Increase poetic's cap

Yes please! It feels like I'm constantly at cap, even with buying full sets of 60 gear for every class I'm leveling right now (which is almost all of them) and trying to spend them whenever I realize I'm at cap. I've probably had hundreds if not thousands of poetics fall on the floor because I didn't realize I'd already hit 2k again...

Oh, gods, yes. Especially that new jobs start 20 levels below the cap so that's 2 expansions worth of poetics gear you have to buy if you weren't saving up (I still need to re-farm Alexander for aiming gear for DNC)

Mostly for the oddballs who don’t have the latest expansion.

For everyone else I don’t see why it matters either way. You tend to level so fast that old tome gear winds up becoming obsolete after a few hours anyway. And there’s nothing preventing you from buying the sets piecemeal ahead of time if you know you might be leveling something new in the future.

I've deliberately allowed them to stay capped from time to time when plowing through roulettes because I just couldn't be bothered. I typically do a currency check before queueing into content and would get frustrated to see that they were capped yet again. So before I can queue, I'm off to IIdylshire to get more grade 3 soil for the gardens. It just gets a bit tedious after a while. I definitely wouldn't mind if they at least doubled the cap. Hell, even 3k would be nice.

I just turn them all in for demicrystals for vendor trash when I go to pick up a new copy of Wondrous Tails. Already got a full set of Augmented Shire gear for Gunbreaker.

In my case, anima weapons.
Having sat on 2000 poetics for months, Ive just decided to go back and complete a new Anima weapon, which requires thousands of poetics.

Am I the only one who read this as sarcasm? Guess so, based on the other responses.

No, I'm pretty sure everybody read it as sarcastic.

Yeah, I already have all the shire gear I could ever want for any class I'm leveling, including the ones that aren't even 50 yet. I could easily have it all augmented well before I need it, cap or no, and this is all after augmenting the monk gear, buying the monk/caster/tank sets, and getting all the way up to the last step of the anima questline. All the cap does is send me running back to the vendors more often than I would otherwise. :P
