Even neat side grades that unlock traits on other jobs. Say you have RDM leveled you can unlock magic accuracy bonus. Almost as much as getting all characters to level 99 with limit breakers. Instead of limits breaker quest a new merit breaker quest for each job would unlock.
Agreed, my suggestion would be for SE to close SoA content, only allow passage into Adoulin but nowhere beyond, and revert all new weapons to the damage rating of the Relic of that type temporarily (eg, Bereaver, Senbaak/+1 = 143 dmg), then scrap the current plans and finish launching FFXIV, come August, start work on the SoA reboot, more in line with the original style of the game.
