There is getting to be alot of level 50 weapons

Are weapon levels going to be reworked in 2.0? I mean there's quite a few to choose from, wont they become obsolete?

New weapons are the bait on the fishhook, tempting players to keep playing.

it'll be like FFXI basically, it's to show how much dedication a person did to get a certain item. ex: getting excalibur when there is other weapons like durandal and joysuse

I really like the fact that there are multiple options to pursue in end-game. It may get varied for lower levels, but everyone should hit max sooner or later, so it's nice to have incentive to keep playing the class.

Seems like the wrong time to add Relic Weapons in general..

Really? But I thought everyone had every job to 50 and was running out of stuff to do because LOLEASYCONTENT or something or other.

Them hardcore players should be REJOICING.

They're apparently going to be upgradeable in the future to so why not release them.

yeah its not like them being 50 now wont turn into them upgrading to 60 later and so on

Yes, the upgradeable feature of relic weapons means that they'll never fall far behind the high tier items, even in the face of rising level caps. It's a pretty neat idea.

They will continue to release more and more powerful weapons and more and more difficult content to use them on.

I think we will continue to see a slow power ramp up on lvl 50 content until the cap is broken. Then things will plateau off again until the next cap is reach.. and we will see a ramp up there as well.

The difference between lvl 49 and lvl 51 is gonna be huge as far as gear is concerned, that is for certain.

Yea, its kinda funny, when you go from 49 to 50 you get like 10xs more powerful.

I'd like to see more mid range stuff too, but with how quickly you can blast through to 50, it seems like it would be a futile effort.

My hope is that they fix this problem...maybe right now its ok...but with 2.0 I think they need to rework the levels and the pace to get to each level...I would like to think that everything we have at lvl 50 now get scaled to what ever lvl cap they may have in mind...I might be in the minority here but I hate looking at all my lvl 50 stuff and it just seems all endgame when they really not...but w/e...this is SE world, I just play in it...

This would not be a problem if it was easier for gear to "leave" the game via NPCing (which is not really worth it as there is no such thing as soulbound gear) and sharding/DE (which can't be done quickly and efficiently because of how materia assimilation works).

the pace will at 2.0 doesnt need to be different

the pace when we get a cap raise does

im still 100% behind my idea that we need 200k exp to go from 50-51, and 300k to go to 52, and 400k to go to 53, up til we need about 500k per level and then it should slow again around there

cuz how much you can get per hour right now at those higher ranges is pure rediculousness
