How much I hate Job points and the weekend event.

Yeah, I was thinking today whether it would be worth farming for the new crafting torques, then I thought if it's in a non-SoA dungeon then you wont get CP ... this sort of discourages me from planning activities in areas where I don't get CP ... and then I can't decide which job to work on. ;p
It does kind of suck to not get them as you play the game, like you said. Then the grind would be absorbed in other activities.

Like I've said before :

Actually, you do get them while playing the game, just less than farming in gates. A lot of ppl shit on skirmish drop rate but I tend to do skirmish whenever I see /shout because of CP. You also get them in delve and I think dyna too.

Right now you can only get them from mobs lvl 97+ or so, unless that has been changed recently.

Some but not all DC Dynamis mobs are high enough to give CP.

I might be mistaken but I believe they only give 75. While I won't say it's nothing, it's so little you'd need to kill 400 mobs for a single point.
