    They need to add more diversity in post 50 content before worrying about giving our characters additional traits that we are free to select from. Couldn't imagine doing AK and WP (FATE is not even on the radar) to earn merits. Basically, there needs to be an endgame deserving of these merits before we get them. BC is not cutting it.

    Any system that gives permanent bonuses to characters will just become another roadblock to raiding.
    "Binding Coils Turn 10, must have at least capped Merit Point stats bonus"

    Character progression is about gear at the end game. And gear comes from content---supposedly.
    So instead of such "Alternative Advancement" system, just add real content.

    We will always run out of content to do. A merrit system gives us something to do when that happens. I don't care how much content you add, it runs out. Or there are times of the day when you just can't do said content and a merit system would be a good use of what time you do have.

    No, OP wants them called "merrits".

    good idea but shouldn't they wait to implement this at lv.99, cause that is what yoshi wants the lv. cap to go to 99.

    You're assuming people will only touch the merit system after they've exhausted all content?

    More likely, they will strive to cap all their battle-related merit rewards first, and then exhaust all content.
