There shouldn't be a Myth cap because.....

[Amarathval]

there should be no myth cap because If I want to spend my time earning more myth I should be allowed to do so... If you didn't make the token gear equal or near equal in power to the best dropped gear, there would be no need for a cap. which is another thing why is coil gear and myth gear both 90? I can see myth gear being 85-90 and coil gear being 95-100, so you can earn gear to help make coil easier, but the best rewards should always be from doing the hardest content.

@OP.
Seems like you are moving too fast for the game.
Every game company will do this to prolong the game.

Maybe its just that the game doesn't have enough content in endgame to keep players busy?

I'm surprised no one's pointed this out to the OP. Having no myth cap or no coil restriction will not, as you've posted about the tanks you've experienced, help with progression. Sadly this game requires 8 players (I don't count CT) playing relatively well to get past end game content. Even if you were full i90, it would not help your terrible garuda experience, or titan ex experience, twintania, etc...

Honestly, if you were hardcore, you'd be in a linkshell/fc with other hardcore players and already be full i90 at this point and farming end game content.

Myth cap and coil loot restriction is not preventing you from experiencing end game, it's you and who you pick to play with (honestly if you were good you could join ls/fc that is good as well).

Because of all the Timmys.

Companies don't make games like EQ anymore where the gap in gear levels was so colossal between hardcore/skilled players and less-skilled/casual players. It's not good design anyway, the former chew through all content thrown at them unless it's made (sometimes underhandedly) to be unbeatable and the people with less time on their hands feel like the mountain they have to climb to catch up is insurmountable. The lesser-skilled players I really have zero empathy for though. I grew up playing video games that didn't pander to you. You learned to beat them, you talked to friends in the school yard about how far they'd progressed and shares tips, and then maybe after days of trying you'd progress on to the next hurdle and feel like a champ.

Anyway, rambling over. :3

Actually I did say that withouth the cap I would level a tank and learn how to do it, but no sense in doing that if I'm only in DL gear.

This, with the exception of the hardcore comment.. Don't really have to be -hardcore-.

What is even hardcore?

I'd love a job that pays me all the monies, for 1 - 3 hours a week. Sounds like a damn good job lol.

Also, who's to say you can't find a job you actually enjoy doing?

I see the comparison went over your head. Think of it more like punching in and out because everything you needed done is done within a extremely short time frame. So if I were to go with your assumption about money, then you would actually be paying a company 1-3 for a weeks worth of work. I'm sure you are totally okay with that.

people should be happy they have myth gear at all tbh. why SE decided to hand out end-game gear for just spamming WP and AK over and over again is beyond me. the way i see it, myth is exists to: A. appease those who have no desire/time to raid consistently but still want to feel like their character is progressing. B. to fill in gaps in gear and give alternate gearing paths for those that do raid consistently.

its not there so that everyone can feel like special snowflakes and have every job at max ilvl

Read these parts in my post again since you missed them the first time:

@OP.

I think game/content development happens at a certain pace, which definately is too slow for you. Perhaps come back to the game in a few months when it's more polished/has more hard modes etc.

I don't understand why CT and Coil are "gated" the way they are.

If some maniac wants to run Coil 50 times in a week and max out every class in unique/untradeable gear... why not let them?


Sure, you create a large gap between people logging in for the first time, and someone who is leveled 50 across the board with all the best items... but... there's no open world PvP (no griefing) and there is no way to pass those "elite" items to anyone else.

How is this harming anyones gameplay experience again?
