    There shouldn't be a Myth cap because.....

    I'm tired of waiting.

    I know that SE put the cap to keep it from the ends of the spectrum from getting too far apart, but seriously, I have so much free time right now.

    I don't think that hardcore players should be held back just because of someone that has to work all week and isn't even going to hit the cap anyways.

    I actually feel that more people will quit from the frustration of waiting for gear due to cap, than just getting everything they need and moving on to the next job.

    Also, Coil should be allowed to be done once a week per job. Tired of going through coil and not getting anything. I mean, you can go through CT as many times a week until you get what you want, why not Coil?

    *EDIT* Since people don't actually read each page.

    I would be more than happy to not raise the cap if they would make Coil just like CT. Make it a one item per week type dungeon instead of one run and you are done, drop or no drop.

    Yes, I know that eliminating the cap would create a large group of i90 people running around not knowing their job, but that is what FCs, vote kicking, and Party Finder are for. Eliminate the trash players and find good ones.

    SE is backwarrd people who only play one job are already all lv90 but it take weeks to get lv90.
    i play 3 jobs pld, mnk, whm so im going to be left behind.

    they just need to add actual content to gain said items like relic quest had something more then a simple drop, not a stupid lazy time buffer to extend how long it takes. time sink =/= content or fun

    Free time =/= Hardcore, I work all week at a demanding full time job and cap my myth with ease (as do many, many other players) so your point is invalid regarding that issue. They are not going to remove the gating on the top tier gear, end of story. In addition I'll take gating any day over RNG and random pop timers, does anyone really miss getting up at 3am to camp HMN only to lose to whoever has the greatest new claim-bot?

    Perhaps you should level up and gear a tank job to show them how to do this as it's so easy? This would also serve to fill some of your ample free time that you stated you have. You cannot blame other players for failure to obtain new items and progress in content, there are several paths of gear progression and even though you can not kit out your job with BiS in a week does not mean you cannot have several serviceable jobs available. I have two coil capable jobs and I'm working on a 3rd, as we are on the same server I know there are several FC's out there you can join that will help make this happen.

    Good for you for being a hardcore player. Good thing I didn't say that your type wouldn't cap. I'm talking about the people that have a life. The ones that log in for an hour, every other day. The ones that aren't even 50. Why should us hardcore gamers be held back by their lives?

    you act like your the only person with a job in the world, hate to break the new to you, your gated + have to wait for a rng so you lose two times. SE allowing you to play 4 times a month is even worse.
    i can get my relics with no restrictions just requires doing stuff thats how a game is supposed to be. gameare not supposed to make you sit idle for 6 days.

    removing the cap means nothing no one is forcing you to sit and and play 24/7

    Hardcore is simply playing a lot... In that sense, I am one.

    I'm also tired of all the lockouts... I'm not heavy on progression (dragoon and scholar are my best geared jobs, on item level 80), but I'd like to not feel punished for playing the game on its strength and having a lot of jobs.

    I would, if I had the Myths to gear it up. Not going to waste my precision Coil loot on a third job.

    The time I work on myth is about an hour a day. One run through coil, one or two CT depending on luck and our FC does daily maps or double maps every other day. Myth was capped on Thursday with very little effort. They've eased up quite a bit and you can obtain a Zenith relic in two weeks if one desired which shaved off 33% of the wait. The rest of our time we work on other jobs or saving money for housing. It's easy enough to progress without being "hardcore"
