Beware when buying from Hismena

[Eloah]

You can get them with hunt seals.

Not the point I was making, but okay.

But if we are following the previous pattern, they still should be acquired by tomestones.

I’m doing a lot of guessing here because I wasn’t around for HW endgame, but...

The i200 relic gear is bought with hunt seals from the inn at Ishgard. I understand these were originally tomestone gear? And I’m guessing they might have been originally sold in Idyllshire? (...i think I’ve just worked out why you buy and upgrade those in two different cities.)

If so, I’m assuming that would make [first tomestone gear tier] shifted from the endgame hub shop to the Centurio vendor once they were outdated, then the two further tiers remained at the endgame shop for poetics.

Which would mean it’s exactly the same thing that’s just happened now to the first-tier SB tome gear - except they’ve put a vendor in the same city this time.

All that said, I don’t think they’re supposed to be selling Creation tokens at Idyllshire and it might be an error. They only seem to sell the tokens relevant to what’s purchased at that location - Lv50 weapons at Revenant’s Toll, Lv60 at Idyllshire. Creation tokens should be sold at Rhalgr’s Reach because that’s where you trade them in. Are they selling there as well or did they somehow get placed at the wrong shop?

Then again, it could be to do with shop currencies. Probably everything in a shop list has to be one currency, I don’t think any of the shops at the Reach accept poetics yet, do they? So maybe they just get put in the other location temporarily until they can be moved to the more appropriate shop.

Also I thought they still had a Creation purchase list when I was looking at the new gear? You can’t get the tomes any more but maybe you can still spend them for now.
