    Once per week you get a Midan Gear. You can trade in Midan Gears to get High-capacity Tomestones (though they didn't specifically say that it's 1:1 ratio, so...).

    It takes 7 of the gears. So 3 weeks of lore, 7 weeks of alex normal.

    Why so long for a token weapon? Eso only took 3 weeks, Now Lore takes over 2 months?

    To give people reason to not abandon normal :^)

    I decieded to pick up a VIT earring this week and went to meld to see what I could do with it and no shock here you cannot meld more vit into it... I don't know how any of this plays into their "FEAR THE VITALITY CAP" stuff, so I just stuck a STR into it and called it a day.

    Gating. Yoshi doesn't want World First and similar caliber players beating Savage with i230 weapons. Highest they'll have is Sephirot.

    I think it's more of forcing casuals to do alex. I've avoided all of alex because of all the horror stories. But this time around I don't have a choice in the matter.

    Keeps normal active and gives more incentive to do sephirot

    Don't let horror stories deter you from doing content, you're always only going to hear about the worst experiences and they're far from being the norm.

    Apparently tanks are supposed to do less DPS than healers now. Ok.

    Perhaps it was assumed they'd do it in tank stance for some reason?

    Can WHM and AST even deal enough damage while supporting a raid to achieve those numbers realisticly given their horrendious accuracy problem?

    Aren't the numbers required unreachable in current gear and tank stance though?

    Doesn't take into account that tanks are in i210 and sub i210 gear at all.

    Peak Yoshida.

    The game was getting too complex with DPS coming from the tank and healer slots, so that extra uncertainty and confusion for the players has been helpfully removed by making healer and tank DPS nigh-useless.

    a steady diet of rails for everyone

    Why should it take that into account?

    And Yoshi said they added the healers to SSS for shits and giggles since they never really tuned fights to include their dps anyway. It's just there so healers aren't left out.

    Lemme rephrase: We don't know if the calculations for tanks (and other roles) will change as we reach i240. Not that it really matters -- a static check is a static check regardless of the iLvl.

    I assume they're expecting healers to meld accuracy all over the place and that'll fix it. Which means crafted equipment for the top raiders and tome/midan (N) gear for the others. AST has no acc issues with Combusts anyway, WHM on the other hand...
