After running Castrum for 40 hours, which is completely insane to expect players to do, and yes I know there are other ways to earn tomes but lets be honest non are as efficient as running Castrum in either time or tomes gained, I had already felt my desire to play FFXIV waning. However, I pushed on Chimera, Hydra, and Garuda rekindled the desire and I once again started crafting/gathering/leveling other jobs/and running AK. It was the last thing that did in the game for me. I realized that even if I capped out the tomes each week for AK It would take me around 4 months to get my Valor set. I had to ask myself if I could grind jobs/castrum for another 50 hours per job for my DL set/ and AK again for 4 more months if I ever wanted to switch jobs. I understand why they put caps in. I get that they dont want players to burn through content to fast but asking players to run AK for 4 months is insanity.
