Can we get a Myth Tome Bank or something?

so im at the point with my Black mage when the gear im wearing is great and the only gear that i do need to rep is with Allagan. I dont like any other job right now so i dont wanna waste the myth on them. I can save up the tomes for future jobs but that means in essence alot of tomes are gonna go to waste as im just doing the content to do it. And since its a gamble to wait on factors like how long a new job will be added, or if i even like that job, can we get something to store the extra myth tomes like a bank that you can only deposit in if you are at capped 2000 myth already? dont see the harm since you still take a long time to cap myth.

That would be a good idea actually if it's not just with Myth,

Give the retainer the ability to store Philo and seals aswell just like Gil and we should be good ( as long as we can store an unlimited amount of these currencies of course ).

Not sure why some people are so thick... but, doesn't that completely defeat the purpose of having a cap (and there is a reason for that cap). You may as well be asking for them to remove the cap, since being able to store more myth than the cap is the same thing....

the whole pont of the cap is so you cant bulk up on them

ok but still to make it fair you should also have to be capped at 2000 philo seals.

it would still take as long to gain those seals why would i need to see seals just fall to the ground for a whole year till they add a new job for me to actually use them.

i mean to deposit them in a bank you would have to be capped at 2k.

Or you can just use them. The system wasn't designed around people like you who won't play more than one of the current jobs.

or if i like the other jobs i would. and 2.0 isnt nearly as good with the whole multi job system as 1.0.

I'm reasonably certain the cap is in place to prevent people from doing exactly what you want to do. They don't want you stockpiling myth tomes for future jobs, or there wouldn't be a cap in the first place.

You either have to suck it up and use them (letting them go to waste on jobs you don't play), or suck it up and not use them (just letting them go completely to waste after you hit the cap). The choice is yours.

Still doesn't change that it wasn't designed for you.

well i guess thats it, let them hit the ground. what a waste.

Im not doing like the OP but i can see how storing Myth would help.
( Using the OP in the following example )

As it is now he doesn't want to play any other job right now and has his Myth capped. He's currently playing at loss since he can't get any more Myth.
What if in few months he finally decides to play another? He will have lost weeks worth of Myth, thing that wouldn't have happened if he was able to store them.

I dont see how this would defeat the cap purpose since he can't get Myth faster than the weekly cap allows him to.

We shouldnt be forced to spend Tomes if we dont want to, to avoid the loss of the incoming ones.

Here is you answer... earn Myth Points, buy gear for other jobs. Put the gear in storage, if you level those jobs later on, take the items out of storage and use them.

Quit asking makers of the game to change a design, put in place to prevent abuse of the point system. It would open up opportunity for gil-farmers/powerlevel services to sell accounts/characters with pre-farmed pools of myth tomes. Or for someone to hoard points, and get it completely geared up instantly for jobs not even released yet (after which I'm sure said people would then complain about lack of stuff to do), and probably more negatives. Caps are in place to put speed bumps on the path to progression which in turns gives you a reason to log in and work toward things each week; This creates prolonged success for the company and game by way of subscriptions over time.

People who are constantly looking to circumvent these mechanisms hurt the game more than help, because when people rush content and stop playing after 3 months, and enough of that happens, and the company/game isn't making money you won't care when you move on to the next game in line for you to rush through, and those of us who love the game and would like to see it succeed get stuck with the results of your short sightedness.

I think it would work if you were able to bank tomes and were still only allowed to use 2000 tomes a week

I had this in mind when i posted.

the whole point of the cap is to create some sort of progression timeline. If you do not like the other jobs currently out then thats on you. Just because you do not like part of hte game's content doesnt mean they have to change a system to fit your needs. I personaly do not like dragoon or SMN but yet i have them both to 50 and fully geared you never know they may change some of hte classes/job mechanics and you may enjoy them.

ok you dont know me so dont act like you do. I didnt b line to the finish of the game i didnt rush. i played all the jobs during 1.0 so they are all 50 here. i dont like the changes they made to most of them, so i dont play them, i hate that summoner is just a doter with a vanity pet that can auto attack, stopped playing that. I just hope that SE can release more jobs so and not like wow which only releases 1 god damn job every new expansion. i usually only play one or 2 hours every other day so thats not an excuse.

Why grind just for the sake of grinding anyway? They want some kind of progression when new jobs come out, not some guy running around as a full i90 blue mage the week it comes out. It would be a better idea to just have some rare crafting items available for purchase with the myths, similar to philos.
