    Any word on the future of philo tomestones?

    As the title says, I'm wondering if anything has been said about future philo items. Like a few people that's been playing since the start, I have 0 use for them outside of mats that almost aren't even worth the effort selling. I was thinking that if they haven't thought of it already, for SE to give us something else to spend them on, not gear, but maybe some kind of buff scrolls or something since pretty much all content spews em out. Any thoughts?

    Maybe they should add a system where you can donate them to your FC or GC in exchange for FC credits or guild bux. Not talking about transferring tomes to other players, or for Gil, or anything else like that. Just a simple conversion of tomes to credits , like 2000 tomes = 200 FC credits. Or whatever. Like you said, they're pretty much worthless anyway.

    They could let people pool it in an FC fund for buying tracts of land for housing. Then when individual housing comes out they can let players make a "down payment" of 2000 philo (and maybe some myth and the new tome too) on a piece of land, but we'd have to pay additional philo to unlock the plot so we can build an actual house. For that matter, housing materials and furniture bought with philo wouldn't be bad.

    Make the tickets to get into the eventual Golden Saucer bought by philo. And/or use Philo for the games inside.

    This sounds like a great idea. Especially using it for games. Maybe not directly, but have a philo to 'gp' conversion thingy.

    I could go with 2000 = 200 myth = 20 whatever the next will be and so on.

    Commendations.
    If I play dps I only give it out to other dps.
    If I play tank I only give it out to healers.
    If I play healer I only give it out to tank.

    Only if they should be getting a commendation.
    There are always exceptions to the rules!

    I agree with converting up at a rate of say 20 philosophy to 1 mythology.
