Most likely reduced to 450, only reason we got 900 was because people kept asking for more poetics so that they coudl gear up for 3.0 and SE decided to increase the cap. At first they had no plans to increase the cap but I guess they figured since there would be gear that will easily trump the poetic gear as players leveled up, they decided to just offer a slight increase in cap to give players more of a chance to gear up before the expansion hit.

Tomestones of Law are gonna be like Tomestones of Philosophy (Tomestones of Soldiery I suppose if you didn't play back during 2.0's launch) and will be available at the start of EA. Tomestones of Esoterics will be released alongside Alexander Savage, 4 weeks after launch (which will be 2 weeks after Alexander Normal).

As others have posted, I'm also inclined to believe the Esoteric cap will be reduced to 450 (or they'll double the maximum limit and double the amount of tomestones one can acquire via dungeons/raids - effectively halving if as well).

We will see once they release it.

Thanks for the info. Nice to know that I won't have to rush to cap.

i wonder, will be able to exchange poetics for the law tombs or no?

I'm guessing soldiery to poetics at 3.0, and maybe poetics to law around 3.1.

Gah.

Absolutely *hate* "1 item per run per week" caps.

Hate.

Doubtful.

Games with currency either give you the next down or money.

Like wow originally made tier 2 emblems/badges/points into tier 1 when a new set came out, and tier 1 to gold.

Then they got rid of them entirely.

most likely reduced back down to 450 it was only upped to 900 so people could gain equipment faster but not out blitz though before heavens ward, if it stays at 900 then the prices would be doubled to match. and none wants that

After servers come back up, regardless if you bought hs expansion or not:

Tomestones of Soldiery will not exist anymore. (You can trade your old ones for Poetics)
Tomestones of Poetics will not have any weekly cap anymore.
Tomestones of Law (probably) won't have any weekly cap as well, but it's very likely you have to reach lv60 before earning any.


Since the dozens of lv50 dungeons we have right now will not give exp (they have confirmed this), if you didn't buy the expansion you will not have access to level 51+ areas nor dungeons, so chances are you will have to level up to 60 by FATE grinding in Mohr Donna or by (god forbid) 1st room farm Aurum Vale.


There's no evidence to support that people that did not buy the expansion will be locked out of leveling to 60 or won't be able to get new tomestones.
Granted it will be much more tedious for them to level up and earn tomestones, but I strongly believe they will be able to.

So even if you don't have early access, you'll probably be able to start leveling to 51+ during the early access period after servers have been updated.
