    Please eliminate day wait from Elite Training regimes

    I know the wind resist +1 I got on my throwing weapon is terribly gamebreaking, but would the devs consisider changing the timer on elite training regimes from 1 real life day to 1 vanadiel day? I don't see any reason to maintain this restriction given how limited the augments are.

    I just prefer to do content in a much more focussed way, so if I am augmenting gear I want to do a bunch at once, not one per day....

    Given that players would still be restricted by tabs it doesn't seem like it would upset balance too much to make this more accessible.

    - add higher chapters for lvl76-99 gears
    - add alternative chapters where you trade an augmented item and get back base item (share same restriction)
    - to balance it raise chapter prices

    Both of these are fantastic ideas and I've been wanting them ever since pre-abyssea. It would definitly bring utility to older zones and give me something to spend my tabs on other than hp/home nation warping. If both of these suggestions where done I would totally augment almost every item I own that isn't already augmented by trial of the magians or rare/ex.

    Wait, people still do these?

    In all seriousness, the wait really shouldn't be so long. I didn't actually know it was 1 real day. 1 Vana'day seems fine to me.

    There's a lot of content in the game, like this, that I don't even get into... not because the rewards are lackluster, but because of the artificial restrictions they tack on. It's not like these augmented items can be RMT exploited.

    Yeah, I was bored at like 3 am PST and thought "hey it would be fun to do some random augments" - forgetting that this restriction existed. Then I did my throwing weapon (OOOH +1 wind resist) and went to do another one and got the message about needing to wait "1 earth day"...

    Pretty lame.

    That's not lame. Two years back, I was with a friend and we just randomly decided to do elite training out of boredom and curiosity and that's how I ended up with my Light Staff with Charm resist +1. Meant a lot to me too. I was using up until I got ousted and patronized cause I refused to do the cure potent staff. =\

    Stays in my mog sack and don't really touch it anymore.

    Unless you're solo, Charm resist is potentially a bad thing, because if it's an AoE charm and lots of people get charmed, you might get eaten alive if you uncharm before everyone else.
