FFXIVARR Lower stats for token items

Personally, if the token bought items aren't the same stats as dropped items then I'll have little interest in them. Who isn't out for best in slot? I know I am. I'd rather they up the token price and just give me the same items I wasn't as lucky as the next player to receive.

Honestly, it all depends if the dungeons are actually fun or not -- FF rarely has "fun" dungeons but the ones that do are actually pretty creative. I found Nyzul in XI fun because while you had the same 5 or so objective sets, they weren't always the same every run -- it switches things up and keeps it interesting even if you get screwed out on drops on the boss floor. Assaults were probably the best system SE did for XI since while you can (rarely) get gear from the assault themselves you built up your points to buy the sought after gear (75 cap) -- this took a month due to cooldown on tags used to enter Assault.

If SE does something similar it won't take long at all to get gear either through drop or through purchasing.

This. Like people have said. You don't trade in your 40 vortex totems and get a gimped garuda weapon. So why would you get gimped gear? I'd much rather they simply increase the token cost on the main drops.

As I said in another topic. The token system is supposed to be a back up plan. a sort of oh you didn't get your dark light piece but here's a token that ensures you're at least a little closer towards obtaining that piece of darklight.
