Please consider adding ilvl Aegis and Ochain

[Shiyo]

Do you want to pay 100m per to make them have ilvl? They're already absurdly powerful without ilvl, and MANDATORY to play paladin, but I found that ok because they're so easy to obtain and get and you don't need to spend 100m on them like a normal relic/emp.

However if they do this you'll need to ;/ It'd suck HORRIBLY for new players/paladins.

You don't need to spend any gil on anything. You can farm it, or you can farm other things to sell and exchange for the items required. This is what gives the game purpose. Saying they should not upgrade something based on the fact it would be expensive to just buy it all outright does not seem like a good argument. You do not need to be geared to the max to participate in events, you may not be geared to participate in VD mode, D, or N, but that is why they placed in VE and E for many events. Just because it would take a new player a large amount of effort to catch up to completely endgame is also a terrible argument.
