I'm not sure if it really solves anything. When Blue first launched, the manastone was the common drop. There were still lines, and Penoy farmed like 40 of the things.
I don't like /list but I'd prefer the drop rate to be as close to classic as possible.

But once green launches they will no longer hold the same prestige that they have in the past as rare unobtainable artifacts, half the server or more will have them.

Yeah sure, these items had no prestige on Blue either. I sold a manastone for next to nothing, and my DE had a Guise (although it turned out that was useful because the illusion buff would still boost faction for some reason).
Time does crazy things. I couldn't believe how much manastones were going for a year or two later after I sold mine. Admittedly, Blue received a surge of players who never had a chance to obtain those items once the server gained some popularity and word of mouth started to spread.
Green's not going to have this huge influx of players come into the game after the legacy items are removed, so it'll be interesting to see how things play out compare to Blue. Of course there will be people who start on Green late, but for the most part people who care about this stuff are going to know about the launch of Green and they'll be able to obtain these items themselves.
