Erenors don't get critical damage unlike metal weapons (and a bow), if you go erenor you normally go longspear or shortspear otherwise it's better to go for an obsidian t7.
Me having my T7 plays no part in this, I've had this since 3.0 I just don't want another economy to crash purely because of people complaining that endgame gear is too hard to get.
You're right that XLGames probably didn't give a shit about the crafting recipes and instead they've wanted to include more different materials in order to have some sort of economy however honestly it's balanced out some-what the way it's been done.
Endgame gear is meant to be 'endgame', it's meant to be something to work towards rather than be easily gotten. 30 Wrathsmites are apart of the grind for metal T7's. I see nothing wrong in the current recipes but if a change is to be made I'd honestly prefer Kadum's Barks being increased to deal with the huge supply at the moment.
You have to remember this is a player driven economy, only a few weeks ago Kadum's Barks were also 1,000g+ but then people started to kill Kadum quite often. If suddenly more groups starting running Mistsong you'd also see a noticeable drop in the prices.
You still haven't really addressed the disparity between the two different types of weapons. One costs orders of magnitude more than the other for what you admit is probably no real reason. That should be fixed.
