Is allgan gesr better than il90 myth tome items?Follow

Totally situational. Though, I suspect adjustments to T1-5 will negate the need in what differences exist, particularly with ACC.

Allegan is potentially easier to get, or atleast in a shorter timeframe.

But Best-In-Slot (BiS) depends heavily on your job and what you have as far as preferences go.

For most jobs it's a mix-match of things.

If you're a DPS and your Myth gives Parrying but your Allegan gives Determination, then Allegan is better in that slot.
If another slot has you pick between Accuracy and Critical Hitrate, it all depends on what stats you already have.

Best-In-Slot, outside of some very obvious examples, depends on what you want to do with it yourself the most. For some pieces it's Myth, for some pieces it's Allegan. But i doubt anyone would get upset you if you showed up in full ilvl90 Myth or in full ilvl90 Allegan (though i guess you cant be sure with people these days...)

Just get full ilvl90 first and see which of the two pieces outperforms the other from there on.

Let me answer your question from a 2.1 perspective: it depends. Certain Allagan pieces are better than myth pieces but certain myth pieces are better than Allagan.

In 2.2, they're adding a new type of currency for the next type of gear. I believe they're actually calling this AF2 gear because that's what they had originally intended over the AF+1 gear. If they're adding a new currency to purchase this gear, mythology basically becomes what philosophy is now. If that is the case, there is no reason to put a cap on it in 2.2 and I suspect they will be removing the cap.

If that's the case, yes you could spam coil. But while you're spamming coil, you're gaining mythology tomes as well for each turn. You'd just be speeding up the current process we have now. The assumption is that they will remove the cap on mythology.

Seconded.

I wouldn't be surprised if SE nerfs coil drop rates as weekly caps are removed.

They will just nerf the gear, make it i80/85 or something

I think SE could easily nerf drop rates while leaving the gear alone. Just have loot pools for certain chests include items other than gear pieces.

I'd actually prefer this. If people will be able to spam these dungeons, then the only way to retain value of all other gear sub 90 (including darklight and CT gear) would be to make BC gear drops much more difficult to come by.

Makes sense, doesn't it? I don't see how people could honestly get mad about that, as long as obtaining i90 gear doesn't increase in difficulty.

Other than locking out content with an iLvl requirement, why would anyone care if they lowered the iLvl on BC gear? Is e-peen really that important to people or am I missing something?

depends on your JOB and role

There really isn't any drop rate to lower. You mean not 100%?

Of course they did switch around the Ampador Keep Loot, so maybe they will actually change what drops where.

Meanwhile, I didn't actually see details on the new 6-10 loot, and gear ilvls. New weapons? Will they be 95? 100? Not really sure.

If you kept the stats the same and just simply lowered the iLVL, what does it matter? If by lower iLVL what was really meant was CHANGING THE GEAR STATS THEMSELVES, that's quite a bit different from "lower the iLVL". That was my question.

That was exactly my point?

I didn't understand the statement "they would nerf the gear making it iLVL 80/85". I read that as "they would just nerf the gear BY making it iLVL 80/85" when what was I guess meant was "they will nerf the gear by CHANGING THE STATS THUS MAKING it iLVL 80/85".

Then CT would wind up just as empty as AK lol
