Yoshida on Tomestone changes!

[KiriA500]

Don't mistake my opinions as simply trying to bar players from accessing content, CT was supposed to provide gear to do BC and Myth gear are supposed to be an alternative to that but at the cost of being slow and tedious.

This does not limit new players to content but allowing them to get top level gear easier and faster certainly does us no good.

Yes, CT will provide players with gear that is lower tiered than coil loot, which is totally fine. Increasing the tome limit doesn't spit in the face of players who capped out at 300 every week, because you're also allowed to hit that 450 limit, still putting you ahead of them. All this does is allow for more tomes to be acquired at one time. Everybody wins.

Players who farmed AK pre 2.1 for Mythology will take 1 month longer than players in 2.1 for 5/5 Mythology gear

a 1 month difference is rather significant

I just feel that highest tiered gears should not be easily and quickly attainable, it should require significant amount of time and effort invested into it.

This stuff is the highest tiered for now. Thank god this game isn't following the way FFXI did gear and making this stuff the best stuff ever for years to come. We haven't even seen a level increase yet. Players who farmed tomes pre 2.1 will still be ahead of players who farm after 2.1, because they already have their items they bought. Instead of taking 3 weeks to buy a body piece, it'll now take 2, across the board.

You also make it sound like farming the same dungeon for an extra week makes that gear so much harder to obtain... You beat Amdapor Keep 8 times. You can't honestly consider this an accomplishment worth complaining about...

You're looking at it from an individual's perspective. Sure, everyone wins, everyone can get highest tiered gear easily and quickly but should that be the case?

Myth gear will be highest tiered for at least 3 months after 2.1 and probably longer till BC gets expanded.

You can save up your tomes to gear up other classes. This game is built around playing multiple classes.

Yes you can and I agree that it'd be faster and easier to do so, but is this game about getting highest tiered gear for all classes easily and quickly?

Myth gear isn't a requirement to do CT but it is the current ultimate gear to look forward to (besides Allagan) it shouldn't be easy to attain.

Well, this community has a thing for equating time to difficulty, so I understand why you're so hung up on this concept. Myth gear is NOT hard to get, because all you have to do is run a dungeon designed for ilevel 60 items to get it. It is time consuming though, because the body piece alone requires at least 3 weeks worth of capping your tomes to get...but that still doesn't mean it's not easy as hell to get, so don't kid yourself.

They don't make you look epic so they don't count
