Tomestones.. Again.. for a relic..

[Shinkuno]

Tons of casual players buy crafted gear when it launches. They do care about ilvl.

because they are locked out of roulettes and alliance raids, if there was no ilvl lock, youd see people with the free lv89 gear in the newest raids

Didn't you use tomestones for the first ARR relics to buy items to upgrade them on the first stages.

after materia melding a base weapon to even begin the relic process, then going out on slaying some monster with your "incomplete" relic

the tomestone mats was the second step. This time you just buy your relic
