67 Gil Chocobo Blinkers seriously?

[Return1]

Love the idiots who think this was aimed at RMT instead of Economic regulation.

Love how idiots think this is the first time npcing has been nerfed.

Love the idiots pretending it's the end of the world when they know in a few months something will be implemented that sells just like Blinkers, and no one will care about said blinkers.

Love how idiots think this won't affect them.

Cant speak for other servers. but even with major gil influx on sylph, most products remained reasonable prices and sold well, economy was fairly stable over here.

I have seen no problems on Phoenix with anything except I was making money & was content with making what progress I could.

This makes me sad. Learned a little bit reading this thread about how our ingame economy works. Just SE, give us a decent way of making gil and please from now on, think about how it will effect us. You already knew things like mass killing existed. You could have started off by making only the red monster give experience(should have done this over a year ago when cleaving RMT's started). Remake how you could obtain chocobo blinkers. Like make it so you need to do a mission in sea or some crap. That would make it very lengthy for RMT to get to the damn quest. Put better items on the auction house. I miss the days where you could wear very good gear if you had the gil for it. Now it's all about the voidwatch drops or nyzle isle drops. HELP CRAFTERS. More higher end gear will be put on the auction house if people can afford to make it, or even attempt to make it(this is mainly my point with ammunition).
On a side note, make cruor convertable to voidwatch stones, even if each stone costs 30k cruor or something. That would help people's voidstones stocks greatly. No one wants to pay 120k to do an event where there return will be 20-30k gil 95% of the time....

Give it a month or two.

"Give us a way of making gil." What? 2M daily in Dynamis isn't enough? 4M daily with both Dynamis and Salvage isn't enough?

People seem to misunderstand what "making gil" is, especially the "making" part. Dynamis and Salvage and even FC parties are great because they don't create any new gil, but just shift the gil within the economy around. The same isn't true for cruor. Cruor actually "made" gil, out of nothing. In regulated amounts, this is good and productive, if the player population supports it. The only reason some people didn't notice the influx of money reflect badly on their own gameplay was because the player population went up significantly after the SoA announcements, so there were people ready to consume all that money. As soon as that would have calmed down, you would notice it tremendously, because the supply would be going down, because less people are doing relevant content, while the money keeps going up, and we'd end up in the same crapper we've been a few years ago when people were asking 100M for a Thief's Knife and not getting laughed at for being retarded.

Tl;dr it's a very bad thing if everyone can afford everything, regardless of how good it sounds in your head.

That's cool and all, but most people bought bazaared items with cruor gil, so it's quite possible sales will suffer as a result. We can't all be sellers; who would be buying at that point?

[Kriegsgott]

Good Job SE! finally something you did right!

[Mefuki]

I think most of us can agree that this was a change that had to be made to stem the tide of inflation. Still, I wish SE could be a little more...I don't know, tactful with these sorts of changes. Sort of let people down easy.

[Mirage]

And as we have to sell things for less, the things we buy will start costing proportionally less too.

We might have "felt" rich with all the cruor gil, but the fact is that unless you're one of those few who generated the highest amounts of gil from cruor, your relative wealth was constantly decreasing, even if your gil-figure in the game was rising.
