    So, do the new dungeons drop new gear or not?

    Or did they literally just strip the i90 sets from the Hunt/Mor'Dhona vendors and throw them into content that is geared to be at an iLvl so irrelevant that it would've been ignored as early as the release of 2.2?

    i dont see any new "i90"(suspected ilvl of gear to be dropped from new dungeons), so my guess is Myth gear will drop there just as Philo gear did in 2.2. which is dumb imo. but oh well i suppose

    Darklight still dropped alongside new stuff though, not as the only thing. If myth gear is seriously the only thing that drops in the new dungeons they basically removed the only incentive I had for running them to begin with which was vanity (Not just these, but 4 mans in general)

    I'm rather hoping hunts will grant poetry tomes because dungeons are boring. : \

    If they're the only place that drops them then yeah, I'd be forced to. I won't be running them by choice if that's the case, but because SE sucks at designing content options that are actually relevant for something other than "Hit a weekly cap".

    Can't me more boring than hunts. And at least in a dungeon, I don't have to worry about missing rewards because one person is too impatient. I do hope they actually have some new and useful gear...but honestly my bet is that they'll have some new gear (along with the i90 job gear) but it won't be anything useful compared to Sold gear. Which is too bad, if that ends up being true.

    Soldiery still drops from Hunts, so once Poetics is capped (doing Expert Roulette once a day should get you capped within a week), you can just spam Hunts. OR, just do Syrcus Tower :T

    I mean, why bother doing the dungeons at all if you're getting nothing worthwhile in between?

    Hm ya, this run of dungeons wonder if they did decide to just use the i90 job specific, would be rather lame since the "excuse" is that it takes up so many slots. At least with Darklight you can easily add another set of gear because jobs share the pieces but not with the i90 so maybe that's their reasoning behind it?

    At most I can see additional awards being the following:
    Satasha HM= Tight-beaked Parrot / Nana Bear
    Sunken Temeple HM= Fat Cat / Mummy's Little Mummy
    Snowloak= Littlefoot /Assassin Fry

    So perhaps they decided rather than add in a sense "glamour" gear, since last update the gear was already outdated within said dungeons they decided to add a minion to each dungeon and rather than listen to removing mats from dungeon chest they decided to increase the amount of materials dropped within chest lol.

    Least judging from all items within the game atm, I wouldn't put it past them to add 2 minions to each dungeon, perhaps one gained through final boss and the other through the random chest lying around.
