    Yeah, I've been working through the Amalj'aa lately at my own pace, and not rushing through them is definitely the way to do it. I don't think I really have motivation to get items like beast tribe mounts I can just get whenever with a little bit of effort. I definitely want those earrings!

    Sounds like a good idea for both the low levels that will see their queues shortened and for the high levels that will have access to rare rewards. I´d say keeping it as a permanent feature would be a good idea.

    I have the majority of items, but I quite like it (even though it will be hard, because these dungeons are... ugh), because for me it means I can have items, that are from Diadem. Diadem is really dead (at least on my data centre) and I never got the chance to visit it - so I'm glad I can access the items in another way.

    It's nice to get my alts a few of those items that are no longer available or would take considerable farming, the earrings are nice too and I'm getting the 50k MGP too. But the tomestone payout is way too low, you'll have to do stuff every day to buy 2-3 items. They should either double the tomestones you get from each activity or make this event without a time limit, (or allow undersized parties).

    That is some desperation to drive older content and that grind looks pretty painful and very little fun :c

    Crystal Tower seems like the only thing worth actually grinding for me, as there are a few glamours I want from there so it'd be dual-purpose.

    Everything else just seems like it's meant to be a 'consolation prize' when you get it in leveling roulette.

    I definitely agree the payout is very low for what's expected, and people will probably form parties of 4/8 to do it (defeating any intent of it helping new players find an instance.

    Wow they need to up the amount of tomestones you get given >_>

    if you were to just do 1 of each type a day(1 MSQ,1CT raid, 1 dungeon) you be spending 16 days to try and get the namazu earrings, thats bad, if you want multiple things from the list oof the grind is real

    I was excited until I saw that the max tomestones you can earn per run is 3? And it is for the worst dungeon design where you can't skip Cut scenes .... Yea, the items aren't worth that hell. Even the 1 and 2 tomestone dungeons/raids are torment synced. This is a big no from me dawg.
