Can we try... In 5.0..

Can we try not having a weekly tomestone cap in 5.0? At least for one patch cycle? Please? Pretty Please?

They'd just replace it with a system that does something similar to tomestones cap. I'd put money on it, any day, any time.

We will. The first set of tomes will be uncapped, just like the first set of 2.0 and 3.0 tomes :D

If this were the case, many people would be very nearly decked out in the complete base tome gear (barring the weapons) for at least their main jobs within the first day or two. For better or worse, SE probably won't do this, because otherwise it would give those players less incentive to keep logging in.

I guess we can uncap tomestones, but in exchange, tomestones will be obtained through harsh rng to limit people from progressing too quickly.

And? Let the no lifers have no life. They're the minority of the playerbase. And when they've done so and complain about nothing to do, we will not feel sorry for them.

Adding support for no tome cap. Stop trying to limit me SE. Let me play the way I want to play.

Another system that might work is have different tomes based on role so you can gear multiple roles. A tank cap, a dps cap, and a heal cap. If you cap your main job tomes, you'd have to play Tank or Heals to get more tomes. That is only a good thing.

Square will never change the formula because to them its wildly successful. I mean everyone here is still playing and loves it right? If not they'd have unsubscribed long ago. Or at least that is probably how they see it.

No lifers used to be able to constantly work toward their progression. Any time that system was used in xiv tho it has been met with pushback.

No one wants rng. But that's how things would be without a weekly lockout.
