Best Gear in Coil needs to end

Why should i110/i115 gear or sands/oil drop outside of coil? Give me a convincing reason why people who aren't raiding coil 2 need this gear.

You don't even need it for t6-8.

The new CT tier will also give us the power to make our own raid groups, so we don't have to queue with randoms and possibly jerks.

There's also Novus weapon upgrades, which will hopefully suck less than the FATE and Myth grind that is the Atma/Animus upgrades.

It will b i100

The best gear is pretty much every MMO ever (with a few exceptions at least) has always come from raids...XIV follows the same trend.

Some games do the crafting route or random world drop. There's more than just raid = best gear always.

True, didn't take that into account. But not all of them have been the "best gear" either.

Nothing but Coil and Levi Ex provides any reasonable return for time invested? Maybe?

I'm truly not against the High Allagan gear coming from Coil, I would like alternative methods to acquiring the Sands/Oil for the Weathered Gear however, for BiS reasons. Not every piece of HA is BiS across the board, so it's still a mix and match system depending on what your build is aimed at.

But there should always be an incentive for people who do the high end content, in this case coil, in this case the high allagan gear. Eventually I'll do it as well, my thing is, I don't care about 'world first' crap, so it's not my main motivation. Regardless, it would be nice to continue to progress myself in other ways, in preparation for the next stage of content that does get released.

In before sands oil added to new CT.

I really think making both the new ilvl 110 armor come from coil is a bit....stupid. really if anything we should be allowed to get this through dungeons as before. No one complained before

Just because no one complained doesn't mean it wasn't going to be changed. Most likely reason it worked that way was due to CT being delayed and bridging the gap. But now they don't need to.

You're basically saying you want equivalent gear from non equivalent content.
