    It depends what he means by "another kind." If you could exchange 3 Whiteshells for 1 Alexandrite, that would be profit at the moment on Lakshmi.

    Still, I doubt he made the OP with the 3:1 ratio locked in.

    I'll be happy to fill in those shoes to fit your paranoia of people following you to harass you.

    Moving along, You're wrong. Wrong wrong wrong wrong.
    Wrong.
    Wrong wrong.
    Wrongity wrong wrong.

    Ahem... When i was making my relic, Most of my currency came from trades. People are very willing to trade Currency 1 for 1, You just have to find someone who's needing the currency you have. I traded Ords for Bynes, Bynes for Tukus, etc etc. Shout to sell or trade, and you'll probably get a good chunk of trades.

    That out of the way, I'd like to just toss out that I support this idea. It seems reasonable. In the Crystal War Era, they were still using Ancient Currency, They were slowly making the transition to Jeuno Currency (Gil). So there should still technically be a good chunk of Ancient currency flying around in the Crystal War era. A system like this would be nice.

    Is it 100% needed? I don't think so, But it would be a nice convenience. It would also help level the Currency market in prices, since all currency would be interchangeable. But then you have to think of it like this... If all currency could be traded for the other, People would just flood the easiest Dynamis zone to farm currency... yes, People would do that. It would cause some issues and SE would like not like the idea of it...

    People would still picks zones they need for X crap (-1 Relic, Touches/Etc, Exp trials)... But all that aside, those after pure currency would flood to the easiest zone to farm and blow it up, and just take the currency and trade it in for whatever.

    Then again, Being able to trade any currency for eachother would stop people from being forced into one zone for their current stage and be able to pick any zone to farm depending on how packed they are.

    Honestly, theres a lot of negatives and positives, its a tough call.

    I save my gil for making it hail on Mithras and Tarus. *chucks out a handful* ~.^

    Seriously though, I have never been fond of selling one currency just to buy the one I need. Throughout the years, I've only bought from LSmates/friends that are sailing at a reduced price because they don't need. Other than that, I tried to shout to find someone to trade out 1:1. Yes, it does take a lot longer my way, but I'm in no rush; I enjoy the game.

    I would also support a 1:1 conversion NPC; perhaps to follow the lore a beastmen or other NPC could be placed in the Shadow Realm that would offer the service.

    1 to 1 wouldn't be bad if it's dynamis currency to dynamis currency and I would support something like this.

    I can't wait for this to be implemented and then all but one kind of currency dries up when people convert their currency to the one that is selling better and for more.

    just because I said people are too gil centric doesn't mean nobody does it.... just not something to rely on. Play ffxiv sometime to really understand what I mean. Crafters don't really craft for profit and filling the market with gear. They max out crafts for themselves even though the game is dependent on crafters.

    Also there is already a few exchanges such as imp coins, and now the seals. So this idea already works just need to make an npc.
    And last I seen people barely do dynamis... or i rarely see anyone enter them. maybe 1 person every few weeks. Idk if it increased since I was a way. But Anyway... Instead of making urself look bad... ask what i mean, then take it for face value. Just cuz i said ppl are gil centric (which they are) doesn't mean i said "no body every trades for currency" just at times ppl would rather sell currency they have to buy currency they need.

    Thats the dumbest thing I've heard all day. All currency prices would be exactly the same, because you could trade any of it for other. None of them would be more expensive. And even if there was only 1 type of currency for sale, you could exchange it for the others anyway.
