The weekly cap needs to go asap.
If I want to farm every hour of every day to equip every job that's MY business, I shouldn't be forced to abide to this 'controlled farming'. Also, if I am to take a longish break from the game, I'd be screwed because I can't catch up fast enough with this ridiculous weekly caps. I stopped playing for about a month back in September/October, and now I'm TRYING to collect as many things as possible so I can do things with my friends who are basically iLV200 while I'm stuck at 180ish because of the stupid caps on everything.
It makes no sense and makes the game become a daily or even weekly chore. This is not some facebook game, good god.

I understand the direction of the game and the way it handles things to accommodate as many people as possible, but I feel it needs to have a bit more courage with its content now. The "Save FFXIV Operation" is over, the game can stand on its feet. Now it's time to walk and move on.
