    At the same time, new Tomes and Buyable iLvl 90 gear make Myth gear obsolete Vanity items. CT won't be the only thing to take a hit.

    Even if it's only i80, CT gear tends to look pretty cool so people will want the pieces for vanity. I feel an immense sense of satisfaction when I look at my Paladin in armour of light gear.

    And I also see a lot of folks running it with HQ craftable items to spirit bond for materia.

    I think CT will still be a popular dungeon even after the patch.

    At least with 2.2 there will be very little reason to do CT at all

    I think each instance will have people for it (or is intended to.) Fresh level 50 players have the Main Story roulette (and low level roulette if they want), when they are more geared they have CT and Hard Duty Roulette (or/and WP and AK farm), later Coil (and Extremes if they want), and later the Second Coil. There are new players who freshly reach level 50 all the time. More so when PS4 version is launched.

    It seems to me the changes will be good. Now WP is quite easier than AK, so I suppose lots of people do WP and few AK (and AK is needed for the relic quest, if not, even less people would be there.) With easier AK and Pharos Sirius it is more likely people will choose Hard Duty roulette, and players will be more evenly distributed among instances, with less queue problems. Or, if you don't want the roulette, you can at least farm AK and WP and not just WP. CT is a good alternative for a change, not too stressful (but a bit a lottery game depending on the party you end) and it gives loot on top of tomes, so if ilvl 80 loot is good for you, it's worth it.

    CT is now a deprecated dungeon (it is now 'worth' significantly less) and is, at best, a myth tomestone and off-class gear farming area with the added 'flavor' of having to deal with two other groups you have to trust to do their job.

    Just about everyone has a stupidly-easy job to do except, perhaps, the healers trying to cope with all the willy-nilly damage being suffered by everyone at times on top of making sure their tanks are healthy enough to run around and pretend they're doing something useful (only 3 tanks are ever actually *tanking*, and that's the most of it).

    Well CT was already hard for me to get any gear, now it will just be a nightmare.
    I mainly did use it as a source to cap on myth really

    Well, you can need or greed only the items you don't already have. Up to now, many things dropped to the floor because people were saving their weekly loot for that one or two items they really wanted first. Now, if you want the body, but legs drop, you can need them anyway. Next time you won't be able to. Someone else may greed.

    What is probable is everyone will greed everything available, unless it's for a class they are sure they will never decide to level up. You never know if you will level it later, and having gear to use just when you reach level 50 is very nice. I think it will be a good place to get gear for your future or actual alts if the one you want for now doesn't drop. Up to now, the big amounts of philo tomes you got while farming myth were spent many times with that goal.
