    The whole argument is dumb, for one, AK hasnt been a 20 minute dungeon since the speed run nerf, its always taken about 30-35 mins with all relic/+1s. They DID raise the amount of myths you can acquire, thats your fault for assuming they meant the cap.

    You arent supposed to be farming full sets of af+1 with myth, youre supposed to be getting ilvl90 gear from the binding coil and using af+1 to fill in the gaps. If you want to take the lazy route and farm AK for months to get the gear, dont cry about how there is no content when you either cant beat titan or wont do the content you're meant to get ilvl90 from. That's like saying i have no food, when really i just dont feel like cooking.

    Not sure if you've actually done Coil yourself yet from what you say in your post. You can only complete a Turn of BCoB once per week. You have to hope the item you're looking for drops. Then you have to hope you win the need/greed lot from anyone who might be competing with you for the drop. Grinding myths for AF2 is the only reliable way to get IL90 gear atm - Allagan gear from Coil is about getting lucky with drops and rolls. People could go months on BCoB without getting any drops.

    Yes, yes i have.. the point is to slow you down so you dont get a full set of ilvl90 gear in a week or 2, then people would complain that there is no content. Also, people wouldnt be able to complain about seeing people in ilvl90 that really shouldnt because of how easy myths are to get.. all you need is some time. Anyone else get annoyed when you see someone in full AF, wp/ak gear with a relic +1?

    In ffxi, there are people who tried for years to get certain items to finish certain sets and never finished them.. every game takes a long time to finish a full dungeon's set unless you have a friend who is a guild leader and gives you everything (coil restrictions prevent this too). This game has been out for 2 months and people are mad they dont have everything? what would be the point of the game if it took no time or effort to do anything?

    If you are competing for drops every week, you are doing it wrong.

    Even then if your trying to maximize your char every slot from coil is not the best, i have seen tons of mages turn down the coil healing body to save up for AF2 healing body

    Wait, AK is a 30 minute dungeon and has been since the speedrun nerf?

    News to me....

    I've been running it well under 30 minutes, and more recently under 25 minutes with Relics.

    As for the rest of your post...bad player is bad. Even assuming you clear Coil through T4 every week, that's only a few rounds of drops which is purely RNG to get your class, more RNG to win the roll, and you can do it once per week. If anything it's designed to run parallel to AF2. You've got a better chance to simply wait 2-3 weeks and buy the AF2.

    As for people with relic+1 and AK/AF gear, that doesn't bother me at all. Probably just another happy customer. My pockets are likely a bit more lined for it. Why would that bother me?
