moogle and ifrit weapons not to be traded for seals?

[Mister-Wonderful]

I was sitting on 13 moogle weapons until I noticed they weren't on the list of tradeable items for seals. Now that i've seen this thread, i wish I had not discarded my extras yet.

The dev. team will be looking into whether or not they will allow Ifrit and Moogle weapons to be traded for Grand Company seals.

Thank you for the suggestion!

What? Players are already looking to get rid of their weapons while other players, like me, still don't have any???
Can I be appointed as the (N)PC they give their weapons to in exchange for seals?
PLEASE!

I agree - trading of Ifrit and Moogle weapons may increase the number of available parties forming (company seal farming) for those of us who haven't had many opportunities yet.

I think that it's a bad idea to make them trade-able for seals.. These are unique weapons forge of Gods. Let alone it takes a great deal to obtain one. With that in mind not every one can get it. You need to be about 45/50 just to get the quest and you need to shout and wait hours just for a good party. ( not every one has a good linkshell like you). I beat Ifirit about 7 times and I never got a single drop. You know the saying there are some things money can't buy? Well there should be some things seals can buy .

Hello,

Not sure if there is misunderstanding, but the idea is for adventurers to give up an Iffy weapon to their Grand Company, who will then pay the adventurer seals. Not the other way around.

This is good if you get Ifrit weapons you do not need (like all the Ifrit Claws I had). And it encourages/rewards people to keep doing Ifrit quests for some more tangible reward other than Dark Matter (although that is my main reason for going).

It further encourages people who are highly experienced at doing Ifrit/Moogy to keep going, and this will make it easier for non-experienced people to tag along and have a chance to win.

All in all, I think this is a great idea, and was actually kind of expecting it with this patch (did not think it would be limited to DH/Tok-Tok and NMs only).

THAT being said.... I hope there is a better way of managing the details of farming for a weapon and getting a duplicate of one you do not want to trade in rather than one you do.

For example, I would get rid of all weapons that I could not use, go in, have only 3/7, hoping I'll get any of the other 4 to trade in for seals, and.... get one of the existing 3 I have. Perhaps we can have a 'status' placed on us, so if a duplicate falls we can choose to send it to the Grand Company (if we are still not allowed to trade it with others in our party).

Thanks Rukkirii!

Here's what I thought when considering implementing trading in Ifrit and Moogle weapons. And maybe even Shposhae gear too.

But for the Ifrit and Moogle weapons I was figuring a trade in value of 10,000 Grand Company seals per weapon drop.

Shposhae can be 50 or below, since they're relatively easy to collect. No greater than 80-100 I'd say.

But the good thing about making these rare primal weapons trade-able is that for the people who basically already have all the weapons, they can go back and help set up more frequent primal parties for people who are new or who haven't had the time to participate as much, like me, and be able to join more frequent, experienced, primal parties.

And it's another great incentive and way to encourage people to replay the content for great rewards and great fun to help others get the weapons they want to keep or trade in if they already have it.

Heya everyone. ^^

The dev. team decided to add Ifrit weapons to the list of items that can be turned in for Grand Company seals from Expeditionary Missions in the upcoming 1.22b patch!

We'll continue to evaluate adding more primal-related weapons to the list of items that can be traded in the future!

ok, this sounds like a trap
give too little seals, peoples will definitely rage
give too much seals, (some) peoples will whine on it
oh what to do, what to do..
