One and one only currency

[LalaRu]

From this thread:

...I think we get too many currencies. Alexander alone represent 35 different currencies (Head/Chest/Gloves/Belt/Pant/Accessories x3 + weapon x2 all normal mode, 12 different tome for the 12 savage floors), then we have the 7 primals which make a total of 42 doing end game content, add to this mhach matter and demi-matter, coin x3, proto-ultima thingy, diadem tokens gatherer/war, PotD's tokens, tribe, micro-memo.... here we have a total of 57 currencies in Heavensward alone and I probably forgot some. Don't they realize how insane it is?

Some currencies have sense because requiring you do a specific content (as example, the potd one), but that Alexander ones are a bloating.

I'll vouche for have only three currencies besides the tomestones and do-this-content-alone: one for casual, one for hard content, and one for savage content.

Just deal with rewards and item prices to keep them balanced.

Most of them are not currencies, but tokens

4.0 patch note: You can get your i270/5 body / weapon piece by farming a9s now!

Yay, no one needs to do a12s ever again! A great victory for Eorzeans \o/

But....this is true for Alex also? You get a weapon for doing A12S, not A1S. If you are hoarding Father, Son and Creator tokens then the issue is not the system but yourself. There's no need and they're not intended to be kept long term - like all tokens.

As I say to 95% of people who complain about inventory space: Stop hoarding.
