Please increase Trophy Crystal cap AND / OR Add more unique rewards

[zeth07]

I've been consistently completing at least up until Lv.25 in the Series pass (more in Series 1) so I've been constantly gathering trophy crystals and effectively being "forced" to buy things I don't necessarily want just as a means of being able to get the next tier unlocked without overcapping.

I bought all of the unique rewards, and bought multiple Framer Kits for the jobs I play even when I don't even mess with framer kits. I've bought multiple Wolf Collars just to use up crystals, don't particularly care for most of those weapons.

I've bought the full recolor AF set for my main, I've bought a bunch of the recolor LotA and High Allagan recolors pieces.

All of these things I don't particularly care for but are just adding to my inventory space, unless I dump them into other stuff like the Wolf Collars or just buying Framer Kits I don't care about. I could dump them into Trophy Crystals -> Wolf Collars -> Wolf Marks -> whatever but that seems incredibly wasteful considering I'm already in the same situation with needing to overspend on Wolf Marks.

I can provide TWO solutions to this "problem":

1) EASY: Increase the Trophy Crystal cap.
--- Grand Company Seals are able to go up to 90,000 which would be a great start.

--- Island Sanctuary goes at least up to 999,999. This would for all intents and purposes likely solve the problem outright for 99% of people.

2) MEDIUM / HARD? (Easy...): Add more unique rewards.
--- There are 13 MOUNTS and 12 OUTFITS from previous Feast rewards that could be incorporated.

--- A regular Trophy Crystal set is 7,500 crystals. If the Feast rewards are viewed with more prestige or want to be more of a crystal sink they could be something like 10,000 and given in a single boxed set (to save inventory space while earning). In total that'd be 120,000 as is, which would be a lot.

--- Alternatively, the highest Wolf Mark set is currently 14,000 Wolf Marks, so you could just do the same with Trophy Crystals for the old Feast rewards. (168,000)

--- Old Feast mounts could easily be set at 15,000 (195,000) or even 20,000 (260,000) Trophy Crystals as a great sink. This would be similar to the Wolf Marks mount being 20,000. These would last for quite a while as things to buy going forward into the future.

--- The old Feast rewards would take no additional work to implement other than whatever is necessary to incorporate them into the vendor system. Which I'm sure is a lot different from making new stuff from scratch.

--- Create entirely new unique rewards to get per Season / Series...

--- I guess more recolors...

As it is now I'm dumping Trophy Crystals into things I don't particularly care for anymore and it doesn't feel great. I'm up to Series Level 7 on the new Series pass and have not bothered accepting my rewards because I'm capped out and don't feel like buying anything else...

In the meanwhile, they could even add the things we're all converting currency for so we don't have to.

Would be way more incentive to PvP if they actually did this, assuming the PvP devs woke up from their drunken slumber.

[TheGrimace]

Please do this, SE. I'm drowning in Trophy Crystals and my snorkel isn't that reliable.

There is no way for SE to keep up with the people who play PvP as their main content. Just play the modes for fun not for the shiniest latest reward

[DrWho2010]

I would not hold your breath for old feast mount/gear rewards to ever make it back for anyone to get.

We definitely need the vendor updated more often. I basically just convert them to wolf marks all the time and just buy grade 8 dark matter or materia. Either that or make the damn series pass more interesting. 3 actual rewards and the other 27 spots being just crystals is really dumb. I'd rather they dump the crystals and fill the series pass with more random stuff.

Having a hundred of wolf collars in inventory and having to painfully trade them 4 by 4 into wolf marks in order to spend the currency into consumables like materia or whatever sure is a fun way to spend my time.

This has always been an ongoing problem with their vendor rewards from their PvP content. There isn't enough to buy with the amount of Wolf Marks (and now Trophy Crystals) that they shower anyone even remotely active in PvP with. At least with Wolf Marks, you can purchase things like Ventures, Dark Matter or Materia. But Trophy Crystals lose their value once you've bought all relevant portrait accents, misc items and any gear recolors you feel that you want (which doesn't take very long, especially if you've been active for more than just 1 season).

I mean sure, you could spend trophies on wolf collars and then go get wolf marks from those to buy all of that PvE consumables- but would it kill them to make the Trophy Crystal Vendor sell consumables of their own for a Series climb exp. sink? If they did, then maybe it wouldn't be as apparent that they don't update rewards to buy with their PvP currencies more than once a year. Their next batch of Trophy Crystal items (whenever that is) needs to have a high price tag if they expect it to last. I'm talking like near-cap prices so that people have something other than the rank 25 series reward to work for.

If making new things is so hard, they should just expand the Wolf Mark/Trophy Crystal shops with rewards from other places.

The common good suggestion is to make Hunt stuff avaiable but they could go even further, it would make grinding PvP a lot more rewarding to have useful or fun items to buy instead of getting overloaded with Collars and whatnot because the only somewhat worthwhile thing is to get QoL stuff like Dark Matter with Wolf Marks.
