The new Ilvl

[Merle]

I at least like the idea that SE wants to make us do some actual hard content for the gear.

And I'm really ok with it........... but the RNG...................

We now know that the Leviathan weapons are i100, but it is indeed curious what Mog will drop

Mmm...

Garuda->Rings
Titan-> Earrings
Ifrit -> Bracelets
Leviathan->Weapons

I guess Good King Moggle Mog will drop chokers

I envision cute moogle earrings and chokers made of moogle fur

Is what people were arguing FOR about 4 months ago? I think. I see the future of the game possibly being like Se getting us hooked initially with easy to obtain gear, then mixing that with some long term goals to keep us playing for years. Im fine with that.

Yup, I agree. The rate at which we get (or rather do not get) healer loot has been alarming throughout the history of our coiling so I am not really holding my breath to be decked in 110, even if I were to assume we'll start clearing t6 and beyond soon into the patch. (Which is of course the goal as we've all beaten t5 and are waiting for this patch). But at least it means my static will get stronger overall, even if it is not me getting the drops. We shall see. ;x

Well, since i don't have a FC with enough members to do coil, i have to rely on pugs ("get another FC" is not a vaild argument) i've been doing T1 as monk for 4 months trying to get Allagan trousers of Striking. Most of the times i was the only MNK in the party, so it would be a 100% chance to get it. Never. Saw. One.

4 months laters (this monday) i had to join as PLD to fill the party. Our melee was a monk... do you guess what gear it dropped on T1? Bingo!

is this really just "bad luck"? Are you really ok with this system? RNG is ok, but this kind of "RNG" is ridiculous...

I know i'll get a full ilvl 110 Monk in about 4 months with no Allagan2 gear (kinda sad, it looks awesome). I don't have any hopes about coil drops...

Not if only Allagan2 is i110.

Q13: Will the item level be the same for equipment obtained from the Second Binding Coil of Bahamut and the equipment you can obtain with Allagan tomestones of soldiery?

A13: The item levels will not be necessarily be the same.

For me, this doesnt say that all items from t6-9 will have a higher item lvl then the new tomestones, it says that not all item lvls are equal.

No you won't. Yoshi said the Tome gear is a lesser ilvl than Allagan gear this time around...

Aw... true... thanks for making me sad ; ;

I've been looking at it the same way... i think the initial gear grind is to get us at a level where players will be at an acceptable end game level when they start adding long term goals for players that want to obtain the uniqueness that they desire.
