imo we were never in the current situation ever before. people always say BUT MYTH WAS THE SAME back then. IT WAS NOT guys. myth gear didnt require 1000 tomes to buy the weapon you got it without any tomes for killing all 3 ex mode primals. yes the myth gear was job exclusive too.

the biggest difference? myth gear DIDNT REQUIRE A UPGRADE on top of it beeing class specific gear. it was on the same ilvl as coil gear was the second you bought a piece you were done with that atleast. yes currently those upgrades are blocked by savage but we all know come 3.1 this will change like it always had and having to upgrade each piece per job is twice as much work as before to do for the same reward.

they did a good job at adjusting the weapon costs and removing that bs allagan stone which would only drop from A3 and force everyone on rav weapons till probaly 3.1 weapons are FINE currently. since they were always job only. they reduced price of weapons from 1300 to 990 which is a good pricetag given the most important gear slot.

now for armors. what they should have done was not to raise the weekly cap. all that would do is create more need for farming tomes per week which is not causal friendly which is probaly what they had in mind when they set that cap too.

what they should have done instead was too adjust the armor prices the same way the weapon was adjusted. lowring the price by about 25% like they did it with the weapons. that would have been ok given its gear only for one job. THIS DOES NOT HOLD TRUE for ACCS. only armor should be cheaper. accs are still no job unique items.

for now i am happy ill be able to get that awesome looking drk weapon within 10 days from now without having to clear A3 savage for it -.- would have hated it to be stuck with ravana weapons till nearly 3.1 probaly when relic is coming and will be likely i210 anyway.
