Simplify Mythic obtainment.

The largest issue really depends on which side on the economical scale you fall into. If you've enough gil or time to make gil that you could make enough to obtain 30,000 Alexandrite in under 120~150 days then starting from scratch you'd find Assaults to be the much larger set back. For all repeat Mythic makers and for those without said mad stacks of cash, the Alexandrite seems to be the majority issue. For me personally I look at Assaults as the more annoying hill to climb, I could make 5M a day(500 Alex) from Dynamis alone, not counting the 250~300 Alex from dual runs between 2 characters. That leaves me at around 800 a day from 2 events, that's less than 2 a month and a half for a finished Mythic, on the other hand the Assaults I'd have to do really kill my motivation because I flat out hate the content and the time sink it requires me to suffer through. Look at me a year ago though and I'd have said Alexandrite were the largest issue because at the time I thought Assaults would be something I'd just do and not care or wouldn't take much of my time. In either case, both Assaults and Alexandrite suck as requirements how they currently are.

Well time is money. Though I kinda wonder how you are making 5 mil a day? ADL spam cause that's not soloing? Now let's look at the numbers 800 a day comes out to 37.5 days but you say it takes 2.5 months suggesting that your farm style isn't that easy to maintain. Probably the whole dedicating 5.5 hours a day to just farming for 1 requirement of 1 thing. Now I'll agree assualts are super easy and boring but that can also be a good thing. Even soloing alot of them only take like 10-15 min. If you can farm for 5 hours a day farming for one thing you can spend 15 minutes doing something really boring. Now let's look at total hours. You farm gil faster than most but even at that your alex farm takes over 200 play hours while assaults will take less than 20 total and as a side bonus nets you the AP needed for those salvage farms

The 5M is from 2 Dyna runs at roughly 320~330 AC each, averaging 110 of each kinda piece, which overall on Phoenix is roughly 5M total. In either case the 2 runs at Salvage and 2 runs at Dyna are around 6 hours, but even so I'm doing 6 hours of work each day for a month and a half and I only say that because yes I might skip some days or be too busy, so on. But for Assaults I have to do them every few days over and over and when they're so mind numbingly boring I just can't stand them. At least with Salvage I have to try to kill gears to at least some extent and in Dyna I have to try to proc, but in Assaults most of them are just boring and fairly dumb like Lost & Found where I'm doing nothing but running around for 10 minutes.

I wasn't meaning to say that Alex takes less overall times, but tbh I much rather farm Alex & Gil than do Assaults just because it provides more challenge and entertainment than any of the Assaults do. Either way it might be a preference thing but I really hate them more than the Alexandrite and it's what's keeping me from finishing my Murgleis at this point. If they made Assaults more 'easily' doable, I'd finish it with no problem, but the only adjustments I could see doing what I'm wanting are a removal of the tag limits or something along those lines so I could just do it and get it over with in only 2~3 days rather than coming back every 4~5 again and again to do them as I have to now.
