New weapons too far off?

[Archaell]

At least some jobs share gear... unless you want to play one healer, one tank and one dps like I do. ._.

I seriously wish SE would make a distinction between the main job and alt jobs, making it less time-gated to gear up the secondary ones.

Hmmmm I am confused.....so u r saying both Midas-4 normal and Midas-4 savage will drops tokens/pages needed to get the weapons? If so this is a new thing for tomes weapons...... it's interesting...... I think SE is trying out something new here. Maybe that explains why Sephirot's weapons all have slots for materias melding to make it last longer beyond its ilv 220 much like that extra +ilv5 they did back with Leviathan and Shiva ones but this time with materias to boost.

Also Yoshi did mentioned Midas Savage won't be as tight-dps as Gordias Savage thus getting lore weapons isn't that priority. Moreover, by then the anima weapons upgrade will be introduced thus making it more in line with the lore weapons in terms of ilv.

Wasn't it like this in ARR?

You needed a special drop from the actual Turns, which came to the 24 raid in the catchup patch, to purchase your tomeweapon.
It began with SCoB (ilvl 100 tomeweapon).
But it would be nice if you haven't to raid for your tomeweapon or wait a patchcycle.

The weapon timing should put us around 3.25 looking at the previous patch dates give or take a week or two.

So maybe anima upgrade might make these the same ilvl, or just a few off.
