Current BiS will still be important after Patch 2.2

How 10 lower?? We are moving forward and i90 is current. So how would adding a new i90 in tomes and crafting (giving 4 i90 sets) be moving forward? Coil and myth will be full unlock/uncap so ..... not adding up sorry

Darklight = Crafting = 70
So myth gear is new entry so myth = new crafting = 90
Coil is +20 entry so 110.
CT is between so 100.

There is only ONE new tome. Uno. Myth replaces philo as its unlocked. He said before in an interview where there's be a new tome ( singular ) available in new dungeons and Coil 6-9. I believe it was where he originally talked about Glamours and their JP name.

Right my question is why are you assuming new crafted is i90? We have 2 full sets of gear already which can be viewed as similar to ak gear before the hm and Sirius. Your basic i60 gear is now i90. Meaning your first time and crafted would be a step up.


Granted I realize we are all speculating. Just thought process digging at this point.

Right my question is why are you assuming new crafted is i90?

Philosophy purchased gear is i70.
Philosophy crafted gear is i70.

Mythology purchased gear is i90.
Mythology crafted gear is i level... Hmm, what WOULD it be, considering the evidence?

Your assuming the new baseline is i90. I'm assuming its not. Myth being uncapped doesn't mean its the new philo. I am trying to locate where I read Yoshi day 2 new tomes. Which then would mean Myth is not the new Philo.

Uncapped Myth = Unlimited supply instead of being locked out a week = What you can do with Philo as of now = When new crafted gear comes out it will also be i90 because why would stuff you buy with MYTHOLOGY (i90) tomes be less than i90?

Myth being uncapped does mean it's the new philo, much like philo is the standard for starter gear of vanilla content i90 myth and/or crafted will be the standard for 2.2 content, i.e Coil 6-9..so how is it any different from Philo at that point?

The live letter at end of January he said there would be one...so...I'd also like to know where you seen him say two.

Q15: Please tell us the difficulty and average item level needed to participate in Amdapor Township dungeon.

A15: It will be more difficult than the dungeons added in patch 2.1. We are planning to add a new type of Allagan tomestone, so it will be a difficulty on par for that. On the other hand, there has been feedback that Pharos Sirius is too difficult, so we will be making adjustments.

it is going to be the new baseline, for top tier raiders, as it will be the easiest high level gear and most likely the minimum for turns 6-9.

and crafted might be prioritized because of the reasons why people sometimes pass up darklight: melds. you have more options because of materia.

[Balfreid]

New 2.2 Coil gear > Your ilvl 90 set
New crafted ilvl90 gear (Can be penta melded)> Your ilvl 90 set

Easy peesy. Dont need a wall of text to figure that out.

[SchalaZeal]

You also all forgot the (probably) i110 relics. Confirmed that relic will continue to level with us, and not just become nothing.
