Mostly starting this topic to see how many people think the current trial for 95 empyrean weapons is fine as is, and how many think it's a pile of crap.
I personally fall in the latter opinion. The trial would be fine if HMP's were a common drop off most of the VW system or even other systems, but as it stands, only the very bored and very rich even bother with this trial. As you can see in the census released in early July, very few of the empyrean weapons made are 95 or above.

SE either needs to seriously up the supply of HMPs, or lower the amount required from 1500 to something in the realm of sanity, say 300 or 150. Prices on Siren at the moment range from 110k to 130k per HMP, that's 165 to 195 million gil for a single trial that only gives you a few base damage and 2 STR/DEX/ect.
Anyway, I hate to add to the constant sea of complaints around here but it's just really frustrating to not be able to finish any trials past 90 for empyreans/WoE. Since WoE is dead content there's no supply of dice or residue besides from those who started to collect them and gave up and are now selling them.
