Can we maybe slow the power creep down a bit

I am not even at i300 to do Skalla. I am three short and need some buyers to get the gear I need.

If you run Ala Mhigo a few times, you'll get more 300 gear. also can't you buy ala mhigan gear with poetics now? (310)

Ala mhigan gear was moved to centurio seals vendor.

They said Run Ala Mhigo, to get the i300 Arhat gear, not the Ala Mhigan gear that use to be from tomes.


Anywho! I don't really mind the way they progress things. I mean, if I'm going to be gearing up, I want to feel the power from it. What's the point otherwise.

I see some people say to keep old content fun, but like... I want to do the new stuff, and gear up and get stronger from it. It's not worth it otherwise IMO.

The damage increase from tomestone weapon, to the upgraded version, isn't really a good indication of a power creep, as it isn't always the same. Looking at the WAR tomestone weapons over the course of ARR, HW and up to 4.2 in SB:

Augmented Ironworks Magitek Axe (Poetics) and Kintoki Kai (Law) have a +3 increase.
Conquerer (Soldiery), Parashu (Esoterics), and Mikazuki Kai (Mendacity) have a +2 damage increase.
Augmented Hellfire Battleaxe (Lore), Augmented Shire Bhuj (Scripture), and Augmented Lost Allagan Battleaxe (Creation) have a +1 damage increase.

They said Run Ala Mhigo, to get the i300 Arhat gear, not the Ala Mhigan gear that use to be from tomes.

The person you quoted was simply pointing out that the Ala Mhigan gear has been moved to the Centurio seal vendor, not the poetics one.
