Poetics Dungeon Shops

Assuming Tomestones of Poetics will never leave the game, I want to suggest a feature to give value to them.

Leveling instances (not sure if past Lv51) as we know always grants you an item for your role automatically excluding the instance loot.
Yet, there are the Lv50, Lv60 and Lv70 instances specifically where you simply have to be lucky to get specific dungeon items.

Now, I know tomestone gear and crafted gear > instance gear, but for the sake of glamour, this is quite a nightmareish conquest to keep re-doing an instance just to get a certain item. From my own experience, I did the Neverreap over 18 times just to get my hands on a Baldur Blade for my DRK. (Yes, I know tank queues are fast, not relevant.)

So I figured "What if they let you unlock a shop for each role that specifically sells the equipment from each instance after you've cleared it at least once, for the price of poetics?" Meaning, clear it as any tank, unlock the shop for tank gear that drops in that instance, and clear it as any DPS class to unlock all DPS gear, etc.

The currency that end-game players are almost always capped on, may be put to use for glamour at least and to broaden outfits much further after making gear easier to obtain.

Your thoughts on adding another tomestone of poetics sink?

(Sorry, too long for first post)

Poetics already have a purpose? You buy 50 and 60 gear with them. When the next expansion comes they will probably be used to buy 70 gear... don't really see a reason to change the way the function.

There's a Mentor on my server who known as a "Poetics whore/addict". Shes maxed in every class, yet she still finds a need for them... so...

I like this idea.
It can help people gear up while leveling jobs and help people get more annoying glamour items.
Win-win for me. :B

Yes, they do. And with this suggestion, it adds value. I'm not entirely sure why you would state this in a mocking manner as I am well aware of what they can be used for. You conveniently do not factor in the advantages this would have for glamour purposes, or even to simply use for "catching up" gear once it can be used at higher instance levels as well and you have no other tomestones. Finally, they are not being "changed", they are given additional value due to them being usable in more manners than what you have mentioned.

I surely hope you do not wish to use this statement of a single individual to invalidate the suggestion in its entirety and specifically not consider the advantages at all it can have to everybody else, since that's the kind of vibe I'm getting from you and others who use a single person as example.
