    B: Idiots locking out victims (we have a thread about it, did you read it? )

    C: It's easy to post when you're part of a core group for coil, running every turn every week. Try to be kicked out of that core group, then post again. Good luck with random pugs

    D: As you said, a worthy player may desire to get a ilvl95 weapon. So relic weapon, do all those server raids (chimera, hydra), beat all elementals (titan , wasting days to find a good group) was just a waste of time?

    The consequence of D, as you can easily imagine will be: noone will run his relic hassle anymore, garuda weapon, 500k gil to a group with 95 weapon selling runs, and you're done (DL armor+ garuda is more than enough , when you know what to do on twintania and everyone is wearing a lvl95 weapon, skilled on that fight )

    Can you see now how the game turns to junk?
    Alright i'll try to answer all this.
    A: Yes this might happen, people might even sell the run, i wonder which weapon you can get through that method(*hint* starts with r lol)..
    Yes i don't like that it's possible to sell gear/runs like that, but that's hardly on topic.
    Also not that many people have killed it right now. Not to mention that you can sell 1 weapon-run a week(if it even drops so there's a feasibility problem with the whole concept right there, who'd buy a *CHANCE* for an insane amount) at most so... yeah people will be gearing their fc(will take a big while lol) and then some might sell.

    B: Actually haven't so please do link if you don't mind.

    C: Well, coil T5 definitely shouldn't be pugged right now that's pretty obvious. Sorry for being redundant but get a FC for that.

    D: You need relic to even go into coil(complete the quest anyway), and why do you even need the ilvl 95 right now? When we get content that actually requires something like that(2.2 prob), i bet it'll be waaay easier to get(if their current philosophy is any indicator of the future).

    Also and probably most important Allagan weapon is already BIS to some classes(at least).
    So at its current state all that you have described would still be possible.
    You may have presented some valid issues but they're hardly connected to the increase in ilvl , and its only 5 increase not even THAT much!

    b: http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/t...il-priviledges

    c: as you can read on that thread, people pugs. Skip the part they do it for troll purposes. Still may happen to need a guy for turn 5. If i have a guy on one of the JP LS i'm in (good news, my FC is my 3 slot bank, LS are enough to organize a coil run ) , experienced willing to give it a try, i invite him.
    I'm not the douchebag of the day, mind me
    Life is so strange, that backup guy performed better than the core one. Curious huh?

    D:Relic, correct. Not +1. aka 3 weeks of myth wasted. You got the point?

    Looking forward to content where that allagan 95 makes the difference

    E: from when this thread turned from "we need a clarification about what yoshi meant with "gear" to "Which Tier Teon plays, he's a troll asking his relic+1 on par, he's the only one on this planet, being a douche"

    God if it's ridiculous this e community
    A, B , C: I got the points you said, people getting screwed , possibility of exploit through sale(which i said is highly unlikely and a bit unfeasible in my eyes at least).
    Alas ,as i also am repeating, all of this (which again i believe should be addressed in some ways, some of it at least) is not a problem fabricated through the insertion of allagan ilvl 95, its a problem already HERE.

    D: Yeah well since we're talking 2.1 its 2 weeks now but hardly makes a difference to my point.

    E: I actually believe you're concerned with making the game a better experience etc, that's why I'm having this discussion.(Dunno if that was targeted at me or not)

    I got your points as well. I merely told you that your points are all invalid, cause none of your scenarios will happen anytime soon if at all.

    So the only thing that really stuck in my head was you QQing for Relic+1 getting upped to itemlvl95 as well, cause you think it is comparable to beating Twintania...and sorry...it's not...not even close.

    It's sad that people actually do that. They are just being plain assholes.

    Doesn't change the fact that Relic+1 is not an accomplishment and shouldn't be itemlvl95 all of a sudden, just cause Allagan weaps are getting upped in 2.1.

    PS: One thing that also makes it hard for me to believe that this is a common issue(the dragging innocent people to Turn 5 thing) is...I actually play on the same Server as the OP in that thread...and I don't wanna talk shit about other people but this particular one is an obnoxious loud mouth that prolly put it on himself. I actually did part of his first Relic Quest with him in the group (did Chimera, Hydra and Ifrit with him) and I rarely came across a person that is more annoying and selfish/dumb as he was. Not to mention that all the way to Titan he was wearing itemlvl 45-50 gear...which didn't help his cause to not come across as a selfish prick wanting to be carried.

    Belive me or not, it's even widespreading on other servers. I saw friends invited on a pug for coil 3 and 4 (and 5) on other servers, and group leaving at beginning ,locking him out.

    Sad, isn't it.

    I don't know that guy hehe, but the issue is real, we don't know which turn we are getting until it begins and it's too late.We can talk about this topic on that thread linked

    I want to belive my myth armor and my relic +1 wasn't a pure waste of weeks, while i should just have farmed coil 24/7 No, it wasn't a pure comparation of difficulty per se, i'm sorry if the point was misinterpreted

    Let's hope my scenario will be a far nightmare (RMT sellers already laughing, much more if the price will truly be 5 mil for a bough run)

    Yup. 900 myth wasted. I should have bough myth pants, if i knew relic+1 was going to be 90 crap. 90 gear will comes from other content during 2.1
    Q57: You can obtain weapons for the hard mode primal battles, but what kind of rewards will there be for the extreme-modes?

    A57: When you clear extreme-modes for Ifrit, Garuda, and Titan, you'll be able to obtain an item level 90 weapon as a reward. We've prepared weapons for each job.
    aka a common weapon, on par with a primal extreme weapon on DF. one more reason to save us the hassle to upgrade the relic (or even do it at all? ) . No thanks

    p.s. i was one of the first worldwide doing relic server raids, grouping with JP players led by me, the guy organizing those runs (chimera, hydra) and members asking why the hell i was doing those raids and what was the reward, let's not mention eng players with 0 idea of what a relic quest was ( Good old days )
    Mind me, i group with JP players, and nowadays nearly everyone eng on Ifrit moved out during free transfer
