please provide a way to opt out of pip conservation
This is one of those things that seem like a good idea, but for a lot of players it's a headache.
Most of us try for a full set of power pips, and to suddenly have a white pip taking up the space where a power pip should be is annoying.
And then we have to make sure we have 1 pip stuff we can cast to get rid of it.
We could just not use the gear with pip conservation on it, but we need the stat boosts.
Please impliment a way for players that don't want to be forced to deal with single pips to opt out of pip conservation - a setting on the account would be one solution, a setting on each piece of gear would be another.

Pip conserve also turns white pips into power pips if your bar is full. Using a spell that gives pips also does the same. I also don't really know of any content that you need exactly 14 pips for.

This is true.
For example if you have 74% pip conversion you have a chance of turning your white pips into power pips, but this is only once you have 7 pips total.
Thus, if you have 7 pips it might take a while for one to convert to a power pip unless you have good conversion %.
But also you could just use a spell the following turn that costs you 1 or 3 pips and then you will be able to earn a power pip the following turn and by then it wouldn't really matter.

Do you also avoid arc 3 and 4 Decks that give a bonus pip for this same reason? It seems awfully inconvenient to not be able to use a 7-pip AoE attack on the second turn.

I'm gonna be honest, I don't think this is a feature that needs to be added, but I guess if you're going for something specific it would make some peoples lives easier. Just a very few though. I rarely see anyone going for max pips on purpose these days, almost no point.
