    tomes need to change in this game ...

    ok so there is only a few ways to get tomes and there is 2 types of tomes, philosophy and mythology, Amdapor keep gives you 80 philosophy tomes and 40 myth tomes it also is the only dungeon at 50 that I know of that drops gear as well, wanderer's palace drops tomes but no gear and I herd is harder than Amdapor keep... which to me seems silly. you also have Castrum Meridianum and praetorium which are 8 man raid no loot part of your story quest at lvl 50 and gives you 100 tomes of phil if you kill the last boss only... this to me is really horrible design id like to see tomes for each boss drop, so for instance if there is 4 bosses in a dungeon the first 3 drop 40 tomes of philosophy and the final boss drops 40 philosophy and 40 mythology, in doing this you award people for defeating them bosses and make people feel it was worth going into the dungeon and not completing it is ok because you are still getting tomes from it.

    Please no. Then you'll get people Queuing up, killing the first boss, and leaving all the people who were there for the story quest because it's more efficient to kill the first miniboss over and over. Also, Wanderer's Palace is easier than Amapador and does drop gear.

    So you would rather have welfare epics so people could have the top tier gear minutes after hitting 50 then zerg rush through the content?

    The idea of pacing you through the level 50 content is nice in my opinion because it forces you to become comfortable with your class

    TOKENS ARE WELFARE EPICS.

    Whats wrong with this post WoW generation that cant seem to grasp that. AS it stands now, you can get 300 tokens a week, a full set of gear will cose around 5000 tokens. Thats 16 weeks.

    Thats not difficulty, thats tedium. Thats 16 weeks of Amdapor Keep.

    WHo the hell said its difficult, whats wrong with you. Its simply capped so you dont go out of your way to farm the same thing over and over again. Go and do something else.

    For 2.0 that is the only option, and there is no reason you NEED to get this gear, there will be equivelent ilv gear from coil.

    2.1 introduces more options to get the tomestones, and the tomestones are simply a reward so EVERYONE gets something in each run and not just the lucky few who get a drop from the chests.

    SE should have left mythology completely off the table to avoid such stupid issues. Mythology tomestones are realy ment fo supplementing no drops in much higher level gear, but start dropping from lower level content (i.e how philosophy start dropping at lv44 or 41 dungeons, but are for lv50 content).

    Why is it that everyone resorts to outlandish exagerations to prove a point?

    Full darklight still requires ~5400 tomestones. OP's suggestion, for instance, only increases the philosophy tomestones from AK by 40. Hardly "minutes"

    I love the official forums, they tell you to use the search for thread about what you wanted to talk but when you use it they judge for necro a thread.

    I don't care about reward for each boss or not.

    I think that the only part that is bad design is that Amper Keep turn out to be the only good place to get tome. This encourage people to only do one dungeon, and it is very boring.
