i guess the only reason that the last story dungeons give tomes is so that there are always people running them for those.
otherwise people doing it for the mainquest could be stuck here if not enough people need to do it!?
You can't really skip darklight. The cap and grinding for mythology ensures that you will be swimming in philosophy. 8 AK runs per week and it gives 80 philosophy per clear. That's 640 philosophy every week if you're capping mythology.
