    I get that, but there's literally no replayability except when you're there farming out the new Tomestone that's coming on the 4th. That'd literally be a reason to keep going because you're also getting Tomestones for your other stuff for Savage. Right now there is no real incentive, and after Shadowbringers and them changing the item drops to all, it shows that it's aged quite a bit the past two years. Having a guarantee of some kind like Savage has would be a godsend. Run all four, get an item(or item(s) as people have said given how exchange rates work in XIV for raid tiers) and then it moves on. Considering that the Normal Raids are still new, they're going to still be done even on Normal Mode since it's still fresh. When it starts to age, the wait times might go up a little; but even then there would still be incentive for the weekly tomestones to reiterate, as you'd be killing two birds with one stone mostly.

    We've just been through the same song and dance one too many times already where you have to literally fight tooth and nail to get the piece you need for that floor every week.

    And then you would be failing to do what the developers want you to do: feed the queues despite the lack of necessity for you to run the content. You’d be surprised at how many people would just stop running them for the week if they were guaranteed a drop after their first run. As you said, what would be the point (outside of just enjoying the fights)? None. Weekly tomes is weak since you get plenty more from doing 1 expert 5 days a week, or from doing Hunt trains. So, to prevent that, the drops and your rolls are at the mercy of RNGesus. It’s all working as the devs intended.
