Ok... WHY was this change necessary? Conquest points are more difficult to get than gil is, and can be used for some things you're incapable of buying for gil.

Eh... you can still use gil to OP, you don't have to use CP.

I know. It just boggles me why it was added is all.

The real issue here is how lackluster all these "news" updates are. Posting a bunch of topics on adjustments doesn't make them more interesting, I really don't get why they didn't compile it into one "Test Server" update rather then the way they did it. Some of those don't even justify having a "news" made about like the quirky 2 seconds teleport adjustment.
Plus the issue with Abyssea still isn't being handled properly, ok so you're increasing the rate in which we can receive a colorful but how does that help with the fact that while every other Empyrean and in effect +2 and in effect even some other named NMs have been given 3 spawns, you stilll refuse a concept in which the void mobs can have 3 spawns of each one.

This is just going to annoy people to no end now having to go through an additional option every time. Please retract it.
Personaly I think this shows little forthought.

All this does is it moves the bottleneck up to the next tier of VNM.

There shouldn't be an additional confirm.
Currently the choice is: Are you sure? (Yes/No)
Just need to change it to: Are you sure? (Yes,gil/Yes,CP/No)

This is pretty much how they did it.
Now, when are asking for a teleport (either direction), it prompts "Yes" and "Later". The pointer defaults to "Later".
On the Test Server, it still has the "Later" option and the pointer still defaults to it. But it has 2 options above it instead of just one.... Top one is Gil, the middle is CP. ("Later" is the bottom on both old and new.)
It's a reasonable option if people want to use CP for this. The gil price is unchanged from the old. The CP price is 10% of the gill price amount. Lowest Gil price is 100. CP for that is 10. Highest gil price is 1500. CP for that is 150.
If you don't want to use CP for this, gil still works for the same cost it has been for a while now.

I have like 150k conquest points that I don't use for anything at all. I'd be happy to spend them over using gil.

This update is great for people new to the game. They aren't doing VW (which is the only thing I use my Conquest points on) and generally spend their gil to upgrade gear/weapons as soon as they get it.

Turn your CP into voiddust and cells, sell those on the AH and then use that gil for 10x the teleports. Even if this only took them 15 minutes to code it's still a waste of time.

That takes time I'm not willing to spend. :P

Unless things are very different on Lakshmi... on Phoenix, your 2k CP cells will only net you ~7k each, or ~100k for a stack. Only voiddust comes close to your 10x, and it's still 18-19k less the tax you pay.

I was exaggerating.
