Thread: NEW 2.2. Suggestion: make the new limit be based on per class/ job

get your main to the new max of 2.2, spend the rest of your time getting everything else to ilv90+ from the removed cap and lockout of that level. plenty to do, and if it is not enough for you, you clearly have enough time that you shouldn't be playing just one game or you should just level a character for each class like you would have done in every other MMO.

That beats the purpose of having the Armoury system. Genius.

Time isn't an issue afterall. It's about the capability to play all classes in one character.

In any case, SE was the first one to defeat the idea of Armoury System in the first place, by putting lockouts / caps.

Lockouts also defeats the purpose of Armoury System, see my post above.

Main downside I can see is that the position I'm in now, a big chunk of my tomes towards cap from running coils on main, but there's nothing on main I need those tomes for, so they get spent on other classes. If those tomes were locked to main then they'd just build up and never get spent.

Seeing as we're getting a brand new set of tomes I don't see why they shouldn't just abolish the weekly cap now, as they are with the lockouts on Coil 1~5.

Same thing goes for CT while we're at it, I mean hell it's not even i90 gear.

You don't need full BiS gear to run endgame on a class... The armory system works fine. You can be T5 viable on a class in 2 weeks between EX Primal weps and accessories, CT gear, myth gear, and early Coil turns. All that would happen if it were per job is people would gear everything out and whine still. NO lockout would be worse.

This isnt about higher caps but individual caps for every class. I cap myths every week because if I don't I will fall behind. Imagine feeling obligated to cap myths on several classes. Its too much of a time investment. Some of us don't want to play 8 hours a day.
