Tomestone weekly cap?

Kupo <3 when we run roulettes and get templated down in ilvl...does having better gear have any noticeable effect?

The only effect your gear choice has above the item level sync is which substats your gear has, not the amount of them. Piety or tenacity over Critical Hit is not usually optimal. Materia does not count.

if not the only reason to get top gear is to run savage otherwise kupo *shrugs*

Ultimate, extreme trials, expert roulette, level 90 normal raids, level 90 normal trials, hunts, maps, quests and level 89-90 fates. You don't need the better gear for these, but killing them faster is nice and it's a flex.

There is a stat-cap in every dungeon or raid.

I wouldn't describe it like this and this is not strictly true for the latest dungeons at level 90.

There is a Level Sync which is applied to any content below your level. Level Sync includes an item level sync to the maximum item level of the expansion it's from. The maximum item levels for 50, 60, 70 and 80 are 130, 270, 400 and 530 respectively. Leveling dungeons sync your item level to something slightly above those, such as 403, 406, 409, 412, 415 or 418 for 64-69 respectively.

There is an Item Level Sync which is applied to certain dungeons and story mode trials. If you are the same level as the content and level sync doesn't apply to you, you will still get synced to this item level.

We will experience Item Level Sync in level 90 dungeons to prevent them from becoming too easy later in the expansion, but it's not used for level 90 content with 8 or 24 people.
