    Tomestones cap needs to be raised a month before next patch

    What is the reason we still have a cap of 450 which gets you nothing that week except accessories? Even savage loot is unlocked
    Please change this for the next cycle. Raising the cap 1 month before cap would bring and keep people subscribed. Please consider it Yoshida, 450 cap is not keeping more people subscribed by then

    You wipe a farm party constantly but you're having fun playing your way. Nah you're fine dude.

    This community astounds me at times.

    Raising the caps won't really keep people subscribed in. At least, not as much as you are insinuating.

    The fact that they have to resort to limiting the amount of tomestones you can get per week, just to keep people subscribed to their game, is what bothers me the most. Few things scream "bad game design" more than this. Rather than hold people hostage with this disrespectful system, how about they give us a reason to actually PLAY THE GAME, instead of making us log in just to grind Expert Roulette once a day just to cap our tomestones?

    Such as?

    It's not so much bad game design as it is traditional MMO subscription bait. Collecting the best equipment is one of the most popular forms of progression and if you could get all your gear within a week people would be less inclined to play.

    While I'm not especially defending this practice I can understand why the are caps in the first place.

    I suppose the caps are there because you're basically getting Savage level gear for 'free'.
    Just handing it out would further demotivate people from clearing challenging content and completely devalue the high-end ilevel gear itself.

    They are the same thing to any person feeling that way. I’m sure people, maybe even you, would complain if they did nothing but release LoV content for 2 years. It’s still stuff to do. I’m being obtuse on purpose.

    Giving feedback, even negative feedback is always preferred to the customer leaving without saying a word.

    Reading too much of the forums makes me very sad and apathetic.

    Condescension aside, what say you to people who have all their jobs leveled or simply aren't interested in crafting? I would be equally bored were it not for Ultimate. Because I find stuff to eventually occupy my time doesn't detract from the fact 4.1 launched with sparse amount of content for non-PVPers or raiders.

    So you'd rather remove the limit then? So instead of doing 5 experts a week you can do more experts a week? I mean, you already could, if you wanted to that badly.

    The weekly cap is there so that you don't have to play 24/7 to keep up. If you want to do away with Tomestones entirely, we could do what WoW did where you farm enemies until you get a shiny legendary and hope it's the one that actually helps you instead of being a useless item, specially when it gets harder and harder to get pieces the more you get. Would you rather that?

    If you can't find a reason to play the game, don't play it right now. Wait for the new content. Nobody's gonna kill you over a break.
