In order to combine a Gyro Cores and make T3 raid items, you either need the corresponding T2 item, or you need to buy an Un-Cored Template (http://everquest.allakhazam.com/search.html?q=un-cored) from Automated Vending Unit II (http://eqbeastiary.allakhazam.com/search.shtml?id=26865) in Dragonscale Hills (also need proper faction with ASFV).
In order to purchase (unlock) each individual Un-Cored Template slots, you must have credit for different kills:
Bracer: The Soulbleeder Must Bleed (Bimbolicious) -or- Ralkor's Crystals (BM3)
Boot: Breakneck (MMM)
Glove: Prototype (MMM)
Arms: Krond (MMM)
Helm: Brinda Sprockets (MMM)
Leg: Bargangle (MMM)
Chest: Meldrath (MMM)
Its kind of an odd setup by locking these Templates to begin with....if ya loot the Core, odds are you helped kill the mob anyway. And its not like these Templates have any value without posessing a Gyro Core.
Guilds with newer members and/or folks who missed these raids (for whatever reason) cannot make T3 armor. They can make a Gyro Core by downgrading a Prismaridescent Essence, but then are SoL because they don't have access to the Templates.
Can you either (A) make the corresponding Crystallos Raids "unlock" the templates (Zeixshi`Kar for Helm, etc), or (B) just remove the lockout altogether?
Will likely make changes.
The point was not necessarily to remove the need to PROGRESS through MMM... just to allow you to chose to farm in MMM or Crystalos.
That said we are highly considering adding "or's" to the requirements that will require similar actions to be taken in crystalos (as you mentioned, and we came up with in our own little meeting! http://www.mapfiend.net/eq/images/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif )
