Trade in unwanted primal weapons for tomestones?

[TrystWildkey]

So, with the current system, I can run dungeons that give me tomestones, guaranteeing that I'll eventually get the best gear in the game.

Meanwhile, I'm stuck using a crappy weapon until I can get one via tomestones because the primal weapons are based off luck?

That does not make sense to me.

Agreed 100% lol, have done ifrit more times than I care to mention, and have yet to see one PLD weapon drop. Ah well, at least I'm getting tomes in the process of grinding for a subpar weapon that can net me some awesome gear guaranteed.

I really like this idea OP.

Only if they're tier 1 tomestones.

Wouldn't matter since you cap really quickly on Mythology anyway.

You'll get it eventually... probably. I think I did Ifrit 50 times before seeing the axe drop, and Garuda at least 30. Ended up getting them both in the same day.

At some point farming garuda for tomestones is actually faster than farming AK without even counting the duty finder queue. You can chain kill Garuda in about 7-8 minutes if you run 5 dps for 15 / 7 tomestones. Considering you have to wait 15-60 minutes to even get an AK instance "ready" garuda is definitely faster to grind out.

Well then. How do we get the SE Dev's/mod's to notice this as a suggestion?

Frankly would have prefered that all the dungeons dropped some tomestones. From the very first one to the last one. Though of course a lot less. But still would give you a bit better start through the story.
