If they only capped it at 87.something like I hear, then I'd say it's still worth it to use the PDT axes and ducal guard. A few pet: MDT ones would be nice for swapping in for incoming nukes as well.
The only things that changed are that you don't need a 2nd pdt atma with Dg and you don't have to use shep chain to cap pdt. Right now pdt axes are a great investment.

Don't burn yourself out making these though, they don't do much.
