3 Weeks in (4 Including EA) Basics still broken? Why?

[Blaize]

so the main thing i gather from this is OP is raging about queue instance reservation times. All I know is SE is aware that (mostly on monday) demand for certain dungeons exceeds the number of available instances and they are going to be expanding the DF servers this month (they said middle, so 2nd or 3rd week).

Until that time passes, I will not complain about it because I trust that they will solve the problem by the time they have given. Besides that, i only ever see this issue one day a week (on Monday immediately following the tomestone reset).

Just so your aware check the OP date, and todays, and the Necro...I have a stalker that takes 2 weeks to point stuff out. Some stuff here is still relevant however they have since said Oct patch with add more DF servers...we'll see how it pans out!

Why does only one Dungeon pre Bahamut award a decent amount of Mythology?
Concern is legitimate. Addressed in 2.1, due out this year. Game launched earlier than Yoshi wanted.

Why does it take anywhere from 1hour up to sometimes 2+ to enter that one and only Dungeon even with a full setup of Tank Heals and 2 DPS?!
Concern is legitimate. Game received WAY more customers than Yoshi expected. Adding new instance servers mid-October.

Why is it Crafted gear thats hard enough to craft requires stupid amounts of mats to make when in reality by time you could have collected those Philo Mats you could have bought Darklight and/or even be raiding Coil by the time you have it?
Concern is not legitimate. Crafted gear cannot be trivial to make, or economy gets flooded. SqEnx smarter than you in this case.

Keep in mind it is a brand new title that was put together in record time. The foundation is strong. You can always play something else while you wait for the new instance servers.

Sebastien, in regards to the crafted, it isn't about it being hard or trivial to make, its the cost/reward. Take Vanya Silk for example, 9 Potash per, cost 1125 per silk. Meanwhile you coulda used that on a DL Item which is just as good for starting Coil from what people are saying (Sadly still on Titan myself lolz)
So you could spend less on DL, Enter Coil and upgrade DL (with luck on drops) to Allagan right? Even if you do go down the Vanya route, you still have to be lucky with Forbidden Melds too!
(You need 3375 Philo to just buy the mats for Trousers if you go for a crafted piece...3375 for one item? Thats only iL70)

I'm not asking for Melds or the effort in crafting to change, however the mat cost/amount needed per item is a little on the crazy side!
