I don't want to play this many duties for fun, I just aim to make relic progress. It only takes a few hours to reach this cap running things unsynced anyway. So much for making substantial progress on these with my day off. There's not even a warning! I can't even go do roulettes or other duties now - I'm just completely locked out. Sure am glad I don't have raid night planned or anything tonight or this would have completely ruined it. This really needs to be adjusted to be more practical.
    in thinking about it, even if its 100, and very very very few have ever run into it... I think it is indeed practical already and does not need adjustment. if it only took "a few hours to reach" what were you running? to hit 100, even unsynched, in a few hours...would mean you are taking just over 2 minute per run.... relax.. the game isnt going anywhere...

    Same... I didn't know this was a thing...

    It's 100 a day and you can do it incredibly easily if you're working on multiple relics at a light step. Especially if any involve Aurum Vale. You can run that place in 2 minutes (2:03 was my best time on ninja) and you need 40 runs if it's not on bonus.

    I had it happen recently on a night I was supposed to join some friends on a regular Saturday meet up where I had been running relics during the day and had to join them on an alt. It's a rolling amount so it took about 5 hours before I could do any instances on my main again so at least you're not locked out an entire 24 hours.

    They probably should bump the total a bit.

    I never knew this was a thing either. But I can say that if for some unfathomable reason you do hit this limit, it is likely a very good thing to pull the plug on you at that point.

    To be fair most people aren't going to be running double relics for light phase. Or spamming something that many times to hit the cap. People either get bored or too frustrated and go take a break.

    Things also used to take a bit longer to unsync. I think if levels continue to grow we'll see more people run into this sort of thing. Doesn't need to be a big boost. Maybe double it and see how things go. Gives players a bit more breathing room but still low enough it would limit bots.

    Does it count just entering a duty or completion? I drop out of the duty right after I obtain the fine wax/manor varnish and don't go all the way through.

    Maybe if it was more prevalent, but with the amount of people who didn't know there was one. On top of those who knew but never ran into it. Not saying that it should get boosted after it becomes so much of a thing where we see threads being made once a month or however many. I'd guess that people run out of leves or know someone who has than finding out there's a duty cap.

    I don't think I've ever actually run into that limit.

    I've had days where I've done all my roulettes + doing a bunch of dungeons unsync'd at a rate of like 3-5 minutes per duty for ARR/HW relics.
