lower geared players. We will see how itemizations plays out in the way imagines it, but in general, the current system is hostile to beginners and offers no reward. However high-geared players will see no change. Once ToS drops and the cap is lifted to 15, we will just run 15, which we run now for shits and giggles anyway. There is close to no incentive to run M+ past the cap, unless you hardcore farm AP or like the challenge.
