Man, those Utsusemi: Ni scrolls sure do screw over Ninjas because they come from BCNMs. What about Refresh and Phalanx? Oh dear, I mean, there's no way any mage is ever going to be able to get those without being ripped off by RMT.
Nice to see some additional winners from Lakshmi show up
Wow, you guys dont know how price manipulation works, do you?
Farm them all you want, whats to stop an RMT from buying them all off the auction house and reselling at a higher price? Happens more often that you think.
Voidwatch drops are far from rare, and comparing sidegrade-at-best gear with magic scrolls that are pretty necessary to their respective jobs, and the thousands of mages out there that need it, is pretty laughable.

Making the game harder =/= Making the game more boring & repetitive
I know that legit players manipulate the market all the time, and that if you were smart you'd do the same. Crying RMT in this day and age is retarded. You pay what you think the item is worth. If people don't believe an item is worth X amount of gil, then they won't buy it. If people are willing to pay more, of course people are going to increase the price on the market.
The scrolls are vital for their respective jobs. But they're not hard to get, either. You can either be a buyer or a seller. If you think you're getting ripped off by the sellers, then stop being a buyer and go do the KCNM and WoE yourself.
In the end, this is why its such a problem. Instead of waiting around for supply and prices to (hopefully) normalize. They couldve just made the new spells readily available to anyone that wants to pay a set amount to an NPC and be done with it. Up to this point we never had to deal with it, so why now?

Have you really never looked at Phalanx, Raise III, Refresh, or Utsusemi: Ni? Plenty of powerful spells come from BCNMs or from (previously) powerful NMs. Scorpion Harnesses and Haubergeons used to be exceedingly rare, too, back when D Ingots and V Claws were really hard to find and only dropped off HNM-tier monsters.
People were pissed off when Abyssea made the game easy. Now the Dev team is normalizing things again, and adding in content that isn't a gimme. People should be overjoyed.
its not so bad that they are dropped from bc fights, I got all my scrolls like refresh, utsu ni and such from the bcnms and its not really that bad. Whats the difference between farming them in aby for a few hrs and go doing bcnms for a few hrs. Meh its nothing to get so worked up over.
Sometimes you just have to laugh at yourself, you would cry your eyes out if you didn't.
SE just annoying players for absolutely no reason at all. The spells listed they haven't done in years, it's like expecting them to suddenly throw new cor die into bcnms even though you can buy pretty much..most if not all of them from Nash or Zahbi, that's the thing, it's not the fact it's moved to a BCNM or whatever, it's the fact there was no reason to do as such with basic spell progression. Comet I can understand if it completely changes the job like Phalanx and Refresh did, but it doesn't, it's only a novelty spell in the end which I guess is why they did it.
Dark Knight ~ 90: Yes I actually use a Scythe.
So many tears
