FFXIVARR Lower stats for token items

[Skies]

Also I am not really sure why are you guys thinking that the tokens are somehow the greater reward?

Like, imagine like this: 3 assured drops per run in each party, one-week lockout timer per player.
That's how the drop system is. You are rewarded for your hard work, AND you luck. If you're not lucky enough to get the item you just keep trying and you will eventually get it in a reasonable timeframe.

On top of that, there is a thing you earn anyway so you don't feel like you're doing something for nothing, while not somehow decreasing the amount of work required to acquire any specific item.

3 assured drops, but at no point in time have they stated it would be 3 pieces of darklight dropping. in fact they've stated they aren't going to raise the drop rate on darklight a few times.

they have also not stated you would have a 1 week lockout. they stated you could lot on up to 3 pieces of gear a week. whether that's all 3 pieces that drops in a single run or 1 piece in 3 different runs in the same piece of content.

reasonable time frame is up to the individual person that wants it. some may say they want it 1st completion or it's not reasonable and some may find running it hundreds of times is reasonable.
