Please stop making Eureka

EDIT : Ok, let's do this.

• Protean Crystal : 30 Tomestones of Mendacity
• Anemos Crystal : 100 Tomestones of Mendacity
• Pagos Crystal : 150 Tomestones of Mendacity
• Frozen Crystal : 500 Tomestones of Mendacity
• Pazuzu feather added to Gift of the Archmagus
• Louhi Ice obtainable from a lvl 60 equivalent of Gift of the Archmagus

Total cost of a full set (Anemos Armor + Pagos weapon) for one job : between 210500 (+five weeks) and 227000 Tomestones of Mendacity.
Would you do that relic ?

Have you ever heard of balance ? Cause yeah pull big number out of your ass doesn't make them "what the devs would do" fact.

from memory it would be divided by ten at least.

The Umbrite step alone cost 24000 tomestones. One step of one item. You're way below the cost of a 6 step weapon and 5 pieces of armor each with 3 steps.

That's 757 hours of nonstop dungeon grinding. Even with 8 hours grinding every day, you will not finish the weapon within 3 months. So no, I would not do this. But in general I prefer tomestone grinding over Eureka, even when that means it takes longer to finish the weapon. But your numbers aren't reasonable.

Ok, so at half the cost, you would only need 378 hours of dungeons, I guess. So, 1.5 months of 8h/day grinding for the full set up to Pagos at 86k tomestones (57250 for the weapon alone). Fun fact, the whole Zodiac cost 23800 tomestones-of-whatever-was-uncapped-at-the-time, the whole Anima was (at worst) 67000 tomestones-of-whatever-was-uncapped-at-the-time, so almost three times the cost. With the same inflation, a full Eureka weapon (only the weapon) would end at 190k tomestones.

The main difference is that tome cost was, most of the time, the intended way to buy the items for the Zodiac and the Anima, and not an "alternate but slower way". This time, the primary way should still be Eureka, so the tome cost can't be so cheap that it's faster.
