    Waiting Restrictions on Quests. ("wait til JP midnight")

    Hi, Never a fan of making "Complaint" threads, But this has been bugging me lately. I guess i actually had the misfortune of leveling ToAU jobs back to back, So i've been coming across the "Thread" issue a lot lately.

    I think a lot/All of the "Wait 2-6 Days to get X item" restrictions need to be lifted. There is no logical purpose for them. Was "Wait until Game Day change" just simply not time consuming enough?

    I never felt we should have to wait up to 24 hours just to continue progression. a Few examples i just wanna bring up.

    Automaton Frames. Everyone of them Requires you to wait til JP Midnight. I know the most common solution to this is to basically wait until before JP midnight to turn it in, But sometimes you don't ding level 10/20 an hour from JP midnight, Sometimes you ding it at 1:00AM JP time and now you're stuck with harlequin frame for another 23hours of uselessness.

    Another Example is crafted AF for COR, BLU, and PUP. I think forcing them to wait til JP midnight to obtain their AF is an uneccessary restriction, They already pay out-the-behind for it. Plus, With Leveling as fast as it is today, It really hinders some progression.

    Yet another Example would be the WHM/BLM automaton head, Which can require up to 5 Days. Nearly 1 Real life week. I feel this personally is absurd, The minimum Waiting period is 2 Real Life days for each. Was it really that broken to make players wait from 48~120 hours to be able not be stuck with a Crappy Mage Frame? was restricting it to level 40+ just not enough?

    Almost no other AF/jobs require such waiting times, There are a few but not many. In most cases one can acquire their AF in a single day/Sitting, Allowing them to continue to focus on EXP.

    I know its at Best a "Minor" inconvenience, but I still feel the idea of being forced to wait days at a time to access content as basic as AF armor or Frames needed to be good at your job is just not right. Reducing

    I Really hate complain threads, I was just wondering if theres any way these Restrictions can be eased in the future? Possibly reduced to "Wait 2-5 Game Days", or "Wait 1 Game day" instead of "Real Life" Days? Its a minor inconvenience, but i feel it should be removes or Eased, as it creates a lot of Restrictions. Especially in regards to Puppet-master Frames/Heads.
