    thats my point, on a large scale, like doing dynamis every day for a year and checking final tally, TH7 > TH3. On a small scale though, which is what most people will experience, the difference between TH7 and TH3 is negligible.
    Well, your first post wasn't very clear, since you only seemed to compare TH1 and TH3 but you explained it better there, so I can admit I was wrong.

    Looks like you're in for some bad news though. This only means bsts will be in your way alot longer than, taking the currency you feel you so rightly deserve. Bsts are a stubborn bunch, we've tried to do stuff like limbus and nms solo even before th pets came out. This won't get rid of us.

    And it may not even get rid of the casual bsts, the "scrubs" as you call them. As much as SE wants to ignore it, people want to do things in as small a group as they can. You really think people all ran to lvl bst to do dynamis because they had access to a th pet? They did it because they didn't want to share with other people. Lower th might mean less coins but I'm betting a solo bst will still get a better deal than splitting coins in the average duo. Annnnd depending on how they adjust the recipes, that means jugs could actually decrease in value a lot, meaning that all those "scrub" bsts will be raking in gil with lower overhead. Enjoy.

    With the ease of leveling a job in abyssea...yeah. Sounds like a pretty solid plan, spend 1-2 days powering bst to 99, buy up 100k worth of AH garbage, make 2-3m every day via dynamis with next to 0 effort.

    I'm pretty sure you're wrong, considering how many bsts I see running around with sheep. Considering how ignorant the average player is, it wouldn't surprise me in the least to find out that the vast majority didn't even know that Yuly was a thf, let alone that it had th. Believe what you want though.

    I think only non-serious BSTs will actually care about this nerf, as in those who leveled BST just for dynamis farming. With a little extra thought, you can see why.

    Basically, if SE adds "Pet: Treasure Hunter +1" items, you'll be able to gain Treasure Hunter on all the pets rather than just the two. This adds a lot of flexibility to what BST can use, and adds a lot more choice. So if they add two items with TH+1 for two different slots, you can have TH2 on any pet, or TH3 on the original TH pets. And the difference between TH2 and TH3, from the tests I've read about, isn't that huge.

    So basically, those who play BST because they actually like playing BST will likely put in the effort to get these items and get rewarded for it with greater flexibility in their choices for familiars, while those who leveled BST for a quick buck get the short end of the stick. I know a lot of people are upset about this, but if you're serious about BST, then I think this is really a buff in disguise.
