i... couldnt agree more...LOL at people complaining about casual gamers getting ilvl 90 gear AND in the same threat complaining that 6 chests per week for 8 people is bad. How about running molten core for a year to get 40 people geared, when people got 1-2 drops per boss for 40 people not 8. Better yet the days of EQ when entire server had to compete for a boss kill that spawned once per week for entire server. You think you are hardcore gamer? You are an elitist scrub. Hardcore is eve online were your alliance can loose $50,000 in a 30 minute battle. FFXIV is a casual mmo for casual gamers, being "hardcore" in FFXIV is like being hardcore in riding a 5 year olds tricycle.
respect to you sir
I find it amusing people are worried about people getting the AF2 gear so quickly when it takes 5 months to gear out one class. By the time you gear out two classes, I'm sure they would have put in enough content updates where even better gear will be out, and by the 3rd or 4th job, they will probably have a hug content update and/or expansion out, making all of this gear outdated and eventually worthless. Kind of makes the idea of having multiple classes pointless though, as you will have average gear (dark light is essentially entry level gear, think justice points in WoW) for anything but your main for a very long time. In theory, if there was only AF2, why would anyone want someone in their group to come as an alt-job when their gear is going to be weeks behind?

I'd rather each Job had it's own cap where you would have to do content on said Job to earn the points (like exp!). This means the people that play multiple jobs can keep them all evenly geared should they choose to dedicate the time for it.
Getting the 300 cap is annoying enough already, especially for people who don't do coil. Doing it on every job (72 AK runs btw) would be horrendous.
Its funny I think of myself as pretty Casual (only playing a few hours each week) and i'm not even 50 yet. Elites (I hope its not offensive, I just mean the word opposite to casuals) should not have such a "sky is falling" mentality, us casuals won't be geared soon with or without the cap raise.there was no mention of increasing the cap, only a mention of increasing the amount u gain per clear of something. I.E Ak now gives 60 myths per clear instead of 40. IMO myth cap should never increase, i don't like the idea of casuals running around in welfare ilvl90. Tome gear should never exist in the first place.
Having to run AK only is a different issue entirely but it doesn't change the fact that only the real dedicated will gear all their jobs.
PLEASE GOD LET ONE Of "several bugs" BE THE SERVER DELAY
You realize in like one month there will be hard modes and extreme primals right?
Why are people so upset over something so fleeting?
