    Darklight still dropped alongside new stuff though, not as the only thing. If myth gear is seriously the only thing that drops in the new dungeons they basically removed the only incentive I had for running them to begin with which was vanity (Not just these, but 4 mans in general)

    You'll still run them for tomestones.

    If they're the only place that drops them then yeah, I'd be forced to. I won't be running them by choice if that's the case, but because SE sucks at designing content options that are actually relevant for something other than "Hit a weekly cap".

    Soldiery still drops from Hunts, so once Poetics is capped (doing Expert Roulette once a day should get you capped within a week), you can just spam Hunts. OR, just do Syrcus Tower :T

    I mean, why bother doing the dungeons at all if you're getting nothing worthwhile in between?

    not everyone does the dungeons. i usually sign in after reset and cap tomes entirely off of hunts, leaving the rest of the week free to do whatever else like crafting and gathering. if the hunts are especially busy in the morning, i could be capped on tomes in just a few hours while also having a stack of seals to spend, also chances at bloody logs. With the frequency that the crafting mats dropped at in hullbreaker, tam tara, and stone vigil, i really had no incentive myself to continue running the dungeons.

    Same thing here, now this may be a balmung thing but when i can get 5-800 seals in the course of capping my tomes, why not? Hell, hunts essentially have a higher return then capping out via dungeons. Yes, I could just sell the mats, but the last time i looked at the cost of sherry or water the price was like 1-25 gil.... so it really wasnt all that worth while

    Yes, yes please.... I mean hell that battle made me thirsty :P

    but in all seriousness, as much as I hate the hunt system with a passion. Ill take hunts over a pointless dungeon and dull dungeon and no worthwhile drops.
