This red scrip system doesn't seem very casual-friendly..

By next week do you mean when the weekly cap resets on Thursday? Next Tuesday? The Thursday after that? It would suck to see the system adjusted in the middle of the crafting/gathering week, especially if it means the items you turned in before then are suddenly worth more than you got for them.

I'm confused how would that suck exactly? You have now been made aware they are making adjustments to this. Even if you didn't know what date they make the adjustments, you know that it will happen. So DON'T turn in your items before then. Wait until after the usual weekly maintenance/hotfix's, then hand in if no fix before thursday. Problem solved. The one thing I would be worried about, is if they make adjustments to it mid-week, is there a chance that it will reset the weekly cap? Hmmm. All things considered though, it wasn't that terribly difficult to get the cap. I got it finished sunday, with the wrong assumption it was resetting tuesday. And on top of that I had gathered enough ores for a couple more tokens. So as long as the easier item to obtain via mining/harvesting doesn't change weekly, it wont be hard to get the cap. Much less you can gather it even after your done with cap, to hoard and hold onto for the future hand ins.(altho It can get hard on the inventory..) And I just have the bought HQ gear, no melds, and only have MIN, I don't have BTN. So I can only hit the one mining point in Asys Lla twice a game day. And I've done regular roulette's, and queueing for EX stuff with FC. Again its not as hard as some say. But I won't be complaining when its made easier. That's more time for me to spend elsewhere, between this change, and the change to Alex drops, I'll have a crap load time to sync into other content on the game. So I'll be happy with the change.

Oh I forgot to mention the part about crafting.. That is most defintiely needed. Due to the cost of buying these materials outright to make the item, those should definitely have a much greater value for red scrips. Gathering probably doesn't need nearly as much of a buff, but crafting definitely does.
