    the red scripts can also be used to exchange for material that will allow you to buy augmented Tools/gears for crafters/gatherers you require around 50 red scrips for 1 of those material and you need 13 of those to get the augmented gears/tool (sooo around 650 red scripts for 1 tool/gear) so still quite a grind not too bad but still quite. so I would use your red script to buy that material and get blue scripts for the base tool/gear that can be augmented with the new material

    Sooo confusing LOL

    Actually, it's not confusing at all:

    Red Token = is now Blue Token
    Red Token = can be exchanged for Materia Grade IV
    Goblin Cup/Dice = new Red Token equivalent purchaseable for 50 Red Scrips

    Or did I miss something?

    This is so weird... so we, that actually work hard to have all Gatherer/Crafter Gear..are stupids, cause it doesnt matter all the red tokens you have.. they are useless!.. (and Gatherer Materia IV it is not a worth!)

    THX Yoshida, for all the wasted of time i spent gathering or crafting to cap tokens weekly... ¬¬U..thanks so much!

    It's essentially just like the battle gear, all the lore your collecting now will be really easy to get in 3.4 and a new tomestone will be added. Yeah, I'm not a huge fan of it either. Seems like you can still buy the stuff for lvl 170/180 gear with your red scrip tokens. It's just not the highest item level gear anymore.

    The planned obsolescence is so good you would think Apple makes FF14. Depending on what these recipes look like i might just finish my HQ lvl 170 sets, get to 3 star, and call it a day until next expansion.

    It's not, for a start when the new battle gear comes out, people know in advance. well in advance. They also know if they have a stockpile of whatever tomestone, they can still spend it on gear. They also know they can keep their lore (up to 2000) for purchases after a patch. They've basically dumped this on us with no notice, while all the time forcing us into buying the tokens because the cap was a crappy 500. And to make it worse, if you got this week's tokens you're screwed, someone is already 500 ahead of you for no good reason. If they did that to the battle classes there would be pandemonium.

    Shame about the red scrip hoarding issue. They probably don't care since it's crafting/gathering. Games that used similar systems in the past reset currencies and convert it into money automatically before a new tier begins if they don't add a new one to level the playing field.

    Would have made more sense if they converted red scrips to blue scrips during the maint to add the new items. and let it go over the cap, but you can't get anymore until you spend it and get below the cap.

    Heaven forbid you have to do new patch stuff to get new patch gear.
    DoW/DoM don't get to save old tomestones to buy the newest stuff on new gear patches, why should DoH/DoL? At least if you have 450 scrips stockpiled you'll get to immediately use them on Thursday.

    Guessing Glass Fiber is the moogle equivalent of Ehcatl Sealant to keep people from gearing up the new i190 stuff too fast. Them potion/food changes though, it's about time (potions anyway)
