Tomestone weekly cap?

[Kolsykol]

I wish they removed it now since the weekly cap on Savage loot is gone.

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

Yeah?
You need to do Savage for BiS.

Apparently it's super duper hard too because today I've spent the entire day trying to farm to gear alts and I've had to go through 8 '' farm '' groups to even get a single P1S kill...
I don't even want to think about P4S and how many I went through there...

It got unlocked so all the bad players are looking for easy quick kills.

Not gonna lie I do find the complete non-chalance to be quite infuriating.
I don't like having my time wasted repeatedly and then have people be all '' uwu '' about it, I've seen so many PF descriptions too with '' help me kill so I can start farm ''...
It really can make me hate people at times when I have long streaks of this.

I wish we had another requirement like '' need to have killed the boss X amount of times ''.
I still think there would be problems but it'd probably cut down A LOT on the frustration.

Relic weapons aren't available yet.

Yeah, that's basically it. It's a time gate mechanism, just like weekly lock outs for raids. The idea is to make it so you can't log in and "complete" gearing up everything in a week and then unsub until the next major patch. It also sets a reasonable "speed limit" to ensure that a majority of the community doesn't fall behind the "hardcore" playerbase.


Personally, I enjoy it because it makes me feel like I'm actually keeping up despite being a casual player. HOWEVER, I think that gearing up alternate jobs should be much easier than it is. Like, the first piece of gear that you purchase with the limited tomestones would "unlock" that type of gear for purchase with non-capped Tomestones.

e.g., I purchase a chest piece for my healer with Astronomy tomes; Now I can buy Maiming, Fending, Aiming, Casting, and Striking with Aphorism tomestones. It continues to limit everyone's main job so nobody flies ahead, but makes it so I don't have to pick 2-3 jobs to seriously gear up.

[Jeeqbit]

It effectively means you can only get one piece of gear a week. If you could get it all at once, you wouldn't need to login once a week, you would only need to login for the first week and then not login for months until the next patch. The effect of that is people who do the content late in the weeks after have less people to queue with.

tomestone cap should be 900 baseline

then when the raid gets unlocked it should become unlimited

they should also halve the cost of buying gear with books

theres too many damn jobs to timegate people in 2022

[Liam_Harper]

All it really does is lock your alt jobs out from obtaining BiS until a raid tier is dead and irrelevant.

[NekoMataMata]

It's just a timegate to keep you logging on. It's a bit pointless though. A lot of the time you can just buy crafted gear which is mostly the same.
