    Should CT have dropped lvl75 items?

    I notice that CT is by far and wide the most popular instance now, in both PF and general chats. Judging by its ease of clearing, I have to wonder if the rewards are too high. If the gear was scaled down to lvl 75, (making it slightly better than Darklight), then this seems a little more appropriate.

    Considering this is easier than Pharos Sirus/Copperbell in my opinion which drops 60 item.

    No. This is the perfect in-between upgrade for DL and then Myth/Allagan. And with a loot-lockout it is not easy to obtain a full-set.

    If it's popular, it's because it probably drops 200 philo stones and 50 myth stones, so people like to spam it for that as well.

    Pretty much what he said. The fact you can only get 1 piece a week is a big enough nerf.

    for ilvl 80 drops all you have to deal with in CT is "in-progress" fishers, newbs/noobs who can't co ordinate in boss fights, unstable servers, trolls and SE's legendary RNG. I think ilvl 80 is appropriate given the circumstances.

    The gear may be i80, but the itemization on many pieces leaves a lot to be desired. For example, there's not a single point of accuracy on the entire Crimson (BLM/SMN) set. I think it's fine as is.

    Maybe you should have another look at the body.

    The constant displays of immaturity and no lifeness among members of your alliance as they spout bad strategies, screw up, then blame each other, makes it totally justifiable it as a level 80 source.

    I work on my main job myth gear, Work on my 2nd job CT work on my 3rd job Dark light.


    Also with different sets of gear gives different jobs for the people that play numbers.

    No ACC on this item doesn't matter if you already hit acc cap.
