    Tomestone weekly cap?

    I'll hit the Astronomy tomestone weekly cap tomorrow (5 more). What's the purpose of this limit? All it seems to do is limit time played. If I run a lot of hunt trains, I can reach 450 in 2-3 days.
    (I won't have much reason to log on until next Tuesday after I've collected 450.)

    It’s literally just a time gate so you can’t gear all your jobs too fast.

    Especially when you realize they have no problem upping it from 450 > 900 later in the expansion cycle. It's a timegate pure and simple, something to keep sub money coming in.

    Veteran healers don't care if we need to heal, but right now we don't. We want interesting things to do during the downtime other than a 30s dot and a single filler spell that hasn't changed from lvl 4 to lvl 90.
    Dead DPS do no DPS. Raised DPS do 25/50% lower DPS. Do the mechanics and don't stand in bad stuff.
    Other games expect basic competence, FFXIV is pleasantly surprised by it. Other games have toxic elitism. FFXIV has toxic casualism.[/LIST]

    A timegate. At least it's not a set of weekly quests. Now if you excuse me, that book won't finish itself! lol

    It encourages people to run Savage as well to gear I guess

    Because the gear you can buy is equivalent to what's available in Savage, it would be wrong to allow you to just casually farm it up while other people work through harder content.

    Because people doing HaRdEr content are doing it for the gear. Please.

    -headpat- nice try. Now try responding to what I actually said.

    -----------

    People fuss about it, but then if you ask them about what they do, it's never anything that actually requires it.

    Yeah? Why do you think weekly reclears are a thing? Not to say people aren't doing it because it's fun (they are) but people run Savage to gear jobs, especially after they've gotten BiS for their main.

    In a game with vertical gear progression, I think it is safe to say that people do indeed do harder content for the gear. Maybe not just for the gear, but that is definitely part of it.
