i totally can understand what you are doing there– i have an Arcanist on lvl 60 equiped with ilvl 190 too.

Not as main character but i was so upset losing my carbuncal after switching to the summoner cls,
that i remembered the good old days on Ragnarok Online running around with an 99 Novice just for fun...

so i created an high lvl Arc for farming, gathering, fc events, fates, etc all out of endgamecontent and
really fall in love with it - aaaand i can use my carbuncle without a doubt anytime i want

I like people breaking out of the common, doing something nobody else would do - its just surprising
Giving a shit on the "must have" rota thingy, "rules" for endcontent, an opinions of random guys ingame
i probably will never meet again after an instance or random raid.

Let nobody ever tell you how you "have" to do things or how your class is "intend" to be played... most of
them are just lemmings talking with half-wise stuff they got on community boards without trying it their own way.

Thumbs up for your idea playing it your way - although without friends you will get a really hard time in the endcontent,
i bet there wont be much randoms left which will take you along, without your cls maxed out toolbox, like other said above.

There will be a point you cant go on but hey:

"This is your story"


sincerly yours
Yuna ^^
