Myth Caps

[Lurkios]

I feel that this particular dead horse hasn't quite got the beating it deserves.

The myth cap was poorly thought out and poorly implemented. There is no reason for it, content is the current cap. There's nowhere to go after coil, and once your turns are up, due to the cap there's nothing you can really do to progress.

Of course you could always:
Work on a crafting/gathering skill: But some of us are just in it for the combat, and that's fine too.
Level another class: aka: Fate grind to 50 over the course of a week or two, throw on the darklight you probably already have and... oh... right..., need myth...

The ideal/correct solution would be to drop the cap entirely. Again, it's pointless. However, if SE feels the need to artificially delay progress, I would suggest it work more like the levequests. Allow me to get 300 myth this week, and if I only manage 275 let me make up the difference next week - up to the maximum 2000. So if I don't play for 7 weeks, I should be able to grind out 2000 myth if I choose to do so. At least then I'm not being punished for going on vacation.

It was well thought out - Sorry you can't get some of the best gear the second you hit 50.

They said they will not drop it nor is it the correct solution just because you want some of the best gear the second you hit 50. They're raising the cap to 450/week, that's an accessory a week or a piece every 2 weeks. ARR is easy mode, yes, but they do need to keep people around with a lack of content.

So if I don't play for 7 weeks, I should be able to grind out 2000 myth if I choose to do so. At least then I'm not being punished for going on vacation.

MMOs normally don't and shouldn't reward people for not playing lol.

Or, you can go on vacation and forget about the game because vacation should be more important. If you plan your vacations around your myth cap then something's wrong.

How is it pointless? So you want everyone to be in near full i90 within a couple weeks? What would be the point of DL? Hell, how is that even progression if they freely hand out top end gear like candy? Anway, they raised the cap to 450 which is completely fair so what you're saying is even more irrelevant. Lastly you not being to get gear/myth for not playing, sounds legit to me.

I wish they drop the cap and you only get like 2-5 myth per dungeon run, that way we can see all the new born whinners again

Here comes 60+ pages of "the color red vs the color green" arguing wonder which side will tire first.

Well, there's 3 people who either didn't read or failed to comprehend.

I don't think you've read. It has been addressed STOP.

All I'm hearing is, "please suit the game to my individual wants". An MMO without a dangling carrot is a dead MMO.

Oh, has it? That's odd, my screen still shows 300. Mind screenshotting yours?

An MMO without a dangling carrot is a dead MMO.

Agreed, however, the dangling carrot should be progression achieved through skill (or in same cases luck) - as it stands that's Titan HM for a lot of folks. An artifical cap that no amount of skill or effort will get you around is not the way to go about it.
