so this patch lets say uldah has the shield thats best
next patch its grid
then its uldah again
then limsa

and so on, its not unfair to any 1 group in specific, its just that during any specific timeframe the best item for each slot will be obtainable from somewhere different

everyone will have their best in slots during those times obtainable and during other times itl be another countries turn

Remember the good old days...when the best gear in the game was raid gear...and everyone was able to get it...no one was left out...yah....just like every other MMO on the market...SE has backwards fundamentals on core game design

whenever a game releases an aspect of the game that makes you choose you can run into these issues though

look at other games where you have to choose "light vs dark" or "villian vs hero" or "hoard vs alliance"
one side will always have some advantage in some areas while the other has it in others
and the balance will tip back and forth depending on the day of the week and what is released

in the end, again, its a game and some people take that 1 point of stat someone else may be able to get over them WAY WAY too seriously the way you are doing right now

i don't think the issue is that the item is in another city. the problem is they are trying to get the best gear for the gear setup and tanking style he prefers to use and due to being part of one company instead of another it is impossible. in every mmo i have touched people are always trying to get the best gear. if they weren't then items like relics would have never had a reason to be put in game. they were by far the best items, but they took a long time to get. they were hard to get, but with the companies those certain items are impossible.

did the op go too far on his rant? yes, because we know each company will get stuff in the future. the thing is the future could be after this patch or it could be a year down the road and nobody knows which.

1: GC's are unbalanced

2: just wait SE will fix it

the problem is we shouldnt have to wait for SE to fix it. They should not break things in the first place.

I'm fine with GCs getting certain gear that's better than the others, I think they should just not make it untradable or make it available at 2x the seal cost for other GCs.

btw Licont is a noob.
