If you've already played through the storyline content and are on the gearmill, you might as well not even play, because none it will matter once the level cap raises.
Yes, but it matters now. The expansion is still probably six months away. Just because all the level 50 gear will be obsolete eventually doesn't make it worthless. Even if you won't need it tomorrow you still need it today.
There's a sliding scale of "Is it worth the work?"
Some gear like the I-90 gear is so easy to get, that you might as well as soon as you ding 50 regardless of what might be coming later. However, something you have to sink in 50, 100+ hours... then you have to stop and ask yourself "is it really worth it to put this much work into something I'll chuck hours into the expansion?"
The harder the thing is to get, the less it is going to be worth it to grind up to get it once the expansion is out unless you really enjoy the grinding to get the item, then you'll probably do it for the fun factor.
But... hearing some of the people in this thread, some of them are just plain NOT having fun doing 100+ hours of work into one singular item. Can't blame them TBH. I can understand some challenge, I can understand some grind, but 100 hours for one item is way over the top.
