I also reached the weekly cap by doing daily and weekly on section x and black hole etc and a few HM flashpoints, out of which I got 1 implant, since it seems nothing proper is dropping. Only implants, earpieces and bracers. Note that I haven't done any SM operations to get the comms from there. I can see three solutions to the comms problem: a) Remove the cap b) Reduce the amount of comms gained and the price of gear c) Remove the cap As for hardcore/casual, it actually increases the gap. A hardcore player is probably already in black hole gear and better, so he is able to join lvl 55 ops and get the new gear. For a casual player who just got to 50, and has to grind black hole through hardmode fps, since there is no complimentary gear anymore, it will take forever to get few black hole pieces to be able to join the operations, thus letting him weeks behind. I believe this is insulting to subscribers. OK, I have no life and like killing Torvix and Dread Commanders. So what?
