How is using common sense "stupid" /.../
spend the tomes

being forced to spend tomes on stuff you don't give a shit is stupid.

So we're just back to the "skip the books as much as possible" reasoning again? You cannot save up the books/tomes ahead of time. What is stopping you from planning the path out before you even start, then following that plan?
It all comes back down to time. You want to rapidfire the books without the time spent getting the currency to buy them between completions.

.

spending 3month farming atmas for over 2h/days and still not get done?

Wow, so many people are okay with all these artificial restrictions. And btw you can express your opinion without the mean gifs and sarcasam but I guess some people need e-ego boost.

Anyway, I agree with the OP. I know that SE use the cap to slow progression down, but I don't agree with it. If I have the time and effort to save up on myths then I should be allowed to do so. And people who are saying that run out of content for that - what? there are so many jobs and weapons to make, you'd run out of weapons to make much after when myths no longer exsist.

the OP didn't say he can't spend 1 minute to sell materials, he said that spending myths because of virtual cap and not because he really want those materials - is stupid. And I agree with him.

This is the same as putting a cap on gil. Gil is also used for progression. Yet if SE did so people would make a fuss, so they renamed it to "tomes" to shut people up (which seems to be super effective as people even defend it LOL).

I could understand putting a cap on the latest tomes, but everything in this game is capped, and with the amount of white knights this game have, doesn't look like that will change ever lol

It's a suggestion for improvement. Again, rehashing workarounds he's already aware of doesn't discredit the possibility to update the cap based on how quickly people get myth now.

then what does it matter what the cap is at? If he's aware that the cap and therefore the only solution is to spend them but has nothing to spend them on then what does it matter if they sit at 2k? According to you it's super easy to get now anyway so the point is moot as to what the cap sits at.

Wasted effort.

Now a question for you, as the animus quest has been covered as being irrelevant (as in no one has yet answered how this could be exploited) what exact harm could raising the myth cap do?

[Legacy_Wolfwood]

For who just log to do duty roullete and only play weekends is hard... i don't have enough time to upgrade my weapon and remove the total 2000 cap don't will hurt you or the entire community.

then you can spend your myth....

just spend 150/300/450/600 on mats to sell and stay around 1500

you buy a 1500 myth book, you have to do everything in it. if your play time is limited as you say, then by the time you finish your book you will have the myth for your next one -.-

Wasted effort.

the only thing i could see SE want to prevent is 2.4 rou/nin released with someone prepared.
relic
relic zenith (900 myth)
pre farmed 12 atmas
15000 myth for the 9 books and the start up of the novus quest *the only part that can really be controlled by myth cap to slow the speed process)
pre farmed 75 alexandrites.


also for everyone... the possible event the next relic line uses myth.

oh and lastly. when myth is phased out like phil. remaining myth would be converted to soldery. so a mass amount of soldery would be cray cray

It's been covered already, should they raise the cap people would just hoard them if they continue to use myth tomes as token payment for items/gear and that would create the problems obtaining items/gear faster than they anticipate. Never underestimate that an MMO is based on making money to keep you playing longer is in their best interest.

All I see on these forums are a bunch of single minded cry babies who can't appreciate what is given to them because they are stuck in this mind set that there's only one way to enjoy a game. Be it with a very specific want in their play style or whatever, but keep this in mind, while you may feel constricted to a certain preference when playing their game, the "meat and potatoes" of the game remains consistently middle ground for the benefit of all variations of play styles of the players.
