item level 115 gear

[Kazamoto]

I'll just wait until next year and get my i200 armor

Brace yourselves for ilvl 9999 gear.

Please look forward to it.

Side note, why would they ever need to update the level cap, if the gear keeps climbing like this?

Gear is already 40-45 levels higher than the characters at this point.

So lets say they up the level cap to 75, or 100 today.

They would still be wearing the I95 gear, but people would be bitching about having to 'grind' the exp.

Yoshi mentioned that the level cap would go up in the future. But iLevels should only outpace actual levels by 5ish until you hit your final level cap.

FFXI took ages to get to a lv99 cap. And only once the cap had increased to its final amount, did Ilevel gear start coming out.

If iLevel 110+ gear comes from this next patch, what would be the point in increasing the character level at that point?

For that matter, why did we have to level to 50 in the first place? Why not just give us all abilities at lv1 and base progression on gear.
