Once you start giving out the Carbontwines

[Taei]

Can you also let us upgrade the WoD items to i130 please? It will just give us that many more choices to play around with without really breaking the game.

[Antanias]

This sounds like a viable suggestion

Tbh >_> It'd be a whole lot better if they had made WoD gear i125, so you have an option between upgrading ironworks and dreadwyrm. Kind of hope they go that direction later on. Kinda defeats the purpose of releasing that new gear when usually the tome gear beats it and most people wouldn't waste a weekly item on something the same ilvl, even if its better.

But at the same time, they need more than two gear sets at the same ilvl, so we have more options to pick from and can mix and match, instead of "I'll get this full set", it'd be "Should I work for this piece? Or maybe that one?". That's what was great about older mmos. It gave you more to work for instead of only a single thing (expert) per day.

I'll never get Dread lol... So I'm happy with Iron and WoD.

WoD pieces replacing FCoB pieces as best in slot? No thanks, and I haven't even started Final coil yet.

Not everyone does coil and to be honest it's not even necessary to gear up a job.

[Gralna]

It's already been proven that anything over ilvl110 isn't required to beat final coil, it just gives more room for error. Having WoD gear upgradable to ilvl130 would do little to change balance of endgame.

Imo Syrcus Tower gear should of been the upgradable gear instead of soldiery, doesn't make much sense to have raid gear be inferior to vendor gear that came out before it.

So why do you need i130 gear if you don't Coil ? i120 is enough to duty and chill.

Nonsense.

Nonsense.

Why do you need i130 gear even if you DO coil? Again, same argument. This game is all about gear grinding ultimately. Whether you raid or not doesn't even factor into it. Both the endgame content and the rest can be done without the highest-tier gear, so this argument is tired and defeated.

You don't even know what you're talking about.

Do you really think we're slacking the rest of the week after cleaning FCoB ? The top CLs are doing hardcore optimisation for their jobs and rosters, speedkills, solohealing, etc.

The i130 is/should be an achievement AND a tool for raiders, better call us elitists if you want, I just don't know why a lot of ppl want top ilvl gear without any useful way to use it.

Now, can you answer, why do you need i130 gear as non-raider ? i120 is enough for what you're doing, it will be enough for the 3.0 too.
