So...is it worth it?

[Justsomeguy]

My very best guess is that most of what we're wearing, the things we get etc. will be rendered essentially worthless a few hours into the expansion. What MATTERS is that you have fun playing, or maybe I'm just old-school that way.

True, true. That probably is the best advice XD

This probably depends on what you define as "endgame."

I feel we can safely assume it won't require anything from the Coil of Bahamut or a completed zodiac weapon.

But if it makes you continue on with the "Seventh Astral Era" story quests, some of them do require an average item level higher than you would naturally obtain by the time you hit 50. Currently the last main story quest fight requires a minimum average item level of 90. Because of that, you would need to do some of either the six highest level dungeons, Syrcus Tower / the World of Darkness, or buy soldiery equipment to finish it.

Ahh, I was thinking Sycrus/WoD (Too terrified to enter in those alone lol) and Coil. The highest dungeons I enjoy running, soooo...

Thanks, glad it looks like I won't need to run super catch up.

@Kaedrian No, I did not mean it like that at all.

I was merely worried that I'd need to run some horrendous game of catch up. I don't mind working for my stuff, but if there isn't a point in trying to run Coil and the like, I'd rather not force myself into it. Much rather start anew with whatever HW introduces than scramble to find people to start new with with the current stuff.

No need to be rude.
