armory system useless? Mythology Cap

[Casper]

If you are so leet and hardcore i guess you are farming 4 first turn of coil each week right ?

This means 6 pieces of gear each week for 8 people, or 0.75 a week. At about 600 average mytho per piece, this amount to 450 more mytho per week available.

So you can reach up to 750 mytho-equivalent gear per week. Thus, it won't take 28 weeks, but 0.4 * 28 = about 11 weeks to fully gear a job. Assuming coil turn 6 is released in about 6 month, you will be well on your way to gearing your third job by then. Now take into account that some gear is split for multiple job (jewelry and belt AF2, and gear allagan), and you may have what ? 4 job completely geared by then ? 5 ? If they up the cap with 2.1 you will have even more gear opportunities -- if not, at least you will have level 80 gear available too. Oh and let's not forget turn 5 will be more doable once 2.1 is here, so there will be that too.

I really fail to see the problem.

Of course, if you are not clearing all 4 turn of coil every week, then it is longer. But then, you are not getting all the 90 gear you can every week, so how can you complain that you get too little per week ?

What kind idealistic world do you live in where the coil drops are never wasted? Either getting drops for job not present ,constantly getting for the same job/person or getting repeat drops that appeared last runs.

Sadly for multiple weeks we have been getting nearly 50% drg drops and 30% blm drops when we dont have a drg in our pt and our blm has to pass on gear because he already got the allagan peice because it dropped the weeks before. Healer gear and tank gear is the rarest drops.

Have you not done coil yourself and choose to talk about how easy it is to get geared via coil. Even if you didn't do coil you would know that it seems certains peices drop more then others such as book drops from primals.
