How that would be a reward? If the gear didnt make any difference for the clear. Even if you consider that a reward, is that it?

You know you aren't fooling anyone, right?

You want something to stand around in Orgrimarr Limsa and impress the "scrubs" to show how uber you are.

It needs to be more?

Isn't the sense of accomplishment enough? If not, maybe look elsewhere lol.

You realize this would just make RMT week 1 clears a bigger thing right, making your shiny accomplishment worthless because people just bought it.

That's irrelevant as the effort is not required by the content.

It's like leveling. You could put in more effort to level faster, but that's not a good enough reason to give you a special reward for being world first to level cap.

It's your choice to put in the effort, not a requirement of the content.

Imagine gear you didn't already have, being used as a reward for clearing content in this game. Crazy stuff, will never catch on.

That's not my point. Getting gear EARLY is not a reward because at the end everyone will have the same reward which is the gear. My point is, getting the clear in a specific time frame should be rewarded which currently is not. What is rewarded with gear is just clearing, be week 1 or week 56.

Right. You did the same fight, so you get the same reward. Good talk

Anyone that cares about clearing early is already clearing early. Extra rewards for doing so is irrelevant, neither is it going to convince any significant amount of people to try raiding earlier that weren't already. Feast has shiny time-exclusive rewards; yet season after season its generally the same similar faces on the leaderboard. Besides, you get the benefits of being done & bis with the tier way faster than others who might have to spend months progging the fights whereas you get all that extra free time. You also get the benefit of knowing you didn't need gear to clear the fight, where a giant amount of the raiding base needs said gear in order to clear the dps checks.

Besides, with its current difficulty savage shouldn't be getting any time exclusive rewards; even week 1 ain't hard enough to warrant it (Perhaps Shiva being the sole exception). If any fights should get early clear rewards, it should be ultimates only.

If you want an actual tangible early reward you can flex, go clear an Ultimate <2-3 weeks after its released. then you can have a nice title & weapon to afk in Limsa with for a few months.

You are 100% correct. The content can be cleared with minimum effort and any other effort is indeed irrelevant. What I would like to see is that extra amount of effort to be rewarded, which makes that extra effort not irrelevant.

Yup, so we go back to my original post.
