It is a solution but it also caps gear progression in a way that only RNG does now. A lucky person can gear up rather quickly if they get all their drops. Look how long it takes people to gear up via CT and ST. Also, what about items like Oils, Sands and UATs? I don't think it's a good idea to cap it like that.

Could open it up like when 1st Coil went "public" so to speak. But then you'll have the people who can play 24/7 totally geared up by the end of the week. Then they'll unsubscribe till the next Patch.
