Thread: Buy your Tanking Food Now

All true, but you forgot to subtract out the demand increase that comes with having to re-use food after dying.

With that said, I think the demand will still be higher in 2.1. Unless your loaded with gil, Most people dont buy food because you lost the effect when you die. Essentially burning Thousands in Mins when raiding. A good piece of food is essentially 1-2 accessories, now that it last thru death, its too good to pass up.

You forgot one fact

Why peoples should bother PVP? this game not even PVP based

And if there even reward for getting items in PVP, you can have 6 friends play each others to work this out too

The intent of the post was to advise people to buy food in general, not just for pvp. Also, I wont be surprised if PVP becomes really big part of this game because Yoshi-P is a Fan of PVP

As a player? Sure he was a damn good Daoc player.
As a developer? I doubt he really takes PVP seriously, it just doesnt fit the FF world.

And regarding food, we really need more apkallu camps!

I'm level 50 CUL

And i find that making GIL in this game is pointless.

The main source or worth in this game is TOMES and as long as you can trade TOMES for GEAR that is = to crafted gear then crafted gear holds no value in the end.

The only thing thats ever going to be inflated in the markets is ( MATERIA )

Foods can be had by any NPC selling at random locations. Using the LIBRA app. one should never ever have to buy crafted foods unless your just wanting HQ versions.

With the BONUS to crafting skills added in 2.1 FC Housing. you could prob. level CUL to max in less than 3 days. Given the repeatable LEVE quest items can be purchased instead of crafted.

But man.. what a joke that everyone has the ability to level every craft to 50 within a month. What good will GIL be then ? Everyone can craft their own needs.

I have a few level 50 DoH and I dont craft for gil, I craft to be the Best. I'm a Min/Maxer type of guy. So if I want to be the best, Im either going to blow millions paying others for food/potions/gear or level crafting classes to be self sufficient. I chose the 2nd.

With that said. i dont think crafting is useless. Some crafted gear is better than the ilvl 90 gear. Take the Grypho skin accessories for example. For a Tank, the lvl 90 accessories only offer VIT PAR and ACC (with some not having ACC or PAR). While the Gypho Can offer VIT STR DEX DET ACC PAR & Skill Speed. I find i do a way better job tanking with those than the lvl90 items while only sacarficing alil bit of hp.

You cant buy the best foods from vendors. Some foods equate to about 2 accessory pieces or 1 ilvl 90 accessory. And in the future, I think Crafting classes will play a even bigger role .
