Tomestones and Roulette's

[Fendred]

No. This encourages different play styles. Want to level? You can do that roulette and get exp. You want tomes? Suck it up with your better gear, and help the people who are leveling. Why are people so opposed to having to make a choice?

Because the tomestone cap will be a limiting factor in getting into higher level content later down the road (patch 3.1). It's impossible for someone to rush esoteric tomestones, but you can always rush leveling. That's the problem with weekly caps. It artificially inflates the worth of whatever is being capped weekly. The tomestones are worth more than the experience points even if the leveling player is oblivious to their existence.

Also, a person who is leveling would have a vested interest in capping their esoteric tomestones for the week so that if the class they are leveling is the one they want to play (aka, they are switching to a different main job), they have a tomestone reservoir for when they hit sixty to help gear up their main.

FFXIV is catered towards the casuals and they give one specific raid for the hardcore players. This still doesn't change it's a casual game. The only thing they're doing with the current method is burning people on the current content + old content. Complete casuals that only spend a few hours a day/week are repeating just one content, because they can't keep up with the hardcore players that play like 30+ hours a week.

you answered your own question. after the change 1 person can have both, the other person can't have both, that by definition is unfair.

Player 1 enters at Lv 60, gets 100 Law 5 Eso
Player 2 enters at Lv 50, gets 100 Law 5 Eso, 300k XP.

Player 2 got more, that's unfair.

to make it fair, you should give Player 1 an XP scroll that grants 300k XP that they can use on another class.

Uhm... But if Player 1 has another class they're leveling, they can just enter on that class, like Player 2 did?

You already get the armoury bonus on all your alt jobs, I think it's fair to separate xp and tomestones.

Don't mean to sound like an ass; sorry if I do, but what does this even have to do with the OP? This isn't about a mundane label attached to players or anyone's perceptions of how other players should be labeled.

I like the OP's idea. It's not like those 5 eso tomes are going to make us gear up faster when there's a weekly cap in place.
