Yoshida has confirmed the weekly Mythology Tome cap will be removed in Patch 2.2. Allagan Tomestones will replace them as the top tier currency.

Here is the link and the Google Chrome translation:

Allergan Tome Stone: Senki is newly added, but this Leviathan, and new dungeon instance: I get it? With "Dungeons Bahamut invasion Edition"?

[Yoshida] - Yes. In addition, Allergan Tome Stone: week limit will be abolished mythology.

Let's hope CT lockouts go the way of the RL dodo too. Otherwise it's going to be useless. ^^;

Ugh...the game needs pacing mechanisms to elongate gameplay, and they're removing one pacing mechanism while adding another (I'm sure the new allagan tomestones will have a cap) instead of have two pacing mechanisms to control progression in addition to crystal tower lockouts.

It would make sense that all pacing mechanisms below the ilvl90 stuff should be removed along with the ilvl90 pacing mechanism.

I think the CT lock could stay in place BUT changed over to "1 item per set per week" - so people aren't watching sadly as a piece they could have Greeded on falls to the floor because they're saving the slot for a different item, only to be outlotted when it drops on the next boss. Smiley: mad

So I'm going to have to go ahead and say "I TOLD YA SO" to the people who said they HAD to level another alt to gear it out faster due to CAPS on ToM because I said that one day they would be removed.

I read also that the CT lockout would be removed.

He mentions the Mirage Prism vanity system and says, because of that feature, player will have many style options available. Then he says that CT lockout would be removed and he expects that together this will increase the demand for CT gear.

They will want their 2nd character to get the gear from the new tomes.

Those players are in position to gather Allagan Tombstone at twice the rate of everyone else. Leveling a Alt is an absolutely viable method of maintaining interest in the game after players smack into the wall that limits their progress. Moving forward, if players want to have more than one Job right at the current maximum ilvl cap, having two characters is the best option.
