Boosting AEQ at levels 72 and 76??

I am one of those guys who built my player at as high a level of training as I could as long as I had enough BT to pay for his level 72 AEQ and if not being able to reach that, the level 64 AEQ. (in other words after paying for their highest level AEQ, I will have little or no BT left) But now with these additional boosts and new boost available, some of these players will reach level 72 and level 76 but not have the BT to get their AEQ. If you have no or 1 piece of AEQ this doesn't hurt you much,. but if you have 3 or four pieces .... !!! . I ask as there was no way to plan and train appropriately for these changes.

This is not meant as a complaint thread as I am a fan of whats happening now. I was just wandering if this has been considered and if any remedy for it is planned. I will understand if there is nothing that can be done and know that no changes can be perfect or fair to everyone. But I will admit it is a little frustrating to build the most efficient way you can and then someone who doesn't, lucks into having the BT necessary for those Level's of AEQ!

There is no upgrade for level 76 for AEQ

It is not divisable by 8

They can get Level 72 gear....but there will be no level 74 gear. the next upgrade to AEQ would happen at level 80 but that will never be reached because of the hard cap at 79

Yeah I got that part. I am talking about the BT that would be required to reach those levels. If you didn't think you would need them, you most likely would not have the necessary BT to buy the Level 72 AEQ. I would think it would be a great compromise to be able to add them at that level like regular EQ, but not add any of the bonuses that come with every 8 levels of AEQ!

If your dot is already in plateau, he'll get 3 more boosts and an extension to plateau, but no way to get more bts. Most of your dots will be age 440 days or less at the end of the season. Once they change the system, their age will be converted to around 264 or so and they will be able to train and earn BTs and VXP again. They'll hit plateau around the middle of next season and go up at least one more level from the additional xp. After they hit plateau, they'll be able to boost 3 more times. In all they should gain another 6-7 levels if you boost 3 times before you hit plateau. They'll also gain another 4-5 veteran points.

Your youngest dots were created in mid season and will get even more training time and levels. If they've already traded in their left over XPs, they will be able to do that again assuming they have any left over after the training.

Thanks my friend! The information is greatly appreciated!
Also thank to you Triathlon Due! As always, a big help!

Note that a player approaching plateau at age 440 on day 40 this season, will be able to earn enough BTs with the additional training to upgrade 4 AEQ....

16 off-season days would have earned 48 BTs, for 2 upgrades.

New system, 16 off-season days earn 96 BTs for 3 upgrades, plus 16 season 24 days from age 264 to age 280, earn an additional 96 BTs, total of 192 BTs, or 6 upgrades.....

So you would have been able to get 2 upgrades, but in new system you'll get >6 upgrades....enough for all 4 AEQ to be upgraded from level 64 equipment to level 72 equipment....

So, in a way, yes, they have adjusted to allow players to get level 72 equipment with the new boosts.....

What im4 said... except for really really old guys, you will be able to gear up. Obviously there's also training to think about, if you're trying to eke out a point or two more in your more important attributes.

Except LBs, CBs, and FBs of course.

Nah I'm just messin' wit ya.

it is not hard to fully upgrade 4 AEQ to level 72, and the boost cap is 79, so no need for level 80 upgrades.
