    But they didn't kill it entirely. You can still sell blinkers to NPC's, but at a vastly reduced rate. You can still make gil, just not as fast as before.

    Yes Louisville, KY, I know you very well. I told you all of that regardless, because you obviously aren't paying any attention to the prices at all if you actually believe what you're saying here.

    A lot of people are wrong, and so are you. Prices dropped when people started spamming Dynamis, before cruor farming became popular. When I completed my Mandau, I paid 5.5k per Whiteshell, now they're back up to 7k. People are even shouting for 9.5k bronzepieces, and I remember buying them for under 7k. Even VW items went back up. People thought Heka's cells would fall, but they're up to 4M each again (after being under 3M for a while). Comeatmebro and his mules bought Coruscanti cells for up to 15M. Where do you think their money came from? Could your VW money afford that? Because their mulefest in Abyssea - Misareaux could afford several of those cells every day. That's a prime example of someone getting something you can't in this economy, because to them money means nothing. To you it does, obviously.

    What, you thought no one would see through your motives?
    I never farmed Dynamis and I never intend to, because I hate boring grinds.

    All affirmations are true in some sense, false in some sense, meaningless in some sense, true and false in some sense, true and meaningless in some sense, false and meaningless in some sense, and true and false and meaningless in some sense.

    But if the conversion rate is.. it was like 2.555 pre-nerf, I think. What is it now, 1 cruor = .63 gil? I don't know.

    If the conversion rate is say, 1/5 of what it used to be, that would mean you need 5 times as much cruor to get the same amount of gil you used to make from X amount of blinker stacks. That makes it a lot more time consuming.. and probably pointless.

    I wish SE knew how to run their own game, lol. Kinda happy I'm on break from this game.

    In this particular case, SE does know how to run their own game. You should post in a different thread if you want to talk about poor decisions. Don't worry, there are plenty to choose from, but this is not one of them.

    What do you mean by not access to? Did you not install the second expansion?

    In that case, does that mean your almace is still level 80?

    I never did the quest to get access to the option to get blinders.

    And no. It's level 85.

    I never did that quest either, still had access to them. Even if I'm wrong, it's not too late to do the quest.
