Should Tomestone of Esoterics still have a weekly cap?

[Ayerinn]

I haven't capped in a month and I've had way more fun with the game since. Capping is such a chore.

^ pretty much this - I hate capping currency in games...*hate* scrips too, sigh. You don't realize how much you dislike something until you don't worry about it...or remember what it is like to play a game that has no currency to cap on a weekly basis (GW2 is an example.)

[Kemonologist]

Doesn't it also mean that is doesn't have "high quality stats"?

Yes, pink gear always have same stat with non-HQ white with random secondary. It's can't beat i200 blue in main stat even it have more ilevel. Same with i115 NQ white can't beat i100 blue gear.

Are you sure?

No he's not. What he's saying is not true. Aetherial gear has HQ gear stats.

[Dante_V]

Aetherial Gear has HQ primaries and random secondaries.

As far as the cap, I don't care either way. Been getting gear from savage. With the exploratory missions and void ark added into the mix you should have no issues gearing another class. And honestly by this point you should pretty much have 2 classes almost already geared with esos depending on if they share main stat accessories.

"Pink" just mean: Stats are random. Nothing else.

this is wrong pink gear is HQ primary stats with random secondary stats. it has always been that way.

excuse me, no it hasn't the pink gear has always been the same stats as HQ, and some of it even better. some of the pink gear can be worn 1 to 3 levels below it's ilvl(for below lvl 60 that is) and has the same primary stats as the HQ

this just makes me wonder how many of you have tried telling people to upgrade to HQ of the same gear when someone is wearing a full set of pink gear. the downside to the pink gear is it can't be melded. that would be the only real reason to change over to HQ of the exact same gear.

Of course it's going to have a weekly cap, the 24 man raid rewards have always been there for catch up/glamour purposes, it would be carnage in there on Tuesday if you could roll on everything.

my solution would be to make it so you can lot 1 piece every 12 or 24 hours. 1 piece every 12 hours would be nice but it would be more likely SE would agree to 1 piece every 24 hours. and that is of course IF SE agreed to anything

The game says:

"This system is here so you can level up, gear, and play any job you want"
"This system says you can only gear ONE job well for a 6 month 8 month period"

It doesn't work based on the core concept.

ilevel 200 from eso and void
ilevel 210 from void (upgrade items) and Alex savage and airship exploration (that one uncapped with only 2 hours cooldown and dropluck)

Already enough ilevel 200-210 gears to gear up jobs well (you can do alex savage already in ilevel 200).

Armory system had even during 1.0 never been about gearing up. If the armory system something need, then the remove of the skill sharing restrictions (at least on classes).

"This system says you can only gear ONE job well for a 6 month 8 month period"

Coming in 3.1 I intend to gear my SCH in the Void Ark i200, while my SMN gets the i210 eso upgrades, both could get Thordan weapons. I could theoretically raid with both at that point. And I can probably already do much of the non-Savage content with SCH already (at i179).

With 3.2 I'm expecting that I could make 2 sets of gear, for SCH and SMN, pentameld them, and have something raid-worthy for both. If I was richer and somehow wanting to play 12 classes, I could do that for every job. But I'd probably be better off making 12 characters on 12 servers and raiding 12 times a week if that was the case.
