Why don't normal Trials drop anything?

Crafted weapons gear alts very easily. I managed to kit out all 13 classes to 359ish or higher with it the last patch (augmenting with tome pieces). And 360 is more than good enough to do 95% of the game's content at the time, as is 390 now. You can gear alts that way and play them as you like. It kept me sane during the content drought, because it's nice to switch jobs up in casual content.

Yeah if you have hundreds of K to blow on these items....

Until you can afford to gear out your alts, they're retired. The game goes out of its way, intentionally, to make your life difficult if you decide you want to play everything all at once at cap.

Leave the road to 60 playstyle, where you try to be everything, back at level 60.

A month or two down the road it's not an issue, but you do need to focus for now.

And you're actually supporting this?

You're trying to say it's a good thing that we can no longer enjoy and appreciate having multiple jobs at cap?

Being able to change jobs on the fly is one of the major selling points of FFXIV, but yet you think it's OK that people should be forced into one, *maybe* two jobs once they reach the level cap until way late into an expansion when they can finally put some time into getting weapons for their other jobs?
