    Still waiting for SE to do something about the bot farming of items used to make spheres. I have a list of people that are constantly farming them, only changing to other zones when they need other spheres, they go between Palborough Mines, The Eldieme Necropolis, Crawlers' Nest, and Garlaige Citadel.

    It doesnt matter whether they fix it now or not. There are already 2-3 of all the shields and those people are running the markets everywhere. Anymore shields will just drive prices into oblivion where theyre kind of already at vs the cost to make them

    And in all honestly with the amount of time it should take to finish final phase I would have been suspicious after there were shields popping up literally a month after the update that added the final version. Even if they had capped gil on several mules there woudlnt have been enough spheres hanging around on AH's to fund more than maybe one or two shields

    I always call a GM and make a STF report when I see people auto farming.

    Still waiting for SE to do something about these cheaters. It's so bad I'm really considering retiring from game if SE is going to turn a blind eye to the cheating. I've played for over 12 years now and this is how SE treats a loyal, NON cheating customer.

    You can't expect immediate action for something like this. IF the situation is unchanged a few months after the March update to increase desynth pool, then it's worth complaining about again. Especially since we know that something is already being implemented regarding the root of the issue, it won't help you at all to quit in the meantime.

    Cynical response: If you really want something to happen, try posting on JPside. Our side of the forums has no one on staff still as far as I know. :|

    The solution to the issue is not add more items that can be monopolized by more farming bots, it's to ban those that are cheating. The people that cheated to make their shields are not just ruining asura's economy but other servers as well by making mules and sending HQ items over with them. They are benefiting off their ill gotten shields.

    I believe there already is a thread about this there as well:

    My point is that SE is not known for doing something while in the middle of something else related to the same thing. Since they are already doing something related to spheres, they are most likely not going to be interested in doing anything else related to spheres (which includes killing any proven bots,) until what the task they are working on has been completed. I am expecting a ban wave to hit after the March update goes live, just can't predict how soon after.

    IF they've done what I'm hoping they've done and added Abyssea pop items to the list, that would also fully prevent monopolization of any zone. There would just be too large of a supply to scoop up, plus the whole 2hr time limit thing should help to prevent the 24/7 behavior that you and others have reported. Fingers crossed.

    I know of that thread, and it was partially behind my recommendation to post on that side. XD The devs routinely interact with the community 3-5 times per week, and often respond rapidly to requests/complaints, (which is why the chocobo suit/masque are on login atm actually) compared to our side's non-existent communication for more than the last year since they never filled the comrep position after Camate left.
