The difficulty of Normal Content in this game needs to increase.

[Amenara]

One still needs to play the game of finding BiS for their job and mix in tome gear, but even that isn't too bad and only takes a few weeks of farming.

Game of BiS:
Does it have crit?
Yes? It's probably BiS,
No? Does it have a worthless stat like SkS, SpS (past cap you care about), PIE, or TEN?
Yes? It is not BiS
No? It is probably BiS.
