Tomestones cap needs to be raised a month before next patch

[Istaru]

Really dont have a problem with the cap. When 4.2 comes out it will be at 2000 cap so you can just gear up your other jobs at that time while everyone is running the new content.

They want the cap increased do they have something of value to do now.

Your statement is 100% true, but kinda misses the mark on why they wanted it increased.

[Istaru]

^ you are missing the point entirely. Yes he might feel bored of login in to cap tomes... But what about levelling other classes? What about learning other stuff like crafting? Or collect stuff like mounts? Or maybe experience Gold Sauce? Or maybe engage in learning PvP?

His argument died when he complaint there's no reason for him to log in but to JUST cap tomes when CLEARLY he hasn't even bothered with what other stuff the game provides.

For people like that , our requests go nowhere.

What is your request? Go do things that you don’t enjoy for reasons???

How do you know if you like , shall we say, crafting when HE HASN'T EVE BOTHERED giving it a go?

It's like those morons that go around saying " I don't like this game cause it looks boring " but hasn't even tried it?

People who can't be bothered about trying everything that this game provides has NO RIGHT to complaint that there's not much to do. As simple as that. Get that in your head and don't reply for the sake of replying thanks.

I actually wanted to know what your beef was, and you stated it. Thank you.

With that being said.

I think you are being very rude and mean spirited and it’s uncalled for. Nobody attacked you, no need to be a raging {bad words removed}.

I think things are bit light right now on what to do too.

I think a temporary increase in caps would give more people things to do and may be worth considering.

I’m bored with content at the moment and there really isn’t anything that excites me.

I’ll save you some trouble.

I am omni 70.

Before it went down, the minion and mount tracking site had me as top 20 in the world and #1 for my server.
I am #2 on my server for achievement points.
I have over 5,000 HQ crafts for all 8 categories.
I have cleared about 7,000 FATEs and Dungeons each.
I have completed over 1,000 PVP matches.
I have a rank 5 racing chocobo.

I could go on, but I think I made my point in that I have met your requirements of being able to post feedback of lack of interesting things to do.

Am I allowed to state that I’m a bit bored now without being attacked?

(And a little bit burnt out too if I’m bring honest)

No, I’m not going to quit or stop posting here if I wish to.

I was here long before you and I’ll still be here long after you leave.

Personally, I think we should be mature, like your name, rather than continue to be whatever this is.

Why are you so hostile and rude? I agree with OP. With savage unlocked they should unlock other things towards the end of a patch. You can go look at my account too and see that I have leveled more things than OP but still have the same opinion. I dont bother much with capping tombstones now because I wont get everything I need before 4.2. so I don't stress about logging as much. I want to gear up other jobs while I wait in the new patch. I may want to main something different in 4.2. but with tombstones and the 24 man locked I might was well wait until 4.2 drops.

Oh I agree with the OP too in some sense. But I will NOT tolerate them kind of posts where people moan about something JUST for the sake of it (specially with a character like that) Having not done ... Much in game?
Ps:btw I'm not talking about the OP , I'm talking about the individual that had the audacity to complaint about "there\\'s not reason to log in the game to just CAP times" when his character shows the total opposite.

What is the reason we still have a cap of 450 which gets you nothing that week except accessories? Even savage loot is unlocked
Please change this for the next cycle. Raising the cap 1 month before cap would bring and keep people subscribed. Please consider it Yoshida, 450 cap is not keeping more people subscribed by then

It seems it wouldn't actually do much at present. Most people I know barely even bother capping the 450 each week these days.

Think I've got the full 450 once in the last 3 months. Every other week it's usually around 200-300.

A lot of people I know are the same. The gear they got now is good enough for everything they do. And 4.2 will just add a new tier anyway. Can't even tell you the last time I did an expert roulette

[Jijifli]

The fact that they have to resort to limiting the amount of tomestones you can get per week, just to keep people subscribed to their game, is what bothers me the most. Few things scream "bad game design" more than this.

So you'd rather remove the limit then? So instead of doing 5 experts a week you can do more experts a week? I mean, you already could, if you wanted to that badly.

The weekly cap is there so that you don't have to play 24/7 to keep up. If you want to do away with Tomestones entirely, we could do what WoW did where you farm enemies until you get a shiny legendary and hope it's the one that actually helps you instead of being a useless item, specially when it gets harder and harder to get pieces the more you get. Would you rather that?

If you can't find a reason to play the game, don't play it right now. Wait for the new content. Nobody's gonna kill you over a break.

They've said it before why raising the cap is never gonna happen. People will just burn themselves out faster. Also for the people complaining about nothing to do, Yoshi P answered that question himself in a Q&A stating "Bored? Make more relic weapons!" to something of that effect. :P

It seems it wouldn't actually do much at present. Most people I know barely even bother capping the 450 each week these days.

While I'm in the same boat as you, I'm in that boat precisely because the cap exists in the first place. Despite having all jobs at 70, and most jobs at 60 as far back as Midas tier, it takes nearly the whole tier to save up enough Tomestones to gear up 2 non-compatible jobs. And don't get me started on Savage/hunting and the weekly 24-man drop for upgrades. So... I don't bother with Tomestones once I have my job geared. I just ignore the other 14 jobs (since my job, DRG, doesn't share with anything on left side).

The weekly cap is there so that you don't have to play 24/7 to keep up.

Even if the weekly cap was abolished, there would still be an upper limit in place for each tier. You would, therefore, not have to play 24/7 to keep up - the difference is you could actually play as much or as little as you wanted on your own time, instead of constantly being forced to work on Square's schedule.

Further, the weekly cap hurts people that are coming back from breaks or that may wish to take a break towards the start of a cycle for whatever reason. They have no options of catching/keeping up, because that weekly cap doesn't roll over. Something's come up and you can't play for a week (or more)? Tough cookies, enjoy being behind everyone else.

Not that being behind is terribly relevant unless you're trying to raid or something, but it - like several other things - just sits in opposition to Square's reasoning for them being in place.

If you can't find a reason to play the game, don't play it right now. Wait for the new content. Nobody's gonna kill you over a break.

People can pay for 6 months of service in advance. If Square's inability to keep them engaged results in them having nothing to do for extended periods for those 6 months, I think it's fair to expect them to complain. And to start questioning why they're subbing to begin with, discount or no.
