    Why even argue when the OP's suggestion can't affect you negatively in any way?
    You don't do exp trials for optimal currency farming.. you do them for optimal exp farming.

    And it does affect me negatively, since it's yet another storage page that clogs up my mog locker. I won't benefit from it until I've upgraded at least 2 pieces to +2, meaning I have to spent time in less then optimal dynamis areas for forgotten drops. Drops that might require as many as 5-8 runs per equipment piece duoing with a THF, versus the 2 needed for pure exp. (And solo it could be as many as 50 runs.)

    You do realize you have to purchase the slip for it to be in your inventory, and therefore you do have the option to not buy it. You also have the option to dispose of the slip when you don't need it any longer. There is no conceivable way that this idea can negatively impact any player in the game. Just trying to come up with a way to oppose a suggestion that benefits people with absolutely no down side just proves you are of a mindset that needs to be bred out of our player base.

    1. Not everyone has friends who will give up their currency farming to help with af2 +2 augments. Personally I'm working on a relic at the moment, and don't want to give up my currency farming to get exp on my unaugmented af2 +2 pieces for the sole purpose of being able to store them. I also only have 4 days a week available for currency farming, the other 3 I do ADL with my ls.

    2. Why would you even get the storage slip if you only have one single unaugmented af2 +2 piece??

    3. It would be more efficient to farm currency and either use some of it to upgrade to +1 first, and then sell the rest to buy the forgotten items - or sell all of it and buy forgotten items.

    So the Porter Moogle is going to show up at your Mog House and make you buy the storage slip now?

    "Gimme what I want, and no one gets hurt, kupo!"

    I wouldn't use a storage slip for unaugmented Relic +2, but I still understand why other people would want it.
